When it comes to
luxury, Manchester is one of the best places to stay in
the country with the wide range of deluxe accommodation
it has to offer. From stylish hotels in the city centre
and at Manchester Airport, to beautiful waterfront lodges
on The Quays, this city is the perfect place to spend
a relaxing no-expenses-spared break. If you fancy combining a slice of the city’s history with a top quality hotel then you should book a room at the famous Crowne Plaza Manchester [map], (or The Midland as it is more commonly known). This dramatic red-bricked Edwardian landmark overlooks the imposing Central Library on St Peter’s Square and offers all the comforts of a four star hotel, including the lavishly decorated Queen and Presidential suites. Another of Manchester’s four star hotels, the Portland Thistle [map] on Piccadilly Gardens, offers a classic 19th century exterior with a modern, well-designed interior. Located just five minutes from Piccadilly Station, this hotel is great for celebrity watchers as it has become a firm favourite with touring pop stars on their visit to Manchester. Other expensive hotels in the city centre include the Britannia [map], which occupies a wonderful Grade II listed building on Portland Street and has various bars and restaurants linked to it. There is also the Malmaison Hotel [map], which has brought a touch of contemporary urban living to Piccadilly with its highly distinctive and sculptured exterior. If you want to be close to Manchester’s nightlife but still enjoy the quality of a four star hotel then the Renaissance [map] is probably what you’re looking for. This trendy 15-storey hotel is perfectly placed in the heart of the city’s lively entertainment quarter, just off Deansgate and offers great views of Manchester’s skyline. For a luxury hotel with a difference why not try the Victoria and Albert [map] in Castlefield, which is situated so close to Granada Studios that it has even incorporated some of the TV company’s top programmes into its décor. Everything from Coronation Street to Cracker is celebrated on the hotel walls and each room has something extra, for example, modem data points for business clients to Playstations for tourists. If that doesn’t suit your taste, how about staying at one of Manchester’s newest and most luxurious hotels? The Lowry [map] sits next to the imposing Trinity Bridge on the banks of the River Irwell and includes the lavish Marco Pierre White restaurant, which is a popular attraction in its own right. Along with the urban chic interior, the hotel has a wide range of quality extras, including a hairdresser, 24-hour room service, computer facilities, solarium, whirlpool and a fitness club. Another deluxe waterfront hotel is the four star Copthrorne Manchester Hotel on Salford Quays, which is just two miles from the city centre. All rooms offer the latest facilities and most of the have beautiful waterside views. The hotel also has a swimming pool and sauna. If you’re staying close to Manchester Airport then there are a few luxury hotels to choose from, including the Forte Posthouse. Situated inside the airport complex, the Forte Posthouse is mainly used by business visitors, although tourists are catered for. Each room comes with an interactive TV and pay-to-view movies, while the hotel also has a swimming pool, sauna and a fitness club.
