Facilities and Capacity

When you get married at Guildford Harbour Hotel & Spa, you will find a truly unique venue to share with family and friends. Its enviable central location and wonderfully quirky decor blend exceptionally well with the simple elegance of The Prelude Suite, the setting for your celebrations. Guildford Harbour Hotel offers everything you would expect from a deluxe hotel: the delightful combination of the classic and contemporary creates an interesting and unique venue. Every inch of the hotel’s interiors is immaculately decorated in luxurious style, and the floor to ceiling glass lobby and beautiful chandelier exude modern elegance.

Licensed for marriage ceremonies, The Prelude Suite is an elegant setting for your Big Day celebrations. It is large enough to seat up to 160 guests but entirely flexible to accommodate much smaller celebrations. Naturally flowing onto the private terrace, which provides a relaxing setting for a drinks reception, it is ideal for mingling with your guests following the ceremony. The versatile terrace is fully equipped with a state-of-the-art sound system and a retractable roof to make the most of summer sunshine or to cover you in the colder months.

Amazing Wedding Venue

We held our wedding at the Guildford Harbour Hotel on the 24th August and the experience was truly amazing from start to finish! The venue has an amazing feel which is exactly what we wanted. We had Georgie as our wedding coordinator to start with who was brilliant and explained everything clearly and was a complete delight to deal with. Georgie then went onto maternity leave and we were seamlessly handed over to Kat, who was equally as amazing! She looked after us brilliantly in the weeks leading up to the wedding answering all of our questions and extremely helpful with all of our requests. On the day, we couldn’t have asked for more from everyone at the hotel. Kat ensured everything ran smoothly and on time whilst keeping us at ease and relaxed. She has an equally high attention to detail so we knew everything was in safe hands! Everyone at the hotel from the reception staff to the bar staff were extremely friendly and made us feel welcome at all times. It really was the best day of our lives and the staff and hotel itself played a massive part in that! If anyone is thinking of having there wedding or event here, do it!! You won’t be disappointed!

Lovely hotel, amazing wedding organised by a super

I got married at this hotel on 25/08/2018 and i have to say this hotel is absolutely fantastic. Lovely spa, comfortable rooms, friendly and helpful staff, this hotel was the perfect setting for our wedding. The biggest plus point this hotel has is its staff especially my Wedding Planner Georgina Shaw who proved to be an absolutely diamond.
Georgina was superb and so so supportive. She made everything come together and was on hand through out the whole planning of the wedding and of course on the big day, she went above and beyond for us and for that i can never repay her. Having someone there to help you through it really ensures the whole process is smooth running.
I would 100% recommend this hotel to everyone, for an overnight stay, to hold your wedding here- this hotel has it. 5*. Thank you i cannot thank these guys enough especially Georgina.

Wedding Celebration

We chose the Harbour Hotel for our wedding breakfast and reception. The hotel is really modern with great décor. Really good value with a reception area and a large room for dining and dancing room and an outdoor patio. Great food and generous portions. Georgie and her colleagues couldn't have been more accommodating to make our day go smoothly

the most perfect evening

Thank you so much to the Guildford Harbour Hotel for everything you have done for us over the past few months. We had such an amazing night, with all of our guests being so impressed by how smoothly the whole night ran - and we could not have done any of this without our wedding fairies. ( Rosin & Georgie) Being able to trust you to setup the entire reception with very little actual direction from myself made the day an entirely different (stress-free!) experience, and allowed us to enjoy every moment. From our initial enquiry to the wedding day setup, you helped a moderately clueless bride have the most perfect evening, for which I cannot thank you enough!

Mike also sends his thanks for keeping me reasonably stress-free during the stressful run up to the wedding!

Thanks again,

Mr. and Mrs. Mourounas!

massive thank you

I would like to say a massive thank you to the Guildford Harbour Hotel for everything, the whole day ran so smoothly and we are both so happy with every single thing!

everything ran smoothly and went to plan. I would like to thank the Wedding Coordinators for answering my 110 questions and for going over ever single detail with me before the big day to ensure everything went swimmingly.

The Staff made us both feel completely at ease and relaxed about the day as we knew you were both on top of every single detail.

The room its self looked amazing, thank you for setting everything up, this really took a massive stress off myself and helped me to enjoy the morning of the wedding!

All of our guests have commented on how lovely the food was and how great the staff were with the wedding service.

I am so happy that our wedding day turned out to be even more perfect than we imagined!

Roisin & Georgie are a huge credit to the company and really changed our experience massively from when you took over and I could not recommend you enough to future brides who are looking to get married.

THANK YOU!
