Designed with a trendy faux-industrial look, Motel One Manchester-Royal Exchange pays homage to Manchester’s golden era, when the city was known as “Cottonopolis.” The hotel’s design highlights cotton as a raw material and its processing history. The foyer is striking, featuring six-metre-high round steel arches and a wall of printed cloth, setting the tone for the theme. The décor includes furniture by Baxter and hanging lamps by Arturo Alvarez, complemented by intricate details such as spools of thread and spinning machines.
A standout feature is the “Cottonopolis” wall installation by paper artist Andy Singleton, composed entirely of shapes cast by innumerable single threads, serving as a captivating visual centrepiece.
Situated directly opposite the Royal Exchange Theatre, this affordable hotel is in the heart of Manchester. Major attractions such as the Town Hall, Manchester Cathedral, Manchester Arena, and the Manchester Central Convention Complex are within walking distance. Both Victoria and Manchester Piccadilly stations are easily accessible, making it a convenient base for exploring the city.
Discover the rich history of the cotton trade and enjoy a stylish stay at Motel One Manchester-Royal Exchange.
