The Britannia Hotel occupies the former Watts Warehouse, one of Manchester鈥檚 grandest surviving Victorian commercial buildings. Constructed in the mid-19th century for the textile trade, the enormous structure combines Italianate architectural influences with richly decorated interiors and reflects the period when Manchester was one of the world鈥檚 leading centers of cotton manufacturing and commerce. The building was later converted into a hotel, preserving a major example of the monumental warehouses that once dominated the city鈥檚 industrial economy.
