Gotham is presented as a plush hotel, with an exclusive club bar and a fabulous dining venue. It can be an escape, a multisensory experience and above all, a place to have fun. Gotham is located at 100 King Street in the central conservation area and is housed in one of the city's grandest, listed buildings - a former premises of Midland Bank.
Standing at the head of King Street, proudly atop the hill amidst architectural nods to the Grecian and Baroque, Hotel Gotham draws inspiration from these surroundings and rises up as an imposing castle of stone and steel. Designed by Edwin Lutyens in 1928 in the Art Deco style of the time, is it any wonder it was referred to as 'The King'?

Services
At Hotel Gotham we don't discourage a little bit of decadence. After all, we've yet to meet the guest who books into a 5-star hotel with the aim of behaving better than they do at home. Each of our 55 bedrooms and five Inner Sanctum Suites is a full-on sensory experience. Everything you see and everything you touch, from the extravagantly opulent linen to the brass and leather of the fittings, is designed to make you sigh with satisfaction.
Whatever Honey conjures up for you - Ursula Andress emerging from the Caribbean ocean, or in our case rhyming slang for 'money' - it will mean something else once you've eaten at the 2 AA Rosette awarded restaurant at Hotel Gotham. When you stay with us, we assume you'll work up an appetite, and we know we have to be good to compete with the rest of Manchester's fantastic foodie scene.
Bread. Cash. Call it what you like. Round these parts, we call it Brass, with a short, sharp 'a'. With a nod to this building's history as a bank and an acknowledgment of what makes the world go round, welcome to Club Brass. Open to members and Gotham guests only, Club Brass is a VIP lounge on the 7th floor.
We are delighted to announce that Gerald's cousin from Crewe joined us to offer a luxury chauffeur service.

We've been talking about coming here for a year now, and boy it didn't disappoint! Our suite was spotless, with great little touches. The valet parking and concierge staff were awesome on arrival and depature. A welcome french martini was a big plus for me! Great roof top bar, where the waitress made fabulous drink recommendations based off our first drinks order. The turn down service was a nice touch. We will be visiting again. Thank you!

Great room, love the decor, very comfortable. Concierge service excellent. Would have given 5 stars but breakfast service poor. Staff were pleasant, but there appeared to be a lack of organisation. Shortage of crockery at self service area and running short of choices, had to ask for coffee and toast several times before they arrived. Used plates and glasses not removed so accumulated on table and nearby radiator. Maybe just an off day, but disappointing after an otherwise lovely stay.

Really lovely boutique hotel, perfect central location right in the heart of the city centre. Quirky. Very well done. Luxurious. Check ou the brass bar at the top of the the hotel, it's stunning and really nice views over the city centre at night, surprisingly reasonable prices as well, it's only open to residents and members which makes it a nice getaway from the rabble of local bars, the breakfast was superb and the staff really go out of their way to make u feel special be aware there is a service charge on top of the room price, which is a bit cheeky but hey ho. Rooms are lovely very well kept

A few months ago, on a lovely Sunday I had one of the best afternoon tea's ever! The atmosphere and the friendly staff made our experience even better. The selection of tea flavors was incredible and a few more glasses of bubbly at the end made our experience unforgettable. The location was great and we had a table by the window and the view was exactly like the pictures we saw online ''amazing''. I always wanted to visit Gotham and I'm glad I did, would definitely recommend it to everyone!

For a place that charges 400£ on Friday and Saturday night, it was very disappointing to come back to the hotel wanting to entertain friends for drinks and to have the main bar "club brass" closed.
Three out of my five night stay they closed before 1030 and weekend by midnight.
The room was nice, but for that much, they also didn't offer international conversion chargers for wall sockets and it was an item only made available for purchase.
The free "continental" breakfast was made up of mediocre danishes, and generic cured meats. If you want eggs, you had to pay

After an afternoon of over indulgence at Hawksmoor to celebrate a friends birthday, we decided to join him on the roof terrace of his hotel - this being Hotel Gotham at the top of King Street.
Having heard lots of great things about this place and with me working in the banking & finance industry, I was more than curious to see what the former HSBC had been turned into.
Having been in Jamie's Italian and seen the vaults had been turned into individual unisex toilets, colour me intrigued!

