Amazing food. So much carefully selected local produce. Family owned and run so the service was very attentive.

Upon arrival at the hotel we were greeted by Beth who was so upbeat, happy & knowledgeable of the area, she is a fantastic person to be on front desk as the 1st person we met left a great impression. We went to our room and were overawed...the size, the comfort, the little touches were just amazing. I went in the pool that evening & enjoyed lounging in the room.
Following morning we went to breakfast...again WOW...an amazing spread if every continental item you could require all set out beautifully, the staff were very attentive, happy, smart & professional, the food was to die for & we were spoilt for choice!! As we left restaurant/hotel we were wished a good day by all staff.
On arrival back last night again staff were lovely...it was Nellie on front desk this time, very pleased to see us & interested in our day, another swim was had & loved time in our room which was beautifully clean with every amenity we need (especially plug sockets by both beds which is great as we have CPAP machines).
Another Breakfast was again outstanding, all beautifully set out & staff wonderful.
On arrival back this afternoon Nellie & Emma greeted us & helped with all our queries re: luggage labels, taxis & Sark ferry...they were extremely helpful, lovely & very personable.
We had a lovely relaxed evening as we'd walked miles
This morning we were sad to be leaving & after another great breakfast with amazing service we were bid farewell by all staff.
Highly Recommend this hotel

Nicki is so friendly & helpful I would definitely recommend her to my friends & family. She really goes above & beyond to make sure the holiday is enjoyed by all. My holiday was a 3-centre holiday which isn’t the easiest to organise but Nicki ensured it all went smoothly.

In July 2022, Mr David said about Duke of Richmond Hotel
Had a very good stay overall, room very decent and clean when I checked in wasn’t serviced properly, food over priced not value for money, I had the fish and chips one night horrible no flavour just a bone dry fish and the same with the curry the following night had to asked for pepper and Tabasco sauce just to have something to taste the rice was still hard couldn’t really be bothered to complain as I was only offered dessert but still expected to pay, not all bad in the restaurant, friends in guernsey spoke high of the bar the first night the lady introduced herself as the bar manager but didn’t know what a simple Singapore sling was and guy the following night (who did breakfast) knew and it was very good, so kinda saved my experience really good with all the new staff from South Africa, but my overall impression was a kitchen in a mess and a front of house been lead by true leadership. Paul was amazing with great smile and attitude, and everyone and everything was so effortless for him

Stayed here for a few days and had a brilliant experience.
The staff were fantastic, and the food excellent particularly the breakfasts although evening menu was repetitive
The room was just what we expected and was spotless but could do with some updating.
The only thing that lets the hotel down is its position at the top of a very steep hill.
This wouldn’t be so bad but there is no bus stop near by and taxis are a rare commodity on Guernsey
I think the hotel would be more popular if they ran a courtesy bus up and down to town a couple of times a day
Be warned if you are not very mobile stay down in town

From the booking to arriving and staying in this hotel the reception staff were amazing. A brilliant and efficient team always there to welcome you, answer questions and assist where needed. They always had a smile of their faces and generally interested in you and your day. Big thank you to them all!!
The room had everything we needed and was comfortable. I have to say we had no issues with noise and the air-con was great. The room was not always stocked up daily and one day our clean towels were just thrown on a chair. But otherwise ok. When we first checked into the room I did find the decor a little overwhelming but I did get used to it.
The pool area was small but nice. The pool was heated to a lovely temperature which was a lovely treat.
The big downside was breakfast. I must say that all the staff were lovely but the organisation was awful. On a few occasions I had finished my cooked breakfast before my drinks arrived. Twice to be told they were on the way but then told they had been forgotten. A couple of times my crumpets were solid and I could not even cut them. Food it very hit and miss. I could understand if they were short of staff but there were so many members of staff wandering around I really don’t understand why it takes so long to get drinks.
All in all a good stay but I do feel that I am leaving this place happy due to the amazing team on reception. Keep up the good work.
