Perfect wedding day

From our first enquiry till now even a week after our wedding the service from the hotel and all staff have been impeccable. Us and our guests wanted for nothing. Everyone was attentive, professional, respectful and kind. Everyone was approachable and gave great service. Our venue was fantastic value for money. I had a bridal suite booked for the night before the wedding and the room was absolutely stunning. My hair and make up had plenty of space to do their jobs and had been to the venue before and had nothing but complimentary things to say. We used the hotels recommend suppliers for our disco wich was sugar promotions and the DJ was fantastic. We also used Anderson crafts for our wedding stationary who are also a recommended supplier and the stationary was beautiful, supplied promptly, I think I have made friends for life there. Georgia was our main point of contact through our wedding planning and wow what can we say, friendly , professional, so attentive. Kept us informed of all processes from booking the wedding to the day. Really listened to our needs and the hotel kitchen were so accommodating to our guests dietary needs also. Our toastmaster Russell was wonderful at corralling our guests for photo opportunities and to the timetable of our day he also worked brilliantly alongside our wedding photographer florence berry. We will be staying again for sure for our first anniversary. The hotel is home away from home for us. Thank you to all the staff at hythe Imperial hotel you made our wedding the most incredible day us and our guests will be talking about for years to come.

The best Wedding Day

We got married here on a Saturday, and stayed the Friday before. We had such an amazing experience. All our guest have also commented that the venue is beautiful and such nice food. Was honestly our dream wedding day. Wouldn't change a thing. Georgia our wedding coordinator is a true credit to your team at hythe imperial, all the staff are friendly and welcoming. The beautiful chandelier was the main attraction to us choosing this wedding venue as I love bling ✨️ and wow it makes the most beautiful photos to cherish for a lifetime.

Beautiful, professional friendly staff ideal location

We had the most amazing day at the Hythe Imperial Hotel. The guys there are amazing , nothing is too much trouble, they are professional, friend and make you feel like there’s nothing to worry about. The day ran seamlessly, the location and building are beautiful. We stayed the night before and the night of the wedding, the rooms are beautifully decorated and super comfortable, we made use of the spa, with a relaxing massage each before our big day. We would not change a thing about our day here, it was perfect.
