CitySuites II

CitySuites II towers side by side with CitySuites I, just across the River Irwell on the Salford side of the city centre. Both offer smart boutique self-catering but these two twin aparthotels are far from the same.

CitySuites II has meeting rooms, boardrooms and conference rooms making it ideal for business travellers and delegates. It’s topped by the super-luxe Supersuites penthouse, and has a number of options for high-end city centre stays.

There’s also a good selection of studio and one-bedroom apartments, plus larger apartments for group or family stays.

Everything is a mix of the home comforts you’re used to (such as fully-equipped kitchens and spacious living areas) and upscale touches. Think ghd hairdryers, Nespresso coffee machines and The White Company toiletries.

Guests have exclusive access to a steam room, and like its sister aparthotel CitySuites I, it has an 18m swimming pool and 24-hour gym.

Breakfast, lunch, dinner and drinks are provided by Embankment Kitchen, a relaxed all-day dining destination. It’s located on the ground floor of CitySuites I but is open to all.
