Travelodge has expanded its presence in Manchester with the opening of its latest hotel – the 104-room Manchester Central Riverside – offering even more great value accommodation in the city. This hotel is located less than a mile from Manchester city centre and benefits from over 100 car parking spaces.

Access to the hotel from the motorway network is quick and easy, with the site just an 18-minute drive from the M6 and less than 8-minutes from the M60.

With good public transport links too, with buses serving the city centre passing the site and the major Deansgate-Castlefield railway and metro interchange less than a mile away, Manchester Central Riverside Travelodge caters to both business and leisure guests.

Sports enthusiasts are well catered for too, with the iconic Old Trafford – home of Manchester United – less than a mile and a half from the new Travelodge, whilst the Etihad Stadium – where Manchester City play – is reachable in around 10 minutes by car and around 35 minutes by public transport. The National Football Museum is also nearby for those keen to dive into the beautiful game’s rich heritage.

Guests staying at Manchester Central Riverside Travelodge can enjoy easy access to some of the city’s top cultural attractions, including the Museum of Science and Industry, Manchester Museum, the Bridgewater Hall and Manchester Art Gallery – all just a short distance away. Families looking for a fun day out will also find Legoland Manchester and SEA LIFE Manchester around 15-minutes away by car.

For those planning to indulge in a bit of retail therapy, the hotel is within walking distance of the vibrant city centre. Shoppers can explore Manchester Arndale for a wide range of high-street favourites, or browse luxury brands at Selfridges or Harvey Nichols.

For business visitors to Manchester, the hotel is 1 mile from the Manchester Central Convention Complex.

Travelodge, which operates over 610 hotels across the UK, Republic of Ireland and Spain, is continuing to grow and is committed to expanding its hotel network to offer more choice to its customers and support local communities through job creation across the UK. Manchester Central Riverside Travelodge is the chain’s 18th hotel in Greater Manchester.

The hotel will undergo a full refurbishment over the coming months and will be refitted to Travelodge’s brand standards, featuring a new look and feel design.
