Contemporary architecture, avant-garde British style and a dash of Spanish warmth and friendliness combine at INNSiDE by Meliã, part of Manchester’s bustling First Street development.

Constructed from a mixture of glazing and red glazed terracotta panels, the building that houses this four star hotel is one of the most striking in the area, designed under the theme of a theatre curtain, in response to the context in which the building sits, adjacent to HOME. The interior matches up, accessible but innovative, modern but aware of the city’s heritage.

The staff at INNSiDE by Spanish hotel chain Meliã understand the importance of a warm and enthusiastic greeting as you enter the spacious foyer, where you’ll be made to feel right at home. Accommodations starts at around £110 a night, and there are plenty of options to choose from, from standard rooms to luxurious suites, each providing minimalist, contemporary comfort.

On the ground floor, you’ll find Gino D’Acampo Manchester, a dining destination in its own right, with a private entrance on First Street square. It’s a beautiful, 200-seated restaurant and bar with floor to ceiling windows that lets the natural light flood in as you tuck into premium Italian fare. The outdoor garden area, meanwhile, is furnished with a lush faux lawn, flowers, fairy lights and patio heaters aplenty.

Elsewhere there are large open spaces in which to rest, work or socialise, a revolutionary fitness centre, and a host of great activities to discover. In the past we’ve been down to takeovers by local beer experts SEVEN BRO7HERS, and an event led by Manchester-based Chocolatier, Oli The Choc, who hosted a pop-up chocolate-making workshop. These kinds of collaborations with local makers and creators define the spirit of INNSiDE at Meliã, which offers a vibrant city experience that’s reflective of the best of modern Manchester.
