Another great stay here last weekend. The staff and the food are excellent. Cannot fault this place and always get service as nothing is too much trouble. Angela on reception 'stood out' from the rest and was extremely helpful and charming. Will deffo be back next year.

Stayed for four nights September 2014 with my husband and two friends. It was a very pleasant hotel. The rooms were large and the super king bed was extremely comfortable. Large balcony. Good tea/coffee making facilities. Bottles of drinking water were supplied and replenished without charge. Bathroom was large with plenty of toiletries and clean fluffy towels. Made use of the swimming pool, sauna and steam room. No complaints at all. Towels and bathrobes were always available. The location was good. Buses to St Peter Port pass by regularly and more or less on time and there is a flat fare of £1,anywhere on the island. The staff were always friendly and helpful. Can't comment on the restaurants as we didn't eat at the hotel. Breakfast, however, was excellent with lots of choice at the buffet and items you could order from the menu. The drinks in the bar were very expensive so we didn't linger too long. However,when we did have a pre dinner drink or a nightcap light snacks (olives, wasabi nuts, peanuts) were always supplied. Overall if you are going to Guernsey and want a good hotel in a good location you won't go far wrong with this one. There are so many restaurants to choose from outside the hotel that it isn't really an issue.

We enjoyed our stay in this lovely hotel, with its pretty garden and lake. Very good welcoming at the reception, and the room was clean and pleasant, provided with good quality of coffees and teas. The breakfast was great, the food excellent and served by a very pleasant and efficient personnel. Would return with great pleasure!

I have stayed here several times and I would endorse the comments made by the reviewer in February who complained of the mobile phone mast EXCEPT for the comments on the mast.
I stayed there in 2013 and haven't made a review but felt compelled to do so because the February review was grossly unfair on that one point.
The comment about the phone mast was misleading if not a bit 'chicken licken' . The emissions from the mast according to Guernsey Regulator surveys are between 3,000 and 11,000 times lower than EU recommended minima. In other words you'd get more radiation using your own phone.
So with such as silly comment can we rely on the rest of the review?
In my experience the hotel food was poor, at times the services is indifferent and the hotel is not as near the centre of town as it presents itself. However its grounds are pleasant, the hotel is clean, and facilities are good- Except for peak times it represents good value. It was wonderfully quiet the last time I stayed and I rather liked it.But as the other reviewer pointed out it caters for business/inclusive tours/airlines and can suddenly fill up, as happened on a previous trip, which leads to queues at front desk and a busy bar and restaurant. In my previous experience service in the bar and restaurant did not suffer but front desk struggled to cope.

We stayed here for 3 days at the beginning of September.
The staff were very helpful and friendly. It was clean and the grounds were very attractive. A great breakfast spread and the beds were very comfortable.
On the down side the walls were paper thin so it was quite noisy. Don't know if it was just our room but furnitture looked as if it was in real need of an upgrade. No air con in our room so baffled why they had a 10 tog duvet on. It was far too stuffy to sleep really well. Did eat in te restaurant one night. It was ok but nothing special. This is a complaint about all hotels but why charge so much in hotel bars? Would have had more drinks there as lovely view over the lake but far too pricey.
About 25 minute walk into town but new that when booking. Overall it was ok but not sure I would say merited it's 4 star grade.

Very good hotel, excellent facilities in a lovely setting. Various eating options, comfortable bedrooms and public rooms. Conveniently situated for St. Peter Port and touring. Professional and amenable staff. A really very enjoyable experience.

We had a comfortable 3 night stay. We had two rooms a double and a twin for our sons.
The rooms were a good size and the beds large and comfortable, everything worked and the bathroom was clean and functional. Some of the public areas are a little tired. The staff were excellent, professional and service orientated.
It's a pity the wifi was not better, very poor signal on the fourth floor, i would expect better coverage in a hotel that caters for conferences. How much would that cost in the scheme of things to remedy ?
We did not eat in the hotel apart from breakfast which was a buffet with a good choice. It's a pity that hotel restaurants always seem to charge a premium for lunch or dinner and when there is so much choice locally I would expect it to up the ante. Usually they are busy with functions and I suppose that brings in the money which i would say this hotel caters well for.

After an error on the room allocation the porter dealt with it swiftly and ensured a suitable room was allocated. The new room had a beautiful view of the rear of the property and was very comfortably furnished, even having an Nespresso machine, so I believe we may have received an upgrade. I didn't expect the rooms in this hotel to be so warm in early September, upon check-out I did hear other guests on reception being offered fans so if I had raised this then I am sure I would have been offered the same.

4th visit here, arrived 4 September and didn't want to leave. Still as good since Hand Picked Hotels took over. Breakfast had even more choices. Concierges excellent, even when I locked our key in the room! Looking forward already to our 2015 visit
