Hotel tired. Restaurant Food greasy and expensive. Service slow but polite. Glass of red wine £16. Breakfast greasy and basic. Chef not interested. Waitresses lovely.Gym tiny. Parking a joke £10 a night.No atmosphere

8 / 10

Stayed with a group of 20, decent breakfast and the Restaurant is fine. Drinks are expensive and was completely put off by having to pay to park as a Hotel resident.

10 / 10

Top tip. Park at the Roman/Montgomerie road and leave you vehicle for free and use the free shuttle service. £10 to park at the hotel as a guest. Big rooms. 2 double beds in a twin. Buffet style food for our group of 36 was spot on. Bar is a bit pricey.

Lovely venue and food

We all had a great time at this hotel

8 / 10

This is a great option for those on a budget. Rooms are spacious and very clean. Decent enough bar and restaurant.

6 / 10

Satisfactory, very good rooms, good shuttle service to all site locations. the food was very good, some service issues that you not experience on the continent, short staffed in some areas. Strange thing,(for a 4 star hotel),to close down the bar service at 11.30 also not to be sitting outside in the courtyard after 9.30pm, disappointing on a warm summer night to say the least. Check/front desk dealings are tediously slow and frustrating. overall though decent clean hotel with good rooms.

10 / 10

Absolutely amazing and welcoming

Convenient proximity to the Courses and just off M4. My room was clean but a little 'tired'. Others in my party has better room with air conditioning.

The hotel & staff were excellent, the room was clean and spacious, no issues there. However, I was not impressed with the £10 per night to park your car, even though we were staying at the Coldra Court itself Also the meal budget of £30 per head given by Your Golf Travel did not cover the evening meal, based on the restaurant prices in the Coldra Court

8 / 10

Overall a great place to stay. Had an upgraded room which was excellent, very spacious and comfortable with nicely-fitted-out bathroom. Only small quibbles would be that there wasn't enough lighting so a little dim. Could also have benefited from a mini-fridge in the room but really comfortable room and bed. Restaurant food and service was very good - excellent caesar salad. Menu choices were a bit meat-heavy with very few options for vegetarians or vegans. Bar prices probably a little above average, especially 2010 clubhouse.

10 / 10

Have to say, the Coldra Court hit the spot for a two night overnight stay. The staff were friendly and helpful, the facilities were good, and the location was spot on. The complementary shuttle transfer service between the hotel and the various courses at Celtic Manor were brilliant. Spa and Gym were okay, maybe some modernisation needed - but still plenty good enough for a short stay. Only negative was that the on site bar was very expensive - nearly £5 for a large soft drink is extortionate and almost diminishes the benefit of not drinking alcohol.

10 / 10

Very clean hotel great staff and good choice of food. The best part is when you need to get to the corses they radio a transfer for you as it 5 mins away from the corses.its a free transfer and the drivers are excellent

10 / 10

Very good and clean rooms and hotel, asked if I could get a massage and reception lady said they don’t. Went swimming and the had a sports massage room there 🤯

Very comfortable stay. Drinks are pricey for that type of hotel however overall very good and enjoyable stay

8 / 10

Room was large, bed comfy king. Bit of faff to start as first 3 rooms were twins so bit of hanging about but they sorted it out.

6 / 10

The room was large and in a good state of decor. Two mid size double beds, we would have preferred one king size double. External appearance of the hotel a little worn & could be improved. Confusion at check in as they had us on the wrong dates, but corrected with a smile. Food OK, nothing exceptional. Location very convenient just off the large roundabout junction with M4, but signage could be better.

10 / 10

Great hotel. Rooms were spot on. Same as the food and the staff

10 / 10

The only negative was having to pay £10 to park car overnight

10 / 10

3rd time here, always been great Booked a return trip in September on the drive home

8 / 10

Lovely hotel, nice bar and restaurant, very polite and helpful staff. Stayed here for a golf trip, highly recommend.

2 / 10

Purchased this "golf resort & PGA course experience" as a gift for my husband & friends. Due to the recent bad weather the courses were unplayable ... but this was not communicated prior to the group making a 4hour journey from Yorkshire to S. Wales. So the group arrived to find no golf available to play. The golf can be re-booked however the accommodation cannot. Very disappointed that 6 people took two days off work to make this special trip only to find it a "wash-out" in more than one way. The most disappointing part was the total lack of communication from the resort to advise what were the options prior. The golf team knew the course was totally unplayable. Very unprofessional and very unfair of the organisation.

