Guests were forced to immediately evacuate the Hilton hotel in Manchester as fire crews descended on Deansgate on Saturday night (November 4).

The Manchester Evening News understands that an alarm had been set off inside sparking the emergency services response and that it turned out to be a false alarm.
One guest said: "The whole hotel was evacuated. It happened at around 11pm, I'm not too sure what happened, but the whole hotel was tipped out and walking down from level 22 was a killer. They had a few events on plus the Cloud23 bar was full."
A social media user on site X also posted about the incident, writing: "I was on the 23rd floor, about to have a drink and enjoy the fantastic views, at Manchester's Hilton on Deansgate. Then the fire alarm went off and I walked down 23 floors in my heels into Manchester's infamous mizzle."
Photos and videos from the scene show three fire engines in attendance as groups of guests stand outside as emergency crews responded.
Hilton Hotels have been approached for comment.
