A GUEST at the Travel Lodge Hotel in Prestwich suffered head injuries in a brutal attack at the weekend.

A porter at the hotel alerted police after a disturbance in one of the rooms at 7am on Saturday (March 2). A 30-year-old man was taken to North Manchester General Hospital for treatment.

Police later sealed off an area outside the neighbouring Tesco store to allow forensic specialists to take blood samples in connection with the attack.

Detectives are looking at CCTV footage from the hotel as part of their investigation into the incident.
