Crowne Plaza Manchester City Centre

Stylish Comfort in Manchester's Northern Quarter

Modern and welcoming, the Crowne Plaza Manchester City Centre puts you right in the heart of the lively Northern Quarter. With individually designed rooms, a fitness suite, the Glasshouse restaurant and bar, and even a Starbucks on-site, this hotel is a perfect base for exploring Manchester’s buzzing music and nightlife scene.
Rooms come with premium beds, free WiFi, aromatherapy kits for better sleep, and sleek bathrooms with separate showers and baths—ideal for unwinding after a high-energy night out.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location, location, location! The hotel is less than a five-minute walk to Manchester Arena and other major venues, meaning you can skip the late-night taxi queues. Thanks to its robust construction and comfy beds, noise levels are minimal, offering a peaceful retreat after a show. Flexible check-in from 15:00 and a relaxed 11:00 checkout give you plenty of time to recover post-concert.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends wanting a stylish crash pad close to the action
• Solo travelers ticking off a bucket-list gig
• Couples making a weekend of it with shopping and shows
• Fans wanting a quieter place to recharge after the encore
• Budget-conscious music fans who want quality without breaking the bank

Food and Drink Options

The Glasshouse restaurant and bar offers late-night bites, and there's a Starbucks right inside the hotel for those early morning or post-gig cravings. Room service is available, and the hotel's breakfast—served continental style in the Club Lounge for premium guests—hits the spot after a late night. Plus, the Northern Quarter’s foodie scene is right outside your door.

Nightlife Options

While there’s no live music on-site, you’re steps away from Manchester’s best bars, lounges, and clubs. The hotel bar serves up local craft drinks in a relaxed setting, perfect for a nightcap without the chaos.

What People Say

Guests rave about the unbeatable location for concerts, the stylish and clean rooms, and the friendly, accommodating staff. Many highlight the comfy beds and quiet atmosphere as major plus points after a night out.

Areas for Improvement

The hotel’s parking is off-site, which some guests found a bit inconvenient, though discounts are available. Also, while the fitness suite is handy, it’s fairly compact—fine for a quick session but not for a full workout.

The Bottom Line

If you want a stylish, comfy, and ultra-convenient base for your Manchester concert adventure, the Crowne Plaza Manchester City Centre ticks all the right boxes.
