The Spotlight on The Bulls Head Hotel

Your Perfect Manchester Concert Base: The Bulls Head Hotel

Modern and welcoming, The Bulls Head Hotel sits right in the center of Manchester, offering easy access to the city's top concert venues, bars, and attractions. With cozy rooms, free WiFi, and a relaxed vibe, this hotel is perfect for music fans looking for convenience and comfort.
Located just steps from Piccadilly Station and a short stroll to hotspots like Canal Street, The Palace Theatre, and Manchester Apollo, you'll be right in the heart of the action.

Why Concert-goers love it

Thanks to its unbeatable location, you're just a quick walk or taxi ride away from major venues. The hotel’s central spot makes late-night trips back a breeze, and with a 14:30 check-in and 11:00 check-out, you get a little extra time to recover after a big night out. Inside, expect a peaceful atmosphere that still keeps you connected to all the buzz.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a lively weekend base
  • Solo travelers ticking a concert off their bucket list
  • Couples planning a romantic music getaway
  • Fans who want a quieter spot to chill after the show
  • Budget-conscious music lovers seeking great value downtown

Food and Drink Options

While The Bulls Head Hotel offers a hearty continental breakfast to help you recharge after a late night, there isn’t an on-site restaurant with late-night dining. However, you’re surrounded by Manchester’s vibrant food scene, with countless walkable eateries, pubs, and coffee shops open late.

Nightlife Options

You're perfectly placed to explore Manchester’s famous nightlife. From lively bars on Canal Street to cool lounges near Albert Square, there’s no shortage of places to keep the party going. While the hotel itself doesn’t feature live music or a bar, you'll find excellent options just steps away.

What People Say

Guests love the friendly staff, spotless rooms, and unbeatable location. Many mention how easy it is to get to concerts and trains, and appreciate the hotel’s quiet, comfortable rooms after a night out.

Areas for Improvement

Some travelers noted that the hotel could benefit from a few more modern touches in the rooms. Also, as it's in a bustling area, a bit of street noise can filter in — something earplugs can easily fix if you're a light sleeper.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for a cozy, centrally located hotel in Manchester that puts you steps from the city's top music venues and nightlife, The Bulls Head Hotel is an excellent choice.

Would stay again.

Liked: Conveniently located for Piccadilly station and the O2 Apollo. Self service breakfast was basic but good. The shower in the en suite was good. The Timothy Taylor’s Landlord on draught was good.
Disliked: The lady who booked me in seemed under a lot of pressure and had to look after the bar and book people in and show them their rooms.The room, whilst comfortable, had very dusty light fittings and the en suite was a bit cosy. We had the twin room, which overlooks an office, and could have done with nets at the window for privacy.

Grand little stay away in...

Liked: Centrally located. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Continental breakfast was nice.
Disliked: Was a bit noisy during the day, with traffic, trams and the railway nearby. But overall shut your windows and its fine.

This property is more 2/3...

Liked: Clean and very close to Picadilly.
Disliked: Breakfast should have been described better as cereal and toast on the landing. Also website stated food was being served in the pub and it hasn’t been for a long time, staff stated they don’t have any food apart from nuts. Couldn’t access WiFi the entire stay and found bbc news on tv unavailable also.
