Piccadilly Central - Triple Room w/ en suite

Smack in the middle of Manchester, this spot’s got great vibes. Rooms are right above a stunning *LIVELY* pub & just a minute from Piccadilly train & tram -ideal for groups rolling into town to party! Bar’s usually closed Mon, it’s a regular boozer Tues - Thurs, and DJ's Fri & Sat til 2am & Sunday from 4-10pm. If you’re cool with the city sounds and love a buzz, this is a win! Bathroom en-suite and it’s on the second floor - just a heads-up, there’s no lift, so you’ll need to tackle the stairs.
