Hotel Indigo Manchester Victoria Station

Old meets new

The hotel was created by joining the historic, Grade II listed City Buildings, empty for several years, to a new-build extension, with each floor connecting through. Architects 3DReid set out to make it neither traditional nor contemporary, and the result opened in 2018. Room types carry local names, such as Tea Rooms, Arkwright Rooms and Press Rooms, and there are city-view suites with balconies. The mix of period rooms and modern tower rooms means it is worth checking which part of the building your room is in when you book.

Eating in

The restaurant, Mamucium, cooks with locally sourced ingredients, which are also served to rooms. Todd Street Café covers breakfast and grab-and-go options for early trains.

Getting around

Victoria Station is beside the hotel, and the Victoria, Shudehill and Exchange Square tram stops are all within five minutes' walk. Manchester Cathedral, Cathedral Gardens and the National Football Museum are a few steps away, and The Old Wellington pub is close by. Victoria Station also has direct trains across the north, so it is a handy base for day trips, and the Northern Quarter's independent shops and bars are a short walk south-east.
