Lovely Leon staff at Manchester, including Errol, Chris and the team make your experience warm and welcoming.
The range on food on offer is impressive such as a vegan Love burger with vegan cheese that can also be made gluten free. A Korean chicken burger again with the Gluten free option. Why not add on a side of lush Leon baked fries. There’s also a huge range of sauces so you can get a bit dippy!
Go from train to room in record time, as the hotel is just a few minute’s walk from Manchester Piccadilly train station.
Synonymous with the welcome on arrival, the room was just as warm and wonderful. A cosy home away from home, with a super snug Sweet Dreams® bed, flat screen TV, Complimentary wifi, mineral water and sky sports channels.
Situated inside the historic Free Trade Hall, the hotel is steeped in historic charm and elegance, as one of the city’s most iconic buildings.
The reception area boasts a beautiful crystal chandelier, as its signature centrepiece. Along with the Christmas tree, sophisticatedly decorated, providing that home away from home feel.
Since the extensive refit, the interiors now have a fantastic and fabulous fresh look.
Clean, contemporary lines with amazing artwork, lighting, planting and subtle subdue shades, creates a relaxed and refreshed vibe.
The name Cottonopolis, that means a metropolis focused on cotton trading that serviced the cotton mills, has been inspired by Manchester’s historical past, as the international centre of the cotton trade during the 19th century. This too is reflected in the choice of bespoke décor which combines traditional with the contemporary while remaining sympathetic to the buildings original features.
Exposed brick work, industrial chain features, cast iron columns, plush tan leather seating & booths, original floorboards, cool copper light fittings which add warmth along with the natural light. A cool, chic and classy grown up hub to hang out in and the open kitchen created a calm yet buzzing hive of activity. Owner and architect Nick Muir really has done an outstanding job.
