The Rex - formerly Hotel Gotham, Manchester

Discover The Rex, an exclusive retreat, shaped by indulgence and refined hospitality.

Situated at 100 King Street in the central conservation area, The Rex occupies the former Midland Bank, one of Manchester’s most distinguished buildings. Designed in 1928 by Sir Edwin Lutyens, its neoclassical form and subtle Art Deco detailing give it a presence that requires no introduction.

Behind its distinctive façade, a different kind of indulgence unfolds. Intimate rooms, elevated dining and discreet social spaces shape an atmosphere defined by character and intent.

This is The Rex, where sanctuary is served.

Serviced by a lift, all rooms and suites are air-conditioned and feature a telephone, a flat-screen TV and facilities for making coffee and tea. The bathroom is complete with free toiletries, slippers and a bath or shower. Each of our 55 bedrooms and five Inner Sanctum Suites is a full-on sensory experience. Everything you see and everything you touch, from the extravagantly opulent linen to the brass and leather of the fittings, is designed to make you sigh with satisfaction.

Valet parking service, available for £45 per night, our delightful Concierge team is on hand day and night. Simply arrive at the hotel doors and hand over your keys.
