Average Rating: 5 out of 5 - based on 22 reviews

Our wedding was a long time in the planning and we liaised with three professionals at The Grand during that time; Gabrielle, Melissa and Stella at the end. Initially we were concerned that this might affect continuity in the planning but nothing could have been further from the truth – all three …

were excellent. We have to especially mention Stella who was our point of contact in the three months leading up to our day (and was even there on the day itself). Stella was well organised, an outstanding communicator and had superb attention to detail. Planning a wedding has a lot of moving parts and potential pitfalls but she really took the stress out of the whole process. Every single member of staff worked tirelessly to make us, and our guests , completely welcome. The standard of the food for the wedding breakfast and evening buffet was superb. We'd also like to mention how efficient and unobtrusive the serving staff were – they were choreographed with military precision and all our party were served with hot food within minutes of each other. At the end of the day we misplaced something which was eventually recovered with the help of the staff – who couldn't have been more efficient or helpful. We have no hesitation in recommending The Grand to anyone who wants to marry in spectacular surroundings whilst being treated with the highest standards of efficiency, courtesy and outstanding professionalism.

We had an amazing time from start to finish, thank you so much to you and your team for making sure everything ran smoothly, everything we needed was there whenever we needed it.

I would like to thank each and everyone for our wedding Billie-Jo was fantastic Lee and I couldn’t of been happier with are day overwhelmed at how amazing the grand hotel did it for us! Thank you so much.

The service of the hotel was amazing. They did everything in their power to ensure us and our guests were always happy. Even when there were mistakes they handled them in the most professional way and went above and beyond to put them right. Billie-Jo was amazing and worked hard to ensure everything …

went as perfectly as possible.

We had a fantastic wedding day at The Grand Hotel. We were made to feel very special by everyone in the hotel.

We cannot thank Melissa, Stella and Megan enough for looking after us so well. Nothing was too much trouble and the ladies honoured all of our requests and treated our wedding day (and …

lead up to it) with high priority.

We feel lucky to have chosen a venue who is considerate of their guests, and who does not treat their venue as a wedding conveyor belt. Thank you for making our wedding day so amazing!
