Piccadilly
Gardens - Manchester
Manchester
has just been named the city with most serviced apartments in the UK,
after London.
But what else do we know about Manchester?
There have arguably
been 2 Manchesters. The first, the Roman fort at Castlefield and the
second, around the Cathedral and Chethams
Music School,
which formed the medieval town of Manchester.
By the time of the Norman conquest in 1066, the region was clearly
Anglo-Saxon and their name for the town was "Mameceaster". In
early times Manchester was a little
known hamlet adjacent to and belonging to the then noble town of Salford.
Over the centuries
the town developed with a flourishing textile industry and in the 17th
Century the name Manchester
became popular.
Nowadays, Manchester
is a bustling city, home of Coronation
Street, United and a host of restaurants and
bars to entertain the visitors.
May sees a number of
exciting things happening in Manchester:
The Wheel of Manchester is back, so you can take to the skies and see
the town in a completely different light from a completely different
angle. (Exchange Square)
And then there is the
BUPA Great Manchester Run, one of the most prestigious 10k running
events in the world. (Sunday 18th May)

The Apartment Service Team was among other leading
players in the UK
serviced apartment industry, BridgeStreet, Saco and Go Native, in
participating in a fascinating Conference of the Institute
of Travel Managers.
This leading industry association brought together key UK
buyers of corporate travel from major blue chips and leading SMEs with
the main suppliers of travel (air, rail and ground transportation),
accommodation, travel management companies and support services for a
two day conference in Dublin
addressing the main issues confronting our industry today. This
ranged from supplier/buyer relationships, sourcing of travel and
accommodation product, pricing and distribution models and the
ramifications of the Corporate Manslaughter Bill on travel, among other
hot topics. With insights into the future from leading speakers
and a keynote speech from Alistair Campbell the conference was hailed
as ‘a fantastic forum to work and discuss issues in an open environment
with all parts of the corporate travel industry, a buyer group becoming
more and more aware of the benefits of serviced apartments and the role
they can play in the traditional hotel based accommodation programme
for all sizes and types of industries’ said Charlie McCrow, MD of The
Apartment Service.
