Today, Edwardian Hotels London, one of the UK’s largest privately-owned hotel groups, and Radisson Hotel Group, have announced that following a multi-million-pound renovation, the Manchester property is relaunching as The Edwardian Manchester, A Radisson Collection Hotel.

The Free Trade Hall has played an integral role in the UK’s history, and has long been an important spot for those visiting and living in the city. From the political; the Free Trade Hall was constructed in 1853–56 on St Peter’s Fields, the site of the Peterloo Massacre, to the cultural; a range of iconic names have either performed or spoken at the property, from Charles Dickens and Winston Churchill to the Sex Pistols - and the hotel embodies a sense of community and union.

It is testament to the team’s world-class service and Manchester’s significant role in the UK’s business and hospitality sectors. The Edwardian Manchester joins The May Fair Hotel as a Radisson Collection property, further cementing our long-standing strategic partnership with Radisson Hotel Group.”
