Gotham is presented as a plush hotel, with an exclusive club bar and a fabulous dining venue. It can be a escape, a multisensory experience and above all, a place to have fun. Gotham is located at 100 King Street in the central conservation area and is housed in one of the city’s grandest, listed buildings – a former premises of Midland Bank. Standing at the head of King Street, proudly atop the hill amidst architectural nods to the Grecian and Baroque, Hotel Gotham draws inspiration from these surroundings and rises up as an imposing castle of stone and steel. Designed by Edwin Lutyens in 1928 in the Art Deco style of the time, is it any wonder it was referred to as ‘The King’? In terms of the architecture, the neoclassical design is unusual for Manchester. But we quite like that.
