The Palace Hotel
Oxford Street, Manchester, GB M60 7HA
Location. Once home to the Refuge Insurance Company, the Palace Hotel is housed in an imposing terracotta grade II-listed building with a distinctive 217-foot tall clock tower. It is located on bustling Oxford Street in central Manchester. The nearest airport is Manchester International (MAN), 10 miles away.
Hotel Features. The hotel has eight conference and meeting rooms including a 1,000 capacity ballroom. There is a business centre including PC and printer, and wireless Internet is available in the meeting rooms. Across the street, the Palace car park is available where valet parking is possible by prior arrangement.
The Palace Hotel's Tempus restaurant serves modern international dishes, while drinks, light meals and afternoon teas are available all day in the lounge bar.
Guests can make use of the GL14 health club, 100 metres away, which includes a gym, indoor swimming pool, spa tub, steam room, beauty treatment rooms and hair salon (for a fee).
Guestrooms. The Palace Hotel has 257 guestrooms spread over five floors. Rooms vary in size depending on which wing of the building they are in, and some have period features such as high ceilings or wood- panelled walls. All have classic decor with curtains, upholstery and carpets in warm colours. Modern amenities include satellite TV with pay movies and video games, high-speed Internet connections, tea and coffee making facilities, and hair dryers. Tiled bathrooms have shower/tub combinations and complimentary toiletries.
Expert Tip. Manchester's famous 'curry mile' starts just over a mile from the hotel in the Rusholme area of the city. Around 20 years ago there were just a few Indian sweet centres, such as the Sanam; these days around 50 establishments entice diners with dazzling neon lights, and a wide range of Asian food.
