The upscale Hilton
Manchester Deansgate occupies 23 floors of Beetham Tower, Manchester’s highest
building and one of the city’s most iconic modern landmarks. All of the 279
contemporary rooms and suites have a scenic view of the cityscape, as
does the stylish Cloud 23 bar, one of the city’s most popular nightspots. Even
the swimming pool here has a view thanks to being enclosed in glass panels. A notable
downside is the lack of free Wi-Fi access which is reserved for Hilton Hhonors
members, and only guests staying in the Executive Rooms can enjoy a free
breakfast, as well as other perks in the Executive Lounge. While this is one of
the trendiest places to stay in Manchester city center, it's more expensive
than nearby upscale hotels. It’s worth checking out more reasonably
priced options, like The Midland which occupies an elegant heritage building,
and has an impressive pool and squash court.
Scene
A classy, contemporary property with an ultra-modern atmosphere
The Hilton Manchester Deansgate is spread over
the lower 23 floors of Manchester’s 47-story Beetham Tower, which was completed
in 2006 as part of a city regeneration project, and today it's one of the city’s
best-known landmarks. This impressive skyscraper is an ultra-modern glass and
steel structure with a slim, sleek form. Part of the appeal of spending a night
here is the fabulous views over the city from the guest rooms and suites, and
of the twinkling skyline after dark. The public spaces are extremely spacious, with
ultra-high ceilings, huge windows, and giant concrete pillars in the lobby. From here, a striking spiral staircase with glass banisters winds
upward. The hallways are lined with wood paneling on the walls, and brown and
beige carpeting. The Hilton Manchester Deansgate appeals to
business and leisure travelers, but it's also very popular with partygoers who
stay here to be close to the city’s many popular nightspots.
Location
Right in the city center with excellent access to public transportation
Hilton Manchester Deansgate
is located in the center of Manchester on one of the city’s best-known and
busiest streets, home to many high-end shops and department stores, as well as
some of the city’s trendiest restaurants and bars. The area has excellent
transport links: It’s a five-minute walk to Deansgate train station and Line 2
of the free Metroshuttle bus service stops here. It’s also a five-minute walk to
Deansgate Locks, the trendy bar and club area. Manchester Airport is a
20-minute drive away or 38 minutes by train.
Rooms
Large, bright, contemporary-style guest rooms and suites
In keeping with the hotel’s
ultra-modern architecture, the guest rooms are contemporary in
style: They're spacious, uncluttered, and very bright thanks to the floor-to-ceiling
windows. The color scheme is of neutral grays and browns: Gray carpets, brown
accent walls, with an abstract artwork over the bed adding a splash of color.
Box-frame lamps and swivel armchairs add to the contemporary look. Long work desks can double as dressing tables due to built-in flip-top mirrors. And the rooms' crowning feature is clearly the sweeping city views. Bathrooms are on the smaller side, with tub and shower combos and vessel sinks. Some rooms are showing signs that a
refurbishment is overdue, like chipped furniture, stained chairs, smudged carpets, and cracked glass.All guest rooms have
flat-screen TVs, electric kettles for tea and coffee, minibars, irons and
ironing boards, and Peter Thomas Roth toiletries. The top-floor
Suites have some notable extras: sitting areas, Nespresso coffeemakers, and marble bathrooms with a second
TV plus separate tubs and showers. Guests
staying in the Suites and Executive Rooms have access to the Executive Lounge
on the 23rd floor where there’s free breakfast, snacks, and
refreshments available all day long.
Features
A pool with a view and a trendy bar on the 23rd floor
One of the most notable
features of the Hilton Manchester Deansgate is its spectacular 65-foot (20-meter) swimming pool that has glass panels showcasing views over the city.
There’s also a whirlpool, sauna and steam room, fitness room, and Claretys spa
offering beauty treatments. The popular Club 23, a trendy cocktail bar on the 23rd floor, is popular
with locals for its gorgeous views and classy setting -- for this reason tables need to be booked in advance. The
on-site Podium Restaurant and Podium Bar serve meals and refreshments
throughout the day, and there are 11 meeting rooms and event spaces in the
hotel, which can be booked for meetings and special events for up to 600 guests. And while Hilton Hhonors members get Wi-Fi for free, other guest must pay an additional fee.
