THE 5* AWARD-WINNING LOWRY HOTEL, MANCHESTER

The Lowry Hotel 50 Dearmans Place, Manchester, M3 5LH (0161 827 8883)

Ideally situated on the banks of the River Irwell in the recently developed Chapel Wharf area, The Lowry Hotel makes a bold, contemporary architectural statement with its dramatic, curved, glass-fronted façade that creates a light and airy feel within the hotel interior.

The Lowry Hotel was specifically designed with the needs of conferences and events in mind. The WPM Education Annual User Conference is to be held in the full conference suite for the 3 days of the conference allowing the event to flow easily between the workshops and main conference as all rooms are accessible directly from the refreshment and exhibition area. The main conference is to be held in the Grand Ballroom which has floor to ceiling windows on one side of the room with views of the River Irwell.
