It’s also in a quieter side of town but still within an easy walk of the city center and its nightlife.
Hotel Gotham – A luxury 5-star boutique hotel with a twist: the hotel has a Gotham City theme—yes, from Batman. Much of ‘Greater Manchester’ is very residential. The theme doesn’t detract from the luxury, though.
The wooden paneling and brick walls left over from the warehouse give it a homey feel that blends beautifully with more modern furnishings. The place is massive, with décor resembling a traditional Irish pub rather than a typical gay bar.

Queer Lit – In the spirit of Paris Is Burning, reading is fundamental. The rooms are simple yet stylish, and there’s a jazzy-looking open lobby that combines a restaurant, bar, and lounge. The fun vibes are amplified by the drag and cabaret shows frequently held downstairs.
The Rembrandt (The REM Bar) – REM bar is a staple in the Gay Village and one of the oldest.
For an entire week, the Gay Village becomes party central, with three main stages: The Village Stage, The Alan Turing Stage in Sackville Park, and the Indoor Arena. Downstairs there’s the “Brasserie,” which serves classic British dishes alongside a variety of cocktails and wines. Most importantly of all, though, Manchester is one of the big three “gay cities” of England – the others being London and Brighton.
It’s a unique choice for a sit-down bar and features an extensive cocktail and wine list. Their studio units include kitchens and dining areas, making it great for those who want to cut costs by not eating out every night. Highlights include “Operation Poo,” an interactive journey through the digestive system.
