Roomzzz Victoria, Manchester
Roomzzz Manchester Victoria offers a unique stay inside the iconic, Grade II-listed Corn Exchange. Originally built in the late 19th century as a trading hub for corn and grain, the stunning building has been beautifully repurposed. Its architecture remains a standout feature, blending historical Edwardian character with modern, stylish apartment living.
The hotel’s design is a real highlight, with rooms ranging from smart studios to opulent penthouse suites. Some of these suites are particularly special, featuring their own private turrets and panoramic city views. Each apartment is fully equipped with a kitchenette, making it a perfect spot for travelers who want the flexibility of self-catering while enjoying the comforts of a boutique hotel.
Location-wise, you couldn’t ask for a more central base. The building itself is packed with over a dozen independent restaurants, meaning you have endless dining options just an elevator ride away. Whether you are craving vibrant street food or a sit-down meal, the surrounding area is a foodie’s paradise.
Stepping outside, you are at the heart of the city’s action. The Manchester Arndale shopping centre is right across the road, and the historic Manchester Cathedral is just a short stroll away. With the AO Arena and Victoria Station nearby, it is an incredibly convenient spot for anyone visiting for concerts, shopping, or exploring the city’s rich cultural landmarks.

Fabulous hotel, amazing room, great location especially for the AO Arena, will defo visit again!
Beautiful room, wasnt expecting a full kitchen! Lovely big bed, big tv and a sofa. Nice views to.
Unfortunately at check in the girl on the desk tried charging me x3 different prices despite me having a booking confirmation for a lower amount. In the end my reservation price was honoured.

Great stay in a brilliant location
Friendly staff, great location and a good room. The room itself is nice and spacious, plenty of space especially for the price range. I'll be returning.
No major issues at all, it took us a while to find out room due to the layout but that was it really.

Lovely stay, comfortable and convenient.
The facilities and restaurants within the Corn Exchange were lovely. Having discounts at restaurants was a very nice touch! Conveniently located for the city centre too.
We honestly had a lovely time. Nothing more to say really! Thanks again.

Great centrally located and parking was easy in the Q Park close by.
It was a little smaller than I expected but perfectly clean and adequate although a couch instead instead of two chairs may have been nice for relaxing. There was no view from the window window except for a roofing and other windows. I didn’t use the fitness Centre as I only stayed overnight, but for our purposes, it was brilliant really close to the AO Arena, which is why we booked

Perfect point to explore Manchester.
The Roomzzz at Manchester Victoria was perfectly situated for our exploration of Manchester. Plus our room was on the Fennel Street side of The Corn Exchange over looking Cathedral Gardens, so quiet with a nice view. The entire hotel is meticulously clean, the showers hot and the staff helpful. The bonus is the hot chocolate machine by reception. Also the Number 2 free bus from Manchester Piccadilly Station will drop you off or pick you up at the corner of Corporation Drive and Withy Grove across the road from The Corn Exchange.
Our bed was placed parallel and against the window wall so my wife had to climb over me to get out of bed. Also the hall is not a complete triangle and we were at the furthest point from reception.

Would stay again definitely.
Location, ambiance. The choice to be self catering was fabulous.
It was generally quiet in room 133.
Tha City View of historical and new builds was very interesting.
Sorry I didn’t take photos on this busy trip.
The full length mirror was in an unusable position. And dressing table impractical.

Brilliant apartment hotel in the heart of Manchester, friendly staff and well equipped
Brilliant apartment hotel, spotless rooms, warm welcome and the gym is fantastic as well (and hardly used!), right in the heart in the Northern Quarter near shops and restaurants.

Great location, great apartment and facilities
Good quality furniture and fittings. Very clean throughout and a very comfortable bed. Great shower and loved the fact that by paying an extra £10 we could have extended the check out time.
I wish I'd known about the extended checkout before I arrived because we made plans around having to leave at 11am on Sunday.

This place over a standard hotel any day! Loved it!
Great room, great views of the city, 10/10 location, and LOVED the heated floors in the bathroom.
It was great having plates, cutlery, and pots for cooking, but just wished there were cooking basics like oil, salt, pepper. We also wished we could connect our phones to the TV for streaming.

Fantastic location for centre of town.
Superb location. Great room, clean and comfortable with great facilities

Excellent. Would stay again!
Location to Manchester Victoria train station superb (5mins walk) and right in centre of Corn Exchange.
Staff friendly. Cost reasonable. Apartment spacious and well-equipped. Hotel looked fantastic!
The bathroom, unfortunately, smelled like it had drainage/damp issues. Hopefully, this can be solved. (Room 302). We left to catch a very early train, otherwise would have told staff about this.

Great city centre venue, lots of shops nearby and the room has you you need for a stay.
Always welcoming, the apartments have all that you need in them and very clean and tidy
Not a fan of the massive TV at the end of the bed personally! But that's a small bugbear - I al tall so like to stretch my feet off a bed sometimes!

If you want a quiet space in a busy city- then book this!
It is in a great location which is literally minutes walk from Victoria Station and in a beautiful listed building. Bus and tram routes nearby. Shops and restaurants nearby. Despite where it is, it is quiet indoors. The preserved tiles and stair wells were a delight to see. The room was well appointed. A really comfortable bed which I slept well in. Clean. Strong internet. Grab and Go breakfast was handy too. You can also leave luggage safely when departing, before a train journey. Pleasant and helpful staff.
Instructions for the air conditioner as it was noisy first night until I found a way to turn it down. Not being able to open a window just for fresh air at times.

This hotel was such a pleasant surprise.
This hotel was such a pleasant surprise. First time in Manchester from London and we chose this hotel due to the location.
It did not let us down, the room is super spacious and has everything you need from microwave, hob, full size mirror! The team was also super nice, Olivia was a delight! And we were able to extend our check out time which was perfect. Will definitely be back.

Spacious, well located, and good value
The location is excellent, and the studio was very spacious with all the amenities you could need. It looked exactly like the photos.
The complimentary croissants at breakfast were a lovely added touch.
Staff could have been a bit more welcoming.
Parking is a bit expensive, and there is a cheaper option about an 8-minute walk (though it’s at your own risk).

A perfect little get away to see family and friends for big birthday events.
Perfect location
Very comfy bed
Everything we needed

Can’t be beaten on value for money
Friendly reception staff made us feel welcome, pastries for breakfast, room was a good size with a nice shower and a coffee and tea making kit. The little extra space in the room meant I wasn’t trapped once my little one had gone to sleep.
The room itself was immaculately clean and the whole hotel was nicely presented. The hotel is in a great location but you wouldn’t know that from how quiet a night’s sleep we got.
Nothing.

Had an amazing time we will be back.
The location is unbelievable and modern with an old fashioned feel
No actual bar but so many about your spoilt really. Tv stopped working and mattress a little hard

Great experience, I’d happily stay again but if it were for more than a couple of nights I may treat myself to a larger
Fantastic location, room was exceptionally clean and comfortable. All members of staff I dealt with were very helpful.
Only drawbacks were the bathroom was very small, not a lot of space for clothes either.

Great location, good price, clean and friendly - would highly recommend
Just amazing and the perfect location - the hob didnt work but to be fair we didnt need it so it doesnt matter.
Fix the hob that was it
