“Upgraded room as was part of the bridal party, hadn’t given the hotel any notice but they immediately upgraded us. Gave us a small room too to get ready in also! Amazing breakfast too!”

“Karen was very friendly and helpful - a perfect host. Rooms were comfortable and had everything we needed. Breakfast was excellent and all the waiting staff were always there when required to help. Location was good too near to the bus depot which was perfect for us as we came over as foot passengers. All in all we loved it!!” Read more

“After a tiring day of walking along the coast, I rang Karen for taxi recommendations. She was fabulous. Someone was in the area and could pick us up. On arrival due to bathroom works, we were upgraded to separate rooms that were gorgeous. Above and beyond service, lovely breakfast too. Go book! ” Read more

“Room looks over a lovely garden. Nice feeling. The chocolate option in the room was brilliant. We expected it to be a pup rather than tea room so we were surprised not to be able to have dinner. As a result it was difficult to make dinner plan so late. But maybe I should have read the description better” Read more

“Breakfast very good. We had a Kimgsize room which was lovely.”

“Location was great, breakfast was amazing, everyone was helpful and friendly. ”

“The hotel was lovely ,staff very sociable without being in any way unprofessional,very polite and genuinely wanted us to feel very relaxed in their surroundings,the road at night , if staying at the front of the hotel can be noisy,if you have the window open,cant help the hot weather,or the traffic.this is not a smite on the hotel,they've created lovely walled gardens which you cannot find in Newport. you return from a day out and sit in the shaded gardens cooling off.so I feel we could both recommend 1 Holyrood to our friends if your looking for an oasis in Newport. Very relaxed sociable environment. Thoroughly enjoyed their hospitality.. ” Read more
