A new documentary is set to give an insight into life at Cliveden House - where Meghan and her mother Doria stayed the night before the royal wedding.
Channel 4's A Very British Country House shows staff at the five-star hotel in Berkshire getting into a frenzy as they prepared to welcome a top secret VIP guest, from chefs in the kitchen to the maintenance men.
One of the hotel's Grade I-listed suites, featuring a plush bed and antique furniture, is seen being painted ahead of the arrival - with speculation mounting over who the guest might be.
It is not clear whether this is the exact room that the Duchess of Sussex, 37, stayed in on the night before her wedding - but it is likely that she would have stayed in a similar suite in May.
Channel 4's A Very British Country House shows staff at Cliveden House, Berkshire - where Meghan and Doria stayed the night before the royal wedding - getting into a frenzy as they prepared to welcome a top secret VIP guest. It is not clear if this is the exact room where Meghan stayed, but it was repainted before the arrival of an important visitor
Staff ensured they laid on the red-carpet treatment for Meghan and her mother Doria, 62, when they stayed at the £1,500-a-night hotel, set in nearly 400 acres of National Trust countryside.
Speaking about the 'honour' of having Meghan stay at the hotel, butler Michael says in the programme: 'Various different people had various different ideas about who it might have been or might not have been.
'We were all very excited when we found who it was. We felt like we'd pulled the plum on that one. It was an exciting honour. It's nice to be part of such of a big, and world-wide event.'
General manager Kevin, who greeted Meghan and her mother Doria on their arrival, added: 'It was just the most beautiful wedding, and the most beautiful day.

'For Cliveden to have just a very small part of that, albeit the night before, was just amazing'.
He revealed that the Meghan effect has been in full action at the hotel in the aftermath of the wedding, with numbers of guests soaring after two million people watched the Duchess leaving Cliveden with Doria on the morning of her wedding.
Staff revealed that the number of wedding enquiries for Cliveden had also risen since Harry and Meghan's big day, although there were still some concerns about negative Trip Advisor reviews.
In the first episode of the Channel 4, the careful preparation that goes into welcoming a VIP guest to the hotel was evident during the first episode of the Channel 4 documentary.
Speaking about the speculation over who the visitor might be, receptionist Chloe said: 'We know that it's going to be someone that's higher-ranking in the VIP world.

The documentary offers a glimpse into the luxurious interiors of the Grade I listed suites at the hotel where the Duchess of Sussex stayed ahead of the royal wedding
'There are a lot of whispers, it's a bit of a guessing game as to who it is. It's definitely putting the pressure on us big time.'
Meanwhile, maintenance man Mark was seen repainting a luxury suite ahead of the special visitor, but admitted he didn't know who the guest was.
'There's a VIP coming that wants to stay this room. We've been asked by the management to basically re-paint the bad areas of the room,' he explained.
Kensington Palace announced just days before the royal wedding on May 19 that Meghan and her mother Doria would be staying at the Cliveden House, where previous guests have included the likes of Winston Churchill, Charlie Chaplin and the Queen Mother.
Harry stayed 15 miles away at the Dorchester Collection’s Coworth Park in Ascot, close to the Guards Polo Club, with his best man and brother the Duke of Cambridge.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
