Your guide to the best luxury hotels in Manchester
Kimpton Clocktower Manchester · City CentreFor this guide we have gathered the best hotels in Manchester: two 5-star hotels, from 103 euros a night.At no extra cost: booking through suitespot costs the same as booking direct with the hotel – the benefits come on top, free of charge.
Two luxury hotels in Manchester – and how to choose
The two luxury hotels in Manchester cost 103 € and 162 € a night – 59 euros apart.
The Edwardian Manchester Radisson Collection Hotel · SpinningfieldsAt both hotels the suitespot benefits apply from the first night.
And at the cheaper of the two you should know the room sizes before you book.
Our travel advisors’ insider tip
The Kimpton Clocktower Manchester from 103 € offers 35 categories – a very long list. The rooms run from 12 to 69 square metres.
That is almost six times over. Spans like that are not rare in city hotels, but they rarely start that far down: twelve square metres is a statement.
In the middle the list then bunches up: five categories measure exactly 28, three more 26. So between those eight you are not deciding about space.
For the other 16 categories our travel advisors confirm the size before you book.
Our advice: do not book this hotel by the category name. Give us a square metre floor – we will get the hotel to put in writing before you book which specific category meets it. With a list this long that is the only reliable route.
For comparison: The Edwardian Manchester Radisson Collection Hotel from 162 € carries seven categories, including ones of 24, 25, 41 and 70 square metres.
Where to stay in Manchester: City Centre or Spinningfields
The two best hotels in Manchester are both central, but in different districts.
In the City Centre stands the Kimpton Clocktower Manchester from 103 € with 35 categories – by far the longer list of the two. Our recommendation for anyone who wants plenty to choose from and is willing to look closely.
In Spinningfields stands The Edwardian Manchester Radisson Collection Hotel from 162 € with 7 categories, among them three suites. Two of them look out on the skyline – not simply „city“, but the silhouette. Our recommendation for anyone who wants a manageable list and the view.
What lies between the two addresses, our travel advisors know.
42 categories: the best hotels in Manchester from the inside
Together the best hotels in Manchester offer 42 categories – 35 of them at a single hotel.
At the Kimpton Clocktower Manchester the categories measure between 12 and 69 square metres, most often 28.
At The Edwardian Manchester Radisson Collection Hotel you will find categories of 24, 25, 41 and 70 square metres. At 70 square metres, one category there is even slightly larger than the 69 at the Kimpton – with a fifth as many categories.
The remaining square metres our travel advisors have confirmed before you book, category by category.

• At the Kimpton Clocktower Manchester it is listed as general hotel credit.
• At The Edwardian Manchester Radisson Collection Hotel it is explicitly for food and drink – and carries the note that it is not included in all rates.
That note matters more than the figure: it means the credit depends on the rate you book. So we check it for you before you book against the specific rate – and tell you if a marginally dearer rate brings it along.
Give us your programme number with the enquiry, depending on which of the two it turns out to be.
