The Rex – Formerly Hotel Gotham

Every great story deserves a new chapter

Hotel Gotham has evolved, and we are proud to introduce The Rex - a bold new identity, officially launched on 23rd April 2026.

Discover The Rex, an exclusive retreat, shaped by indulgence, discretion and refined hospitality.

Situated at 100 King Street in the central conservation area, The Rex occupies the former Midland Bank, one of Manchester’s most distinguished buildings. Designed in 1928 by Sir Edwin Lutyens, its neoclassical form and subtle Art Deco detailing give it a presence that requires no introduction.

Behind its distinctive façade, a different kind of indulgence unfolds. Intimate rooms, elevated dining and discreet social spaces shape an atmosphere defined by character and intent.

This is The Rex, where sanctuary is served.

Reign Restaurant

Located on the sixth floor, Reign is a destination restaurant defined by atmosphere, flavour, and perspective. With sweeping views across the city, the space blends contemporary design with subtle Art Deco influences creating a setting that feels both elegant and modern. Our menus and cocktails celebrate creativity, seasonality, and provenance, with ingredients carefully sourced from trusted local suppliers.

At Reign, expect a restaurant with real energy, a menu with attitude, and carefully curated wine list to complement every moment, from intimate dinners to vibrant celebrations.
