what our customers say

Shelagh Pooley (Training Event Co-ordinator), Trevor Roberts Associates
"In these cost conscious times, Staff House Conference Centre offers good value for money. The venue is most conveniently situated and they serve great food! But most important of all, their friendly staff clearly show that they appreciate your business, and they do their utmost to meet your needs"
Stephanie Clay (Events Manager), Higher Education Academy
"We have received lots of good feedback already and the venue was very highly rated. Thank you for putting up with all my demands and managing to keep smiling! The food was also highly rated which is something that has let us down in previous years."
Rachael King (Project Manager), Manchester United Premier Cup
"Thank you on behalf of NIKE and everyone involved in MUPC for the hard work and effort from all the staff at the University that went into making this event a great success...delivering an unforgettable experience to all the teams and some future stars of football."
Jo Garsden (Project Co-ordinator), Manchester Interdisciplinary Collaboration for Research on Ageing
"I just wanted to say a big thank you for all your help making our event run so smoothly.Thanks for being on hand to help, it really made a difference... the attendee with mobility issues also remarked how helpful everyone at Dalton Ellis Hall had been. I'd certainly use Dalton Ellis again for similar events and would recommend it to others."
