AC Hotels Debuts In The U.K.

by Jessica Montevago  May 26, 2016

AC Hotels by Marriott opened Tuesday in Birmingham and Manchester, marking the brand’s entrance into the United Kingdom.

The European-inspired hotels have the signature AC Lounge, a creative workspace during the day and social area at night, and the AC Library.

In Manchester, the 142-room hotel is located in the vibrant Salford Quays district, while the 90-room AC Hotel Birmingham City Centre is near a shopping area with stores, restaurants, and bars, the National Indoor Arena, and the Barber Institute of Fine Arts.

The two hotels are a part of more than 22 AC hotels expected to open this year.
