Hotel Gotham Manchester

The hotel exceeded expectations, every staff member was lovely and couldn't have been more helpful. The room was gorgeous and felt very private - we had no noise from other guests or outside and considering it's a busy city centre hotel that was impressive! The entire hotel was immaculate at all times, we enjoyed breakfast on both days. Fresh pastries and a lovely selection of hot and cold food. Hotel Gotham is the best hotel I've ever been in.

I’m writing not just to offer feedback, but to express my deep disappointment following a recent stay with you, which was meant to be a special occasion celebrating my 40th birthday – a milestone weekend before my wedding.|Unfortunately, the experience fell far short of expectations for several reasons:||Lack of Prior Notice about Building Work|We were only informed about ongoing construction the day before our arrival. This gave us no realistic opportunity to make alternative arrangements. Had we been notified earlier, we would have certainly reconsidered our booking.||Warm Bottle on Arrival|We had pre-arranged for a bottle to be served on ice upon arrival. However, the ice had completely melted and the drink was warm – which completely undermined the welcome we were expecting, especially after providing a clear arrival time.||Incorrect and Delayed Birthday Plate|A celebratory birthday plate was meant to be part of the surprise for my wife. Not only was it not ready upon our arrival, but when it was eventually sent, it was incorrect – ruining what should have been a special moment.|Uncomfortable Breakfast Experience||Breakfast was far from pleasant. Builders were visibly watching through the window, making my wife feel uncomfortable. With no available tables to move to and a 45-minute wait for a vegetarian breakfast option (don't eat pork), I ended up with a minimal, unsatisfactory meal – just a small portion of scrambled eggs and a disk of bread. Additionally, there was no almond milk available, which further limited our options.||Unprofessional Attitude at Checkout|At checkout, we were met with what felt like a dismissive attitude. There was no acknowledgment or apology for the poor experience – which added insult to injury after such a disappointing stay. I believe you may have even been at reception at the time.||To say this stay was upsetting is an understatement. I had previously recommended your hotel to others, and it was my wife’s idea to return based on my past experiences. She was so upset the next day, feeling that what should have been a joyful weekend had been ruined – and sadly, I have to agree.

The only fault that I can find with my short notice two day stay is the scaffolding... The room itself was beautiful, every detail has been carefully chosen. The bathroom was outstanding with a waterfall shower that was easy to operate and spacious enough for two. The staff have been phenomenal. No request was too small and every interaction apart from in the bar upstairs was perfect. a special shout out to the housekeeping staff,

Excellent hotel stay. Staff were wonderful and very professional. Good central location. Current renovation works had no effect on our stay. The rooftop bar is definitely worth a look. My only negative was the air conditioning was not the best on a very hot weekend. I will definitely be back.

I visited the reception of this hotel as I along with 2 other people were doing a scavenger hunt for a work event. The staff, in particular Jason and Harry, were so delightful and friendly and helped us with facts of Manchester and an amazing free gift that we needed and we won the scavenger hunt with the judge loving our free item. Thank you to the lovely reception/doormen who assisted us as 2 of us are not locals to Manchester and they informed us with some lovely facts on the city and an overall lovely interaction.

Myself and my partner had a beautiful 2 night stay at hotel Gotham in Manchester for his birthday. We purchased a voucher for our stay and it was so worth it. From beginning to end, service was impeccable and staff were so friendly. Lots of lovely little extra touches that made the trip that bit more special. Including a bottle of Prosecco on arrival. Room was to die for! Breakfast both mornings was supreme and the very helpful doorman/concierge secured our late check out and luggage while we explored MCR a little more before heading home. Great location. The exterior of the hotel was getting some rendering work completed so there was scaffolding outside the building right up to the top floor so I’d say just to keep the curtains in the room closed for privacy reasons but please don’t let this put you off going at this time as we did not experience any noise during our time. Hotel was absolutely beautiful from end to end. We will most definitely be returning in the future. Thanks again!

