If you are thinking of venturing into Manchester city centre to take advantage of the January sales in 2010, then you should also think about making it more of an occasion. Forget the usual rush caused by not wanting to miss your train; instead, why not stay in one of the many Piccadilly hotels that are offering January special offers?

For instance, at the Britannia Hotel Manchester, you can stay for 7 nights (including dinner, bed AND breakfast!) for only £126 per person. This is valid during the first two weeks of January 2010, so start your post-festive shopping early! Contact the Britannia Manchester on 0871 222 0017 to book your January visit.

You could also stay at the The Place Hotel, which is perfectly situated for Piccadilly train station, and only a two minute walk away from Manchester’s main shopping area.

The Place is offering a one bed apartment (sleeps up to two people) from £72 per night or a two bedroom apartment (sleeps up to four people) for £102 per night.

If you would like to make your reservation please contact The Place’s reservations team on 0161 778 7500 or email reservations@theplacehotel.com quoting 'January Sale'.
