Great wedding venue!

Guildford Manor Hotel was a stunning location for our wedding. The grounds are impeccably maintained, and the outdoor area with jacuzzi and amazing views provided perfect photo opportunities throughout the day.

The wedding room itself was bright and airy with huge windows letting in beautiful natural light, and the breakfast room was simple, elegant and lovely.

Sam, our wedding coordinator, and his team were superb - really efficient and organized, which made everything run smoothly. We felt well looked after from start to finish.

To be completely honest, a couple of guest rooms weren't perfect - one had a blocked shower tray and another had a toilet that wasn't working. However, given the fantastic location, the beautiful setting, and the excellent service we received on the day, we're really happy with the value for money.

We'd definitely recommend Guildford Manor Hotel as a wedding venue - the positives far outweigh the minor negatives.

There’s no where else I’d rather get married

We got married at Guildford Manor in July and we had such an amazing day. We could not have asked for a better day. The venue is absolutely stunning and the staff were so lovely, responding to all of our needs. There were lots of behind the scenes aspects that I was not even aware of on the day as the team at the venue were so well versed in what they were doing it made the day run seamlessly. I was also impressed with how well they catered for dietary needs, ensuring all of our guests had what they needed. I would definitely recommend this venue for a wedding.

The perfect setting for our perfect day

The venue was one of our biggest stresses when booking our wedding day, but the team at Guildford Manor made the whole process so easy. Planning was efficient, we were given some clear dates and a timeline for decision making, and the venue took care of catering and table settings which was a load off our mind. They took on our feedback, and were responsive to how we wanted our day to look.

On our actual wedding day the team was responsive and orchestrated everything to the plan we had agreed. We didn't need to worry about a thing! The bride and bridesmaids had a bespoke room to get ready in, and we got married in the sunshine under a pavilion, which was incredible.

Would definitely recommend- it was a perfect day!

An enchanting and wonderful wedding venue

We just got home for our wedding on 5th July 2025 and had the most phenomenal time at Guildford Manor!! Wedding co-ordinator Susmit was extremely thorough and answered emails for months ahead of all the small details and in person visits. Venue is stunning in all areas, with incredibly spacious and gorgeous gardens for our games and photos, right by Newlands corner viewpoint, food was amazing quality and we just cried with happiness at how amazing our wedding was! We are so grateful to Guildford Manor for having our dream wedding!!

Jess and Jason wedding

My wife and I recently got married here and it was fantastic Sam was brilllaint with helping on the day everything ran smoothly, plenty of space for everyone to drink outside and inside. The venue itself is well decorated and we loved the fact that the bar was on the edge of the dance floor along with the huge outside area. The food for the wedding breakfast was amazing and so many people said how nice it was, we had a hog roast in the evening as well and that didn't disappoint at all. We would definitely recommend here to any couple looking for a venue. Jess and Jason

Can't wait for our wedding!

We booked this venue for September this year after visiting the hotel. We met with the owner and her events manager and we were bowled over by the beautiful venue and their professionalism, that we booked immediately! Our events manager responds to all emails in a very timely manner and nothing is too much to ask... We cannot wait to hold our wedding here!

Perfect day

We can’t thank Ishika and the team for making our wedding day perfect, down to every last demand and detail the team bent over backwards to make our day as perfect as we wanted it to be.

We would like to thank you all for helping us make our wedding beautiful and magical, and for all your help and smooth running of the day.

We had such a beautiful wedding, and we cannot thank you all enough.

Ishika, you were amazing so thank you for all your help, and support leading up to the wedding and on the day.

The venue was magical and we were very lucky to have such beautiful weather in October 2024.

Everyone said had beautiful the day was and how amazing and helpful all staff were.

We would 100% recommend Guildford manor and team to everyone for the most perfect wedding day ever.

Not only were the staff so helpful our wedding photos are beautiful with Guildford manor being the centre of our day..

Definitely go and have a look. ❤️

Autumn wedding

We have had nothing but excellent service from Ishika and her team, nothing has been too much trouble for her. From dietary requirements to ground floor accommodation to putting midnight snacks into our guests rooms. The whole set up has been so professional, quick response to my many emails. We were able to put out our chosen decorations the day before. On our day, breakfast was delivered promptly to my room, make up lady shown up, flower girls also. Ishika was always on hand, discretion at all times. Our ceremony went off smoothly, again under the watchful eye of Ishika, drinks and canapés served promptly. Our meal was 1st class so many comments on just how tasty it was. The room was transformed for the evening so smoothly, again under Ishika watchful eye. We had most of our families staying and without exception they all slept well in the comfy rooms, breakfast was a relaxing affair the following morning, no one felt rushed to check out. We will definitely be back and will 100% recommend this hotel and wedding venue.

September Wedding

We recently had our wedding back in September and had a fantastic day! Ishika the event organiser was perfect, responded to our questions quickly and ensured that our day went super smoothly and ran to time!
Food and wine was lovely and everyone and the venue was perfect for what we wanted.
The only comment I would say is that the bedrooms do need a slight update but other wise everything else was lovely.

A fantastic day!

My wife and I had a fantastic day celebrating our wedding - the Reception itself went really well and the settings were beautiful. The bar staff kept up with orders and the food was excellent. Ishika, our wedding manager, made sure any issues were promptly addressed, and overall we felt well looked after!

Our only criticism is that on the morning of the wedding we struggled to get waters/coffees sent up to us, but this did not detract from our overall experience on the day.

Above and beyond to make our day special

I would say from the very start it was perfect but felt communication and making our vision what we wanted wasn't quite so from the start with the wedding coordinator leaving and communications were a little slow during this time. However when Ishika arrived and took over she was fantastic from the get go, we felt heard and respected. She took on board everything we asked of her and nothing was too much to deal with. She was flexible in helping cater required meal choices for guests that couldn't or for some reason had an alternative course to others. Tweaked the kids menu for us as the original dessert choice seemed boring. Was on the ball in smooth transition in managing the set up of our wedding despite running one the day before. The set up she did was everything we wanted and more, she did a beautiful job even handling a mishap with our cake stand not playing ball. We can't thank her enough for managing our day. Huge thanks from Mr and Mrs Jones 🙂

Also top marks to the chef, the food received many compliments!

HR team/reservations could of been a little better, some of the front desk team were lovely, some could perhaps do with some additional training in handling customers.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
