If you’ve only ever sped past Salford on a train or vaguely heard it mentioned during a BBC weather report, it's time to give it the attention it deserves. Nestled right next door to Manchester, this often-overlooked city is brimming with character, charm, and canalside cool. It's also home to some of the sexiest escorts in the UK.
Salford doesn’t need the spotlight - it’s perfectly happy being the underdog with a grin and a pint. But make no mistake: it’s quietly becoming one of the most exciting places to explore in Greater Manchester and at Secrets Escorts, we love it.
Whether you’re hunting for things to do in Salford, searching for hotels in Salford that won’t annihilate your budget, or wondering how to book Salford escorts, we’ve got your northern adventure sorted.
Technically? No. Emotionally? Maybe. Geographically? Right next to it. Salford is its own city (really!), sitting proudly within Greater Manchester. You can literally walk to Manchester city centre in, like, under half an hour, or if your legs aren’t in the mood, hop on a tram, train or bus and be sipping your overpriced city-centre latte in 10 minutes. Because of the excellent travel links, Secrets Escorts can have one of Salford's top escorts at your door in around 20 minutes of your call - it's that local.
Public transport from Salford to Manchester is quick and frequent. The trams from Salford Quays will get you to Deansgate in a jiffy, and trains from Salford Central run directly into the heart of Manchester. For lazy legends, buses like the number 50 run every few minutes, so no excuses.
Good question. Here’s the thing: Manchester is brilliant - no one’s denying that - but Salford gives you more room to breathe, affordable places to stay, and a vibe that’s more laid-back than try-hard. If you're booking an hour or longer with a sexy escort, Salford's where it's at. With hotel prices still a fair bit cheaper than those in Manchester City centre, it knocks the socks off central Manchester competitors.
This is a place where you can go from modern waterfront bars to historic manor houses in the same afternoon. It’s where media giants rub shoulders with artists, students, and families walking the dog. There’s something real about Salford and it’s well worth discovering.
Looking for Salford attractions worth your time? Here’s the lowdown:
Set on the gleaming waters of Salford Quays, The Lowry is part theatre, part art gallery, and part local icon. Expect top-tier touring productions, contemporary exhibitions, and a tribute to the man who painted matchstick men before it was cool.
This is where telly magic happens. Home to the BBC, ITV, and a flock of freelancers with flat whites in hand. Even if you’re not media-obsessed, there are buzzing restaurants, open-air events, and an unbeatable sunset over the water.
A medieval manor house tucked behind some very normal Salford streets. There are timber beams, ghost stories, and the kind of olde worlde charm you don’t expect to stumble across next to a Lidl.
From Victorian street recreations to modern art installations, this museum blends nostalgia and creativity with style. Bonus: it’s next to the peaceful Peel Park, ideal for a post-museum stroll.
If your idea of a good day includes fresh air and public art, this one’s for you. Stretching through Salford and beyond, it’s great for a wander, a jog, or an Instagram update involving giant metal things in fields.
Salford’s food and drink scene is getting tastier by the week. Whether you’re into proper pubs or posh cocktails, there’s plenty on the menu if you're looking for the ideal venue to wine and dine your Salford escort companion before the fun REALLY commences.
The Dockyard – A laid-back bar at Salford Quays with craft beer, comfort food and city views.
Vero Moderno – Possibly the best Italian food in the postcode. Homemade pasta, chilled vibes, and a loyal local following.
The Eagle Inn – A quirky backstreet pub with live music and serious character.
Menagerie – Fancy cocktails, glam interiors and the occasional influencer posing with a gold-plated martini.
Whether you're splashing out to impress your exclusive escort in Manchester or counting pennies to maximise your time with a Salford party girl, there’s a spot in Salford with your name on it. Here’s your escort-friendly Salford hotel guide for every price range:
ibis budget Salford Quays – Clean, compact and right on the tram route. Perfect if you’d rather spend your money on activities (ahem) than accommodation.
The Campanile – Cheap, central and close to EVERYTHING, this hotel sits close to Manchester city centre - ideal for an hour or longer with a Salford escort.
Holiday Inn Manchester - MediaCityUK – Modern and comfy with a killer location near the water.
AC Hotel by Marriott Salford Quays – Stylish, slick and just a short walk from both Salford Quays and the tram stop.
The Lowry Hotel – Technically just over the Manchester border, but luxurious enough to warrant a mention. Think river views, posh robes, and spa treatments on tap. SUPER-sexy and a fave with our Manchester & Salford escorts.
Absolutely. Like any city, it’s got a mix of neighbourhoods, but the areas you’ll likely visit, Salford Quays, Chapel Street, MediaCity, and around the University, are all perfectly fine, even after dark. Keep your usual street smarts about you and you’ll be grand.
Here’s the secret: you don’t have to choose. Stay in Salford, play in Manchester. Or vice versa. The two cities blend seamlessly, but Salford gives you a break from the bustle while still being within arm’s reach of all the Manchester action. Our Manchester escorts cover Salford and our Salford escorts cover Manchester - all in under an hour too, so what's not to love?
Salford has officially shed its industrial past and stepped confidently into the present. With great transport links to Manchester, stunning riverside views, historic buildings, quirky venues, and hotels for every wallet, it’s more than just a neighbour to the north’s biggest city - it’s a sexy, grown-up and fun destination in its own right.
So next time you’re planning a northern getaway, skip the obvious and give Salford a go. It's weird, wonderful, and way more fun than you think.
