We spent a very enjoyable week here in this pleasant hotel on such a lovely island. The staff are first-rate. So friendly, helpful, obliging and yet professional. Jake on reception is particularly good and has an extensive knowledge of the island as well as hotels in the Hand-Picked Hotels group. We were not 100% happy with our room so were moved to a more suitable one as soon as convenient. Can't fault that!
It is true to say, as some reviewers already have, that some areas need refurbishing, but the hotel is aware of this and work is in progress. The grounds are lovely, the breakfast food is satisfactory and substantial, especially the home-made pastries which were excellent. I don't eat pork so breakfast can be limited in many hotels, but not here - plenty of choice and all very good quality. We also enjoyed the 'all-you-can-shovel-down-you' Sunday lunch which is very good value and the beef and turkey were both perfectly cooked. We did try the Victor Hugo restaurant a couple of times. The first evening there as it was convenient and again later; but frankly there are so many fabulous places to eat on Guernsey that this is a bit of an also-ran. (See my restaurant reviews for more info). Whilst it has good food on offer it really is more for convenience rather than a special occasion.
The hotel is probably one of the best on the island and we would certainly choose to stay there again.

In June 2015, RUTH B said about St Pierre Park Hotel
We spent five enjoyable days staying in the St. Pierre Park hotel, St. Peter Port, Guernsey. The location is uphill outside the town, a 20 minute walk, or a bus stop outside the hotel into the town centre. Although we had our own car, it is not advisable to drive into the centre of town as it is not possible to park. The restaurant is very comfortable with good food, but very slow service. The gardens are beautiful with a lovely lake, tennis courts and relaxing walks around the grounds. The spa has a spacious indoor swimming pool, jacuzzi, lounges, robes and slippers. Artistic statues surrounding the pool.
The staff are very welcoming, reception helpful, and a courtesy coach took us to the airport to fly to Alderney for the day.

A recent stay on business and overall a very pleasant experience at a very conveniently located hotel close to the island capital.
The good: Warm welcome. Breakfast are excellent with perfect service, worthy of a hotel of this size. No complaints about the cleanliness of the premises and rooms. Beautiful grounds, and facilities such as the swimming pool and jacuzzi. A gym is also available.
Downside: None
Conclusion: a very nice hotel to stay in Guernsey; would recommend.

In September 2015, B J H said about St Pierre Park Hotel
The positives of this hotel are the grounds and the spa which are truly delightful. The location is fine, being a comfortable walk into town and well placed for buses around the Island. Less pleasing aspects relate to sleep quality and a health and safety issue. The first room allocated was 328 which appeared to be ideal. It was clean, bright, fairly spacious and had beautiful views of the lake. The downside was what initially seemed to be a rather noisy extractor fan linked to the bathroom but ignored as they usually only run for a few minutes. Only later on returning to the room did it become obvious that the engine noise was still running and appeared to be even louder. It was not from the bathroom but from a room next door. The reception staff were notified and explained that it was the exractor from the bar downstairs and would switch off at midnight., it did not and actually continued ALL night. As the headboard was attached to the adjoining wall, the noise and the vibration resulted in no sleep at all. Early next morning I spoke to the duty manager who said she would try to find another 'quieter' room. We repackaged all are belongings, went out for the morning and returned to find our cases in a top floor room overlooking the gardens. Pleasant enough but certainly tired and in need of a deep clean. Spent the whole afternoon catching up on lost sleep and not exploring the Island as planned. When getting ready for the evening meal I sat at the desk to put makeup on and the chair collapsed. As a rather petite 5'2" lady this was, to say the least, a rather unique shock. On further inspection it was found that the chair had been glued together on a previous occasion and should really have been condemned. Someone older or larger than myself could have incurred quite a serious injury rather than jus a shock. Again reception were informed and they said maintaince would be advised and a replacement chair would be provided. When checking out two days later this had still not happened.

We stayed for 5 nights, two student sons and me and my partner. The hotel is recently refurbished and they have done a first class job.
Furnishings and decor in public areas are tasteful. The gym, pool and fitness suite are all fabulous. Outside are lovely tennis courts, grounds and a quirky (in a good way) 9 hole golf course.
Our rooms were "executive" standard. And as a former executive I was happy. The staff (apart from a wobble when overwhelmed at breakfast one day) were all great. Really smart and all dedicated to great service....and hardly a Brit to be seen in their ranks.
Negatives? Well yes...sadly the food offer at the hotel goes nowhere near matching the hotel per se. Service slow. Food poor, even the easy stuff, and generally a weak aspect of the hotel that they really need to address. Watch a few Ramsey programmes and adopt his advice for an easy fix.
But dont be put off. The hotel is great and Guernsey really delivered!!

Our rooms were large with good toiletries comfy bed plenty of pillows and large towels. Most of all the staff were wonderful especially the Romanian guy in charge in the restaurant. So helpful and polite but all the staff were the same, nothing too much trouble and they always seemed to working from early to late and smiling! The Management should commend them all. We had a great time and the catering was also excellent.

Very warm and welcoming, the wet facilities were very good and were modern. Our room was very clean and was nicely decorated. Breakfast was extremely nice. When we ordered breakfast to our room it was 25 minutes late and one piece food was missing. But they did apologise which we thought was very kind. They informed us on tourist attractions around the island. Overall it was a good stay.

In August 2017, Marie M said about St Pierre Park Hotel
Although this hotel is a fair distance from the town, the buses (great value at £1 per trip) pass every few minutes. The staff here are marvellous, very helpful and pleasant. Rooms pristine, really comfy beds (we slept like logs) plenty of pillows and a spotless bathroom with fluffy towels. Patio style doors onto your own balcony mean that even if your room is a bit too warm you can have fresh air. Only small downside was we were woken by extractor fans in the mornings (probably unavoidable) and once by staff in the office next door. Breakfast choice very good, large hot and cold buffet to choose from, loved the eggs florentine. Four star for good reason.

My partner and I treated ourselves to a night at St Pierre Park having read lots of good reviews.
We went for a suite and were thoroughly impressed by the room and it’s balcony/ garden - in particular the jacuzzi was an added bonus.
The room was spotless and we really couldn’t find any faults. Staff were also very attentive and the food was great.
We are already looking forward to our next visit.

Came over to Guernsey to watch some rugby . Hotel was first class- excellent service throughout- friendly and helpful at reception and concierge. Spa was great and had a most enjoyable treatment. Went swimming every morning- great facilities. Garden view Room was spacious and comfortable.
Were invited to staff dinner on Sunday night which was great fun. Interesting to hear about all the different departments which make this hotel so successful and great to share the occasion with all the staff
