Kimpton Clocktower Hotel Manchester

Industrial Glamour In the Heart of Manchester City Centre
Visit Our Luxurious Manchester Hotel
With its Victorian architecture and fresh approach to hospitality, Kimpton Clocktower Hotel is the perfect expression of its setting: Manchester, a city where tradition and modernity meet and where artisanship reigns supreme. Housed in a magnificent terracotta Grade II–listed building, Kimpton Clocktower has a history that dates back to 1890, when the building first opened as The Refuge Assurance Company headquarters. Today, it’s a destination where glamour and luxury meets one-of-a-kind craftsmanship—and where there are new things to discover at every turn.

With its namesake clocktower, grand Victorian façade, Kimpton Clocktower Hotel impresses from the get-go, standing proudly on its street corner and distinguishing itself from its gritty surroundings. Hints of greenery, wafting music, and a Mancunian welcome from the doorman hint at what’s to come: an approachable destination that’s never stuffy—one that fuses sumptuous details (like the lobby’s beautiful glass dome and signature bronze horse sculpture) with raw, real artisan touches. Every interaction is warm yet fluff-free, making our Manchester hotel a draw for international travellers and locals alike, who come together, whisky in-hand, to breathe new life into one of the city’s most famous buildings.
