If you can't imagine a world without a team of 11 players chasing a ball to score a goal against the opponent (and you aren't a Liverpool fan, in which case you should skip this article altogether), there is a heavenly place dedicated to football.
This 4-star hotel, which opened in 2015 and cost £24 million to construct, quickly became popular among football fans, particularly for those cheering for Manchester United.
Hotel Football is owned by Manchester United legends, namely Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes, Nicky Butt, Phil Neville and Gary Neville.
The Class of '92 planned to create a themed hotel to revive the golden age of football for passionate fans.
What's "The Class of '92"? The young Manchester United footballers whose talent led them eventually to winning the Champions League in 1999.
The football-themed hotel overlooks Old Trafford stadium, home of Manchester United F.C.
It offers 133 rooms, a restaurant named Cafe Football, and a rooftop five-a-side football pitch.
The Cafe Football is a 185-seat restaurant with a menu overseen by the two-Michelin-starred chef Michael Wignall of The Angel at Hetton. It is open from early morning until late evening.
The hotel features artwork and subtle football references throughout its building.
There is a football shop where you can buy hoodies, bags, hats, autographed merch, and prints of football history.
The basement bar, Old Trafford Supporters Club (OTSC), has a capacity of 550, large screens for watching the games, and a terrace for smokers.
The rooms exemplify a high 4-star hotel standard but with more captivating decor than usual. The walls are plastered with motivational quotes and United-themed artworks.
For the die-hard United fans, stadium-view rooms are available.
The nightly price can easily triple on match days, so make sure you choose the right dates!
On top of the 10-story building, a 16 × 12-meter (52 × 39 feet) mini football field has been created. Instead of the usual boring hotel gym, you can now come to the rooftop and play.
No pre-booking is necessary to play on the five-a-side football pitch, which offers panoramic views of Old Trafford Stadium on one side and Salford Quays on the other. This is a version of mini football where five people play against five.
Heaven—as the football pitch is called—turns into a fan zone with screens, a bar, and barbecues on game days.