6 / 10

8 / 10

The hotel was ideal and well located. The staff and venue were first class. The car parking fee of £10 per night was an unexpected surprise.

10 / 10

Really lovely. Great facilities on site. Quality food, spacious rooms.

6 / 10

After arriving and being told we weren't booked in, eventually the reservation was found at 17.00 and with good PR in mind, we were upgraded to a slightly better room. All in all Coldra is what it is, a slightly dated, slightly upmarket travel hotel, that is quite large, with a large number of people passing through, with the bare mimimum staffing levels, which has been honed by the years of its experience of minimum staffing levels. Rooms are good but leaving the last occupants bottles and glasses outside of every room along the corridor wasn't the high end of welcome to your room nor good service.

8 / 10

Decent hotel, only thing that let it down was the state of the leisure facilities. Steam room was out of order and the jacuzzi was intermittent

10 / 10

Very good dinner excellent. Breakfast could have been hotter but good choice.

10 / 10

A one night stay at this hotel with Bed, breakfast and evening meal (£25 allowance each) and a round of golf on the Twenty Ten Ryder cup championship course was a memorable experience and the staff from hotel to Pro shop to welcome at the golf venue and the locker room exploration was an amazing experience from start to finish. We cannot thank the staff enough for the very warm welcome and are already planning to return next spring for a longer break.

8 / 10

Shame you get charged £8.50 per night.

8 / 10

The hotel services are very good and comparable value versus the cost of staying in the main resort.

8 / 10

8 / 10

Hotel was lovely. Food was very nice. £8.50 for parking over night was a bit steep especially when we paid all that money for the holiday. And got charged 10% gratitude tip for food when we checked out the next morning. Wanted to buy a shirt from the pro shop but did not have 1 shirt that was xxl or xxxl. Loads of small, medium + large. Come on pro shop. About time we had some clothes for the larger people. Overall the stay , courses and hotel are not as good as they were a few years ago. Cant even spend cash, that was a bit of a pain. My friend didnt have a bank card, only had cash.

10 / 10

Amazing value for money

10 / 10

Hotel & their staff were great .. only very minor gripe is the price of drinks butcthis did not distract from how good the staff in particular are.

8 / 10

Only criticism is the hotel is not easily found from Celtic manor, apart from that room was great.

10 / 10

10 / 10

Staff were so helpful and friendly. Especially front desk

10 / 10

Fantastic

10 / 10

Very Good Hotel . It would be a lot better as a group if we paid in advance for the parking.

6 / 10

Ideal for a short golf stay. We would have like to have known about the no cash rule on all CM properties

10 / 10

Great base for a couple of days golf.

8 / 10

Rooms were clean and well presented, no plug socket for the kettle we had to put it on the bedside table. Also parking charge £8.50 per night. We were not told about the minibus shuttle from the hotel to the course or free parking by the club house (leave the car at celtic manor and use shuttle)

6 / 10

Unfortunately, the Coldra was overbooked. We didn't find this out until we turned up there. However, we were moved to the main Celtic Manor Hotel which was very good.

8 / 10

No real complaints on the hotel. Annoying that parking is extra and no one tells you till you check out.

8 / 10

very good!

8 / 10

Hotel staff were really helpful and we all enjoyed our stay and meal only thing that was a bit cheeky was the £8.50 parking fee

2 / 10

Lovely hotel But not happy having to pay £8.50 per day to park at hotel when already paid to stay there

10 / 10

10 / 10

Great time in the hotel. Bonus of gym and spa use helped at the end of long golf days. Only needed to check on parking situation as does seem a little cheeky asking for parking fees when staying at hotel and also asking for two nights worth. Other than that, good food and value for money! Would highly recommend

10 / 10

Superb all round. Very enjoyable stay. 5 mins from the golf courses.

10 / 10

We could not have been happier with our choice of stay, excellent value for money 👌

8 / 10

Originally disappointed not to be in Celtic Manor. However the hotel room was great and the Smokehouse restaurant was excellent! Slight downside was loud stag group which detracted slightly from an overall good experience.

10 / 10

First class

8 / 10

This is a great hotel, everyone is geared towards helping the guest enjoy the experience. Bit difficult to find your way around from the golf courses but it's a gem.

