The hotel is becoming dated.

We have stayed many times at the Celtic manor. All have been very good experiences in fairness. Firstly, we had food at the Grill at the golf course. The food and service was exceptional. Could not have asked for more. The hotel itself is beginning to look very dated and grubby. The furniture needs replacing as damaged and old. There were live wires exposed on a plug in a hole on the floor in the main bar area (that my 3 year old daughter tried to put her hand into). Our room (943) was dirty with drink rings on the glass top of the dressing table. The shelf under the TV was also full of dust. The bedroom furniture was also old and damaged. The main issue that did become a problem was the pungent smell of urine in the bathroom. It smelt like it was coming from the shower drain. The shower itself was mouldy and the silicone surround was braking off. The balcony needed attention with weeds growing on the floor. The hotel as a hole is very child friendly. The feel of the hotel Is very relaxed and welcoming. The spar and pool area is very nice and clean. It’s Just a shame that the hotel interior is becoming very dated.

The hotel has some areas that seem a little tired and in need of updating. It was clean in most areas The staff were very pleasant and helpful, they are all worthy of praise. The food was fabulous although we didn’t always require a set 2 or 3 course meal. Drinks were expensive but the overall experience was very enjoyable and we would definitely recommend and visit again.

Comfortable and nice staff

We stayed for one night with the kids. The pool was great and staff fantastic. The breakfast buffet was quite good. We are at The Grill - the food was mediocre and quite expensive for what is quite basic food. The staff were absolutely fantastic though. You have to pay for parking but we parked in the outside car park which I think is a little cheaper but it would add up if you were staying for a few nights.

Dropped standards! Cold food

We upgraded to signature... The check in desk for signature was chaotic and a free for all also being charged £20 car parking fee was a shock, the room was nice and comfortable. The signature lounge served free sweet treats and drinks between 4-6pm... We arrived there about 5pm... The sweet treats trays were empty and all tables were occupied... The service was very slow and unorganised. I asked for sweet treats and waited over 20 mins for the empty trays to be restocked within 5 mins they were empty again! We had booked the Olive Tree for tea we previously ate there maybe 10 years ago and the food was outstanding.. This time it was busier and the food was not being restocked I plated some rice and chucked curry as did my husband, he also picked up a poppadom... The grease from the poppadom was running down his wrist! The rice was cold and the chicken curry slightly warm... I don't eat cold food at home so was not going to eat cold food out in a restaurant.... So I though the carvery maybe a better option... After getting a plate and qued up for meat and then waited for the veg to be restocked, I managed to get half a ladel of gravy as again it was empty, sitting down to eat the meat was cold the carrots and parsnips were very greasy the roast potatoes were only partly roasted and again only slightly warm really not enjoyable... I did go up to try dessert.. At this point my husband had giren up on the food... Desserts looked OK but no spoons so had to ask and wait

I submitted an upgrade which was completely ignored and also not dealt with on arrival. I admit it was busy but this can’t be an excuse. There was no bottled water in the room or fridge which is standard in most hotels these days! The hotel stay itself was pleasant, friendly and polite staff, good dining and facilities.

Good, but no longer great.

Celtic Manor has long been one of my favourite hotels, but this stay very much disappointed me. The hotel was as good as ever, the room was great, but dinner in the Olive Tree was very disappointing indeed - starting from an almost hostile greeting (“Have you been here before?”, “Then you know it’s £40 then”) to an extraordinarily long wait for the drink I’d ordered, to an absence of table-service in general (I know it’s buffet, so less service is required, but the table was slow to be cleared, it was difficult to get attention to order another drink, and when I needed to ask a question it took so long to get any attention). They redeemed themselves a little by providing an excellent ‘not on the menu’ pudding (I’m dairy/free, there were no dairy-free options on the buffet) but not enough to make me want to come back.
