from Picadilly railway station Manchester. Does anyone know if the distance between the 2 places is walkable please?
I have a study day there tomorrow and the website for the Ramada says it's half a mile but is this accurate?
I don't have trouble walking but would prefer to know if I'm set for a hike.
Thanks

Thanks for the suggestion Hayley. The train arrival is a bit tight so will probably get taxi there and walk back at end of day. Would Oxford rd station be nearer?

The FREE Shuttlebus No. 1 should take you from Piccadilly down onto Deansgate and the Ramada (see website)
