ABode Hotel, Manchester

107 Piccadilly, Manchester, M1 2DB, United Kingdom. (show on map)

Expert reviews

Lonely Planet review:

“The original fittings at this converted textile factory have been combined successfully with 61 bedrooms divided into four categories of ever-increasing luxury: Comfortable, Desirable, Enviable and Fabulous on Fifth, the latter being five seriously swanky top-floor suites.”

Telegraph review:

“ABode Manchester, set in a striking 19th-century former textile warehouse, is just a two-minute walk from Piccadilly railway station. Original features such as parquet flooring and metal columns combine with quirky décor to create a stylish retreat, while a decent food and drink offering makes staying in an option.”

What guests liked

All you need to know

Comprising 61 rooms, ABode Manchester boasts stylish accommodations in a Victorian warehouse building. While the exterior of this structure looks historic and vintage, the interior has been refurbished with chic and contemporary design while still maintaining a few of the old-timey elements. You will notice intricate craftsmanship, a vintage staircase, and grandiose chandeliers throughout the building.

Choose from three basic rooms: Comfortable, Desirable, and Enviable. All of these rooms come with beautiful design elements, like crown molding, high ceilings, wood floors, and lovely window treatments. Each bathroom features colorful and unique tiling, along with standing glass showers. Enjoy walk-in showers, luxury bedding, and climate control, but upgrade to the Enviable room for a separate living area.

This property also has higher-tier rooms that feel like mini-apartments, all individually designed to create one-of-a-kind experiences. Guests can enjoy extra room and charming quirks, like spiral staircases and skylights, in these upgraded spaces.

You can have breakfast for an additional fee at Brasserie Abode, with menu items ranging from fresh pastries to a full English breakfast. Order in-room cocktails from the bar menu for a fun night indoors.

Right across from Piccadilly Station, and only a few minutes’ walk to the Northern Quarter, ABode Manchester offers an incredibly central location, perfect for sightseeing and exploring.

Average.

The hotel is nicely decorated and the rooms are very spacious.

There is no insonorisation in this hotel. You can hear a loud noise every time someone opens or closes a door. And I could hear the neighbors…also, the coffee machine was broken at breakfast.

Love this hotel, great service, great rooms, beautiful building. Perfect location

I love this hotel, location, beautiful building, lovely rooms and fabulous staff.

The room was so warm, couldn’t change the temperature. Couldn’t complain since it was so cold outside. We also had a drip through the ceiling in the bathroom which woke us up and as it was through the light fitting we couldn’t shower before we left. Again not a huge complaint as I love this hotel.

Bed was massive and very comfortable.

Sadly the poor or old windows in the building meant our nights sleep was often disturbed by the noise of the city outside the building.

1st time staying as a solo female traveller.

The shower was great and the bed was super comfy. The breakfast at the property was great.

The noise from both i side and outside the room as there was no sound proofing and the room didnt have a deadlock. As a solo female traveller that didnt make me feel too safe.

Gorgeous rooms great size for city centre.

The hotel was very quiet as it was January we got two rooms for a great price the lady on the front desk was nice . The only issue was the rooms were far too hot I think they were having air con problems so will check before we book it again . They did put a fan in the rooms but not much use .

Just the heat in the bedrooms

Excellent across the board.

Had a fantastic first stay at Abode. The rooms were really large and very comfortable, staff very welcoming, whole place very smart. Will definitely return.

There is no car park, but they recommended CitiParks, which is a few strides away, and there was a discount for that, so it worked out fairly reasonable.

Good. Used to be great.

Awesome location. Friendly staff. Comfortable and quiet room.

Our room looked tired. Radiators weren’t working properly so staff had to bring oil filled radiators to heat the room. Bathroom floor wasn’t clean in the corners. Took a while for the kettle to work. Bar was understaffed.

Chic, city stay!

Glorious old building bursting with character. Even a standard room felt huge due to the high ceilings. Mid century, charming furnishings with a lofty modern twist; including two comfy chairs and a table aswell as the standard desk etc. A speaker for music in the room was an awesome touch. ACTUAL MUGS and not paper cups. Beautifully clean throughout. Staff were helpful, friendly and organised a room on a higher floor as per our request (the first time a hotel has actually been able to accommodate this for us in a long time!)

Extremely menial things such as: The TV being a little outdated (poor picture and sound) and the soaps were very strong smelling (all with sage which was a bit unpleasant), neither thing affected our stay.

Well located interesting historic building

It's well located very close to Piccadilly Station. The stairwell shows the history and beauty of the building. The beds are very comfortable. Very clean room.

Even with the radiators turned off the room was too hot to sleep, which spoilt the stay unfortunately.

Comfortable perfect for a family I’m sure the when it’s not Christmas Eve there is more on offer

I loved the angel suite decor throughout was beautiful and the beds was comfortable and clean

I found some sort of pill on the floor it must have been missed as it was dark green so blended with the carpet. But obviously staying with small children that put anything in their mouths it worried me. I scanned the room to see if there was anymore but it was clear. Would have been nice to have room service as because it being Christmas the brasserie was only us at breakfast.

Great location and comfortable stay

Great location but felt overpriced.

The property is in a great location, the room was incredibly spacious and the bed was very comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful and can’t fault their service.

The pictures did make it look a nicer than it was in person, we found the facilities to be a bit out of date such as the TV and some of the fixtures were a little tired where parts of the room had been updated but older things hadn’t been replaced. The room would have benefitted from some warmer lighting (and more of it) as the bedside lamps were bright white and the only other lamp in the room didn’t light up the space. Overall it just felt a little overpriced for what we got.

Lovely room pleasant staff we are coming back on the 10 th January!

We’ve stayed here before it’s a great location

The only problem that I would say was that there was a lack of staff making things take a lot longer . Not that much choice on the brassiere menu either although the food we had was nice .

Good location and a hotel with dome character.

The location is great, a few minutes walk from Piccadilly station. It is also a building with character (take the stairs rather than the elevator and you’ll see). Plus the hotel restaurant is not bad at all.

There wasn’t anything I didn’t like.

Lovely breakfast, great location and excellent staff and service customer service.

Thought the room would have been a little bigger, hand soap provided smelt awful, maybe one more floral and not with sage in it would be nice. Only one set of towels provided for a couple staying.

Nice but cold

Amazing staff super attentive, room was designed well and cool!

My room was very cold (winter time) and I didn’t have controls to fix it. I realize I could have called but since I was in and it out late and early it didn’t seem worth the trouble. The coffee machine was also broken after 3 attempts which wasn’t great for my morning work prep either.

Comfortable stay in city centre location with spacious room, friendly team and great breakfast

Everything about the hotel was pretty much as presented via website and pictures so met expectations. Room was much bigger than most "new" hotels in the city centre plus a bright light in the middle of the ceiling which is almost unheard of in other hotels. Staff on reception and at breakfast were all friendly and helpful and there's clearly a chef who knows what they're doing when it comes to a full English breakfast!

Nothing, all good.