From the moment we arrived at Hotel Gotham, we knew we were in for something special. The Art Deco-inspired design is stunning, with every corner of the hotel exuding character, elegance, and a touch of playful decadence. It’s not just a place to sleep—it’s an experience. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, making us feel like VIPs from check-in to check-out. Our room was immaculate and beautifully styled, with plush furnishings, unique décor, and those signature Gotham touches that make it feel like a luxury retreat. Breakfast was just impressive, with so much to choose from and superb service in a beautiful setting. If you're looking for somewhere memorable to stay in Manchester, Hotel Gotham is in a league of its own. Stylish, sophisticated, and full of charm—this hotel has it all. Can’t wait to return!

Lovely rooms and service. Very pleasant hotel, shame there is scaffolding up at present but great little bar and breakfast was lovely. Staff were very polite and helpful and a glass of Prosecco on arrival was a lovely little treat, would definitely recommend!

What a fun and elegant hotel! This property basks in the splendor of its historic roots as a bank. Built in 1928, it has beautiful details that add a mystique and character missing from most modern structures. Upon walking in you encounter a whimsical ground floor receiving area. The actual lobby is on a higher floor. The check-in itself was swift and the team was very professional. We were early and they were able to stow away our luggage while we explored the city for a few hours. We booked the Inner Sanctum Suite which is a windowless room that has a video wall (they call it a Wonderwall) that subs as a view. The neat thing is you can change the video to simulate a view of a London, New York or Paris skyline. So cool! The room is elegantly appointed and had a very dark, sophisticated vibe to it. In addition to the Wonderwall, they also had a great sound system wired in that had Classical, Opera, Love Songs or 80's New Wave to choose from- how perfect! There were also so many special touches- local milk in the fridge, pink pig shaped iced cookies and a cheeky gossip rag that gave insights into the goings on at the hotel. There is so much care and imagination that goes into this property! This suite was perfect for a calm night's rest. My only regret is that we only spent one night in Manchester. I would love to stay at this hotel again. Everything about it was charming and special- and the location was excellent. 5 stars all the way for Hotel Gotham!

I booked Hotel Gotham for a night for my bf's 30th and we checked in early enough (with a strangely robotic receptionist!) to have some time to enjoy the outdoor terrace of the 7th floor bar in daylight. The view is not as good as Manchester House but it's fun to be in amongst all the grand old buildings at the heart of the city centre. Rugs are provided and the staff appeared to be trained to come and sit with you to discuss each drinks order, which is useful if you're hesitating about the large cocktail menu. I had the Corpse Reviver No 2, a great suggestion from the bartender having heard my preferences which might be my new favourite cocktail - strong, smooth and light, it's the perfect Sunday afternoon drink. Unfortunately there was some confusion over my bf's beer order, so he got the wrong one (a very unfortunate mistake at £5.50...). Overall the drinks are about as expensive as you will get in Manchester, they are more expensive than Manchester House, some sitting at £14 aka London prices. The bill was therefore pretty eye-watering and frankly I probably wouldn't drink there again. That said, if you do stay in the hotel it's worth a visit as it's so quiet and has some nice views. Staying multiple nights I would advise you to check out some of the other bars nearby (Liquorice and Salut, for example, are very close). The room was very comfortable but, as I got a club room through a secret escapes deal, was small and somewhat strangely proportioned with a large empty hallway and then not much room for the bed. If you wanted a room to spend a lot of time lounging in, I would go for the next rate up at least. I did get a very good night's sleep though and did not notice any noise in the morning (Monday). The restaurant, where we had breakfast, is unusual in Manchester for being high up (6th floor) and has windows all the way around it letting in a lot of light and cool view of an angel statue. Breakfast was good, with high quality ingredients in the fry up and my bf's kippers were fantastic. Overall although this hotel is classed as a 5* I think going for the club rooms you may feel more like it's a very nice 4*. Value wise, that isn't bad, until you factor in the very expensive drinks.

For a place that charges 400£ on Friday and Saturday night, it was very disappointing to come back to the hotel wanting to entertain friends for drinks and to have the main bar "club brass" closed. Three out of my five night stay they closed before 1030 and weekend by midnight. The room was nice, but for that much, they also didn't offer international conversion chargers for wall sockets and it was an item only made available for purchase. The free "continental" breakfast was made up of mediocre danishes, and generic cured meats. If you want eggs, you had to pay additional for them as well. Rather have stayed at the Raddison or the Lowry.

