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.

Hotel was very good the Brasserie very poor.

We got an upgrade so the room was excellent - large, very clean and great value for money.

The Brasserie at Abode was very disappointing. We had evening meal and were told when we entered that they were "very busy" - there were not a lot of customers. We had a burger, which was nicely cooked but took an hour to be served! The serving staff were slow and miserable. Next day we had breakfast, as we had paid for it. The serving staff were very cheery and helpful. The food took a little while but was of poor quality. My overall marks for the hotel would have been better if it had not been for the disappointment of the Brasserie.

Location,, lovely building, rooms decor nice & spacious. Reception check in was friendly.

The restaurant breakfast was disappointing, we ordered eggs Benedict that was full of corned ham & the sauce was not what you would expect; very watery & strong flavour of vinegar.. Some of the staff seemed to be confused about serving breakfast in the order that we requested courses to be served; we thought we were in an episode t.v. series of "Faulty Towers" I would like to add, the young wait staff were our only link to normality & good at their job.

Truly enjoyed the hip, rock-n-roll era vibe overlaying the elegant Victorian building.

The room was comfy, but also had notable vintage details like the Art Nouveau stained glass windows that made it seem extra special. Staff were uniformly courteous and very helpful. We greatly enjoyed being close to the train, tram, and city centre facilities.

Fabulous 40th stay.

The room was huge and the bed was comfortable. We were upgraded on arrival and we had a birthday cake waiting for us in the room which was unexpected and a lovely touch from the staff.

Really lovely comfy but stylish room that was in a superb location

There was only one towel provided. We didn't ask for it to be rectified as we were running short on time so just used the small cafe one

Lovely stylish hotel within easy walking distance of the shops and nightlife of Manchester. With a train station and lots of bus stops in the near vicinity we were able to easily travel to the Trafford Centre and other attractions that weren't within walking distance.

Had a couple of problems with the doors when we were there but it didn't spoil our holiday.

Interesting and not the best part of Manchester to stay.

It’s a beautiful building, has great rooms, the staff were great and the Angel suite was comfortable.

The breakfast selection wasn’t great.

Good boutique hotel in the heat of Manchester

Location is great, close to shops, bars and restaurants. Local transit right outside and just around the corner from Piccadilly. Room was spacious and quiet, excellent rain forest shower. Hotel offers discounted parking rate for nearby Citipark.

Bed was a bit too soft for our liking, no fridge in the room but their 'mini bar' offered canned drinks, aircon unit is a mystery to operate, no manual available, towels were linty, TV too small for the size of the room, never seemed to have any staff available at front desk.

Good location with spacious room

Good location. Spacious room. Big comfy bed. Good shower setting that the switches are on the other side, so you wouldn’t get all wet with cold water once you switch it on. Quiet.

Was asked for card long number for deposit but wasn’t advised in advance. Got no card with me. Didn’t accept apply pay for deposit. Toilet smelled bad. Tv was very small.

Comfortable stay in historic Manchester building

The building has been well restored retaining many original features. There is a sense of history and confidence. The room was spacious and comfortable. The reception staff were helpful. The location is excellent, a short walk from Piccadilly Gardens and the main shopping areas.

We were a bit disappointed by the service in the restaurant (Bistro Abode). We went there on our first night for a cocktail/drink and we were made to feel unwelcome, as though we were disturbing the one member of staff on duty. Maybe we were as there were no other customers. Unsurprisingly, we did not return in the evenings. Breakfast was better but somehow the bistro staff seemed to lack the ability to be really welcoming and friendly.
