AMBS Crowne
Plaza Hotel & Staybridge Suites Hotel
This hotel copmplex under
construction on the corner of Booth Street West and
Higher Cambridge Street is part of an £84million
redevelopment of the Alliance Manchester Business
School. The University's website says that, "...
InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG®), one of the
world’s leading hotel companies has announced the
signing of two further hotels for Manchester,
continuing the growth of its UK estate. The Crowne
Plaza ® Manchester – Oxford Road and Staybridge
Suites® Manchester – Oxford Road properties are
being built as part of The University of
Manchester‘s £1 billion campus development.
The two hotels are part of Bruntwood’s wider
redevelopment of Manchester Business School (MBS)
and will adjoin its new two-storey Executive
Education Centre, which will provide a new home for
the business school’s corporate leadership and
management programmes. The 210-room Crowne
Plaza® hotel and the 116-room Staybridge Suites®
property will both operate under a franchise
agreement with existing owner partner M&L
Hospitality and will be managed by Cycas
Hospitality. Located within
close proximity to Manchester city centre, visitors
to MBS and the University, along with long-stay
corporate business clients, will be the hotels’
major demand drivers."
