Everything you could possibly need for a relaxing stay. The added bonus of a indoor swimming pool and a good golf course made our break even more enjoyable. The service of the staff were excellent and breakfast was superb with so many choices from a full English to a beautiful display of a large selection of fresh fruits.
Our bedroom and bathroom were a good size and not too hot like in some hotels and were well stocked with assorted teas and coffee. The only item that was missing were bath robes. The cleanliness of our room and the hotel were excellent.
Overall, I cannot fault this hotel at all, it was good value for money and would definitely stay again and recommend this hotel to others.

a 20 minute walk from the St Peters Port, this hotel is in nice grounds, gives a relaxing atmosphere and a good standard of accommodation. The lobby may seem a little dated, but the rooms are clean comfortable and of a good four star standard.
The leisure facilities of gym and indoor pool are exceptionally clean, well serviced and free to guests. The rooms and bathroom are likewise spotless and well serviced.
The restaruant and bar are no more expensive than you will find in town yet are much cleaner and quieter !
Final tip for visitors, don't bother with a hire car. the roads are hell on earth, jamed with traffic, use the busses or walk; the latter is often quicker if headed into St Peters Port, from where you can get a bus to any part of the island.

We spent four nights at this hotel over Easter and must say that it deserves its 4 stars. We booked our holiday with ‘Island Getaways’ which included a car from the airport – a good decision as it was quite a walk into St Peter Port from the hotel. We were allocated a room at the back of the hotel where you could hear the noise from the road, so we upgraded for £10 a night to a ‘quiet’, delightful south facing room overlooking park land. The room was well appointed with a large extremely comfortable bed and a selection of pillows. The bathroom looked to be recently renovated – clean, modern and with plenty of space for toiletries. There was also a good selection of teas and coffee, with a tea pot which was a nice touch. Strangely, for a four star, there was no safe for valuables in the room but we were able to use a safety deposit box at the reception. Breakfast and service were excellent. We didn't dine at the hotel (there are some excellent hotels on the island) or use the spa so I am unable to comment on these facilities.
The one BIG downside to the hotel that guest need to be aware of is that St Pierre Park Hotel is one of the most popular hotels on the island as a venue for large events like weddings and diner dances. On the day we arrived, and were upgraded to a ‘quiet’ room, we received a letter from the management informing us of a Dinner Dance taking place on the following night. I quote, ‘Music will be playing in this event and it is possible that noise may carry to the bedrooms within certain areas of the hotel.’ The music was so loud that you could hear every word that the group were singing and we weren't even above the function room. This continued until 00.45am and then sleep was interrupted again 20 minutes later as guests returned to their rooms. I informed reception the next morning that I had no intention of paying the £10 surcharge for that night – this was not disputed. Looking back through TripAdvisor there are periodically comments about this noise, which I had missed when I consulted TripAdvisor before booking.
I can understand why it is such a popular venue for functions but it is also unacceptable to subject guests to such noise. I would definitely recommend this hotel but advise that you check that there are no evening functions booked during your stay.
I would have given this hotel maximum rating if it hadn't been for the noise!

We stayed in room 423. We were right next to a main road and the flimsy patio doors did little to keep the traffic noise out or the heat in. Because the main road is on a hill the traffic was especially noisy, all through the day and night. It was also quite cold in our room as there was one tiny radiator for the whole family sized room. Therefore, I did not sleep well at all. The hot water took about 4 minutes to come through and when I queried this with reception they told me it was because we were the opposite side of the hotel to the water tank. Despite the above the hotel grounds are very pleasant with a lake and water fountain at the rear. The staff were very friendly and the hotel was very clean. The breakfast was superb. I would go back but would ask to stay in a room away from the road.

I stayed at the Hotel last week on a business trip to Guernsey having grown up there and was actually on the Island for the opening of the hotel back in 1983. The Hotel and Staff were top rate. The bedroom was clean, spacious, well appointed, with a comfortable bed and view over the lake. Extremely pleased with the rate I was charged which came in considerably cheaper than a number of other 4/5 star hotels locally. I shall be returning soon.

We booked a package 3-night weekend with Island Getaways and really enjoyed our stay. Luckily, our deal included a small car, for the walk into town was about a mile and a half. Our recently-refurbished room was clean, light, spacious and quiet, with French windows opening onto the garden with lake at the rear. This large 'resort' hotel, obviously can cope with everything. It has several restaurants and a wonderful spa which includes a 25 metre heated swimming pool. Various treatments are available. We found the selection of food excellent and the staff professional and most obliging. It was hard to believe that this hotel was opened as recently as 1984 as it definitely has the atmosphere, solidity and quality normally associated with traditional 'railway hotels' of anything up to a century earlier. A real gem with terrific value.

Why not let Rhianne give you a new hairstyle and help her along her training pathway. 60% reduced rates on Tuesdays and 50% all other times. The Mirage salon is situated on the ground floor of this lovely hotel, linked to the Spa and beauty treatment rooms - all of which are worth a visit. You can also have a round of golf on their 18 hole course while you wait for your partner to have a spa or hair session.

The view out the back of the pond and golf course is lovely. The breakfast buffet has a generous selection of proteins, grains and fruits, and the preparation and presentation was as good as you can ask from a buffet. The staff are friendly and helpful. The staff were professional, competent, and friendly. I felt very welcome there, and well taken care of.

My husband and I stayed at this hotel for 5 days to celebrate my Birthday. We couldn't fault the Hotel at all.The room was spacious, and well furnished, and the bathroom was very nice., and clean with a good shower. The only 'fault' was that the room was very warm! The room was cleaned and towels changed every day. Breakfast was lovely....plenty of choice from cooked full English to a bowl of cornflakes, with pastries and fresh breads and fruit. We didn't dine at the Hotel, but were confused with the restaurant which is in the Hotel, but independent from it?!Nice food and service was good (although we were told at one stage that there was a backlog of orders and we would have to wait....then to be told by another member of staff that it was fine!) The Hotel is in walking distance to the Port at around half an hour......the walk back is mostly uphill though! We were sent a message to inform us of a dinner dance going on and to be aware of the noise, which we weren't looking forward to. In the end we arrived back at the hotel from a meal out at 11.00pm, to find the 'party goers' leaving, so no noise for us. I think people need to be aware that a popular hotel like this will have functions, and to check before they book whether there will be any when they stay.We didn't use the Spa services, but used the pool and the steam room. We found the staff helpful and polite, and pool and jacuzzi we very pleasant. Overall we enjoyed our stay at St Pierre Park, and really enjoyed the trip to Guernsey (and Sark is amazing!!) We would definitely recommend it.
