We have been to Guernsey a number of times but this was our first visit to this hotel. When we arrived we were pleased with our choice. The hotel is in a great position just a few minutes drive out of St Peter Port. The reception area is light and welcoming. We were in room 301 which is on the first floor overlooking the lake. The room was very nice, clean, spacious with a very nice bathroom. There were patio doors with a seating area outside. There is a lovely Spa with pool, jacuzzi, steam room and sauna. All facilities are free to hotel guests and robes and towels are provided. We both had extra charged treamtents in the Spa which were lovely. Buffet breakfast was included and has everything you could want and more! The only dissapointment was that when we entered our room on the first day there was a letter under the door saying there was a function that evening going on until 12.45 and some rooms may hear a slight noise. This didn't seem too worrying until we returned from our swim at 4.30pm on the first day. A band were obviously rehearsing for the evening and it was almost as if they were in the room with us! You could hear loud and clear every word of what they said on the microphone and the music was deafening. The "slight noise" mentioned in the hotel letter was an understatement to say the least. After an hour we complained to reception who weren't particularly helpful and said the hotel was full so they couldn't move us. We went out for dinner and didn't return until 11.30pm when the party was in full swing and in our room it was just as if we were downstairs in the function room! The noise continued until 12.45.
Thank goodness there was no function the second evening and we had a peaceful nights sleep! Don't be put off as the hotel is excellent just ensure that if there's a function on your not on the first floor above the function room if you want to sleep!

don't stay in room 355, it has a connecting door with room 357, the occupant of 357, came into his room at about midnight, promptly slamming all doors, sliding wardrobe doors and dressing table drawers, on doing so the connecting door rattled loudly, he then used his phone to order a sandwich, and it was so clear that we heard that he had to make do with a cheese sandwich. He then put the television on and decided to watch sky news, he then turned over the channels until he found a film on BBC1, his sandwich was delivered and again door slammed and connecting door rattled, we asked him to turn down the television, but he did not here us it was that loud, we tried ringing his phone but he did not answer it, by this time it was 0130hrs so we called the duty manager to assist us, he told us that if he had left his curtains open we could get our remote control, stand on our balcony and use it to turn off his television, this did not work, in the end the manager used his pass key, entered the room and turned off his television with our control, the man by this time was fast asleep worse for alcohol and snoring loudly oblivious to what we had had to endure, but had it have been any other room without a connecting door then it would not have happened as all the noise was coming through there and not the walls.worse than a hollywood script.

Having read several reviews commenting on the noise of the band if there is a function on I was slightly nervous when a warning letter arrived in our room. I really think that they should do something about this- I don't wish to be a kill joy but the noise was dreadful, there was no way that we could sleep until the music stopped. So be warned - don't book this hotel at the weekend unless you are invited to the party!!

Myself, my mother and my 97yr old grandmother travelled to Guernsey for an early mothers day treat. The hotel was perfect for us. We booked a room with a lakeside view. Although you couldn't see the lake from inside the room, there was a large terrace outside our room where you could sit which looked out over the lake. Our chambermaid was excellent and promptly responded to every request and our room was always very clean. The pool and facilities such as jacuzzi, sauna and steam room were excellent, we used them daily.We also liked that there was a wet and dry changing room and a relaxation room with daily papers and tea and coffee making facilities. The breakfast was great and there was a lot of choice- a huge fresh fruit platter, porridge to order or a traditional fried breakfast buffet and our breakfast waiter was very attentive. It is also well situated for access to St Peter's Port.

The completely refurbished hotel impressed me with a nice and quite large bedroom, a very modern and spacious bathroom as well as with an excellent breakfast buffet. An indoor swimming pool - not just a "pond" - invited for real swimming. The atmosphere in the hotel and the service were nice and welcoming.

Most travellers will be familiar with the hot and stuffy hotel room - and hopefully there will be aircon or windows to achieve the required balance. Sadly not so at the St Pierre, where the only option is to open a sliding door onto an all too accessible flat roof; built some 30 years ago, it is time this hotel reviewed its room ventilation - if it was stuffy and too hot in April, heaven help those staying in August !
There is evidence of a general lack of awareness from management as to overall standards: the view from the Fountain balcony and restaurant is despoiled by dead or dying shrubs festooned with brambles; towel robes are only available at the pool changing facilities, so would-be swimmers cannot dress/undress in one's room, but have to do so in the communal changing rooms; Dinner in the Renoir restaurant is well cooked and presented, but costly and insubstantial; bar prices are similarly inflated.
In sum, an adequate Hotel for a short break, but could do better !

We were visiting my mother who lives on the island, and decided to try this hotel, as we have driven by on a number of visits. I have to say that we were certainly not disappointed, although the hotel was fully booked the weekend we arrived, as it was Liberation Day on the 9th. The rooms are spacious and well appointed, with sockets in convenient places, one of our main complaints in many hotels!
The pool nas spa complex is second to none, and the staff are so helpful throughout the hotel.
When we surfaced for breakfast on the first morning, we were absolutely astounded at the choice, form cereals, fresh fruit, hams, cheeses, and the wonderful cooked selection.
My husband was thrilled to find he could get his favourite kippers, or smoked haddock (albeit there was a small supplement), and these were freshly cooked to order. I had poached eggs one morning, again cooked to order and absolutely perfect.
We will certainly be visiting this wonderful hotel again, and the prices are not that more expensive than some of the lower rated places.

Perfect for business trips. Tidy room, pleasant staff. Decent car park. A little bit far from town centre but close enough. Not bad at all

The hotel is situated in beautiful grounds with excellent amenities - indoor swimming pool, sauna, stam room, jacuzzi, a small gym.
The staff were unfailingly polite and helpful. The rooms were very comfortable and clean.
The breakfast buffet was just too tempting, catering for every taste.
We ate twice in the Renoir restuarant - the food was of a very high standard and the staff there were particularly skilled and attentive in non intrusive way.
The service in the main bar was a bit 'iffy' at times which is probably the only criticism I could make.
The hotel itself is situated about a mile from the town centre, so not far to walk. Ther is plently parking space at the hotel, and a Waitrose just across the road to fill that helpful room fridge!!
