Venue

Hotel Designs Meet Up North took place on the South Terrace of the King Street Townhouse on 18 July 2018.

The heated south-facing terrace with overhead canopy and two-way facing fire is dressed with comfy alfresco furniture. The spires and clock tower of the Manchester Town Hall take centre stage within the spectacular views. The eclectic mix of chimneys and rooftops amongst the skyline tell an architectural story, a time line of a growing city. Inside the south terrace lounge is a large versatile space with solid wooden flooring, informal furnishings and a bespoke wooden bar.
