Nobu Hospitality has unveiled plans for a landmark development in Manchester featuring a hotel, restaurant, and the UK’s first Nobu-branded residences.

The project – currently named Viadux 2 – will introduce the Nobu Hotel Manchester as the tallest building outside London, standing at 246 metres. This development will bring the brand’s signature blend of luxury hospitality and world-class dining to the heart of the city.

The 76-storey tower will house 160 hotel rooms, event spaces, and a signature Nobu restaurant and bar, each reflecting the brand’s signature minimalist design. The development will also introduce 452 Nobu residences, marking the brand’s debut into the UK’s luxury real estate market.

“We are proud to include Manchester in our global collection, with its vibrant culture and growing global status,” said Trevor Horwell, CEO of Nobu Hospitality.

“Having grown up in the area, I am personally immensely proud of this project in a city that continues its evolution as a global destination for luxury hospitality. Manchester is home to world-class developments, a thriving culinary scene, and a growing demand for high-end lifestyle experiences. None of our locations are cookie cutter; we wholeheartedly embrace the spirit of each destination.”

A delivery time-line and opening date for Nobu Hotel Manchester has not been flagged.

Last week, Nobu Hospitality confirmed plans to open a hotel and restaurant in Toronto this June.