God only knows why it's taken me a good month to write this review - possibly because Hotel Gotham was so good words simply could not do it justice but hey I'm going to give it a good try...
From the minute I stepped in, to the minute I left, I felt like I was in hotel heaven but with the theme of Batman's home town. Which lets face it, has to be one of the best themes going.
The beauty of HG is that it's not in your face and their isn't actually any sign of Batman anywhere - what remains is the eery feel of how you imagine Gotham town to be (shown by images on the walls

First off I should probably say I'm slapping myself on the back right now for choosing this hotel - so so good and thankfully it lived up to the hype!
Great staff, great location, amazing style and architecture, extremely unique - coupled with a boutique feeling and attention to detail meant that every part of our stay was 100% win!
The bar 'club brass' was perfect for drinks at any time, the rooms were comfy and quiet, with the club rooms still fairly large - the bathroom and shower were all encompassing and lovely to be in.
We ate out for breakfast and dinner each day so I

Quite simply the best hotel I have ever stayed at! If I could give out 6 or even 7 stars I would. I've never stayed in a hotel where before I leave the room I tidy it in some sort attempt to maintain its perfection!
I usually judge a hotel on three elements; service, the shower and the bed.
I'm pleased to say that Hotel Gotham came up trumps in all of these areas. I had limited interaction with the staff, this is a good thing, but when I did they were professional charming and polite - I had a chat with the concierge on the first evening and on the third evening he remembered our conversation

Swoon! I am in love with this hotel. What a luxurious hotel to stay in for three nights.
While the address is King Street, the entrance is actually on Spring Gardens. Reception is on level 6 (there's a concierge downstairs who will direct you). Check-in was simple with £100 per night taken on my card for expenses. The room I was in was the basic one but only really in size - the best is massive and super comfy and the bathroom is actually quite large. The room was perfectly fine for one person staying and wouldn't be an issue for two, so I actually don't have any complaint about

I don't think I have ever stayed at a hotel where I literally don't want to leave. This is possibly one of the nicest and well though out places I have ever stayed!
I am a big fan of the term 'the devil is in the detail' ...at the Gotham everything has been thought out and fits the theme perfectly. The art on the walls, the mini bar, the carpet in the halls, the wall paper and literally every detail here have been fine tuned to make your stay the best it can be.
My favourite touches are things like the pig cookies that are left for you each night and the fact the lighting

Five. Stars. All. The. Way. I seriously never want to move out of this hotel. Like, ever. It's honestly my favourite hotel I've ever stayed in. Fact. What makes it so good? So. Many. Things. Let me try to list them;
1. I'm such a sucker for a turn down. And these guys do it WELL. You return to your room at night with the lights dimmed, the (fake) fur rug strewn over your bed, and dramatic classical music playing in the background. It's like walking into a movie each and every time.
2. Little jars of pig-shaped cookies left for you every evening
3. The quality of the mini

I booked Hotel Gotham for a night for my bf's 30th and we checked in early enough (with a strangely robotic receptionist!) to have some time to enjoy the outdoor terrace of the 7th floor bar in daylight. The view is not as good as Manchester House but it's fun to be in amongst all the grand old buildings at the heart of the city centre. Rugs are provided and the staff appeared to be trained to come and sit with you to discuss each drinks order, which is useful if you're hesitating about the large cocktail menu. I had the Corpse Reviver No 2, a great suggestion from the bartender

Nicely themed place, based on Batman Gotham City. Had afternoon tea which tasted really good. The service was attentive and polite and the place was clean. The food tasted good and the coffee definitely was better than average. The only issue I have is the length of time it took for things to come. We waited quite a while for each item of food to come, particularly sandwiches. I appreciate that it takes time to hand make things but sandwiches do not take 20-30 minutes. Otherwise generally pleased.

Two words: Swit Swoo. This is a grand, swanky new hotel that absolutely wowed me on a sleepy Wednesday evening.
I attended Hotel Gotham as a venue for dining; so I unfortunately can't comment on the hotel room itself or how the venue rates for accommodation and looking after guests. But I can however, comment on the exquisite food and drink!
The dining area is light and airy - vintage styled windows with a classic stripe wallpaper design and lots of quirky typewriters fixed on the walls with 'Gotham' newspapers half printed. If your one of those who takes millions of photos of
