HOTELS

Option 1: Holiday Inn Express Cc – Oxford Road

http://www.ihg.com/holidayinnexpress/hotels/gb/en/manchester/mchor/hoteldetail

This is the closest hotel to the Manchester School of Architecture/Manchester Metropolitan University/University of Manchester (5 min walk). We have an arrangement with the hotel so you can get a fully flexible room rate including breakfast for £62.00 per night, if you mention that you are coming for the Manchester University conference/event. If you book through some discount sites and don’t mind fixed dates etc. then you could get it for a bit less.

Option 2: Palace Hotel – Oxford Road

http://www.palace-hotel-manchester.co.uk/

Also very close but the rates for the conference dates are more than double of the Holiday Inn Express.
