Velvet Hotel

The long-anticipated opening of Velvet Hotel on Canal Street is upon us – and they are very generously giving away 20 rooms for bed and breakfast to Manchester Confidential readers whose job involves booking business accommodation.

Mark Cain of Velvet said: “The idea for the hotel is something we've been working on for a couple of years now. The bar is already designed very Rococo/Moulin Rouge-like. We've used the same architect again and think the decor is very reflective of the bar/restaurant.

“The entrance for the hotel is separate from the bar. Bedrooms are boudoirs with individual prints and textiles, and there will be specially commissioned wallpaper covered in voiles to give that subliminal look. We've got king-size and super-king-size beds and special two-person baths in some rooms.”

If you win, you can book a room for two between Sunday 22 March and Friday 27 March. It's ideal if you fancy a night in a plush hotel in central Manchester with a bar and restaurant on site.
