Treehouse Hotels—the nostalgia-fueled, free-spirited hospitality brand created by Barry Sternlicht, Founder and Chairman of Starwood Hotels—unveiled the Treehouse Hotel Manchester on March 19, 2025.
The second UK outpost of the Treehouse Hotels brand is a fresh addition to Manchester’s hospitality scene, designed to spark curiosity and bring people together in unexpected ways.
Located in the heart of the city on the corner of Blackfriars Street and Deansgate, Treehouse Hotel Manchester combines the warmth and joy of a treehouse with the energy of a city that thrives on creativity, music, and sport. Following in the footsteps of Treehouse Hotel London, which debuted in the UK to much acclaim in 2019, Treehouse Hotel Manchester builds on the brand’s signature sense of nostalgia, individuality, and adventure.
“Treehouse Hotels capture the playfulness of childhood—building forts with your friends, acting out your dreams, and experiencing the world with boundless imagination. It’s about the simplicity of your youth: a place to hang out with friends and escape the world. That’s our brand DNA,” says Barry Sternlicht. “With Treehouse Hotel Manchester, we bring those vibes to life. It’s designed to be full of ‘carefreedom,’ where carefree meets freedom and good times happen.”
Treehouse Hotel Manchester invites guests to experience the city from a whole new perspective—literally. With wall-to-wall windows in every room and lush greenery throughout, the hotel feels like stepping into a secret hideaway in the treetops. Inside, the design embraces the brand’s signature ethos: perfectly imperfect, mixing raw textures, handcrafted details, quirky design elements, and reclaimed materials to create comfy, unpretentious spaces. There’s always a branch to swing on and have a good time.
The hotel opened with 200 treehouse-inspired guest rooms with more rooms including nine suites and the Treetop Suite due later this year. Each space is layered with personality, from custom headboards with illustrated designs to patchwork quilts to exposed waffle concrete ceilings. Bathrooms are designed to feel like outdoor retreats, featuring lush green tiles, organically shaped mirrors, and concrete basins. Sweeping views of Manchester offer a serene contrast to the pulse of the city below.
In addition Treehouse Hotel Silicon Valley—the brand’s first U.S. location—recently opened, bringing the total number of Treehouse properties from one to three.
