InterContinental Manchester Deansgate on the way as the Hilton rebrands

Well, the rumours that something was ‘up’ at Hilton Manchester Deansgate, situated in the Beetham Tower, were true.

The management contract with Hilton was apparently coming to an end and the rooms were getting very tired. What would happen?

Now we know. InterContinental is coming to Manchester.

The 264 room hotel will rebrand as InterContinental Manchester Deansgate by 2027.

It will remain open during the transformation and will operate as an independent hotel – The Manchester Deansgate Hotel – whilst the work is being done. It will be bookable on the IHG website during this period, despite being unbranded.

The hotel sits in the 47-storey Beetham Tower, taking up 22 floors. It fills a hole in the InterContinental portfolio, with the brand have two sites in London and one in Edinburgh.

Hilton can console itself with the fact that, as we exclusively revealed, the largest Hampton in the UK is being developed in a new skyscraper in front of Beetham Tower.

Other upcoming developments in the city include Marriott’s W brand.

The date of the switch is not yet known. Hilton is still accepting bookings up to 30th April 2026.
