Oxford
Street, Manchester M60 7HA
4 Star
Hotel - AA assessed.
Situated
just off the city centre on Oxford Street opposite the Palace
Theatre and across from the Cornerhouse and Oxford Road
Station, this fabulous building, formerly the Charterhouse
Hotel, now part of the Le Meridien hotels chain, has been
ressurrected after standing idle for a few years, since
its original occupants, the Refuge Insurance Company vacated
it.
The
Palace Hotel is a recognised landmark of Manchester, thanks
to its distinctive 217ft tall clock tower.
Still known locally (and with good reason) as the 'Refuge
Building', it is a distinctive landmark to visitors approaching
Manchester from the south. This Grade II Listed Building
is one of the city's best Victorian structures, and thus
could not be in any way altered when it was converted to
a hotel.
Some
bedrooms have jacuzzis, and there the Waterhouse Restaurant
and a coffee shop on site. It offers extensive conference
facilities. Tthis
magnificent terracotta building has recently undergone a
major £7 million refurbishment and investment programme
to enable us to offer the ultimate in luxury hotel accommodation,
facilities and standards.
All
257 of the hotel's en-suite bedrooms have been furnished
to an upper four star standard to ensure your comfort is
guaranteed. Whether you choose a standard, Ambassador or
contemporary room, you can be assured that you will experience
one of the most comfortable and memorable bedroom experiences
in the country.
The
Palace Hotel offers unrivalled facilities for meetings,
conferences, banqueting and special events with function
rooms, equipped to the highest of standards accommodating
between 2 and 100 delegates theatre style or 810 people
for dinner. The brand new Tempus Bar is the ideal venue
to meet new friends or relax whilst having a pre-dinner
drink.
Easily
accessible by road, rail and air, The Palace Hotel is situated
directly opposite Oxford Street Station, is within walking
distance of Piccadilly Station and is just a short journey
from Manchester International Airport.
