Chancellors Hotel at the University of Manchester has reopened following a £4million transformation.

Chancellors Hotel is a 72-bedroom Grade II-listed extended mansion house set within 5.5-acres of gardens.

The mansion was built in 1850 for Sir Joseph Whitworth and in 1882 was leased to CP Scott, editor of The Manchester Guardian.

As well as revamping all the bedrooms, a refurbishment has also been carried out in the public areas, including the hotel reception, meeting rooms, corridors, bar, lounges and the conservatory. A new lift has also been installed.

Bedrooms at Chancellors Hotel feature a flat screen television, hair dryer, telephone, complimentary tea and coffee, free unlimited  high speed broadband and wi-fi plus free car parking.

Chancellors Hotel has a selection of seven meeting rooms with the Flowers Theatre the largest seating up to 130 delegates theatre style.

Chancellors Hotel is located close to Manchester University’s Owens Park complex and the Armitage Sports Centre in Fallowfield - two miles south of Manchester city centre.
