First glimpse inside new Manchester hotel revealed
A highly-anticipated hotel in Manchester has revealed a first look at exactly what guests can expect when it opens its doors in the coming months.
Hampton by Hilton Manchester Northern Quarter has given potential guests a taster of the hotel’s interiors, sharing the first images of its recently completed sample room.
The £17.5million hotel, which is set to open in spring will be operated by RBH, the UK’s leading independent hotel management company. It will boast 221 bedrooms as well as meeting facilities and a fitness centre in a thriving area of the city just minutes from Manchester Arena.
Hampton by Hilton, which has more than 2,500 hotels all over the world, will make its debut in Manchester with the new opening.
Each of the sleek, stylish bedrooms spread across eight floors, will offer air conditioning, desks and 49” flat screen TVs – as well as floor-to-ceiling windows, allowing guests to enjoy the sprawling city views beyond.
All rooms have been designed for guest convenience, with the smallest details taken care of, including bedside USB charging points and the ability to create additional space by tucking away the desks provided.
Guests can enjoy a fantastic night’s sleep, with Queen-size beds for the ultimate comfort, and black-out curtains to ensure a cosy atmosphere, whether they’ve spent a day exploring the sights and sounds of the city, or a high-octane evening of live music at the nearby arena.
Louise O’Reilly, General Manager of Hampton by Hilton Manchester Northern Quarter, said:
"The reveal of our sample room marks a major milestone in the journey to opening – and means the countdown is really on. It offers a glimpse of what the hotel will offer when it opens – we love it, and we’re sure our guests will too.
We want our guests to enjoy the best of both worlds – the chance to relax and unwind, but with the best of Manchester’s bustling and bohemian Northern Quarter on their doorstep. They’ll be perfectly placed to enjoy some of the city’s key attractions, including Manchester Arena, which is just a stone’s throw away. And on return to their stylish rooms, they’ll be able to cocoon themselves in comfort and enjoy the brand’s signature service ‘Hamptonality’.”
Ashley Wykes, Director of Sales at the hotel, added:
"Our rooms are designed with our guests truly in mind, with all the little details considered. Guests can even configure their rooms to suit, by folding away desks to create more floor space.
We have interconnecting rooms available plus the option of private check-in – and even private floors for larger parties – on selected room types.”
All guests will enjoy free high-speed Wi-Fi, free breakfast and free access to the hotel’s well-equipped gym suite.
