Diamond Lodge

After a fairly lengthy journey on the busiest weekend for concerts and park life. we turned up overall we had fairly low expectations as it was the cheapest hotel by miles but very close to the stadium so we could walk. The hotel looks fairly dated from the outside but don't let that put you off. As soon as we walked in the gentleman behind the desk couldn't be more helpful and offers to book us a taxi to the concert all the staff we met were very polite and welcoming.

It is very easy to catch a bus to it and is also very cheep to get a taxi from both train stations the overall inside is modern and looked like some parts were under refurbishment lots of nice comfy armchairs and sofas in the lounge area and bar The rooms are nice and ours looked like it had recently been redecorated. even tho you are next to a busy road you could not hear it.

The bed was very comfy and the room had all the basic things inc tea and coffee. Me and my wife had a very good sleep and the hotel is very quiet on a night even though it was fully booked with everything going on. Breakfast in the morning was very nice and had a good selection of fresh fruit, cereal and cooked breakfast available everything was piping hot. Thank you Dimond Lodge we had a super stay!

We only booked in for 1 night, while we were travelling home from Manchester airport. Although it was the middle of the night when we arrived, I couldn't help but notice how grubby the whole place was. The grouting in the bathroom was filthy. The dust on the windowsills was thick. The bed was OK tho, and we hada good nights sleep. The breakfast buffet was substantial.

The hash browns had run out, so I asked if there was any more. The kitchen assistant was very rude She brought some more, and instructed me to take one. As I fumbled to get 2, she snatched the tongs from me, and told me I was too slow. I told her that she was rude. She was very reluctant to serve me 2- I helped myself to annother one when she has gone! Overall, I think that it is a budget hotel, appealing to young people who aren't too fussy about hygiene and service.

Large comfy room and bed. Great helpful staff when we first arrived. Location close to Etihad and city centre, walking about 30 + mins or short taxi ride.

Great location on a bus route a few miles out of the city centre. Greeted by a friendly guy at reception who was helpful. Room clean and everything you need for a comfortable stay.

Not a bad hotel, needs upgrading abit. We stayed for 1 night, staff very polite and professional. A great breakfast in the morning 6-10 also vending machines with sandwiches need these especially I you come back off a night out. Overall a comfortable stay. Also there is a bar

We have stayed here many times for Christmas markets but mainly night matches at the ethiad. We just find the hotel value for money with a good breakfast. It can be very busy at the weekends so breakfast is a bit chaotic

Very close to our evening show at the monastery. Never met such friendly staff all through the hotel. Yes, it is a budget hotel but that didn't alter the level of cleanliness and food. All excellent. Lovely breakfast with plenty of choice and nice touch was complimentary hot drink machine 24hours. Would use again without hesitation.

Everything was lovely and clean in this lodge and the breakfast was absolutely lovely. The staff were also very pleasant we couldn't fault the place. Would recommend it to everyone and would definitely stay there again.

Very helpful staff on the reception. Informative. We had a disabled room, so on the ground floor. The room was clean as was the bathroom. The only concern I had was that the toilet was loose. It was reported and was told it would be fixed straight away. The breakfast was included in the price. Very substantial breakfast, on a help yourself bar. The price was higher for the date that we went, although still reasonable. and dropped quite considerably for the next day. Would visit again
