Check out £816 per night Hotel - Where Mourinho is staying since last year (PHOTOS)

The Manchester United boss has called the hotel his home since arriving in the city last summer, and although he at one stage discussed putting down more permanent roots in the city, the Portuguese is comfortable enough in his surroundings to continue the arrangement.

Mourinho is understood to be staying in one of the hotel's six luxury Riverside Suites, which cost guests an average of £816 a night. However, the Manchester United manager is thought to have a greatly-reduced rate due to his long-term stay, in what the hotel describe to be the largest suites in the city at 90 square metres.

The hotel, where the United squad stay the night before home games, does have a presidential room, known as the Charles Forte Suite and including a baby grand piano and an Italian porcelain bathroom, but Mourinho is understood not to be staying in it.

There is one Riverside Suite on each floor of the hotel, which are described as having 'the feeling of a stylish private apartment'. Each has a view overlooking the River Irwell, which runs through Manchester, and are all individually designed around abstract artwork by internationally acclaimed Oldham-born artist, Alan Rankle.

Each room features a piece of Rankle's art on a 4mx2.5m upholstered headboard, curved around the bed, with mirrors strategically placed to allow guests to view the artist's work from multiple angles.

The air-conditioned suites all come with sofas and chairs, each have two entrances, a desk and a separate lounge and dining area with enough space to entertain four guests for dinner or hold meetings.

There is a walk-in wardrobe, en-suite bathroom with separate shower, an in-room bar and a safe. Tea and coffee making facilities are included, along with a fridge and coffee machine.

All six of the rooms are packed with technology, including two Smart TVs, high speed broadband and two direct-dial telephones with voice messaging. There is also an ethernet dataport and a connection for a fax machine, with guests given the machine itself on request.

The one issue Mourinho, who has food delivered to his room, is said to have found during his year-long stay, is a slight Wi-Fi problem.

Five of the six Riverside Suites can be interconnected with a Superior Deluxe River View Room, which the hotel says is a popular addition made by families and long-term guests.

Within the hotel itself guests have access to a gym and spa area, 24-hour room service and a concierge, while all Riverside Suite guests are offered in-suite check in, a bag packing service, valet and a full English breakfast.

If guests so choose, they can enhance their stay with six chocolate-dipped strawberries for £12 or a bottle of champagne for £100.

While much has been made of Mourinho's decision to live in a hotel, rather than find a home of his own, United bosses are not concerned by their manager's decision.

He made regular trips down to London to see his wife and children during the season, with his family understood to be set to remain living at their house in the capital.

While United ended Mourinho's first season at the club with a sixth-place finish in the Premier League, the season ultimately proved to be a successful one as he added two trophies to his already glistening CV.

First came the EFL Cup, as Zlatan Ibrahimovic struck the winner in a victory over Southampton, before goals from Paul Pogba and Henrikh Mkhitaryan ensured the Red Devils lifted the Europa League trophy by beating Ajax in Stockholm.

That victory earned United a place back in the Champions League heading into Mourinho's second campaign in charge.
