Top 10 Saint Peter Hotels

The Atlantic Hotel is absolutely a first class property, worthy of its excellent reputation. I had a great stay at the hotel, including through Storm Ciarán. First and foremost, the staff at The Atlantic are really excellent. I can't think of a hotel I've stayed at where the staff have been so consistently hospitable, warm and personable. Several deserve to be mentioned by name. Nathan is the wonderful concierge - he is warm, eager to assist guests and genuinely interested to give great hints and tips and ensure each guest has a great stay. Equally Sherman the restaurant manager was a credit to the hotel. He greeted me by name each time I saw him and demonstrated the highest levels of professionalism, care and genuine warmth. I hope he's still there next time I return! Equally Gregg in the restaurant, Alex, the assistant sommelier, Patrick, Rui, the front desk team - all were great. It's a real credit to the hotel's leadership that they are attracting, training and retaining such excellent staff. That really shown through in the aftermath of Storm Ciarán. I knew that the staff were committed to taking care of us, ensuring the safety and comfort of guests. The hotel itself is a true classic. It's not the most contemporary - nor should it be. It has personality, warmth and is genuinely comfortable. Cleanliness is excellent and maintenance is good. Some areas perhaps are in need of an update, but nothing critical. I liked that the hotel didn't feel forced or that it was trying to be something it's not. I think the building itself has an elegance and presence. I really enjoyed my room. I would DEFINITELY recommend the sea-view. I hesitated and shouldn't have. It makes a huge difference. The view is exceptional and I loved the little Juliette balcony. The furniture is mixed, but thoughtfully so. The beds great and a delight to stay in a hotel that doesn't have a hugely over-heavy duvet. The indoor pool was pleasant and I appreciated the sauna too. Breakfast at the hotel is again first class. I definitely enjoy having hot food prepared to order. Plus a good quality, well curated buffet too. Food in the hotel generally is very good quality, but perhaps a little over complex. I counted five available menus for evening meal across the restaurant and bar / lounge. It's nice to have choice and variety - but that felt a little much. A small point, but amidst the five menus - the dessert options were limited and just not quite right. The small choice were all fine dining style - and just a little fussy. It's great to have a couple of innovative options but the menu was missing options that were perhaps just more classic and accessible. I think the pastry chef could perhaps also add to the afternoon menu some fresh cakes or home made biscuits to accompany a cup of tea in the afternoon. I also think that the music in the lobby and restaurant must drive the staff slightly crazy! A little variety would be good. Thos

We had a garden room, which was very well appointed and spacious. Unfortunately it was very hot, even with the ceiling fan on at night and the cleaning was very hit-or-miss. In the lounge the dreadful, inane, music playing on a loop was very, very, annoying, but the cocktails were very good. The restaurant menu was the same every night and very expensive for what was available - I had steak on two evenings, one was excellent, the other was just about 'okay'. The service could be very slow too. But we had a brilliant meal with my friend at her hotel - and it was not as expensive either. It was an expensive holiday, and should have been much better. We won't be going back. Next year we'll be staying in the same hotel my friend.

Would we visit again? Unequivocally, yes. The hillside location affords spectacular views across St Aubin’s Bay; however, unless you have your own means of transport, once you get there, options to venture out are very limited. There is a steep flight of steps that lead to the main road, but there are few amenities in the immediate vicinity. We were greeted by very friendly front of house staff. Access to the rooms was reminiscent of the gangways on a cruise ship and the room balconies too. However, the south-westerly facing rooms got very hot and stuffy and that was at only 23C! Cannot imagine how 35C would have been. We noticed that so many bedroom doors were wedged open with a variety of items (trainers) to allow a through-draft. Summers are only going to get warmer. We were disappointed with the Indigo Restaurant, of which we were expecting great things - particularly given that you have to make a reservation for a table. We opted for the daily menu (2 courses for £25) but very surprised at the very small portions. The views, however, are spectacular. The cocktails are just short of £10 each. We preferred to eat in the Indigo Terrace for the remainder of our stay and would thoroughly recommend the steak sandwich. We found the staff more attentive, and the service appeared to be more efficient. They serve great hot and cold food until 8.30pm.

Had a lovely time - the room overlooking the bay provided the best view and it was a dream to wake up to the sound of waves every morning. Can't beat the location and there are several restaurants nearby as well as the hotels own which was really convenient for drinks in the evening and for a quick lunch between beach sessions. Everything was clean and quiet and service was friendly and even called to tell us our room was ready earlier than planned.