First off I should probably say I'm slapping myself on the back right now for choosing this hotel - so so good and thankfully it lived up to the hype! Great staff, great location, amazing style and architecture, extremely unique - coupled with a boutique feeling and attention to detail meant that every part of our stay was 100% win! The bar 'club brass' was perfect for drinks at any time, the rooms were comfy and quiet, with the club rooms still fairly large - the bathroom and shower were all encompassing and lovely to be in. We ate out for breakfast and dinner each day so I didn't have any of the food but they did deliver these fantastic pink cookies to our room each night which were seriously good - I wish I had one right now! Every time I have peeps visiting I'm going to suggest that stay at HG - what a great place!

Swoon! I am in love with this hotel. What a luxurious hotel to stay in for three nights. While the address is King Street, the entrance is actually on Spring Gardens. Reception is on level 6 (there's a concierge downstairs who will direct you). Check-in was simple with £100 per night taken on my card for expenses. The room I was in was the basic one but only really in size - the best is massive and super comfy and the bathroom is actually quite large. The room was perfectly fine for one person staying and wouldn't be an issue for two, so I actually don't have any complaint about this. The room had a lot of nice touches - great decor, a beautiful large faux fur blanket on the bed, nice books and general styling. The bathroom products were lovely and there's a rainfall shower in the bathroom (as well as a normal shower head if you don't want to get your hair wet). The mini bar was great too - Sipsmith gin and tonic in there which I treated myself to after a hellish trip from Glasgow. There's also really lovely crystal glasses which makes having a little drink feel really luxurious. Club Brass on level 7 is pretty nice - it's a private members club and very expensive, but you also get admission if you're a guest. We stopped in for a drink one night and the drinks were just lovely. There's also a balcony so you can look out over at Manchester. The location is great and close by to a number of really great restaurants/bars and I would love to stay here again.

Quite simply the best hotel I have ever stayed at! If I could give out 6 or even 7 stars I would. I've never stayed in a hotel where before I leave the room I tidy it in some sort attempt to maintain its perfection! I usually judge a hotel on three elements; service, the shower and the bed. I'm pleased to say that Hotel Gotham came up trumps in all of these areas. I had limited interaction with the staff, this is a good thing, but when I did they were professional charming and polite - I had a chat with the concierge on the first evening and on the third evening he remembered our conversation in entirety. Very impressive! The shower reminded me of Peter Andre's Mysterious Girl music video circa '95! Warm waterfalls coming at my from every angle! Just incredible. The bed was also out of this world - strange thing is that I didn't once get under the duvet in my three night stay. Instead I used the huge faux animal skin blanket to keep warm in the night. The attention to detail at Hotel Gotham is exceptional. One example of this is the freshly baked piggy cookies that are left by your bed every day. Hotel Gotham has it all! Comfort, class and a quirky coolness! I can not recommend this hotel enough - if you're looking to impress someone take them here. You won't regret it!

After an afternoon of over indulgence at Hawksmoor to celebrate a friends birthday, we decided to join him on the roof terrace of his hotel - this being Hotel Gotham at the top of King Street. Having heard lots of great things about this place and with me working in the banking & finance industry, I was more than curious to see what the former HSBC had been turned into. Having been in Jamie's Italian and seen the vaults had been turned into individual unisex toilets, colour me intrigued! As a resident of the hotel, my friend was able to invite two guests to join him. Normally, I'm guessing, this wouldn't be a problem but when there's three of you, the front of house is a little over zealous about letting the third in, but after MUCH persuasion, we are admitted entry. Now, the bar is very well presented and it is very relaxed and chilled. Empty is another word. You would therefore be forgiven for wondering what the fuss was about about letting in one additional guest. I'll come back to this later. Once in the terrace and my friend finished off his cocktail, he pushed the boat out and ordered a bottle of Krug. When I say push it out, I mean we could hardly see the shoreline as at £250 a bottle, it was more than a little push! The waiter was very familiar and made us feel welcome and did all he could to make sure we were happy. Over familiarity did however, prevent my friend from getting his second cocktail and there wasn't any apologist forthcoming. We went down to his room to check it out and it was very pleasant and tastefully decorated. Room service was attentive and overall it was good. Now. For the over fussiness. Each floor is protected by electric entry system and there's few staff around so as a guest, it's nice to feel protected so I think that the over eager FOH who challenged a third guest into a quiet bar maybe trying to protect the guests and owners from lots of undesirables, but it's important to remember that not every situation fits a set rule and when people are prepared to spend time and money in your expensive bar, take it!

