The Alma Lodge Hotel & Restaurant, based in Stockport, Greater Manchester, is a historic and captivating venue for wedding celebrations. Since the 19th century, the Hotel has played an important role in the local community. While the hotel has evolved throughout the years, some of its original features remain to this day, such as the wood-panelled lobby and the open fire that brings warmth and charm to the hotel. The weddings suites have all been recently refurbished in 2024. We also have plenty of onsite complimentary parking and a variety of accommodation to suit your guests needs.

Perfect venue for a magical wedding!

We recently held our Wedding Ceremony and Reception at The Alma Lodge Hotel and from the initial booking to leaving the following day the service we received was outstanding. Elaine was our contact for the booking and she was extremely knowledgeable and gave us confidence that we picked the right venue.

On the day Callum and Faye were on hand for anything we needed, but without being obvious about it. Every member of staff that we encountered were friendly and accommodating and nothing was too much trouble. The day ran seamlessly thanks to the experience of the staff. It made our special day extra special.

We would highly recommend the Alma Lodge for a wedding.

Engagement Party

"Premium service", Fay and the team did a Absolutely wonderful job for us. We hired Alma lodge for our sons engagement party, from start to finish, they were proactive on everything, helping us with all aspect for the occasion, even from the day before and the day after as well. They have great facilities, kitchen crockery and utensils, the large function room was beautifully and it can caters for small and large parties. Fay was just a great pleasure to deal with, very polite and professional and outstanding service. Would really recommend Alma lodge and
the team for any occasion.
Thanks alot

Alma Lodge was a blessing!

My wife and I had our wedding at the hotel in the Regis suite.
Our original venue had issues which meant cancelling 5 weeks before which was immensely stressful but the Alma Lodge were able to accommodate us at such short notice.
The venue was amazing and the food was incredible. The hotel gave a complimentary room not only the night of, but also the night before, plus many of our guests were also able to stay.
All of our guests complimented the venue itself, the food and the staff couldn't do enough for us.
The bridal suite was perfect for the bride, and all the bridesmaids giving them somewhere secluded to prepare for the day. All the staff were incredibly helpful leading up to the wedding, the night prior when we were decorating and the day of the wedding and were there for everything we needed. They took care of everything throughout and were so kind in their comments to myself, my wife, family and guests. I would 100% recommend the Alma Lodge to anyone wanting to hold an event or staying there. Thank you so much to all the staff, you helped give us the wedding of our dreams 😊
