Impressive place and setting …. Grand reception , rooms ok wouldn’t pay extra for balcony because it was unsightly with weeds . Service went down hill as night went on and got busy . Ordered two cocktails £16 EACH and only one turned up …. Finished the one before the other turned up ! Very poor then just had to always attract attention for service ! Really disappointing . Breakfast staff were very friendly and attentive . Over all the place needs some improvement , looking tired in places .

Given the price and star rating, I expected better service at this hotel. The rooms were clean but amenities were lacking. There was a fridge, but no minibar. No coffee machine like most hotels have these days, tea and coffee were provided via instant sachets and kettles. There was also no water provided. We had to call reception to request this but after three calls and no water turning up, we gave up. A used cup was left outside my room during my stay. I don’t know why it wasn’t taken away. That’s all I can say about the cleanliness… Breakfast was a nice, simple, standard hotel breakfast. Parking costs £25 per night for residents. Blue Badge holders get this half price (just show your ticket at the desk when checking out).

We had a fantastic stay at the Celtic Manor, all the staff are well trained, polite, friendly & attentive. The hotel & grounds are stunning with a huge choice of bars & restaurants. The food was great & the variety at breakfast was superb. We will definitely be going back next year for our anniversary, they make you feel special , thank you. Guy & Diane

Staff very polite and helpful, however the lifts in the resorts were really bad, very slow and not enough lifts for the number of rooms, sometimes i had to wait well over 5 mins to get into the lift, my room was on the 8th floor do could not really use the stairs

Room was a good size and was nice and clean (as was the rest of the hotel). The facilities were OK, but the whole hotel feels very tired and dated and not really what I’d expect from a 5 star. The food was fairly standard, no better than the food I’ve had in other 3 and 4 star hotels. Pool looks great in the photos but was extremely busy on our stay. Communication in advance of our visit wasn’t great - I emailed twice to ask a so eventually had to call instead. Parking charges for guests are steep. Not a terrible stay, but not somewhere I’d rush to go back to

I'd always wanted to stay as I'd passed the hotel many times. First, parking -you have to pay. Underground is £25, overground £13.50. Not good. Receptionist helpfully told me to move car from underground to save money. Went to get light lunch on cafe/bar in foyer. Lots of staff milling about but took some time to be served and then wrong sandwich arrived. Also would have expected a decent sized tea pot instead of one that help one and a bit cups. Room was OK, comfy bed, but had to get maintenance to fix the plug plunger for the sink. Would have expected housekeeping to notice this. Then, after I went to bed I tried to adjust the AC but it just kept reverting to "high" so had to call reception at 1.30am to fix it. Fortunately it was fixed remotely. Dined in The Grill. The hotel thoughtfully provide minibuses to get you around the site. Waiting staff were helpful and friendly but I didn't care much for the food - moules mariniere. Strange taste. There was plentiful food at breakfast but it was all s but bland. Overall it was a disappointing stay for a 5 star hotel. I prefer the Vale Resort. Kettle had scale on outside.

Great hotel with beautiful scenery and really good restaurants. Only disappointment was the lack of accessibility to lower floors with a pushchair.

Ticks all the boxes, love it here!

Just the most amazing place and some of the most welcoming staff I have ever had the pleasure of meeting.

Hotel was fab, pool area was excellent, well catered for children. Only feedback would be healthier options on the bar menu would have been welcomed!

Room was clean but surprised no water. Distinct lack of water available on site However the hotel was lovely and well kept

Stayed at the Celtic Manor Resort recently and came away feeling a little disappointed overall. The bed was genuinely excellent and most of the staff we dealt with were friendly and polite, but for a hotel marketed as five-star, parts of the experience didn’t really match the price point. On arrival, the concierge/car parking experience felt unnecessarily dismissive, which isn’t the welcome you expect when paying premium prices. The hotel itself also feels quite dated in areas. The room was comfortable, but surprisingly lacked basic touches you’d normally expect at this level — no bottled water, no minibar. After arriving late, we also found the night menu extremely limited, to the point we didn’t bother ordering food. The bar service was fine, but automatically adding a 10% discretionary service charge onto drinks left a slightly sour taste, especially when four pints came to around £36. Overall, not a terrible stay by any means, but it didn’t feel like a true five star experience for the money charged.

Disappointed with the stay last night. Staff were good, food was great for dinner and breakfast. Room let us down a bit, shower needs an upgrade. Hair dryer was broken, ironing board was broken. It is just in need of a refresh. Golf is great there, hotel just lets it down a little. I just felt it was a bit mediocre.

Very clean and very helpful staff

All great

Excellent facilities and excellent food

The Good: Staff were friendly and helpful. The food was great, plenty of options for places to eat. Plenty of activities available and easy to book. The Bad: No complimentary parking. Some of the lifts were broken and had been for several days before we arrived. There seemed to be no interest in getting them fixed. Quite disappointed overall, not sure I would ever come back. Would have been better booking a holiday abroad.

Enjoyed our overnight stay in the Celtic Manor and had time to recharge our batteries. The male member of staff at Reception was exceptional! (Sorry we didn't make a note of his name.) He was particularly welcoming, helpful and informative about all amenities available and booked all the little extras for us. The staff at 'The Grill' were also great, where we enjoyed a tasty meal in a relaxing atmosphere. Additionally, the breakfast offered plenty of variety the following morning. We opted to pay extra for a room with a balcony, however, although it was clean, comfortable and looked nice enough, on close inspection it needed a make-over and a lot of TLC. The balcony was shoddy and the door leading out to it didn't close properly so it was draughty. However, the worst experience for us during this visit was the pool and spa. Despite booking our 'slot', it was full to the brim. There were adults and children diving in to the pool even though there were lifeguards on duty and signs to discourage this. The steam room and jacuzzi / hot tubs were also jammed packed, and so were impossible to sample and enjoy. This aspect was disappointing and unacceptable.

What you would expect for £200 a night

All great apart from there were empty packets of milk in our room mixed up with the full packets of milk etc Other than that all was great
