Bottom Line

There are certainly advantages to choosing an apartment over a standard hotel room, and Roomzzz Aparthotel makes the idea even more appealing. Units are self-contained (meaning they come with fully-equipped kitchens), and have a high-end, contemporary finish. The rooms come equipped with impressive technological features and have stylish bathrooms. Roomzzz is located right in Manchester's city center, so noise is a possibility on lower floors, and some apartments show some wear. That said, if a luxury apartment stay in central Manchester is what you're after, this is a clear winner.

Oyster Hotel Review

Roomzzz Manchester City

Scene

Contemporary, boutique aparthotel in well-preserved heritage building

The Roomzzz Aparthotel Manchester City is housed in a registered historic building (once a Victorian cotton warehouse), and its handsome, many-windowed exterior has been well preserved. There interiors also have many original elements intact, from exposed brickwork to original beams and elegant steel columns. Nevertheless, the interiors are self-consciously modern, with glass paneling, dark-wood parquet flooring, and bright pink armchairs in the subterranean reception area. A lack of proper public spaces makes the atmosphere a little anonymous, but the general mood is boutique, contemporary, and informal, attracting younger couples and families who prefer self-contained accommodation to the typical hotel experience.

Location

Situated in central Manchester, on the edge of Chinatown

The hotel is located on Portland Street, a busy central Manchester thoroughfare, just across the street from Chinatown and a few blocks from St. Peter's Square and Manchester Central Library. It's little over 10 minutes on foot to the main Manchester Piccadilly train terminal. The Northern Quarter with its fashion outlets, art galleries, and quirky boutique shops is also within walking distance.

Features

Grab-and-go breakfast and self-service laundry

As most guest amenities are in the self-contained apartments, there's little in the way of shared facilities. However, there is a great "grab-and-go" breakfast service in the morning for those who need to get breakfast and dash. There is also a communal laundry room and a small shop selling essentials such as toiletries, milk, microwave dinners, and drinks.
