St Pierre Park Hotel
Latest Reviews
From check in (with Craig, who despite being a 'trainee' was enormously friendly and helpful) through to check out, this was a pleasant stay with warm, welcoming staff and great facilities.
I was staying as I was working just around the corner so on this trip didn't leave the hotel to explore but found it had plenty to entertain me.
Had lunch, dinner, and breakfast in the pleasant surroundings of the bar and breakfast room. Breakfast deserves a special mention as the range, quality and freshness of the selection was impressive.
As for the room, spacious, lovely balcony, nespresso coffee machine, iPod dock, great ensuite. My only reservation (and the only reason this didn't get 5 stars) was the rather lumpy bed which was pretty uncomfortable. I can sleep on anything however and I was tired so this didn't cause me a problem.
All in all a very good stay.

Location is little bit outside of St Peter port, about 20 minute walk. Nice pool and gym. We mostly ate in the bar, and didn't try the restaurant. Big portion sizes in the bar. Good breakfast, lots to choose from. I had a room with a coffee machine and iPod dock, although I don't think this is a standard in all rooms.

We recently spent a few days at this hotel. The rooms were of a high corporate standard without being earth shattering, but were well appointed and had everything we needed. Breakfast was excellent with a massive buffet selection which all seemed fresh and very tasty. Didn't suffer from slow replenishment as some other hotels we have stayed at. Staff were plentiful, very friendly and helpful. The leisure complex was well equipped and clean. The grounds are wonderful with a large lake in the garden (although the fountain played havoc with my bladder while in the gym).
We didn't use the hotels restaurant so can't comment but there is a huge choice of places to eat in town. Hire car was worth having as its a long walk to the harbour area (about 30 mins). We had a bar snack on arrival and that was very good.

OK, so our suite was lovely, with good facilities, a connecting extra room so we could keep the kids out of earshot and a fabulous terrace garden with lovely views of the gardens/lake/golf course, loads of furniture and a hot tub to die for.
The staff were very attentive and friendly and there seemed plenty of them.
The grounds are also lovely and the common areas are fine, if not a patch on the suite. It all sort of goes down hill after that thought I'm afraid.
We had a shocking lunch when we first arrived - my seafood salad seemed to have all come straight from the 'deli' counter at Tesco with very little fresh fish in sight, and Mrs D's Caesar salad had the soggiest croutons and half cooked bacon imaginable. The kiddies' jacket potatoes had most definitely seen better days. Anyway, we voted with our feet and didn't dare eat at the hotel again...
What made this trip memorable though (for all the wrong reasons) was the incredible racket we had to put up with on our first night from the wedding party downstairs. The whole place was literally vibrating to the rhythm of the bass line. Amazing. I had a right royal rant and the very gracious receptionist Sinead immediately offered us another room. However as the kids were asleep next door one of us to stay in the suite while I, the lucky one, got to move to a quieter room. The whole thing put a major dampener on our stay though as we were pretty shattered after a hard week's work, and really just wanted to go to bed when we go to the hotel. As a result we were both tired the next day and had to deal with our lively kids without enough sleep. Hardly what you pay for a suite for!
The manager did refund the cost of the first night at my request; on the suite, not on the extra room, which might have been reasonable in the circumstances, but total war was avoided.
So, if you are planning on staying here make sure you ask if there is a wedding on and if your room is above the party venue, because if it is I very much doubt if you will sleep!

We stayed for a long weekend, arriving on a Thursday evening. There was always plenty of car parking available only a few yards from the entrance. The staff, very welcoming, looked good in their uniforms, and gave us all the information we needed about the hotel and its facilities.
The room was large, with a huge bed (actually 2 smaller beds pushed together), but very comfortable. There was plenty of storage space. Tea and coffee making facilities were available. There was a balcony with a table and 2 chairs, which we could have used if the weather had been better. The bathroom appeared to be recently refurbished and was spotless. Wifi worked fine.
Breakfast was really impressive - a really large room with lots of tables and chairs, so it never seemed crowded. A huge selection of cereals and both hot and cold foods served buffet style. The staff were very attentive, bringing drinks very quickly and clearing used plates immediately.
The swimming pool and spa were available indoors - we didn't use other options such as gym, sauna, relaxation room, but they were available. Also available were massages, hairdressers. There was an a la carte restaurant with a good range of selections (15% discount if you arrived before 7pm). There was also a selection of bar meals available in the bar, which were good value.
Outside were 3 tennis courts and a crazy golf course, which wew didn't use because the weather was rainy for much of our stay. There was also a golf course.

This is a very good hotel. The food was outstanding and the facilities excellent. The grounds, lake and golf course are beautiful. The staff go out of their way to help you and everything runs smoothly. The only reason I have not graded this excellent is that the duvet was very thin and I was cold in bed. We would definitely return.

