Manchester's first luxury serviced apartment building opens for business (February, 2009) offering the first serious alternative to five star hotel accommodation in Manchester.

Prices start from just GBP99 per night for the 41 big apartments in the Conran-designed Light House building in the heart of the city centre, promising the best of boutique hotel-style luxury with the flexibility of fully-serviced apartment living.

The Light includes two stunning 15th floor penthouses, plus their own outdoor terraces - at 2,500 sq ft large enough to accommodate the biggest of parties.

Conran & Partners, Sir Terence Conran's architecture and design practice, are the architects of the 20-storey building next to Piccadilly Gardens, and have given the project a distinctly urban design, reflecting the New York-like character of the buildings in the neighbourhood.

Stonehurst Estates and Conran & Partners are also collaborating on the redevelopment of Greenwich Pier, in time for the London Olympics 2012, with a stylish restaurant, bar and cafe and outdoor terraces with views over the River Thames.

In Manchester, The Light offers as standard reception and concierge service, with a host of extras for its guests. The Light's own interior design team has individually styled the mainly two-bedroom apartments, which have large covered balconies with fantastic views of the city centre.

The Light also has something no other hotel or apartment building in Manchester can offer - the two massive penthouses with floor to ceiling glass walls and the 15th floor private terraces, one with its own hot tub.

It's the ultimate penthouse party experience - the chance to hire the whole of its 15th floor for a luxury break or celebration to remember.

Clive Lynton, director of Stonehurst Estates, said: "We are the first company to really bring together the atmosphere and style of boutique hotels and the freedom and space that a serviced apartment can offer.

"Unlike other serviced apartments, our visitors won't just be given the keys to an apartment somewhere in the city and left to their own devices.

"The management team is hugely experienced and knowledgeable and can offer all the assistance, tips and service you would expect from a first-class hotel."
