Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is right on the front of St Helier, offering clean and comfortable rooms with a great breakfast overlooking the beach. The service is very helpful and attentive, and the location is handy for beach walks and exploring the town. The dining experience is of a better standard than expected, but not consistent in portion sizes. The drinks at the bar are a bit pricey compared to nearby options across the road.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location was good near the beach, but the noise from a pub made it hard to sleep. The room was comfortable and clean, but lacking some expected amenities. The service was generally good, but breakfast could be more refined.
The hotel is ideally located right on the seafront in St Helier, making it convenient for exploring the town and enjoying the beach views. The rooms, while providing basic amenities like a TV and tea/coffee facilities, are in urgent need of renovation. The breakfast offered is outstanding, but the high prices at the bar may discourage guests from spending evenings there despite entertainment. Overall, a place with great potential that could use some improvements to match its fantastic location.
