PRESS RELEASE

Lifestyle hotel brand Malmaison announces the launch of Malmaison Manchester Deansgate, opening its doors 1st February 2024.

Sat a stone's throw from the bustling Deansgate thoroughfare which connects the city's many exciting neighbourhoods, this 4-star property will offer 70 rooms and suites, many with views over the picturesque Albert Square.

Interiors have been given the 'Mal Treatment' taking inspiration from the city's industrial heritage and contributions to art and music, juxtaposed with nods to the building's brutalist façade to create an experience that is as bold and diverse as the city of Manchester itself.

Guests can rest their heads in bedrooms that pay homage to the retro designs of the 60s and 70s, referencing the iconic G Plan furniture of this era, a benchmark for classic British design. Illustrative murals will be a central feature throughout, featuring an artistic fusion of nature motifs.

Jonathan Livesey, Group Development Director at Malmaison & Hotel du Vin says: “Malmaison Manchester Deansgate translates themes so intrinsic to the story of Manchester into its design while adding a dose of our signature Mal style including bold patterns, powerful colours, and striking artwork that will make a visit to Malmaison Manchester Deansgate a truly unique experience.”

Hungry for more? Signature restaurant Malmaison Bar & Grill will seat 114 guests and serve a stylish fusion grill menu, offering a contemporary takes on classic and seasonal dishes, carefully curated by Chef Director John Woodward, served alongside a curated wine list and bar menu.

Manchester Deansgate will also play host to Malmaison's second Sora rooftop bar and restaurant in the UK, seating 116 guests across its restaurant and intimate terrace that overlooks the historic Manchester Town Hall. Guests can mix and match small plates from a selection of sushi, Robatayaki and Pan-Asian fusion style tapas dishes, and sip signature cocktails while taking in the striking view of the city.

Scott Harper, COO Malmaison & Hotel du Vin says, “Driving our food and beverage offering forward is of huge importance to Malmaison and as such we're also incredibly proud to open our second SORA following its massive success at Malmaison York. Bringing SORA to Manchester alongside our signature Malmaison Bar & Grill made complete sense, reinvigorating Malmaison's food and beverage offering in the city, and further positioning the brand as a unique dining destination.”

Manchester Deansgate will be Malmaison's eighteenth property in its ever-expanding UK portfolio, and it's second in the northern metropolis of Manchester.
