Hostels near City of Manchester Stadium
For a large city, Manchester is somewhat lacking in hostelling options. What it lacks in numbers, it more than makes up for in quality. The two choices below are both highly recommended as places to stay before and after a game.

  • Hilton Chambers, 15 Hilton Street, Manchester - Manchester’s most dashing and poshest hostel and dead charming too (or so they say). Hilton Chambers is part backpackers, part hotel, but all quality. A big leap in standards - a small step in price! (yeah its cheesy, but the place is cool).
  • Hatters Hostel 50 Newton Street – An awesome hostel located in the heart of all Manchester’s excitement. Clean, friendly, welcoming, and close to public transport, you can’t go wrong staying at Hatters.
