Fantastic stay in the city

Really fantastic stay - 5/10 min walk from Oxford Street and Piccadily. Decor of the bar / hotel / room was beautiful. Nice to have a little kitchen with a kettle etc. Really lovely staff - thank you for the breakfast recommendations! Great price too for a two night stay.

Manchester family trip

We loved our time at Whitworth Locke. The location was very convenient but outside of the more bustling parts of the city. We stayed with our three young sons and having the option to stay in a two bedroom unit was fantastic! The amenities were great and the staff was very helpful.

Everything about the whitworth was amazing. It’s central to local transport, restaurants and cafes, and a bunch of sights (if you’re looking for things to do). They helped me get my luggage after it was delayed by the airport. Super clean, wonderful staff and restaurant, and they even secured our bags during the day until our next evening flight. Will be my go to when I travel to Manchester.
