I would like to share our huge thanks to you and the team for such a wonderful wedding and weekend. From the moment we came for our first visit, to us checking out on Sunday, we were made to feel so welcome and special.

It is obvious that you all work in a very special environment; from our point of view, it is clear that you all love working at the hotel. This shows in the way you deal with guests and how you care about every little detail.

The day was fabulous, we loved every minute and now wishing it wasn’t over quite so quickly! We will be back next year to celebrate our anniversary.

Well what can I say about Donnington Valley what an amazing hotel and what amazing staff I am so please that when I went to the wedding fair I decided to book and that’s the best decision I made because they made it the most amazing day.
The hotel is absolutely beautiful and the staff where so kind and caring and went out of their way to make sure everything was perfect in which it was. I would recommend Donnington Valley hotel to anyone who wants the most wonderful day.

We celebrated our wedding reception at Donnington Valley with 100 guests in October. The official bit was done abroad and we wanted to be able to celebrate the day and share some of the memories out there as well as making more with our family and friends. We had a disco and buffet with plenty of tables to sit at and catch up and space to dance. Becky also supplied a Tv so we could show our photos from the day abroad, so those that couldn’t be there could enjoy them as well.

Becky and her team at the hotel made it easy from start to finish. We checked out a lot of different places but We were wowed from the time we walked in the front door and looked around. We explained what we would like and there was nothing that was a problem. From sweets to swords, sliders to speeches.
The room we used was dressed perfectly and Becky and her team were on hand to get everything ready. We literally did nothing, but turn up. The food was amazing and many of our guests have commented how tasty it was and there was plenty of it.
Many of us stayed over night and made use of the spa before hand which was a great way to relax.
The following morning we had our own private breakfast room so our guests could analyse the evenings events over a full English, fruit or a croissant. We were made to feel very special. Thank you again.

I Married Andrew Woods on the 6th May 2017 and I could not have faulted the attentative time given to us from beginning to end of our Wedding planning from Lucy Young and Adam Ainsworth from Donnington Valley Spa Hotel.
Every detail was meticulously noted and nothing was too much trouble even on the third tweak!
We were invited to an evening of food and wine tasting to make sure we were totally happy with the menu for the day, minor changes were made to accommodate us, we had guests that were vegetarians and this was no issue either.
Lucy the Wedding and Events Co-Ordinator became the liaison between all the different aspects of pulling the Wedding Day together and at no time did I feel out of touch.
On the day we could not have been looked after more than we were, every effort and more was made to make our day perfect. The staff worked tirelessly to accommodate all our guests needs and the day will always be fondly remembered as Our Wedding Day and made special on so many levels.
We would totally recommend contacting and using Donnington Valley Spa Hotel .
