Wow, what a brilliantly friendly team they have here. We were over from Cornwall as part of the IoD Guernsey conference, and we were lucky enough to be put up here. The staff were probably the friendliest and most helpful anyone could be. Genuine, engaging alongside a great location for us to get to the conference alongside exploring. Thanks so much I will be back.

Situated about a 15 minute walk,uphill,from the resort "front",this hotel seemed to be stuck in the middle of the 1930/40's with its decor and demeanor!
Our room was fine,yet it seemed "dated"with a fabric wallpaper,mirrored drawers on furniture,just seemed as if we were on a film set,but that was our feeling!Bathroom was large and well equipped.
Must mention that service and cleaning was good,although you never knew at what time of day you would get seen to,one day whilst at breakfast,the next late afternoon,then lunchtime the day after that!
The hotel boasts an enclosed private swimming pool(towels provided) sun loungers and several terraces.
Reception staff were brilliant,especially Bellen and Beth,whatever you needed,24 hrs a day,just ring down whether it was just for a jug of fresh milk for a cup of tea,book a taxi or another pillow
Meals in the restaurant,well breakfast was brilliant,again,we were on the bed and breakfast option(don't do half board) during our stay,choices were numerous,cold things like cereals,fruit,croissants,cold meats and juices,you just helped yourself,cooked breakfasts,just tell your server what you wanted,bacon,sausages,hash browns,black pudding,beans,tomatoes, mushrooms and however you wanted an egg,think you'll get the picture!
Different story at dinner,we didn't think the choices were that numerous,plus we thought the prices a little bit too expensive for the options,we,my wife and I had basically what was burger and chips one evening,with "trimmings",2 beers for me,1 for my wife sixty odd pounds(a double figure percentage "tip"is added to your bill automatically! Went out to eat the rest of week!

Lovely food, ambience and staff. Would score it a 10:10, would definitely recommend visiting for a special occasion. The home made scones with jam and clotted cream were a favourite as well as the vast selection of teas.

We’ve been to the Bass & Lobster quite a few times now, the food and service are consistently 10/10. This time I took my Mum and my 87 year old Grandma for lunch while they were over visiting from the UK, as always they smashed it out of the park. My Grandma had fish and chips, made with plaice, paprika chips, homemade chip shop curry sauce, homemade tarter sauce, she said it was the best fish and chips she’s ever had - the fish was so fresh it tasted like it was straight out of the sea! Little things like warm homemade bread to start and handmade truffle chocolates to finish just add that extra special touch. Most of the veggies and herbs are fresh from their own garden and we love the fact that they use Jersey produce. The service is always warm, friendly, literally can’t do enough for you. Keep doing what your doing guys!

Just had a superb lunch at The Bass And Lobster restaurant in Jersey. Service was delightful, extra touches amuse bouche, bread with dip,olives and humus were delightful, all this before our beautiful meal was served with lovely tasty dips, sauces and pleasant interval between courses. Thoroughly recommend.

Had dinner here last night, at the start of their Feast in the East 2.0 menu season, accompanied by my partner and her Mum, and it was brilliant. The service is fantastic throughout, and the food is beautiful. We had lobster croquettes to start and they were super tasty. I had an epic burger for my main, with other people in our party having catches of the day (plaice and skate). We all enjoyed our dishes, and even things like paprika chips are different and tasty, and my partner said the tartar sauce was the best she'd ever had. We had the pumpkin tart to finish, which was lovely, but the star of the dessert for me was the roasted pecan ice cream. So good! Looking forward to eating here again, as everything is fantastic from start to finish. Thanks very much to the Bass and Lobster :-)

We had a double room which was really lovely and a great ensuite. This is such a great hotel because as well as being so centrally located and within walking distance of most of St Peter Port the staff are amazing and nothing is too much trouble for them. Been a while since we have been here due to Covid but will be back again.
