- Stylish design: Design is a leading aspect of The Alan, a cosmopolitan hub of contemporary living in the middle of bustling Manchester. Exposed brick walls, metal girders create an industrial-chic atmosphere. As comfy as it is cool, this hotel has partnered with top designers to supply the fixtures, furniture and accents - the results speak for themselves, with a stylish setting fit for the fashionable metropolis it’s in.
- Immersive food: With a view of the open-plan kitchen in the restaurant, dining is as much of a visual experience as it is an appetising one. The menu is constantly rotating so the kitchen can ensure it’s getting the best seasonal British ingredients. Great partnerships have been forged between the bar and local craft breweries and independent distilleries, so the drinking options are as exciting as the dining ones.
- Central living: Based in the very centre of the city, Manchester is yours for the taking. In the immediate vicinity, admire internationally renowned art at the Manchester Art Gallery, shop at the Manchester Arndale shopping centre, or simply take a leisurely stroll along Bridgewater Canal. Let’s not forget the myriad bars, pubs and restaurants you’ll find down every street - there's something for everyone.
