Hilton on Deansgate evacuated due to 'faulty alarm'
Residents of a Hilton hotel were evacuated in the early hours of this morning.
In videos shared with the Manchester Evening News a number of people stood outside the hotel in Manchester city centre in the rain as fire crews went into the building at around 7am on Sunday, November 24.
In a second video, a large number of firefighters were filmed leaving the building.
One resident of the building said: "Full evacuation of Hilton Deansgate - all ok. We were on floor 22! Well done to responders."
A spokesperson for Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service has since confirmed that the cause of the evacuation was a faulty alarm. Residents have since returned to the building.
