I never normally write on here, but for this i thought i had too. My Husband and I live in Guernsey and have just had our wedding reception here. It was the perfect location. Warmly welcomed every time both pre wedding meetings and on our special day, by friendly and very helpful staff. Obviously it goes without saying that the... More

Spent three days and two nights there.... Warmly welcomed and directed to the apartment. Spacious, clean, comfortable, cosy signatured robe with all the trimmings of eco friendly toiletries.... Staff were friendly, professional, helpful, yet quietly discreet. A special mention goes to the lady serving breakfast and the gentleman who took time to explain unfamilair dishes on the menu. Cost effective,... More

Although I live in Guernsey I was going to a finance industry dinner at the hotel and decided to stay the night so I could enjoy the evening and avoid the taxi scrum. I had booked a ground floor studio room and was surprised they did not offer me a special rate because of the dinner but took the room... More

I have just completed a two night stay at this hotel. What can I say…? I am a frequent business traveller, with a fairly simple set of requirements. Comfort, cleanliness, location, connectivity & food. Comfort I got a ground floor studio room which was in all fairness massive. The bed was vast, in fact I’m certain I have stayed in... More

We stayed for two nights at La Grande Mare while visiting friends on Guernsey. The room was large with comfortable beds, an enormous bathroom and sumptuous towels. The meal we took in the restaurant was excellent quality and value, breakfast was simple but adequate and the service was excellent throughout. We were advised that there were functions in the hotel... More

This is the second New Years Eve we have stayed at this local hotel. We had a suite for 6 adults. It was very comfortable, even our friends who slept in the pull down bed were very happy with the accommodation. The bathrooms were huge and had all you would expect in a 4 star hotel, robes, slippers, soaps and... More

We have been going to La Grande Mare for many years as timeshare owners. This review is about our stay in the hotel in October 2011. In the past I would have given the hotel an excellent rating but we were disappointed this year by an increased level of noise generated by various bits of hotel equipment. This sometimes started...

Being on holiday in Guernsey during Tennerfest we try to discover the restaurants of the island at a very reasonable price; for £10 we had a super 3 course lunch at this restaurant; the food was well prepared, hot and well presented. The service was adequate, however the dining room was functional but unatmospheric and very basic, rather disappointing in... More

I did quite a lot of research with friends who live in Guernsey when I was looking for a hotel for a long weekend for my family (husband, plus two teenage children, 14 and 16). We opted for La Grand Mare and it turned out to be absolutely perfect. It is a bit dated and there are some odd stylistic... More
