Food and Drink Options

The hotel’s on-site restaurant serves up modern international dishes and is perfect for a pre- or post-concert meal. The Canal Terrace is a favorite for unwinding with a drink overlooking the water. While there’s no 24/7 room service, the restaurant and bar are open late enough for most night owls. Plus, breakfast is available after a late night, ensuring you don’t have to rush out of bed.

Nightlife Options

While there’s no on-site live music, you're a short walk from Manchester’s best bars, clubs, and lounges. Whether you’re after craft cocktails, indie dive bars, or late-night dance floors, you’ll find plenty of options nearby. The hotel’s own bar is also a great spot to start or end your night with local beers and relaxed vibes.

What People Say

Guests rave about the superb location, friendly staff, and spotlessly clean rooms. Many highlight the comfy beds and quiet rooms, even in such a central area. Travelers also appreciate the fast, free WiFi and the modern decor throughout the property.

Areas for Improvement

The only minor grumbles are that the hotel can get quite busy around major events, and the breakfast, while tasty, can be a bit crowded during peak times. Also, while the gym is well-equipped, it’s not huge – but it’s more than enough for a quick workout.

The Bottom Line

If you’re heading to Manchester for a concert and want a stylish, convenient, and comfortable stay, Holiday Inn Manchester - City Centre hits all the right notes.
