Hotel Information : Imagine a place where the boho chic of New York's East Village meets with the glitzy cosmopolitan self esteem of London's West End - and somewhere in the maelstrom, you will find Manchester's Canal Street - situated alongside the Rochdale Canal, as the name would suggest. Velvet Manchester has been instrumental in, and indeed integral to Canal Street's Cafe Society for more than a decade, maintaining its place as the Village's premiere venue to eat and drink, chill or party as the mood takes you, amidst the ever changing and evolving social-scape of this unique and exciting destination in Manchester City Centre.
In March 2009, the addition of the chic 19 bedroom Velvet Hotel, occupying the four floors above the Bar & Restaurant, will take things to a higher echelon, offering individually designed luxury bedrooms and balcony suites.
March 2009 sees the dawning of a new era for both Velvet and the Manchester hotel circuit, as Velvet sprinkles its unique chutzpah and creates the plush 4 Star Velvet Hotel. Hotel stays will be taken to an opulent new level for business and leisure guests alike. 19 fully air conditioned decadent boudoirs, individually designed with the utmost of tender loving care, will comprise all of the things you would expect of an exceptionally high standard of Bedroom, airy Balcony Suite and lavish Duplex Suite - digital TV, complimentary Wi-Fi access, in-room safe, bespoke tea & coffee making facilities, fully stocked mini bars, plus some things that you might not, like iPod docking stations, in-room cocktail and canapé packages and lovely Burt's Bees toiletries. Careful detailing and distinctive design elements will ooze from every crevice, creating a contemporary feel with a twist, and coupled with attentive yet understated service with a smile. A choice of Continental or Full English Breakfast - all locally sourced and with a few Velvet curveballs thrown in for good measure, will be served in the Velvet Restaurant on basement level.
Room Information : King Rooms are by no means standard, each offers at least 200 sqft of wonderfully decadent individual design, incorporating en-suite bathrooms and king or over-sized king beds, with exceptional quality bed and bathroom linens. Each room has its own rich personality, offering guests either their personal favourite on a regular basis or something different every time they stay.

Food & Beverages : Velvet – The Restaurant
A warm and friendly welcome waits at the Velvet Restaurant, once you have taken the 'walk of faith' across the wow factor glass fronted fish tank under the stairs at the entrance. The Restaurant matches its memorable design features with a combination of excellent food and eclectic music style and is open throughout the day for a soup and sandwich lunch, a sharing platter, a pizza or a thoroughly modern twist on classic British casual comfort food. Throughout the past decade and then some, the Restaurant's popularity has continued to increase, with a mixed clientele of locals and visitors to the city co-mingling to create an inclusive ambience contributory to its huge success.
Velvet – The Bar
Indulge in a touch of Moulin Rouge - Manchester style in the Velvet Lounge Bar, which is frequented either as a standalone destination venue for drinking and socialising or for pre and post dining drinks for Restaurant customers. You will feel equally as at home in the Lounge Bar whether you are partaking of after work drinks with colleagues, reveling to the funky muzak DJs at the weekend, or simply chilling with a Sunday newspaper and watching the world go by. Needless to say, and as has come to be expected of Velvet, you will be enveloped in the trademark truly indulgent decor.
