Lowry
50 Dearmans Place, Chapel Wharf
The hotel of choice for visiting actors, politicians and Premiership footballers, the Lowry is’s original five-star hotel. The address may be Salford, but it’s located right on the City Centre’s edge, on the banks of the murky River Irwell. Everything is as it should be – huge, achingly hip rooms with super-sized beds, original modern art, discreet service and clued-up staff. A swanky spa and the serene River Restaurant, run by champion chef Eyck Zimmer, are further draws.
