A very large railway station, well organized, you can easily reach the ticket machines by following the signs at the top, the platforms are also clear and easy to locate. Platforms 13 and 14, from which trains to the airport leave, are a bit far away, but everything is well marked and takes a few minutes. A ticket from Manchester Piccadilly station to the airport costs £4.80 on the TPE (Transpennine Express) line. You must show your purchased train ticket at every entrance and exit from the platform. Free Wi-Fi is available at the station.

Friendly staff and helpful when my train was delayed. Directions was not very clear when trying to find platform 14. Staff helped though which was very welcome

As stations go, Piccadilly is 'pretty good' with most things within easy reach. Shops, free toilets and some seating. It's possible from the door and onto a train in a few moments, which you can't say for many major stations.

Me detuve a dar un bocado después de mi larga caminata matutina. Este punto de venta tiene una ubicación fantástica justo al lado de la entrada de la estación de tren Manchester Piccadilly. Tienen algunos combos de desayuno de tazón pequeño únicos, saludables también. Pedí el huevo escalfado con aguacate 🥑 n salmón con café. Pides en la tableta y la comida está lista en 3 minutos...

Confusing signage. Platform change at the very last minute meant a mad dash up the ramp, over the bridge and down the stairs with suitcases and kids. Drop off/pick up far away from the platforms. Exhausted.

Great unless you want to use platform 13 and 14. They treat you like lowerclass citizens, infact, not even citizens, like you are on the way to prison. The people who check tickets have been rude everytime I have gone through, they treat you as if you are poor and have to use a local area train service so are not deserving of respect. Then you go to the cattle waiting area, which is basically shared with a huge toilet, and it always STINKS of feces and cleaning chemicals . The whole area is disgusting. Decided I'll never use it again and instead walk over to Victoria or walk 5 hours if need be. Not worth being treated like scum

It's a train station, not too bad as these things go. The worst bit are the useless operators who run from there - Northern and Avanti are both completely incompetent and overpriced. Closely followed by passengers who stand at the gates trying to find their tickets and hold everyone else up.

Very accessible and wheelchair friendly! This was my first time getting a train from MCR since becoming wheelchair bound so I was very nervous. I didn't need to be. The staff made it so easy! I booked Passenger Assistance via the App and then when I got to the station it was very clearly signed where I needed to go, and even if it hadn't been there were plenty of staff around to help. I was there way ahead of time to make sure all was okay but there was a very well equipped passenger assistance lounge where I could wait comfortably with some of the best disabled toilets I've seen (yep, since being in a wheelchair this has become a priority for me!). Hannah helped me onto the train, sorted a ramp and guided me to my seat, making sure I was okay and settled before getting off the train and radioing through to MK to let them know I was onboard. A pleasant and stress-free experience at the station so I will be much more confident travelling in the future. Thanks!

Taxi pick and drop off on Fairfield Street is a constant traffic jam - must be the worst layout in the country - angry traffic and lots of road rage on display - happily ignored by station management. Platforms 13 and 14 need updating and extending and can be packed at peak times. The main station concourse is too small and can get horribly packed with people - it is desperately in need of an extension to accommodate so many passengers,

I had a great experience when I was helped by two gentlemen when I missed my first train to Crewe to make a connection to go on to London. I was distraught because I needed to make my connection and this man (I wish I had gotten his name) helped me wonderfully. He told a train master for a different train to Crewe to let me on, and I am about to make my second train on time thanks to both of them. They very easily could have tried to make me buy another ticket or wait an hour for the next exact train, but they didn’t. They got me on to the train, helped me with my bags and sat me down. I have never had a public transport experience quite like it. I thank these two men, for being true gentleman and going above and beyond.

I arrived at Manchester Piccadilly station and was delighted by the modern facilities and efficient layout. This was my first time touring the railway. It was fairly simple to navigate about the station. This station was well-organised, clean, and safe. A good-sized station. The exit signs and the display boards was easily readable. The platforms was excellent sized for the services. Great glass roof. The buzy atmosphere made me excited for my trip to the city. My favourite thing about the station was how many dogs I could see coming in with their owners. In addition to the wonders of hearing people play pianos. (Things like these indicate that the place was nice). Central Manchester was easily accessible on foot.

Sat on the train having been scammed by greedy ticket operations. Please future riders, get your tickets online! Normally you'd think returns are cheaper right? Manc to Blackpool (£24) single is about £20. Manc to London is about £80 return, single about £60? Manchester airport however, £12.90 return. Single is £4.90 online. When confronted with the discrepancy, they shrug it off and say "we don't do online prices". Well no wonder people are always unhappy with rail. Get some consistency going! Station wise: lovely place. Lots of amenities.

Manchester Piccadilly Station is a bustling hub of activity, with people constantly coming and going. If you’re in the mood for some music, you’ll find two pianos where talented pianists often entertain travelers with their skills. Large information boards make it easy to navigate, displaying train schedules and other useful details. And the best part? The toilets are free to use! The station is kept tidy and comfortable by hardworking cleaning staff. Plus, it’s well-equipped with supermarkets, cafes, fast food outlet, and restaurants, so you’ve got plenty of options whether you’re after a quick bite or a leisurely meal.

We are international travelers. Today I took the National Railway to Edinburgh. The station is very large and there are some shops on the first floor. The toilet is free. It is recommended to confirm where the bus platform is before starting shopping. Our platform 14 also has signs telling passengers when to enter. Some platforms are very far away and require two escalators in between. This is a manual ticket check. There is also a World War I memorial in the middle of the platform on the first floor. The train is quite comfortable, but the noise in the carriage is quite loud. 20240803

Quite a busy station, plenty of facilities and overall impressive building with everything you could want in one place... Only drawback are the total jobs worth ticket inspectors stationed across all the platforms. I've had several interactions with these goons, they are all the same with their hand held scanners.... It's so slow and arduous getting your tickets checked here so allow extra time as and when you can! I've also heard how they spoke to a gentleman who dared to enter a platform via the 'no entry's gates (which leads onto the platform anyway) - seriously just install barriers like any normal station???

Ok train station, got some decent food and drink outlets but not much seating. Toilets are quite clean but not many of them, so can be long queues at peak times.
