Parklife weekend is so close now that you can almost hear the bass. As more than 80,000 people descend on the city for a weekend’s dancing, some might have left sorting a bed out a bit late.
And while there are still what appear to be plenty of vacancies for the time being, Parklifers might struggle to find anything at what might be considered a reasonable price. A handful of beds remain available at locations out of town for the £200 mark, but anything approaching the centre will cost well north of £250 for a night’s kip **.
Cheapest, via a scan of booking sites, appears to be £199 for a night at the Airport Hotel south of the city in Northenden. But coming any further in, and the cheapest bed in the city centre is currently at the infamous Sacha’s in the Northern Quarter, for £259.
