Rhodri Kitt Review of Celtic Manor Resort
Been here 3 times for our wedd and twice for Valen...
Been here 3 times for our wedd and twice for Valentine's Day, and is always excellent, staff can't do enough for you food is excellent and in my opinion not badly priced depending on which restaurants you go to (the grill and steak on 6 are our favourites). I strongly recommend booking a room with a meal as that seems to be the most cost effective solution if you want to treat yourself (and join the mailing list for special offers). Clean, organised, efficient, brilliant views and for our wedding everything went smoothly even when there were problems with our suppliers and he (Ashley) kept me up to date with everything and on top of everything.
On weddings i recommended the platinum package as you get so much more for not much extra (seriously compare it's silly and worth it gold I don't think so).
List of positives just goes on from the sheer wow value to the list of things to do on site which sadly I haven't had chance to do yet.
Negatives
There was one issue that slipped through that we should have seen but we were compensated and is currently being investigated so I won't mention it (seriously my wife even missed it).
Why they have friut shot in the adults only rooms is just a silly oversight or an odd contractual obligation, cans/bottles of coke/pepsi would have been the obvious choice.
There is a second pool on the grounds (in the first golf building with the marquee) that is quiter, larger but with less jacuzzis and speed dryer for swim wear (which it should have). It should be advised as this is nice if you'd prefer it quieter.
This is one of our favourite places to go and visit strongly recommended over and over.
