Whitworth Locke

Whitworth Locke Civic Quarter | Manchester

Building on the fabric of Manchester.

Building on the fabric of Manchester.

With its stunning communal spaces and spacious, one-of-a-kind apartments, Whitworth Locke is more than just a place to stay – it’s a space to live.

Set in a 19th Century cotton factory, every area – from the beautiful Conservatory Bar to the spacious co-working lounge – celebrates the building’s quirks and features. There’s also a packed calendar of events, pop-ups and fitness classes for you to join in with, if you fancy. And if you’re heading out, you’re just minutes from the city’s best bars, shops and nightlife. Settle in, and see Manchester differently.

Exploring

Exploring

Going out or staying in? We bring the best of Manchester into our spaces, and provide our guests with lots of local tips. So you can see more of the good stuff (and less of the tourist traps). 

Explore local area.

Love Manchester.

Wake up with a freshly roasted coffee from Foundation Coffee House. Spend the day in the Northern Quarter, with its colourful street art, independent shops and buzzing atmosphere. Before exploring Manchester’s best bars and restaurants after dark – just minutes from our door. 

Opposite the much-loved Canal Street and around an 8-minute walk from Piccadilly Station, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a better-located Manchester hotel. What’s more, when you stay at Whitworth Locke, you get all the best bits of a boutique hotel with the space and facilities of a serviced apartment. So you can experience the city, rather than just observe. And live, instead of stay. 

What's on.

Hey Charlotte, Thank you for providing such an in-depth review of your stay. Whilst you had a great stay overall, we'd like to address the issue of drainage smell that you encountered during your stay. Although we appreciate your desire not to complain, we wish you had felt comfortable to let us know about this as if the smell persisted it is likely that a part in the drain was not pushed in correctly. This happens sometimes when housekeeping removes it to clean but is a very quick fix. Please don't be shy in letting us know of any issues during your stay next time so that we can try to resolve them for you. More often than not we are able to resolve the issue, or find an alternative solution. Thank you again for taking the time to review your experience. Hope you get a chance to try the café or Winsome next time! Best, Vanessa & The Whitworth Team
