Christmas Markets and Executive lounge at the Hilton

What a fantastic day out in Manchester!

I booked into the Hilton in Manchester for the night with some friends. We booked 3 executive rooms which give you access to the executive lounge for 2 hours where you can enjoy unlimited canapes and drinks. It is a little bit like the executive lounge on Royal Caribbean which you receive when you are a diamond member.

We met up early to enjoy lunch and look round the Christmas markets.

We dined at a Greek restaurant and chose the early bird menu where you can choose 2 course for £14. Great value and the food was delicious.

The markets were very busy and what was very different to previous years was the police presence. Armed response where at every entrance to the markets.

We checked into the hotel – our rooms weren’t ready so they allowed us early access to the lounge. Cloud 23 bar located on 23rd floor is stunning!

The views over the city are spectacular and my photo do it no justice.

The prosecco was the best I had tasted and the canopies were lovely too. The room soon became very busy by 6pm and the atmosphere was bustling!

We stayed until 8.30pm enjoying the wine and nibbles.

Our rooms were lovely and such a good size. The beds were comfy, bathroom luxurious and the views like no other! The windows were floor to ceiling and the view was the best I have ever seen.

The bustling city below seemed a million miles away!

Breakfast was fantastic! The choice was great and everything delicious.

After breakfast I enjoyed a swim – the pool was on the 2nd floor and still the views were amazing! You could look and see the monster size of the hotel and outside at the busy city slickers off to work on the busy Monday morning. I felt so relaxed!    

When was the last time you enjoyed a day out with your friends?

Have you anything planned to see the Christmas markets?

Thanks for reading
