The Lowry Hotel, Manchester

50 Dearmans Place, Chapel Wharf, Salford, Manchester, M3 5LH, United Kingdom. (show on map)

Expert reviews

Lonely Planet review:

“Visiting rock stars and luxury hunters tend to favour this modern, five-star hotel (not to be confused with the arts centre in Salford Quays), where the fabulous bedrooms have enormous beds and ergonomically designed furniture.”

Telegraph review:

“Like a true Mancunian, this five-star hotel is showy without being pretentious and fiercely proud of its roots. Huge stylish rooms, floor-to-ceiling windows and attentive service keep guests coming back for more, while art exhibitions, a spa and people-watching opportunities make it an enjoyable place to linger.”

What guests liked

All you need to know

The Lowry Hotel is a luxurious and modern hotel situated on the banks of the River Irwell. This high-rise building is a key component of Manchester’s skyline, and its all-glass appearance makes it impossible to miss. With an ultra-chic foyer, complete with massive ceilings, tons of space, contemporary lighting, and clean lines, this space encapsulates the atmosphere of the entire hotel.

Choose from five different spacious floor plans: deluxe king double, superior king double, a suite with a river view, executive king, or a junior suite. You will have floor-to-ceiling windows, comfortable beds, iPod docks, plush furniture, and plenty of space no matter which room you choose. The private bathrooms feel extra luxurious with marble floors and walls, glass standing showers, and soft bathrobes.

Relax for a day at the hotel spa, which has five treatment rooms, including a relaxation room, a couples room, a sauna, a gym, and a hair salon. Dine at the onsite River Restaurant, serving a variety of chicken, fish, and beef. Next to the restaurant, you’ll find a lovely cocktail bar boasting great drinks and live music. Along the side of the Chapel Wharf building, step out onto the large terrace that showcases dazzling city views.

The People’s History Museum and the Manchester Cathedral are only a five-minute walk from this hotel, making this an extremely convenient location in Manchester.

Excellent. Met all our crucial needs. Couldn’t ask for more. Kudos to Pradeesh Kumar, Sherman, Luke

The staff were amazing. Very friendly, very helpful, always available to assist.

Limited menu in the restaurant. We stayed for a total of nine nights, so the limited menu in the one restaurant got tired after a while.

Great Hotel & Staff

Fantastic hotel room, great front of house staff.

The only reason it’s marked down from a perfect stay is the response to my wife’s nut allergy. This should’ve been handled differently initially, but again the staff were amazing in resolving any concerns.

Lovely stay

Absolutely loved the hotel, very spacious and was in a perfect location, everything close by, has parking outside the hotel aswell which was really convenient. Everything was smooth, comfortable and clean.

Loved everything, no issues however certain staff were really rude and treated us poorly, one of the receptionist we spoke to when we had an inquiry first said “yh mate what can I do” not even a hello or how can I help. So some could do with manners but the Arab/moroccan receptionist was really nice.

Frequent visitors that enjoy the high standard of customer service maintained by staff at the Lowry

Room had lovely view of river, bed very comfortable. All amenities worked well. Concierge in morning was very helpful and remembered us from previous visits.

Pressure of water in shower was low. Fridge wouldn't open for us to put our milk in, had to phone down. Charged for upgrade despite being pretty regular guests.
