We have stayed here many times before, we have always found it to be pleasant if slightly dated.
It has now changed hands, and although the staff ethos, of always going out of their way to be helpful, and cheerful (Even to the extent of finding a small handkerchief that had been gathered up with the breakfast table napkins, and returning it washed and laundered) remains,the changes are impressive.
The hotel is in the midst of a transformation, from a pleasant but tired old duck into a glorious swan, the rooms are being refurbished, and now have ironing boards instead of trouser presses,
good size bathrobes in all rooms, plus bottled water.
I can't wait to return next year, to view all of the proposed upgrades to the rooms, at which point I will be only too pleased to change my overall rating from very good, to superb.

I must speak very highly of this hotel. The bedroom looked as though it had been freshly decorated, the bed was the most comfortable that I have experienced in a hotel. The staff were extremely helpful and ensured our stay was a memorable chapter of our lives. The breakfast was excellently cooked, we went for the variety of cereals , whole grain flakes and milk. Followed by the full English from the buffet: other options were available to order. We were informed by a letter under the door of any functions that were happening on the Friday evening, and even though there were four functions we did not hear anything . We ate in the terrace bar on four occasions and were served well. We did not use the restaurant in the evening, but noted the menu would have made us happy. There is ample parking space, a walked marked out around the golf course, corridor carpets where excellent, clean and springy. We are likely to return.

Dina the manager, and her team at the St Pierre Park make our celebrity Cricket weekend run so effortlessly. We had wrong suitcase, no suitcases, so many dramas but Dina just takes it all in her stride and things are resolved without question, promptly and with pleasure. The team look after us all so very well. It is a spectacular weekend where we raise money for Lord Taverners and with over 300 people that is no easy task. Given so much work goes into organising, seamless execution of all the events and the thought and service we receive over the weekend from the team just makes it one of the social must do's of the year. THANK YOU ONE AND ALL>

This was my second visit and it was even better than my first!
The atmosphere, the staff and the food were excellent. The staff were so tentative, nothing was too much trouble.
Special mention must go to the General Manager, Dina Le Lacheur who seemed to be on duty day and night and still managed to look elegant and be calm! We were at the hotel for an important charity event and she made sure that everything went to plan. She greeted our party when we arrived, made sure all our transport needs were met, oversaw our dinners etc and because the breakfast service was so busy, she was seen serving tables, I was impressed!
Location of the hotel is great, the grounds are beautiful with an impressive lake full of wildlife. There is a golf course too but sadly we had no time for golf!
Accommodation was good, very clean and met our needs.
I look forward to going back again one day!

Had a few days here.Staff excellent.Look out for concierge from Kirremuir.He is a credit to company.Manageress very picky who she speaks to.My toilet had difficulty in flushing.You will never find the lockers in the pool area.All staff very good.Careful at breakfast as if you order something from the kitchen menu it takes a long time to come,unlike the toast which is whizzed at great speed (but cold ).There is also a butter shortage.Internet problems during my visit.Lovely grounds and good food in bar.

It's not often we find a hotel that ticks all the boxes but St Pierre Park was as close as we've ever been. We booked a 3 night stay here at the beginning of June as part of a 2-island holiday incorporating Jersey for a further 4 nights. Unfortunately our stay in Guernsey was reduced to only 2 nights because the ferry from Poole was cancelled on our scheduled departure date due to bad weather - what a shame! The hotel is located in a beautiful spot - a 9-hole par 3 golf course, gardens and a large lake all feature in the grounds. The place is easy to find and there's plenty of car parking space on site. We were fortunate to be upgraded to a room with a balcony/terrace overlooking the lake. The room itself could not be faulted in any way - restful colour-scheme, very spacious, plenty of wardrobe space, safety box, a fridge (which we had requested in advance) and a fast wifi connection. We used the terrace restaurant on the first evening where we found a wide choice on the menu (perhaps a little over-priced wine list) and very friendly, helpful staff. The buffet breakfast on both mornings was a real treat with a wide range of choices for all tastes and diets. The front desk staff were particularly helpful regarding advice on car-parking regulations on the island and we were very grateful for that. It will be to our eternal regret that we lost a night's stay at this lovely hotel as it's unlikely we shall ever get the opportunity to visit Guernsey again. We would have no hesitation in recommending the St Pierre Park Hotel to anyone looking for a few days in restful surroundings with easy access to St Peter Port and other parts of the island.

Stayed for two nights. Do a lot of travelling for business and the beds here are without doubt one of the most comfortable I've ever slept in - needless to say I had a great nights sleep here!
Staff were great - friendly, welcoming, with a good sense of humour and not overly intrusive - just the right balance between entertaining their guests and tending to their respective duties which I really appreciated.
Food - was surprised by the variety on the menu, they offer a very good range of meals. No complaints whatsoever from our table - clean plates all round and from what I could see this seemed to be the norm on the other tables as well - everything was very well presented.
The only 'thing' that let the place down a little from my perspective was the decor which I thought was a wee bit outdated as the location and grounds offer a lot of potential. However, I am confident that anyone visiting this hotel, for business or pleasure, will not be disappointed - well worth staying at if visiting Guernsey.

I would class this hotel as traditional refined. I stayed here on business about 15 years ago and apart from updating the traditional decor it hasn't changed a great deal
The food in the bar was ok for bar food, we ate there a couple of times whilst working, as I said it was ok I wouldn't rush back nor look for anything else. Reasonably good selection on the menu.
Rooms are large and roomy but in the summer suffer from lack of air conditioning. Bathrooms are large again and traditional modern, decent beds which make with the high quality pillows for a good nights sleep
I always ask myself would I go back, I would say yes.

We booked an Expedia special offer that included flights from Southampton plus 2 nights and 3 days at OGH. Went October 1st to 3rd. Our first visit to Guernsey and we had no particular expectations and just went to enjoy ourselves. The hotel was lovely, very clean, friendly helpful staff and excellent breakfasts. Our room (209) was very comfortable and beautifully decorated with a very nice bathroom. The public rooms were gracious and it was a pleasure to sit in the various rooms and on the terrace to enjoy the ambiance. Great central location and altogether a very positive experience. Highlight of our trip was walking around Herm in lovely sunny weather.
