Overview

Discover The Rex, an exclusive retreat, shaped by indulgence and refined hospitality. Situated at 100 King Street in the central conservation area, The Rex occupies the former Midland Bank, one of Manchester’s most distinguished buildings. Designed in 1928 by Sir Edwin Lutyens, its neoclassical form and subtle Art Deco detailing give it a presence that requires no introduction. Behind its distinctive façade, a different kind of indulgence unfolds. Intimate rooms, elevated dining and discreet social spaces shape an atmosphere defined by character and intent. This is The Rex, where sanctuary is served. Serviced by a lift, all rooms and suites are air-conditioned and feature a telephone, a flat-screen TV and facilities for making coffee and tea. The bathroom is complete with free toiletries, slippers and a bath or shower. 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. Valet Parking, our delightful Concierge team is on hand day and night. Simply arrive at the hotel doors and hand over your keys. A simple check and the rest will be done for you. Spaces in our private car park are limited, to ensure a place please email Rex_Concierge@leonardohotels.com Prior to check out, please give us 30 minutes' notice for your vehicle to be retuned. This can be done by dialling 0 or 7023 from your in-room telephone. The hotel is 400 metres from Deansgate, 500 metres from Bridgewater Hall and 500 metres from Manchester Central. Manchester Airport is 13 km away.