I spent two nights in the hotel. I would rate it as good rather than excellent. It is a friendly and well run hotel with prompt service and pretty reasonable prices for the area. A couple of niggles - the wi-fi was intermittent in my room of the 2nd floor, my room was very hot and I couldn't find a way of cooling it down and the tea tray was sparse. Walls are quite thin so I was treated to some midnight sneezing and coughing from my neighbour that sounded as though it was 2 feet from my head. Gave me quite a fright I can tell you to be woken by an earth shaking sneeze just after I had got to sleep.
That said the breakfast was excellent and extensive and the spar facilities good too.
Clean, comfortable and friendly. It would not take much for it to hit the excellent category across the board.

We stayed here for three nights.Reception on arrival was excellent and friendly.The room was spacious overlooking a children's playground and the all weather tennis courts. The room was spacious with a large double bed,plenty of storage and a refurbished en suite bathroom.This is a very well run hotel,breakfast service was one of the best I've seen anywhere,staff have clearly defined roles and are reallly efficient.The breakfast buffet was plentiful and the cooked food was really tasty. Which is strange because the evening meals weren't.The menu was what you could call international,I think Guernsey was mentioned once on the menu.And that's an issue.You do expect locally sourced food. The menu doesn't change-there is no nightly special.We didn't eat in the main restaurant because it has absolutely no character at all.It must double as a balllrooom as it has its own glitterball.We ate in the bar twice and on the final night we discovered the Renoir cafe.This happened by accident as the bar was full as the hotel was staging a wrestling event. The Renoir is the best public room in the hotel but only seems to open intermittently. There is so much to be positive about but yet the hotel lacks indivduality-it's built for the conference and wedding business mainly so as a couple you feeel you are just a filler in to increase occupancy rates.This was summed up on our last night by a duty manager who asked if we were resident-there is no sense in which you feel that the management wants to get to know you and encourage repeat business. A Guernsey resident summed this hotel up as being tired and some parts are-the leisure pool area is not just tired, it's completely exhausted. The hotel is refurbishing and repainting-the work started in the corridor outside our room at 7.30 am! Overall I wish the hotel well in what it's trying to do to the fabric of the building,I just wish it could try a bit harder to make the indivdual guest feel more valued and make the experience more specifically Guernsey.

Spent five nights at this excellent hotel, one of the best we have ever stayed in. Great room with balcony overlooking lake, sun streaming in during afternoon, very comfy bed, all hotel spotless. Staff all extremely helpful and the admin very efficient. As we arrived a member of staff rushed out with a luggage trolley, another member insisted on helping when we left. Food was good and as we were a party of 21 we chose the the night before and each persons choice was on a card in front of us so not only could we know what we had chosed it was easy for staff to put the right dish down without having to keep shouting out. The breakfasts were magnificent so much choice. We managed a couple of swims in the pool that was at a good temperature and not overwhelmed with chlorine or chemicals, so often found in indoor pools. Thank you to management and staff for this excellent hotel, would be very happy to return and recommend to others

I stayed at st Pierre for three night.I had a very nice room with a balcony over looking the tennis courts. Very comfy bed and a great TV and DVD player. Bathroom was clean and modern. The room did get a bit warm even after turning off the radiator and there was no air con. The food was great. Lots to choose from. Great location as it was only a short bus ride into town. There were only two things that spoiled my trip. First was that my room had no Wifi. I reported this to reception straight away but the only thing they could suggest was that I came down in to the public area to pick it up. This is not very helpful when I had work to do. Second was the very noisy school group that came to stay. I spent the afternoon and 1 night feeling like I was staying in a 18-30's hotel. I know the hotel had no control over the children but may be they should have put all the students in one part of the hotel insted of spreading them out and made sure the teachers supervised them more. The noise and the lanugage as not nice.

Stayed here recently for 4 nights and really enjoyed out visit. Staff were extremely helpful.
Rooms very clean and tidy and even a coffee machine in the room. Lovely hotel. Nice to stay somewhere that serves bacon properly cooked. We will be back...

We stayed for 3 nights over the weekend and found all the staff and facilities excellent. Our room and balcony overlooked the gardens, golf course and ornamental lake. The room was superbly furnished with a large queen size double bed, modern bathroom, HD TV, DVD player, steam iron, tea making facilities and a nespresso coffee machine. We did however find the room very warm and had to turn the radiator off and open the balcony door.
The health spa had a gym, large swimming pool with separate sauna and steam rooms in the men and women changing rooms.
The breakfasts were delicious with a help yourself buffet of fruit, yogurt, cereals, eggs, bacon, sausages etc. The evening meal in Cafe Renoir was also very good. We found all the staff courteous, helpful and efficient. We would not hesitate to return.

