Once a powerhouse of industry, Manchester was well known for its trade which is why you can’t get any more authentic than staying in a former 19th century cotton factory. These days, the industrial interiors have been given a softer touch with a pallet of subtle pinks and greens by New York design team Gryzwinski+Pons. The intelligent use of space combines functionality with style, giving you everything you need for a comfortable stay. Experience true Northern hospitality when you’re welcomed with Kinsey Apothecary toiletries and a bag full of tasty treats. Head downstairs for a drink in the Conservatory Bar or cosy up in the king-size bed and make the most of the Apple TV for a relaxing night in or take a short stroll to the city’s famous Northern Quarter full of independent bars and eateries for a great evening out. Should you need to get some work done while here, the seriously cool co-working lounge is the place to be. The reception desk staff are on hand 24/7 if you need anything during your stay, and you can also get involved in a variety of events, pop ups and fitness classes in the building so it really is everything you need, and more. Home truths: *This is a studio apartment so the bedroom is not separate *There is chargeable parking next door at the NCP, but reception can validate your ticket to give you 20% off all tariffs *This home is part of a hotel – the lobby and communal areas are shared with other guests of the building *The host has several very similar homes in the same building – the exact layout, views, and design of your home might vary slightly from the photos
