Hotel Review
Hotel Review: Leven, Manchester
A beautiful red brick building oozing with character reflecting its industrial past whilst shining though as a modern, centrally-located base from which to explore the best Manchester has to offer. Thoughtful amenities range from an eclectic minibar to toiletries which smell incredible. You'll feel at home, though possibly the décor will be a notch higher!

OUR REVIEW
THE NEIGHBOURHOOD
Located in the Village District means you are in party central, so if you're after a bar crawl or want to let loose dancing the night away within easy walking distance of your home for the night, then this is your hotel. Nearby Rochdale Canal is home to many alfresco drinking and dining options too.
By car: around 2 hours from Birmingham, 2 hours 15 minutes from Nottingham and 4 hours from London. Paid parking available nearby.
By train: London Euston to Manchester Piccadilly takes just over 2 hours. The hotel is a 5-minute walk from the station. Book trains to Manchester.
THE LOOK AND FEEL
The hotel's imposing red brick façade and Crittall windows give off a cool contemporary vibe which is carried through to the interior. The reception room as you enter has parquet flooring, comfortable leather upholstered chairs and a bar adorned with emerald-green scallop shaped tiles. There are exposed brick columns and sage green walls. The ambience throughout is modern meets stylish.
THE FACILITIES
If you book a larger room then you'll have all the facilities you'll need for an ideally-located base to explore the city. If you prefer others to wait on you, then you'll find happy staff to give you tips on what to experience to maximise your stay as well as beverages and cakes for you to purchase.
