Preparatory works have begun at the site of Manchester’s second Motel One development at 11-15 Cross Street in the city centre.
The 19th century Victorian façade of the building will be retained with the 1980s office block behind it demolished to make way for the new seven-storey, 298-bedroom Motel One.
Building work is scheduled to complete autumn 2017.
Motel One Manchester Piccadilly is expected to open later in 2015 with 330 bedrooms - in London Road facing Manchester Piccadilly station.
