We had our special wedding held at the emlyn hotel on the 15-02-2025. What a lovely venue! From the very first meeting with Julie we just felt like our wedding would run perfect! Julie went above and beyond to cater for our day and night. The bar staff, waiters & waitresses, hotel staff were all fantastic and made sure everyone was happy and enjoying! The food was outstanding, everyone complimented on how lovely the service was along with the meals they had!
Recently got married at the hotel and it was perfect. The staff were really friendly, the hotel manager Julie is lovely. The rooms were really nice and not pricey. Would definitely recommend to friends and family
If your looking for your wedding venue, come and pay Juile and her team a visit They were totally amazing from day one. Every single question answered, never felt like we shouldn't ask anything, they always offered suggestions and advice which made our day even better. Our wedding breakfast was amazing. Everyone still asks how the sauce was made... the staff work so well together a true team. Staff who care about us. The hotel is so clean, the rooms amazing and comfortable. The gardens kept beautiful and clean. You will absolutely love this beautiful venue. Thank you for helping us organise the best day ever Mr&Mrs Carter-Clare
Went for our daughter's wedding and had a great time, the staff were incredibly helpful and all went exceptionally well but we were a little concerned at breakfast on Sunday morning (served between 08:00 and 09;00 only) when we were in the first 5 couples down to eat. The chap on the next table - he said he was the first person down - had the full English breakfast, and was merrily munching his way through two sausages, two rashers of bacon, two hash browns, two eggs, mushrooms and beans. I tried to order similar but was asked not to, and to order only one of each as "they may run out of food" As the hotel was fully booked, I would have expected the staff to have ordered sufficient food to cater adequately for everyone? It was only a minor inconvenience, but for the price (£140 per night) you'd think two sausages would not be unreasonable.
My husband and myself got married at the Emlyn on the 29th December 2024. The wedding day for us was incredible and we had the best day we could have ever asked for, our guests loved the venue and all commented on how gorgeous the venue was, how good the food was and how lovely the staff were. Everything was perfect, i didn’t worry about wanting, Julie was like a wedding coordinator/ angel throughout the entire booking experience, visits and the day itself. Julie is so beyond incredible at what she’s does and made our day perfect. We had a power cut at 5am whilst getting ready (not uncommon in December in Carmarthenshire to be fair) and Julie had a plan A,B & C just in case we needed it. As a bride having Julie there was what kept me calm throughout the entire thing from early planning to the day we checked out after the wedding. Thank you Julie. The rest of the team were also Absoloutely incredible and deserve all of the praise they can get, they were friendly, polite and quick at their job, no one had to wait for drinks and nothing was too much to ask. Even down to the staff dishing me up and dinner so I could have it once I took my dress off as I couldn’t eat at the time. The venue itself is so pretty and exactly what we wanted. I wanted quite a simple look and didn’t have much in the way of centre pieces etc and it’s the kind of venue that’s beautiful both with and without all centre pieces and decorations. If you’re thinking of getting married in this venue, do it. I thought it would be too good to be true because of the cost being significantly better than most places, however it really is just that good. My husband and I stayed at the hotel the night of the wedding and the room was spacious and the breakfast was lovely! It was so nice to see our family and friends the next morning and catch up on the night before. We will ABSOLOUTELY come back to visit, hopefully near our anniversary and hope that we can experience a wedding here as a guest next time.
Stayed for 2 nights. Rooms were spotless. Enjoyed breakfast, I went for the full English, I am not quite sure if they called it that, being that I was in deepest Wales :). All members of staff were courteous. I would highly recommend this hotel.
