22-25 April 2026 
We have just released a very small number of luxury upgrades at Celtic Manor resort and Ty Newport, available to anyone booking their hotel for SQLBits at the same time as their SQLBits pass.
At the swanky Celtic Manor Resort, you can upgrade from a standard Superior room to the Celtic Manor’s Signature Collection room. Each Signature Collection room features a king-size bed, sitting area, marble bathroom with a large vanity unit, bath and a separate shower with a host of Elemis amenities and balcony with stunning views. Signature Collection guests will be served breakfast in the exclusive surroundings of the sixth floor restaurant, overlooking beautiful Welsh woodlands (you can then enjoy a second breakfast when you arrive at SQLBits!)
Signature Collection guests also have unlimited access to the exclusive adults-only Signature Lounge, where throughout the day you can enjoy complimentary tea and coffee, complimentary morning pastries and afternoon sweet treats as well as one complimentary glass of Prosecco between 4pm – 6pm. Enjoy spectacular panoramic views whilst sipping your favourite beverage!
Alternatively, if you prefer to stay at the newly built Ty Newport, you can upgrade a standard booking to Ty Newport’s exclusive adults-only floor with access to the Ty+ Lounge, offering spacious superior king and twin rooms, and access to a wide range of complimentary extras to make your stay even more comfortable – including a complimentary alcohol drink, morning pastries and snacks.
Your upgrade includes the following and more:
- Ty+ Lounge access, including a complimentary alcoholic drink with snacks in the evening, morning pastries and shortbread
- Located on adult only floor with fluffy slippers, coffee machine and complimentary Welsh cakes
- Guaranteed early check-in from 3pm
You can access either of these upgrades for just £30 a night; simply choose King Upgrade from the Room Type dropdown in the Hotel Request section when making or editing your booking.
