The Neighborhood:
The Northern Quarter in Manchester City Centre is an ever-changing, eclectic neighbourhood full of personality and creativity.
It’s known for its street art, independent spirit, and some of the best cafés, bars and restaurants in the city — from cheap and cheerful curry houses to trendy eateries, cocktail specialists, tiki bars, whisky lounges, and even a retro-arcade basement bar. Whatever your taste, you’ll find something here. Foodies will be pleased to know that two of Manchester’s Michelin-starred restaurants — Skof and Mana — are both within walking distance.
Just across the road from the apartment is Affleck’s Palace — a legendary emporium of alternative fashion, collectables and independent traders spread across four quirky floors. The area is also packed with record shops (especially for vinyl), comic book and board game stores, vintage clothing boutiques, and one-of-a-kind homeware and gift shops. Roam the streets and you’ll discover something new around every corner.
By day, the Northern Quarter buzzes with coffee shops, creatives and casual shoppers. By night, it transforms into one of the most popular nightlife hubs in the North-West of England, drawing in locals and visitors alike.
You’re also within walking distance of the AO Arena, Co-op Live Arena, Manchester City’s Etihad Stadium, Canal Street, Chinatown, Market Street, the Arndale shopping centre, both Manchester universities, and major transport links including Manchester Piccadilly and Victoria train stations. Old Trafford can be reached easily via Metrolink, and Manchester Airport is just 30 minutes away by train or taxi.
It’s one of the most exciting, colourful and well-connected places to stay in Manchester — and right on your doorstep.