Stayed on a short break; biggest plus were the staff who we found friendly, and responded quickly to any request. Bathroom was recently refurbished with a good shower. Room was clean, but rather hot. Turning off the radiator just about rectified this. Wonder what it is like in summer with no air-conditioning? Convenient walk to town, or a bus ride. Breakfast was good, but fruit juice seemed to be of the 'long-life' variety. Not expecting staff to squeeze fresh fruit every morning, but plenty of similar carton based products are superior to long life, and available. Food in restaurant was good, but bar food was uninspiring and on the expensive side for quality. All in all though, would revisit.

stayed here for two nights , as previous posts the Hotel is about a 20 minute walk to the town , The Hotel setting is really nice and has the Golf course in its ground if you fancy 9 holes .
The breakfast and all meals where excellent and portions are very good .
You can catch the Bus into town the stop is right outside the front entrance £1.00 for any journey which is great value , The hotel has Bus time tables in the Lobby
My only gripe was the Hot water yes it is hot but the pressure is very low and the flow is really slow , This seems to apply to any time of day
Will be staying here again

We love visiting Guernsey and this is the second time we have stayed at the St Pierre Park What a gem! The staff were excellent from start to finish. Nothing was too much trouble. The hotel has just had a refurbishment in the reception area and look great. It is located a little way out of town but the buses run every half hour and only cost £1! We had a great time and will certainly be staying here again on our next trip to Guernsey.

Booked a special 4 day spa break last October. Weather was not the best but the hotel more than compensated for that. Excellent service at all levels. Food was lovely and resteraunt staff could not have been more helpful. Breakfast offered everything imaginable, beautiful fresh fruit to smoked haddock(on request) served in a very nice room overlooking the lake.
The bar offered very reasonably priced food and drinks in comfortable surroundings.
Spa offered a small exercise area, steam room, super heated pool and a jacuzzi - what more could we have asked for. Must go again soon.

We had a short 2 night stay here and it suited us just fine! We booked direct with the hotel on their website and got the best deal that way (which is unusual). A brisk walk into St Peter Port took about 20 minutes but we do walk quite fast only £1 on the bus (number 3) drops you just outside the hotel. Great after a long day tax free shopping! The buses are less well timed for the evening but a taxi cost about £8. The hotel staff are very welcoming and the rooms clean and well appointed. Breakfast is buffet style and fine, I had the porridge freshly made for me lovely but an enormous portion which I had to leave to make room for the other lovely stuff! All in all a really nice place and would visit again.

This hotel is a nice quiet place with magnificent facilities of gym and spa and a hairdresser should you want to treat yourself ladies. We had a room with a balcony and I found the hotel to be really intimate and cosy. Staff all round were wonderful and made you feel extremely comfortable. Really enjoyed this hotel as well as the room service we had. Thanks and will visit again.

Generally a well appointed hotel with adequately furnished and equipped room, if on the smallish side, in what seemed to be a spur off the main building. We had a 2nd floor room with a view overlooking a play area (the main lake being to the right hand side by the main bar/bistro).
We spent several evenings sitting out on the terrace of the bistro/bar and enjoyed good quality evening meals there although the range offered was limited. We found the main restaurant expensive and it failed to meet our expectations for quality (so we didnt return there).We were disappointed with the breakfast self-service arrangements and felt that they compared much less favourably in terms of quality to other hotels we had stayed in.
The principal disadvantage we found was that the hotel was situated towards the centre of Guernsey and we had long walks to get anywhere else.
We didnt care much for St. Peter Port as it had the aura of most seaside places and was over used - unsurprisingly of course as its the main centre. We did find the old cliff top military battery nearby interesting and worth a visit.
Decent beaches are on the other side away from the town and the hotel and I was singularly disappointed at the lack of a more rural environment as the place seems to be one of an endless 'ribbon' of buildings along the roadside.
However, I did get the best wholemeal crab sandwich I have had in many a long year in Cobo Bay which rather made it the best thing that happened to me on the island!
It was a peaceful place but I do not think we would stay there again as there must be better places in better locations.

I took my fiancee to St. Pierre Park hotel just for one night as a treat and we had a lovely stay. The room was very nice, massive bed and great views looking over the garden. The staff were very attentive and helpful and we enjoyed the spa facilities. The only downside was the food as we went half board, which is good value for money considering their prices. The starter was very disappointing and they really struggled to cook our spinach for our mains, we had to send it back twice! Many of the tables around us were also complaining about their meals which didn't make for a great atmosohere. The food really lets this beautiful hotel down.

We enjoyed a May Bank holiday on the lovely island of Guernsey. We stayed at the St Pierre Park which overall was very good. Its only real drawback is that it is somewhat outside the centre of St Peter Port, but it has many facilities on site that more than make up for this. The mini-golf, pool and jacuzzi made up for the walk to and from the centre of the capital. We arrived a little early and the receptionist seemed able to cope, even though our rooms were not quite ready. Food in the restaurant promised much but sadly delivered little of that promise and as there are many excellent restaurants in St Peter Port we would suggest trying elsewhere.

Came for a short break without any prior knowledge of the hotel. Excellent service, good facilities. Work being done to update the hotel but they are working very efficiently without too much disruption. Within walking distance of St.Peter Port but it is a good walk!
