Hotels
The 2nd Conference of Research Software Engineers, starting the day after WSSSPE5.1, also in Manchester, offers a list of hotels, with distances from their venue.
The distance between the RSE Conference venue and the WSSSPE5.1 venue is 1.2 miles (1.9 km), so if you are attending both events, a hotel in the middle such as the Premier Inn might be a good choice.
