Set within a beautifully restored Grade II-listed building in the heart of Manchester, The Rex Hotel offers a collection of distinctive event spaces for everything from birthday parties and baby showers to conferences, drinks receptions, summer parties and corporate events. Combining historic architecture with contemporary design, the venue features rooftop entertaining spaces, private dining rooms and hidden vault-style event spaces, alongside on-site accommodation and bespoke event packages.
Guests can choose from a range of flexible spaces depending on the style and size of their event. Reign, the hotel’s restaurant, can accommodate up to 80 guests and is ideal for larger celebrations, networking events and private dining experiences. The sixth-floor Private Dining Room offers a more intimate setting for up to 28 guests, with arched windows and impressive views across Manchester.
For exclusive events, The Treasury provides one of the hotel’s most distinctive spaces. Hidden within the former vaults of 100 King Street, it blends heritage features with contemporary design, making it well suited to conferences, private dinners, screenings and bespoke celebrations. The Strong Room, located behind the building’s original vault doors, offers another unique option, complete with a full-size snooker table reimagined as a statement dining table and a large screen for presentations, private screenings and live sporting events.
The rooftop terrace at Reserve provides a striking backdrop for drinks receptions and summer gatherings. Featuring marble-topped tables, cushioned seating, large parasols and panoramic skyline views, it’s an inviting space for relaxed social events and celebrations.
Food and drink can be tailored to suit each occasion, from canapes and cocktails to private dining menus and larger seated meals. Menus draw inspiration from Reign’s contemporary kitchen, showcasing seasonal ingredients and modern techniques, while drinks packages can include wines, Champagne, beers, cocktails, soft drinks and hot beverages. The events team is on hand to help create a bespoke experience.
