This is an established grand hotel with historic flair. However, be warned that it is not a five star hotel by any reasonable international standard. The rooms, restaurant and common areas in particular are in desperate need of some refurbishment and modernisation. The pricetag is mainly warranted by the fact that there is little competition on the island. That being said, the staff were all outstandingly helpful and polite, and the overall experience we had was a pleasant one.

Amazing place to stay. Lovely clean and comfy rooms. Really friendly staff. The food served is always to a very high standard. It's a 30 second walk away from town, which is great! Out of all the hotel's I have stayed in on Guernsey this is definitely my favourite. I highly recommend it. The pool is lovely too, but often full of screaming children in the summer time!

It's probably not quite a five-star hotel. The environment needs some TLC in places ( some cash investment!!)
However, the staff in all areas, are definitely five-star. Many thanks for everything. The food and the lounges and bars are very good. The situation of the hotel is superb, and the prices charged for both food and drink, is good. All in all, a lovely hotel, which is a credit to the beautiful island of Guernsey

Very traditional, yet upscale hotel.
I stayed over lunch, enjoying a bar snack.
Good wine and champagne selection, they even have vegan lunch options, which were delicious.
Staff was extremely attentive, the entire place very clean.

First visit to this hotel and Guernsey. Amazing staff throughout as nothing is too much trouble.
We had booked this as an offer via a TA which included a meal in the Brasserie & one in The Governor's curry room. The meals were OK. At no point were we made aware that there was a limit to the cost of our meal deal in the Brasserie. It was only when I queried the bill that I was told if it was above £30 per person then had to pay the difference!
At breakfast, hubby ordered cooked food and on each occasion it was just warm. One morning, he sent it back twice as they brought the wrong order and when it was right, it wasn't hot enough. The few times I had a cooked breakfast it was OK but the omelette was steaming!
Based on our experience, would definitely question the 5* rating as the food lets it down.

6 days is good for getting round Guernsey, a car is a good idea and costs little more than parking at Poole Port. Excellent curry room in hotel, which is a short walk from the quay and high street.

We had a lovely reception on arrival and during our stay Alessandro and Tsya were exceptionally attentive. The food was delicious. The bedroom overlooked a noisy air vent, lacked a fridge, shower cap , poor very small out of date shower with no hand rail and very little room to negotiate the wardrobe without knocking your feet!

Best hotel on the island in my opinion. Been here for events, gym and to stay the night I couldn't fault them. Rooms could use a bit of tlc and upgrading but otherwise an incredible spot.