I don't think I have ever stayed at a hotel where I literally don't want to leave. This is possibly one of the nicest and well though out places I have ever stayed! I am a big fan of the term 'the devil is in the detail' ...at the Gotham everything has been thought out and fits the theme perfectly. The art on the walls, the mini bar, the carpet in the halls, the wall paper and literally every detail here have been fine tuned to make your stay the best it can be. My favourite touches are things like the pig cookies that are left for you each night and the fact the lighting and music are adjusted for when you come back in the evening. The music of choice for your arrival back at your room each evening is classic fm...now I am not usually a classic fm kind of guy but leaving it on really gave the right vibe to the space! This was a perfect stay in an amazing hotel....wow.

Two words: Swit Swoo. This is a grand, swanky new hotel that absolutely wowed me on a sleepy Wednesday evening. I attended Hotel Gotham as a venue for dining; so I unfortunately can't comment on the hotel room itself or how the venue rates for accommodation and looking after guests. But I can however, comment on the exquisite food and drink! The dining area is light and airy - vintage styled windows with a classic stripe wallpaper design and lots of quirky typewriters fixed on the walls with 'Gotham' newspapers half printed. If your one of those who takes millions of photos of the restaurant before you even sit down to eat - like me- then you'll love the interior of this place. Myself and my party were dining from a set menu, which was a little bit limited, but the options on the small menu were all really tempting, so that was a plus point. I opted for Chicken and Ham pie starter, Mushroom Tortellini main, and Rhubarb Bakewell with clotted cream desert. The starter was incredible - a really dense meat-packed pie with a very fancy crust topping and mustard surrounding the pie like a little moat. The starter actually looked like a castle and a moat! The pie was piled up high, with the stream of mustard surrounding. The meat was delicious - the combination of chicken and ham fused together was incredible. The main course was probably the least enjoyable of the three, but I think this is because it was purely mushrooms stuffed into the tortellini, so it was a tad on the 'mushroom overload' side. Possibly my fault for picking this. It did however come with the tastiest leeks. As for the desert - this was out of this world. I was expecting just a slice of Bakewell tart, but was treated to a large enclosed crust 'pie' type tart, stuffed with rhubarb and sponge. It taste like a regular Bakewell Tart except much more fruitier, a little more bitter (in a good way) and the crust was incredibly soft and buttery. The clotted cream gave the perfect finishing touch. Amazing wines, ten out of ten waiter service, and a relaxed ambience. A lovely place to dine. A little on the pricey side, and perhaps their could have been more choice on the menu, but overall a very lovely experience.

God only knows why it's taken me a good month to write this review - possibly because Hotel Gotham was so good words simply could not do it justice but hey I'm going to give it a good try... From the minute I stepped in, to the minute I left, I felt like I was in hotel heaven but with the theme of Batman's home town. Which lets face it, has to be one of the best themes going. The beauty of HG is that it's not in your face and their isn't actually any sign of Batman anywhere - what remains is the eery feel of how you imagine Gotham town to be (shown by images on the walls and quirky, unique furniture) and the suaveness of how you'd think those at the top of the food chain in Gotham would have lived. It's perfection. For me it was the small intricacies that made this place shine - pig shaped cookies, a fur throw, themed menus/note pads/pencils, a useable Gotham printed umbrella, Gotham robes - every last object in this hotel had been thought out and made to fit in with the theme and the result is just magical. Now to my actual room - 10 out of 10. Comfortable bed, a shower you could dance in, beds changed and made daily, shampoos/conditioners topped up, new towels daily, just pure luxury bottled up in a hotel room explosion (can you tell I was excited). My only two tiny-weeny complaints are: - reception on the 6th floor(a tad annoying but you deal with it). - the pillows for me were too soft but this is a personal pillow preference matter. All in all this is by far the most amazing hotel experience I have ever had and if I could I would live there in my little Gotham room forever but sadly good things have to come to an end BUT I will be back... You hear me Batman?!

