★★★★★5-star hotel

"The room is most definitely a showstopper, there's certainly no doubting the attention to detail that has gone into bringing this new Art Deco-themed venue to life in the former bank building at the top of King Street.

StayScore Analysis

Why this hotel scores 89/100

The Rex is best suited to travellers who want a dramatic, design-forward stay in the heart of Manchester. Housed in a former bank at the top of King Street, this Art Deco revival leans into theatrical style — rooms are showstoppers and the public areas feel deliberately glamorous. It works well for couples, style-conscious solo city-breakers and anyone making a night of Manchester’s theatres, restaurants and bars. The hotel favours personality and centrality over a quieter, low-key neighbourhood atmosphere.