10 / 10

8 / 10

Accommodation was as expected, but it is effectively separate from Celtic Manor. There was no shuttle, which meant we had to rely on the local taxi company to shuttle us. This is a small fare trip for them, which meant we waited +1hr for a car to become available. We booked a cab to collect us and take us back to the course for day 2, but this showed up 25 minutes late which meant we almost missed our tee time and had a very rushed start. Staff were as helpful as they could be, but I would say if you can't get into the main resort and don't have a car, consider other courses.

10 / 10

As always our stay was great and couldn’t ask for more! The only thing that we miss is the sprinter vans that take you from the courses to Coldra court and up to the Manor House in the evening, I think they would be a very welcome return

6 / 10

Room was pleasant enough, and serviced as hoped for. I was with a party of 8, staying 2 nights dinner B&B. We had a paltry £20 a night dinner allowance which didn’t even cover most of the main courses. The hotel is card payment only which caused a nightmare for a group used to a cash kitty, so with the differing food and drink costs we needed a qualified accountant to work out individual costs. Very disappointing!

8 / 10

Good location if your golfing. Smokehouse restaurant was excellent. Rooms were fine but could do with a bit of a refurb. If you can’t get into Celtic Manor it’s a decent option but not quite to the same standard as it’s big sister at the top of the hill. Parking charges for guests feel a bit excessive.

8 / 10

Excellent hotel and facilities, very close to golf resort, beware of £8.50 overnight parking charge.

8 / 10

Pleasant hotel, good staff and food good value

10 / 10

Just the job

10 / 10

Just perfect for a golf trip. Couldn’t fault it.

8 / 10

The rooms were fine and what we expected, The bar was good although expensive as you expect The restaurant was very good the food was very good staff are very good, the only problem was there was a query with the bill we was expecting a £20 allowance in the restaurant as we had booked dinner bed and breakfast in the original booking but the reception were trying to charge us the excess. I showed the manager the original booking which clearly states dinner bed and breakfast. it was sort but again our group wasn’t happy either mess up.

8 / 10

Lovely hotel with good facilities. Staff are very friendly. Only complaint is I ordered a double room and had two single beds pushed together. Not very comfortable! If you pay for a double room, it should be a true double bed!

10 / 10

Very clean and the service was excellent. My only niggle was the bar prices but, I would return

4 / 10

The hotel was clean and the room spacious and comfortable. Very expensive for drinks when compared to other local hotels.

6 / 10

Parking isn’t included and have to pay £8.50 per car over night which our group thought was off, should be included in the price. Selection at the restaurant was okay, lots of meat and general options. No pasta on the menu. Service was slow in the evening, over 2 hrs for main and dessert. Coffee in the morning tasted odd but selection otherwise was good. Bar quite pricey but expect that I guess.

10 / 10

Lovely hotel , ideally placed for the golf courses . Really helpful and pleasant staff . Brilliant value for money , highly recommend.

8 / 10

Good hotel, good rooms, no problems

8 / 10

Absolutely Disgusted at having to pay £7.50 a night to park., especially as I was there with a friend who also had a car. No shuttle bus to the golf course which is not ‘just across’ the road. Drinks very pricey. Would not return.

8 / 10

Overall rating a 4* Checking in took a little time as colleagues clearly new. Didn't mind myself as could see this, however some guests weren't being so polite. Room was large and comfortable. Outside drinking space closed off at reasonable hour and outside lower floor rooms. Not sure if hotel is being updated but our bathroom was very outdated and not what I would have expected. Some others in our group had new walk in showers etc. Others in the group used the pool, sauna etc and we're really pleased with this. Hot breakfasts were cold each morning, we did mention this however didn't get any better the next day. Bar food and main restaurant were simple choices but very nice priced reasonably. Restaurant colleagues and most bar colleagues were very attentive and great to have a chat to and engage with. Alex the manager and Ethan the bar colleague were fantastic. Stayed over the ryder cup weekend and they didn't seem prepared for this, with one TV in the golf and a projector that clearly wasn't up to the task. There will be a few complaints I'm sure from golfers about this weekend.

Not sure what happened at the Coldra but will not be staying here again any time soon, missed meals as not delivered on some cases! We waited 2 hours for meals on the first night and staff were setting out breakfast tables while we were waiting for our main courses. The desserts on the second night did not get delivers at all, and we left to go to bed without eating desserts it was again so late. The staff were apologetic but we missed out on our food that had been paid for in advance. The Hôtel Manager is supposed to be calling me.

8 / 10

Really nice hotel. Staff and service was very good. When booking I thought it was on the Celtic Manor Resort.Not a short drive on main roads.

