International Friendship Day, celebrated on July 30th, is the perfect excuse to gather your closest friends and remind them why you’re all still friends despite that one time they borrowed your favourite hoodie and “lost” it. It’s a day to toast the buddies who’ve been there through thick and thin, bad haircuts, and questionable fashion choices. And what better way to show your appreciation than by whisking them away on a luxurious adventure?
Why International Friendship Day Matters
Friendship Day isn’t just another date on the calendar; it’s the VIP ticket to the appreciation club. Friends are like a personal cheering squad, a therapist on speed dial, and a partner-in-crime all rolled into one. They’re the people who’ve seen you at your best, your worst, and that time you tried to cook a “gourmet” meal from scratch. Each friendship adds a quirky, hilarious, and heartwarming chapter to the book of our lives.
Now, let’s talk about celebrating this glorious day in style. The Lowry Hotel is launching The Suite Experience in August, and it’s basically the ultimate staycation you didn’t know you needed. Think of it as your friendship’s crowning glory, wrapped in luxury and served with a side of memories to last a lifetime.
Imagine walking into a suite so beautiful that you might actually forget about your friend’s habit of always being 15 minutes late. Each suite is designed with more elegance and comfort than you knew was possible, offering a spacious, serene environment perfect for unwinding and plotting your next adventure.
Prepare to be pampered with amenities that scream “VIP treatment.” From plush bedding that makes you want to hibernate to high-end toiletries that might mysteriously find their way into your suitcase, The Suite Experience ensures you’re treated like royalty. Oh, and did we mention the film & fine dining experience to go with it? Cheers to that!
Whether you prefer romantic comedies, action films or just pure laugh out loud films! We have something picked out for everyone’s favourite genre. No matter if it’s two friends or five, with interconnecting rooms and comfortable sofas for lounging, everyone can enjoy the film together and then retreat to their own beds for a restful nights sleep. A staycation with your closest friends doesn’t get much better than this.
Why settle for takeout when you can dine like kings and queens? The River Restaurant serve up a variety of culinary masterpieces that are perfect for sharing (or not, we won’t judge). The Chefs cook your delicious three-course meal and it’s served straight to your room! It’s the perfect setting for swapping stories, clinking glasses, and maybe even forgiving that hoodie incident.
Snuggle up in our luxurious beds or lounge on the comfortable sofas as you enjoy a film steeped in nostalgia. Delight in a specially crafted menu of matching food and cocktails, each linked to iconic scenes from the movies, savouring the flavours as you watch and relive the magic.
If you’d prefer a relaxing and luxurious spa day, RE:TREAT is the solution…
With new OTO CBD treatments launching, there’s the perfect opportunity for a little rest and relaxation. The CBDiva Package offers an overnight stay and an indulgent treatment. Or maybe you’d like a GAIA Indian Head Massage with our Double Dose of Zen package – two massages for the price of one? There’s no need to do the usual splitting of bills here.
The Lowry Hotel offers views of Manchester’s skyline, providing the perfect backdrop for deep conversations, laughter, and the inevitable selfie sessions. Just think of the Instagram posts – you’ll be the envy of everyone not there.
