Living at The Green Rooms is better than I possibly imagined. It meets all of my requirements as it’s a social building full of lovely residents, managers who are always on stand bye to greet you and support, plus full of gorgeous pets! It has a lot to offer with communal areas, conference room, onsite gym, concierge (so you never have to miss a parcel) and a coffee machine. It is also a peaceful and relaxing development where you can have your space and enjoy incredible views of the Quays. When I’m on my balcony I often feel transported far away like I’m on holiday with a sea view 🙂 I couldn’t ask for more for a home and I can’t envisage ever wanting to move.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
The location at Media City is perfect for me with my work near by, several restaurants and bars, plus supermarkets and gyms. I love being next to the water on the Quays. I’ve lived here 9 months and I’m still not board of the view.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Parking is probably the only issue and with multi story car parks being built near by- this could bring both pro’s and cons.
If there is one thing you would change about your flat or property what would it be:
I can not think of anything which would improve it. The development is always clean, tidy, well managed and friendly. Our three bedroom corner apartment has everything we need: lovely modern kitchen including dishwasher, modern bathrooms, perfect bedrooms, great king size beds, fabulous wrap round balcony. It is perfect temperature- not too hot or cold. The apartment was fully furnished with brand new lovely furnishings. I can not think of anything else we need.

My favourite place I’ve ever lived in
I love how modern it is with the balcony being perfect for lockdown too. Downstairs gym is great as it’s 24 hours and any problems I have had have been dealt with quickly. I feel like we are a little community and have chats with residents who also live here.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
It’s very beautiful place to live especially at night, you do feel very safe here shops and transport nearby.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
If you don’t own a car it can be tricky to get shopping but is easily solved by using delivery.
What is the best feature of your home:
How big the bathroom and bath is. It’s great to just to have that chill out time after work.

Luxury Living in Media City
The team at The Green Rooms have really thought of most things, from free coffee in reception through to the bookable meeting room when you need somewhere distraction free to get some work done. The overall look and feel of the apartments is 1st class with modern furniture that is on-trend but feels built to last. The on-site gym has enough equipment for a good workout but would benefit from a few pieces to help with “leg day”.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
A lovely neighbourhood close to a tram stop with nice local restaurants, great coffee shops and plenty of open space to walk the dog.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
All of the apartments are fitted with LED downlighters that are really bright – you can’t swap these for smart controlled or dimmable lights so we had to buy a few lamps so we could create a cosy atmosphere in the lounge and bedroom.
What is the best feature of your home:
Without a doubt the best feature in our home is our wrap-around balcony on the waterfront. Can’t wait to be able to get friends over and socialise together and watch the sunset.

Hi Phil,
Thank you for your 5 star review of The Green Rooms, it really does mean a lot to the whole team! We are so glad you like the look and feel of the apartments!
Thank you for the feedback, we are always looking for ways to improve and this is really useful. Hopefully once social distancing restrictions are lifted we can get some more equipment into the gym.
Thank you once again from The Green Rooms team!
Everything you could ask for
The design is bright and clean with everything you could ask for. The communal areas downstairs make it easy to meet people and the lobby when you first come in is warm and inviting. The people on the main desk have been excellent in making us feel welcome and settled.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Love the water and how close everything is.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The inside gets quite hot so having a window open at all times is advised.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
We are yet to raise a problem but I’m confident they would be able to handle it correctly.

Thank you once again from The Green Rooms Team
Lovely modern apartment development
Beautifully-designed property with modern, minimal, furnished flats. Fantastic facilities such as an on-site gym and a communal lounge with a meeting room available for hire. A spotless building with friendly and accessible management and a community feel.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Great transport links (metrolink), numerous restaurants and shops.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
It is a VERY warm, VERY well-insulated building. Pro: low energy costs Con: hard to sleep without a window open, which does increase noise a little.
If there is one thing you would change about your flat or property what would it be:
It would be nice to have a larger sink/draining board area,

Thank you for your feedback and we have taken this on board. Just think of the savings during these cold winter months!
Thank you again from everyone at The Green Rooms
The best place to live on the quays
Delaney, Avril and Jess are the loveliest team! Always so friendly and make sure they can do everything possible to make sure everything is okay for us as tenants. The moving in process was smooth and safe, and we didn’t feel wary of Covid due to the precautions they had set out. The building is well kept and our home is exactly what we would like! Having lived in a few areas around Salford Quays and media city I can safely say this is the best place I’ve lived.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Brilliant area, so close to coffee shops and a supermarket, prime location on the waterfront which offers fab views.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The balcony wasn’t as windy as expected in an area as breezy as the quays. We were able to safely view the property during covid, with good precautions in place and the move was extremely smooth which at such an uncertain time put us at ease!
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Had a few unavoidable maintenance issues, but only what can be expected of a brand new building where there is the odd technical fault! Other issues setting up Sky but the team always respond well and help as best they can.
Manager Response
Hi Katie,
Thank you so much for your lovely 5 star review! We are so glad that the move in process ran smoothly despite the uncertain times during Covid!
I’m so happy to here that this is the best place you have lived in the area!

Green Rooms Review
The team at Green Rooms have been great throughout our continued residency. Delaney, Avril and Jess have in particularly been great with us at multiple points during our stay. The facilities are fantastic, from the on-site gym to the common room, everything is well maintained and kept on top on. The free coffee machine is also a personal favourite of mine.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
The area is a great spot for a number of factors. There are a number of local supermarkets within walking distance in the area; ‘Booths’ in particular has a great selection of continental food ingredients, locally produced craft beers and world wines. The heart of MediaCity itself also has a great selection of bars and restaurants, as well as the seasonal gardens which host different events throughout the year. The current ‘box on the docks’ theme is a personal favourite of mine. About a 5-10 minute walk away you’ll find the Lowry Shopping Outlet which houses several big named outlet stores, whilst also being home to quite a few restaurants and bars itself. Further entertainment can be found in the area with Vue Cinemas (also located in the Lowry Outlet), The Lowry Playhouse, Salford Quays Watersports Centre and several more establishments.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Maybe not one thing I wish I would’ve known, but something I’m looking forward to or keen to get in the building is a pool table or some sort of recreational activity in the common room.
What is the best feature of your home:
Our balcony is the best in the building. No doubt, I will defend my corner.
Manager Response
Hi Nathan
Thanks for the lovely feedback, so glad you are enjoying the facilities and location on The Green Rooms, we think it is perfect being next to the Manchester Ship Canal in Media City.
Don’t want to spoil anything but we have not yet finished, designing and installing all items in the gallery.
Many thanks again from all of us at The Green Rooms
Green Rooms review
Management are super friendly, there is a facebook page to keep everyone in the loop with what is going on. There is a gym and a communal area which is great – especially for working from home. Everything is kept very clean. The building feels very safe and secure. Great views and locations and inside the flats are very smart and modern.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Great transport – tram stop 2 minutes away. Really safe area. Shops and cafe 2 minutes away. Bars and restaurants 2 minutes away. Gym 5 minutes away. Everything you could need in a short walking distance without being as busy as the town centre.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
There is a gym in the building – so no need to join a gym you have to pay for!
What is the best feature of your home:
The balcony – great views and very spacious. Lovely outdoor space. Ensuite bathroom is also fantastic.

Love the Green Rooms
Awesome place to live. The apartment has great views and is beautifully furnished. The facilities are also great with a gym and social room. The staff is always helpful and great with communicating with everyone. Wouldn’t want to live elsewhere.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Media city is a great place to live. Loads of bars and restaurants around as well as plenty of events on weekends. Tram is only 5mins away.
