The cabins
YOTEL calls its rooms cabins. They are compact and designed to make clever use of space, with adjustable SmartBeds and tech built in. Think of it as a smart city crash pad rather than somewhere to lounge for hours, which keeps prices competitive for such a central address. Solo travellers, couples on a city break and business visitors on short stays are the natural fit. If you need lots of space or are travelling with a family, check cabin sizes carefully before booking.
Eating and drinking
Downstairs, MOTLEY is the hotel's restaurant and bar, with an outdoor terrace for a drink when the weather allows. The building was previously the Qbic hotel before being rebranded as a YOTEL. Having a bar and restaurant downstairs means you can eat without leaving the building after a long day, and the terrace is a pleasant spot for an early-evening drink before heading out.
Location
John Dalton Street runs between Deansgate and Albert Square, so the Town Hall, St Ann's Square and King Street shops are all a few minutes' walk. Dishoom Manchester is close by for breakfast, and Vincenzo Trattoria is nearby for Italian. St Mary's RC Church is just around the corner.
