Advantages: Close to town, close to Safeways, Close to beer on the beach! Disadvantages: Guernsey can be quite boring, slow way of life!
...I travel an awful lot to Guernsey and this seems to be the only hotel we use as a company and put up in . It is pretty decent and I am headstrong about giving it a good review.
Guernsey I find pretty dull and boring, the StPierre Park is no exception- home to lots of elderly people who are on regular visits.
The rooms are very nice and bathrooms are lovely- shower and bath.
The layout of the hotel is pretty simple, 4 levels with Gym,Pool, Sauna, Cosmetics, Computer room and also the dining area on the lower floor, middle floor is reception and bar and also the breakfast lounge and higher tiers are rooms - about 140 I believe.Most with balconys.
The hotel is quite well situated - 10 minute walk to St Peter Port ( the capital ) and 2 minutes to Safeways.
I would recommend hiring a car, you will end up most likely with a Ford...

Advantages: Very historic Disadvantages: Spire dosen't seem to match & can never get a good picture
...after construction began in 1160 the StPierre Cathedral has been changing ever since. When it was first built it had a sort of Romanesque-Gothic look, but then when it converted to Protestantism in 1536 the Cathedral was stripped of altars, statues, paintings and furniture, only the stained glass windows were allowed to stay. The Cathedral was famous for John Calvins sermons, that he delivered for 18 years since the Cathedral converted to protestantism, and his chair still remains, situated in the front row.
Many of the visitors go for the spectacular views which ypu can see from the spire, after climbing a narrow and winding staircase consisting of 157 or 8 steps, i can't remember which, you end up seeing the entire of Geneva and beyond, from the Lake and the fountain to the mountains.
Although i never saw it, archaeologists...

..., with very complicated ornaments within the stones. It's also in those areas you'll find the most pretigious shops of the city.
Then, the Quartier St-Pierre is full of bobos, students and young active persons. The area gathers many restaurants and little cafés. And as it's mainly pedestrian, people love to go out around there, to have dinner, see friends, or just have a walk. During the day, you can find a very charming melting pot of people, businessmen having a little rest at a café, students hurrying not to be late, mothers and their families, artists playing in the streets, beggars, tourists, and so on... At night, it's the place to go if you don't know where to go (whistling some old Petula Clark's song).
Then, you can go to more popular streets, with the Victoire area and St-Michel quarter, still full of students, but also dedicated...
