Celebrate the festive season at King Street Townhouse, where six versatile event spaces across a Grade II-listed Manchester hotel offer everything from intimate dinners to skyline receptions for up to 100 guests.
For a larger party, the sixth-floor South Terrace & Lounge is the ultimate backdrop, offering panoramic views across the Manchester skyline, canapés and cocktails, and capacity for 80 guests seated or 100 standing. Flexible partitions allow the room to adapt from a relaxed drinks reception to a full seated dinner, while an extendable canopy and overhead heating mean the outdoor terrace stays usable whatever the weather.
For something more intimate, the Wine Cellar offers dinners beneath vaulted brick ceilings for up to 16 guests, pairing naturally with the adjoining Private Screening Room, which seats 20 in cinema-style for a festive film night or entertainment-led celebration. Together, the two spaces combine for a full private hire package.
Smaller lunches and gatherings suit the Mezzanine Lounge, which overlooks the hotel's all-day restaurant, The Tavern, and serves seasonal bowl food and boasts two presentation screens and Wi-Fi. This space seats 14, with a private dining table for up to 12, or holds 25 informally. The first-floor Small and Large Hubs offer further flexibility, whether used separately for smaller meetings and private dining or combined for a larger flowing party space.
Food and drink are tailored throughout the festive season, with bespoke menus available across every space. On Christmas Day itself, guests can settle into The Tavern for a specially crafted menu of nostalgic and seasonal dishes, complete with Laurent-Perrier Champagne. Groups can also enjoy a festive afternoon tea, whether you're celebrating with clients or bringing friends together. Served in the hotel's Lounge, the menu brings finger sandwiches, cranberry and nutmeg scones and festive cakes, with large groups treated with the same care as smaller bookings.
With 40 individually designed bedrooms and an ESPA spa also on-site, the celebrations can easily extend into an overnight stay.
