Castlefield is Manchester's most characteristic and distinctive neighborhood. With its canal-side location, Roman history, and designation as an Urban Heritage Park. You can see why locals come here for a day out when they want to break the monotony of everyday life. Despite being located in Central Manchester, this neighborhood has a laid back vibe that's perfect for lazy days along the canal, wining and dining at a pub by the water, or checking out some of Manchester's most innovative museums. I have been coming here for years and it is such a special place to me but it is often overlooked by tourists who instead head off to the most famous sights. If you're looking for places to stay in Castlefield I recommend you plan your stay in Manchester on Kayak and keep reading this guide full of essential tips on where to eat, what to do, and how to have a blast!
