Places to stay in Greater Manchester
Immerse yourself in the culture, entertainment and nightlife of one of the most vibrant modern cities in England. Step outside its boundaries and explore winding rivers, black-and-white timber houses and the sweet sound of jazz.
Discover the Manchester waterfront at the impressive Quays. Enjoy a play, wander the galleries or dine out in a restaurant at The Lowry, a veritable centre of culture and entertainment. Marvel at the impressive B of the Bang Sculpture – the tallest in the UK – and discover how Mancunians lived a hundred or so years ago at the Museum of Science & Industry in Manchester.
Explore 30 miles of rivers and canals in Salford. Drop a penny in the water and make a wish at the Victorian ornamental fountain in Worsley village – built from the old factory’s chimney stacks – and admire the charming 18th and 19th-century black-and-white timber buildings.