Well very Quirky interior to say the least me and my parter in crime Robin aka my wife!!!!!! Went for a meal just to try the 5 star hotel and menu. So we went for a starter main and desert it was all very well executed and plated beautifully,but do you know when something is missing that's how I felt? It was good but for the £190 bill for 2 I just couldn't justify it that did include a nice bottle of Malbec and Prosecco which I must say was very nice. After the meal we went to the brass bar where we clicked with the bar staff as we are real people and not pretentious pricks....pardon my language.the cocktails where out of this world and a must if you love a well prepped drink packed with flavor.. all in all a pleasant experience but won't be rushing back.Oh the rooms are funky also.

Batman has much experience of shadow hiding. I must fiRst make declarings of my disapoints. My girlfriendS booked us a room at Gotham hotel after my great love for Batman, the Crusader with Cape. Batman, therefore, was not to be found here. Maybe too busy fighting the Octopus Doctor.? The hotel was many magnificents. The view of Gotham was spectacle from my room. MuST be seen to have a belief. Would recommend. My girfriendS enjoyed them all self very greatly too, with the lavish furnishings. Thank you for my stay to you, Commisioner 5 STRATS

Five. Stars. All. The. Way. I seriously never want to move out of this hotel. Like, ever. It's honestly my favourite hotel I've ever stayed in. Fact. What makes it so good? So. Many. Things. Let me try to list them; 1. I'm such a sucker for a turn down. And these guys do it WELL. You return to your room at night with the lights dimmed, the (fake) fur rug strewn over your bed, and dramatic classical music playing in the background. It's like walking into a movie each and every time. 2. Little jars of pig-shaped cookies left for you every evening 3. The quality of the mini-bar - artisan food, I wanted ALL of it. Plus cocktail glasses! Nice ones! 4. They've thought of EVERYTHING. They have these little sealed up packs of stuff you might have forgotten. A hangover pack with paracetamol, an energy shot, Berocca etc, a charging pack with an adaptor, phone charging wires etc, and an intimacy pack with eh... fun stuff.. 5. The decor. Top notch design here. Every element has been thought through to evoke that film noir type feeling, yet without ever feeling cheesy or overboard 6. A teeny tiny welcome cocktail on arrival, every time. Yes. 7. The bed - comfy mattress, fluffy pillows, luxurious bedding, and the afore mentioned fake fur. 8. The bathroom - excellent heavy rain shower, good quality products, and the sense of opulence con 9. Club Brass (for guests and members only). They describe it as: "You'll pass through two vault-like doors on your way into a Prohibition-style speakeasy that will make you feel like a million bucks." I couldn't possibly put it better than that. 10. Staff. Seriously pro - the right mix of professionalism with friendly. And they're kitted out spectacularly. Love the uniforms - they lend a real sense of occasion the hotel, which I think is a common theme throughout every single detail of it. Outstanding. Do I really have to leave? Like reaallly?

Absolutely not a five star hotel. Tacky furnishings, curtains that don't close properly, rude bell boys, small pokey rooms, No pool, No spa, hotel bar that's full of adverting types in terrible shiny blue suits taking about there new client... likely bathroom tissue brand & finally it's called Gotham. Like an old shitty hotel on the West Side Highway. I have no idea why ANYONE would rate this hotel 5 / 5 - I can only imagine the peasants haven't been to many 5 star hotels ... don't. do. it.

Nicely themed place, based on Batman Gotham City. Had afternoon tea which tasted really good. The service was attentive and polite and the place was clean. The food tasted good and the coffee definitely was better than average. The only issue I have is the length of time it took for things to come. We waited quite a while for each item of food to come, particularly sandwiches. I appreciate that it takes time to hand make things but sandwiches do not take 20-30 minutes. Otherwise generally pleased.

Back at the Gotham.... Christmas markets, then a drink in the roof top bar before dinner... Gotham is a great spot, a little quirky but a proper hotel.... Great team and service first class.... A must, if you like "proper!"

Delighted to have found a fantastic place to stay in my favourite city! I can't fault anything about it - from the friendly staff, to the delicious food, to the most comfortable of beds, to the sheer grandeur of the building with its parquet floors and original tiles in the stairways...and a great location too. I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel for your stay in Manchester.
