Manchester City has opened The Medlock, a 401-room hotel beside the Etihad Stadium. But football matchdays alone cannot explain a hotel this large.
The deeper story leads into Manchester City’s roughly £300 million transformation of the Etihad, where hotel rooms, hospitality, concerts, events, restaurants and new attractions are being connected into one much larger destination.
And there is another complication. The stadium at the center of that strategy is operated under a long-term lease from Manchester City Council.
So what are those 401 rooms really for, and what is Manchester City trying to turn the Etihad into?
