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.

Great option if you are arriving by car

We’ve stayed here many times over many years when visiting family in the area. Parking is available which is a huge bonus in Manchester City Centre. The rooms are bigger than average and are consistently well kept.

We’ve never had breakfast here as it has not been included in the room rate and very expensive. It would be fabulous if there were a least a coffee stand selling drinks and pastries/muffins in the (huge) lobby - as per American hotels. It would really be a nice touch as the nearest coffee shop/cafe is a walk over the bridge into the main shopping area.

A hotel that comes with a reputation and totally lives up to it.

Great ambience and facilities, a hotel that exudes class. Good gym, spa and excellent restaurant. The setting, looking out over the river is lovely.

5* service and best location for easy access

From the moment I arrived, the doorman was so courteous and helpful, I arrived early so was unable to check in immediately, but explained I was attending a meeting. The reception quickly took my details and luggage for storage, and advised when I returned that I could collect my room key. The Manager and all staff in the bar were wonderful and very welcoming, and the cocktails were amazing. I look forward to my return.

Comfortable, outstanding cleanliness, wonderful reception team

Reception team were friendly and efficient. Really liked the extra touch of calling the room after check in to check we were happy with the room and if we needed anything. The only thing that changed my score from a 10 to an 8 was the arrival at the restaurant for breakfast, 4 staff members walking around and we not acknowledged until the door host came from out the back. The same thing happened to another 3 guests that came in once we had been seated. It felt a little disorganised.

10/10 stay! From the staff to the room, all round perfect!

Gorgeous hotel, we was greeted by such friendly staff the minute we walked in we arrived a few hours earlier than our check in time to leave our cases whilst we waited but she was so helpful that our room was actually ready when we arrived so she sorted us to our rooms as soon as we got there, nothing seems to much trouble for them they will help with anything you need, our room was spot on, lovely view from our window, toiletries including shower caps and hair ties, robes and slippers, safety deposit box which actually works, silk hangers for delicate clothing, mini bar fully stocked with wine, cider, larger, spirits and soft drinks as well as sparkling and still waters and a snack counter fully stocked with crisps, trail mix, sweets. Nuts, honey, popcorn and chocolate, the tea and coffee that was provided too the tea was so nice, we ordered room service for our evening meal and the lady who brought the food to our room was so polite and helpful, the food was fresh and hot and tasted incredible, same vibe at checking out friendly kind and warm hospitality. Definitely recommend this hotel.

We had no dislikes about this hotel we would definitely recommend to anyone thinking of staying here and we will definitely be making this our new Manchester hotel choice.
