Aloft by Marriott opens its UK flagship in Manchester this month

Aloft by Marriott, part of Marriott Bonvoy’s portfolio of over 30 extraordinary brands, has announced its opening Aloft by Marriott Manchester City Centre.

The 358-room hotel, set within a striking new tower on Deansgate, will officially open on 16 June, claiming the title of the largest Aloft by Marriott in Europe.

Developed by Dean Street Developments, the property occupies a commanding position on Deansgate, with panoramic views across the city skyline. Guests are seconds from the Deansgate-Castlefield Metrolink stop and within easy reach of Manchester Central Convention Centre, Spinningfields, Deansgate Square, and Oxford Road, placing the hotel at the intersection of the city’s commercial, cultural, and leisure offering.

Anchored in upbeat energy and vibrant design, Aloft by Marriott has built its reputation as the brand of choice for the next generation of travellers: bold, socially driven, and design-conscious. Best known for its dynamic social scene and inventive spaces, the brand finds a natural home in Manchester, a city with distinct creative energy and a booming visitor economy.

Guests can kick-start their day at Re:Fuel by Aloft®, the brand’s grab-and-go food and drinks hub, before heading to the W XYZ® Bar for craft cocktails, eclectic cuisine and a live music schedule of local up-and-coming musicians.

Families are well catered for with Camp Aloft®, a dedicated programme for kids, while pets are welcomed through Arf^® (Animals R Fun) which offers dedicated in-room amenities including toys and treats. A 24-hour fitness centre serves those who like to keep active, while a private meeting space makes it a practical choice for business travellers.

Room rates start from £95, and Marriott Bonvoy members can earn and redeem points across their stay, with access to mobile check-in and digital key functionality through the Marriott Bonvoy app.

‘We’re thrilled to open the very first Aloft by Marriott in a city known for its warm hospitality,” says Abi Hindle, General Manager. “Aloft by Marriott is a fantastic addition to Manchester’s already flourishing hospitality landscape, and we look forward to welcoming guests from near and far.’

“We are delighted to introduce Aloft by Marriott to Manchester, bringing this upscale, lifestyle brand to one of the UK’s most dynamic cities. Aloft is different by design. It is a hub, or launching and landing pad for all that travel has in store, bringing our unique attitude and atmosphere to each and every stay, now also in Manchester – a city internationally recognised for its creativity, individuality and innovation,” said Sandra Schulze-Potgieter, Vice President, Brand Management, EMEA, Marriott International.

Aloft by Marriott seized the exciting opportunity to bring the brand to Manchester, securing the Deansgate property ahead of its opening.

Aloft by Marriott Manchester City Centre at Deansgate is part of a landmark mixed-use development by Dean Street Developments, a luxury property developer with projects across the UK and Europe.