Everything excellent just the breakfast let it down

4 / 10

Last time our group stayed here we were able to order food off of a menu,this time we were given choices buffet style and the quality has definitely suffered for it,as organiser i had a lot of complaints about the food,also the service behind the bar was very slow

10 / 10

Very good and accommodating staff, hotel was clean, Breakfast could have been a bit hotter, but overall good

10 / 10

Enjoyed stay and facilities at the Coldra Court.

10 / 10

Excellent hotel, food was really good and fairly priced, drinks were reasonably priced unlike the bar at the course. Would recommend

8 / 10

The Staff were amazing. They looked after our group of 20 very well, catering to the needs of our guys well around the COVID restrictions in place. The food was great on the evening, as they put on a buffet and area for us to watch the football. The bar staff were a little over run, but were clearly working hard and remaining very calm in the face of some trying behaviour from one or two of our group. Well dont for that. The only downside was the taxi service from the Golf clubhouse back to Coldra Court. The minibus only shuttled to the main resort, and the on call taxi service promised could not facilitate the size of our group very easily, and we were left waiting for about 90 minutes trying to navigate getting transport for the 4 minute drive back to the hotel. Beyond this, there was absolutely nothing they could have done better. Thanks for a great stay.

Nice room, evening meal okay, cooked breakfast poor, they need to find out that mushrooms need to be cooked, staff were very nice, room was nice.

10 / 10

Second time of staying at this hotel when playing golf at the Celtic Manor, always wonderful staff and an relaxed easy hotel to stay in whilst on your golf trip, slightly marred by the Covid experience but i guess that is part of life now.

Very friendly and accomodating staff make your stay enjoyable. Lovely hotel.

6 / 10

Nice hotel with good facilities. Evening meal was excellent although my brother didn’t receive his starter or main until the rest of our party had finished. Breakfast was mediocre.

8 / 10

Hotel and rooms were clean and well maintained. Breakfast was well organised with a good choice. Unfortunately suffered from some of the hot items being kept too long in containers and becoming dried out. Dinners were well cooked and presented. Staff all pleasant and helpful.

8 / 10

10 / 10

Hotel brilliant my only issue I had was not enough buses to and from hotel to course

10 / 10

We had the fortune of being upgraded so enjoyed two double beds and an exceedingly pleasant room. Staff were courteous and very helpful.

10 / 10

5 minutes from the Celtic Manor complexing but free shuttle bus available. Food great, drinks a tad expensive but that’s norm these days. My only gripe is that when I pay for the privilege of staying at a hotel I don’t expect to have to pay to park my car on the hotel car park, wrong in my eyes. Other than that good value for money

10 / 10

Great staff Excellent service Brilliant facilities Bar reasonable prices Restaurant great quality food

4 / 10

Bed was uncomfortable and small we were given a double bed not two singles, which had to be changed, the food was really awful, and it was too far from the resort. The bar area is like an airport lounge or waiting room with zero atmosphere both in the front and the back.

6 / 10

When we tried to book in the staff had no details of who was rooming with who despite me putting in all the details well beforehand on your booking form. The rooms were all meant to be twins but 3 of them had been made up as doubles so that was another cock-up. The £100 resort voucher I was given at the time of booking, they knew nothing about that which was another embarrassment (they did honour it the next day though) and at the end of the stay they charged me £35 for drinks I never had so simply not good enough.

8 / 10

Without being luxurious the Coldra Court was clean, comfortable spacious. The restaurant served a variety of meals to suit most palates. Service was a little slow but the staff were courteous and helpful.

10 / 10

I complemented a few staff on their professionalism and courtesy (intended to be passed to all the staff we were involved with) - and told them that I thought my experience at Trump's Aberdeen Links couldn't be beaten. They did - by a small margin - which is magnificent. Congratulations to the staff at Caldra Court and the golfing staff at Celtic Manner on all courses.

8 / 10

The actual hotel is very nice, big rooms with big comfy beds. Good shower room, TV & tea making facilities. A little bit of noise from the corridor outside, but not too late or early. Slightly disappointed with the restaurant, the starters were good, but the main a little bland & tasteless, both of us ordered the pork belly with crackling, gratin potatoes & carrot puree. The pork was slightly dry & tasteless, as was the crackling. the gratin potatoes were soggy & tasteless & the carrot puree was no more than a squirt of garnish. To be fair they offered us free dessert as way of compensation, but the menu was very limited & nothing took our fancy, so they gave us a couple of free drinks instead.
