Experiences
No trip to Manchester is complete without a trip to the theatre of dreams at Old Trafford, take a tour round the grounds, stop off to visit the changing rooms and sit in Alex Ferguson's seat in the dug out.
Experience a gig at The Manchester Evening News Arena, the largest arena in Europe and also the busiest arena in the world! All tastes are catered for from Kylie to Disney on Ice.
As the original 24 hour party city, Manchester guarantees one of the best nights out you can imagine, from rubbing shoulders with celebrities and footballers at hip hang outs such as Panacea, The Cocoa Rooms and Odyssey to spotting the latest music scene talent in the trendy Northern Quarter.
Manchester is a shopoholics dream city, from picking up the latest Prada designs at Harvey Nichols, Selfridges and House of Fraser to finding that vintage gem in the myriad of independent boutiques in the Northern Quarter.
Take a trip to Salford Quays where you can visit the collections of LS Lowry at The Lowry Arts and Entertainment Complex, visit the Imperial War Museum of The North or simply splash your cash at The Lowry Outlet Mall.
During the evening why not try some of Manchester's famous nightlife:
The Living Room on Deansgate, perennial favourite of footballers, VIPs and locals alike or Prohibition - just minutes away from the hotel, this boudoir style bar offers great cocktails and live DJs.
Deansgate Locks is one of the hippest streets in Manchester with a myriad of bars to choose from.
Visit the Northern Quarter, the home of bohemian Manchester and try Rags to Bitches, a vintage boutique with gorgeous clothes and accessories for men & women. They also serve free fairy cakes on Saturdays, and the owner, Flic Everett, will do tarot readings.
For men a cutthroat shave at the Gentry Grooming Company just around the corner from The Lowry Hotel is essential, using sharp razors and hot scented face towels, the face is left as smooth as silk for days.
View the Ford Maddox Brown panels at Manchester's glorious Victorian gothic Town Hall and spot the bee's in the decoration around the hall - Manchester's symbol is the industrious worker bee!!
Visit a full recreation of the world's first computer developed in Manchester at the Museum of Science and Industry in Castlefield.
Visit the Opera House, one of Manchester's biggest venues for large theatrical productions, opera, dance and modern West End musicals. Opened on Boxing Day in 1912, it was always a celebrated theatre hosting great actors as Sir John Geilgud, Peter Ustinov, Vivienne Leigh and Sir Alec Guinness.
