The Mercure Manchester Piccadilly hotel has announced today the completion of a renovation project costing over £3million.
The refurbishment of the 4-star hotel’s 280 bedrooms and main reception area was completed over seven months. As part of the project, all bedrooms across the nine floors of the hotel have been redecorated with new soft furnishings, upcycled furniture and fresh carpets. The refurbishment also includes a new entrance concept that combines reception check in with a barista quality coffee shop.
At the same time, the en-suite bathrooms have been revamped, and the rooms now feature upgraded flat screen 55’ smart TVs, USB charging points on the desks and bedside tables, and striking, Manchester-inspired artwork.
The Mercure Manchester Piccadilly remains a popular destination within the meetings and events industry and a part of Manchester Piccadilly’s rich heritage and exciting future. The hotel’s ‘International Suite’ is one of the largest event spaces in Manchester, accommodating up to 800 people, with plans for further investment across its spaces throughout 2024.
General Manager, Andrew Krawec, is looking to position the hotel as the go-to northern location for unforgettable meetings and events and said: “This is part of an ambitious process for us here at Mercure Manchester Piccadilly. It’s the first stage in a number of projects we have lined up in the hotel throughout 2024 and beyond. It shows that we’ve listened to our customers, we’re inputting their ideas and that we’re on a journey with them to create something really special here in Manchester.”
“Manchester is a thriving destination for both business and leisure guests, and we’re incredibly fortunate that our hotel is right at the heart of this amazing city. It’s really Manchester’s time now, the city has so much to offer in terms of hospitality, but very few hotels can beat the location and scale of the Mercure Manchester Piccadilly. We’ve taken guest feedback on board and are thrilled to have completed this significant renovation and elevated our hotel just in time for the busy festive period.
