Leonardo Royal Hotels has released the first images showcasing the extensive refurbishment of The Midland Hotel ahead of its June 2020 completion.
The £14m refurbishment project will see all of the hotel’s bedrooms redesigned, as well as transformed public areas.
The work will also see the hotel’s main foyer feature a brand new, split level bar built on a raised platform opposite Adam Reid at The French.
The Midland’s food and beverage offering will also receive a brand-new look as part of the transformation, with current on-site restaurant, Mr Cooper’s, undergoing a full rebrand, turning into a British bistro with an all-day menu offering.
In addition to the public areas, the hotel’s 312 bedrooms are currently undergoing refurbishment, with approximately 120 bedrooms already complete. Leonardo said the rooms will feature a “restful, neutral colour palette” with soft padded armchairs and glowing lamps.
Jason Carruthers, MD of Leonardo Hotels UK and Ireland, said: “The acquisition of The Midland hotel back in November 2018 marked the start of an extremely exciting chapter for Leonardo Hotels in the UK. The £14m investment allows us to make our own mark on this iconic Manchester property, whilst maintaining the hotel’s renowned grandeur.
“We’re very happy with how the refurbishment is progressing and look forward to welcoming guests, old and new to experience the stylish new surrounding of The Midland from June onwards.”
The refurbishment follows the full rebrand of the on-site spa which transitioned into Rena Spa at The Midland in November last year.
The new spa offers a selection of specialist treatments including a range of Wellness by Germaine De Cappuccini treatments specially designed for those who have or are recovering from cancer.

“I have been using Key Reservations for nearly 10years now, their service is second to none. Within my role at Finsbury Food Group, it is a weight off my mind that I have Michelle at the other end of a phone or email who will help me out no end. The service they provide is excellent, the whole team are very friendly and helpful. The knowledge and advice they offer about various hotels and meeting venues is invaluable, they take out all the hassle of looking for accommodation and meeting venues. I don’t know what I would do without them!”
