A refuge in the capital of cool.
With its clock tower and striking Victorian architecture, The Principal Manchester is an unmistakable landmark in the city's skyline. A magnificent, terracotta Grade II listed building, the hotel has a history dating back to 1890, when it first opened as The Refuge Assurance Company headquarters.
Opposite Oxford Road Station and just a 10-minute walk from Manchester Piccadilly, The Principal Manchester is perfectly placed for business travel and weekend getaways, and is close to many of the city’s attractions.
The swagger and scale of the public spaces at The Principal Manchester are found in equal measure in the bedrooms and suites, from double-height windows to wood panelling to original tiling. No two rooms are quite the same, but the features mainly derive from their location: Alfred Waterhouse’s 19th-century original building; Paul Waterhouse’s clock tower extension; or the block built in the 1930s. All of them were completely refurbished in 2016 as part of the multi-million pound launch of The Principal Manchester.
Free, superfast Wi-Fi with a maximum bandwidth of 1Gb is available throughout the hotel.
