A Suite City Escape at The Kimpton Clocktower Hotel Manchester #Gifted

The Kimpton Clocktower Hotel Manchester Manchester is a lovely luxury hotel with industrial glamour in the heart of Manchester city centre.

The stunning terracotta grade II listed building dates back to 1890 when the building first opened as The Refuge Assurance Company headquarters.

The Victorian architecture, with a mix of a neutral and warm colour palate with many of the original features and columns still in place, provides a stunning setting for an exquisite and epic Manchester stay.

The moment you step through the doors you are literally welcomed with open arms and the friendliness and warmth instantly makes you feel at home.

Both Sally who checked us in and Dave from guest relations really made an instant impression – authentic Northern friendly vibes and loveliness just what you need after a long travel!

The hotel offers a range of accommodations including their stunning signature suites which are the perfect way to enjoy a Suite Manchester city escape in style.

Our suite was wonderful, the sympathetic renovation marries a mix of contemporary and traditional extremely well, and even offered not one but two cosy snug beds…I mean how dreamy!  Oh and how handy is the huge mirror perfect when you want to get ready for an evening out in Manchester.  

Beautiful bathroom with a roll top bath, enclosed power shower, incense sticks which smelt sensational and some divine toiletries for you to use complimentary throughout your stay.

The suite has carefully been designed and crafted to ensure that guests want for nothing.  Details such as the plush cushions with the beautiful Bee logo embossed onto the fabrics do not go unnoticed. There is even a tuck box with a range of complimentary treats and goodies for you to scoff at your leisure.

The lovely lounge area is jam packed with loveliness including a snug sofa, relaxer chair, cool record player, even cooler Manchester themed mini bar and a vintage dialler telephone which is perfect to order that relaxed room service breakfast which included continental buffet and speciality cook to order options.

Now, where to go for some fabulous food and drinks well you are covered as The Refuge is a superb onsite restaurant with all you need to get well fed and watered.  

The vibe is all about being relaxed, come as you are and just be you and enjoy yourself.  Every single team member was amazing throughout, and this is exactly what makes an evening extra special.

The Refuge has an extensive drinks menu including champagne, beers, spirits and of course their handcrafted cocktails, the excellent Expresso Marmalade Martini and their stunning Margarita, both mixed to perfection.

The food offerings began with some nibbles for the table including sour dough bread, pitta, dips, hummus and olives all super yummy.

The superb signature small plates are delicious and all amazing, but our favourites included the sea trout, prawns and the beautiful burrata.

Ready for a Manchester Suite city escape well get yourself booked into The Kimpton Clocktower Hotel Manchester and the team will be waiting your arrival to welcome you with genuine warmth, signature service, superb suites and fabulous food and drinks…so what are you waiting for!?
