The Lowry Hotel, Manchester
More photosExpert reviews
“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.”
“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.”

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.

Pretty good would stay again
Staff were amazing and friendly, massage that me and my husband had was amazing. The food was good… but only complaint that I have is that during the evening our full electric went out… phoned reception and they said it was a technical error and would be resolved soon. It taken several hours to come back on, while in the meantime my husband banged his knee on the bed buffet going to the toilet

Beautiful hotel
Welcoming staff,great location,beautiful rooms and a very comfortable bed,extremely clean. Got upgraded too which was a lovely surprise.
The only 2 little criticism i have,i understand that charging to park cars overnight is the norm,but at £30 for for the day, i do find it a bit expensive when youve already spent to stay and possibly eat at the hotel. Also had room service,to which the order was wrong,got it replaced only to be slightly warm and my chips had gone cold. Nothing major,wouldnt put me off staying here again though

The Guardian + 1 more“Its own way this boutique hotel is doing something that feels fresh and honest, true to the Northern Quarter’s historic zest for originality. In the wider context of Manchester city centre, which lacks interesting, independent stays, it is a find.”
ABode Hotel, Manchester
Lonely Planet + 1 more“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.”
The Edwardian Hotel, Manchester
Fodors + 2 more“In the heart of the city, this elegant option invites you to unwind with its atmospheric spa (complete with a urban subterranean swimming pool, sauna, steam rooms and cutting-edge gym), luxurious afternoon teas, and memorable dining including contemporary Japanese and Mexican small plates in Peter Street Kitchen.”
Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Manchester.
King Street Townhouse, Manchester
Telegraph + 1 more“You’ll instantly feel relaxed in King Street Townhouse, a charming 40-room boutique hotel. From its infinity spa-pool with a spectacular view of the Town Hall clock, and stylish public areas, to bedrooms you’ll struggle to leave, this is an indulgent retreat in the city centre.”
