Anyways, to your point, Techincally speaking you can request accomodations. However, its not really a must in legal terms. I recommend you ask for it as soon as possible, because it may require reservations. If there is availablity then you can pick up the hotel vocuher from the check-in at MAN. Be Sure to pick it up from there, or you might face some difficulty at DXB.
As for the Lounges, not really sure, but I had one of my friends Pay to enter the Business Lounge, but that was awhile back, not sure if it can be done now.
As for 'Marhaba' lounge, you pay only 75 Dirhums to enter.
This link is for the Marhaba:

I hope this helps...
Enjoy!
Thanks for your reply!
I called Emirates UK who told me I was not entitled to the free accomodation because my ticket was 'L' Economy and not 'Y'. Hmm!
Anyway, I was told the Marhaba Lounge has rooms available with beds etc so I might be able to get in there and book one. Does anybody have any idea where the rules for this kind of travel are, as it seems Emirates done advertise the stop over details on their website.
Thanks all!
