Nominated for a Blue Badge Access Award in 2023, Leven in Manchester is a new hotel that aims to create a new experience for guests with ‘Beautifully designed spaces created to inspire you to live your best life’.
Leven Resides in a Former Cotton Mill for Which Manchester Was Famed
Front Entrance is Flat and All Areas are Accessible at Leven
Located near Canal Street in an old cotton warehouse, they have a set of living spaces rather than rooms as you can see on this link.
A Large Room at Leven Has Plenty of Space for a Wheelchair and Soft Furnishings to Give Good Acoustics.
Leven also breaks new ground with its own Metaverse which we urge you to try from their website, a world first for hotels?? Maybe.

Unfortunately they don’t talk about accessibility (it’s obvs a secret!?? ) on their website but they do have perfectly good accessible rooms. Here’s what they say:
‘Our hotel is indeed accessible for disabled people, We have a lift from our front door to our reception and then also a lift that leads to all floors.
Regarding accessible rooms we do indeed have a few of them, …….our Living Space rooms they do come with the shower rails and a larger shower area’.
These are the images they provided of their bathroom, they are both well designed and attractive!

The Bathroom Has Good Colour Contrast of Cream to Grey – Floor to Wall. Great Safe Space With a Surfeit of Grab Rails in The Wet Room Shower
Their newly opened restaurant, Maya, is listed in the Michelin Guide where they say it’s a
‘beautifully appointed place, with an art deco feel and a large cocktail bar that feels appropriate for an area of the city known for its party scene. The dishes often have a modern make-up but the kitchen’s classical skillset is evident’.

This is a brilliant hotel concept that is both stylish and accessible and Leven gets an un-audited 3 BBS Ticks for accessibility with style.
