Why Hire
Mercure Manchester Piccadilly is particularly strong for large residential conferences and events that need substantial capacity without moving into a dedicated convention centre. The International Suite can accommodate 800 theatre-style or 650 for dinner, while the hotel's smaller rooms provide a useful range of breakouts.
The combination of 280 bedrooms, central Manchester location and proximity to Piccadilly station also makes it practical for national conferences, awards and multi-day corporate events.
