Developer the Property Alliance Group has submitted a planning application for the 12-storey hotel containing 193 rooms with a decision due from Manchester City Council in December.
Russells is the Property Alliance Group’s preferred contractor and will be ready to start immediately permission is granted with completion due in early 2012.
The site on the corner of Lena Street and Dale Street was abandoned by a previous developer who went bust.
The original steel frame was started but this will be dismantled to make way for the new hotel
