La Villette Hotel

This was our second visit to La Villette hotel and again we could not fault it. We had a large room in the main building - the steps down are a bit steep for anybody with mobility issues but there is a lift. Great to be able to use the gym/pool/jacuzzi. Bus stop outside - recommend a puffin pass if you are staying for a week as you can use it to get round the island and to and from the airport (pass can be bought at the airport). We ate at the hotel a couple of times - good choice and portion size - and also went to Sahara City and Wicked Wolf which are both nearby. There's also the Captains/Barbarie/Douvres in the area but didn't fancy the walk back in the dark though the bus does stop outside. Love Guernsey, the island of my childhood, and hopefully will be back again (staying at La Villette of course!).

I had a 4-night stay earlier this month and was very comfortable. The indoor and outdoor pools are clean and were very quiet. All the room facilities were spotless and in good condition. I slept well here. The staff were mainly very helpful and polite. This is a very traditional and conventional hotel though and I’d suggest the staff have some diversity training to learn more about interacting with guests who don’t fit the 60+ white couple demographic.

We stayed at La Villette in Guernsey. I would say a solid 3-star unpretentious hotel offering reasonable accommodation and good quality standard fare in the restaurant. Excellent leisure facilities are free to residents and the location is handy for local bus services. Our only gripe was that the housekeeping was not that brilliant. Our room was only say 75% serviced to an acceptable standard. Over the five days we could not help but notice the accumulation of debris on the breakfast room carpet. We would have expected this to have been hoovered every day but this was not to be on our watch. Just little things that are easy to fix. Also, the smell of tobacco smoke in the reception area. Not sure where it was coming from, maybe an employee having a quick puff ? We also have to be honest in that we did not feel that the hotel deserved any additional gratuities because of these cleaning deficiencies. Even the final bill was poorly presented with a dodgy printer - see photo attached. In conclusion, a few small remedies put in place would add considerably to the visitor experience. However, we would still recommend this hotel and definitely have no issue returning & would be hoping to see those mentioned improvements.

Absolutely love this place. Great food Great service Family friendly Live music around the pool in the sunshine just perfect Sunday. The Sunday lunch menu is great. Huge portions, good quality ingredients. Great atmosphere, a real hidden gem.

We have just come back from six days at this hotel. The hotel is absolutely fantastic. The indoor and outdoor pool was superb. My husband enjoyed the Gym. The food was by far some of the best food we have had at an hotel and in general! A wide range of breakfast choices ! Absolutely top service and they all made my children feel right at home. The room was also amazing. Cleaned throughout everyday. The family room was very large ! The hotel is about a 25 minute walk to one of the beaches and a fifteen minute bus ride to St Peter’s Port and 5 minutes down the road from the airport. Definitely we will come back !! Thank you to this hotel for helping us create memories !!

A great hotel to stop in, the staff go the extra mile to make your stay enjoyable. Great facilities available to guests and a very good menu in the restaurant. Close to bus stops and although in the countryside is very easily accessible. Very good choice for breakfast and the rooms are very comfortable.

A good standard three star hotel which offers all the facilities for an overnight stay. If you bring your swimming costume, there is a pool included in the room rate. I stayed due to weather conditions being unable to travel to my final destination. The airline Aurigny paid for the accommodation. . Breakfast is quite substantial and hot. The evening meal was swiftly served and is traditional British fair. Staff were polite and well organised. The bedroom was smallish, but absolutely perfectly appointed with a comfortable bed and very clean room. The only downer being that it is under the flight path of the airport, but that is only a minor point.

Excellent meal in the restaurant spacious airy and comfortable atmosphere staff all very friendly and pleasant we were a large party they were good by checking our choices to make sure we had what we wanted Very good menu from all your favorites too Christmas menu also you can have as many courses as you like Everything look lovely fresh and hot and prices good too What’s not too like We definitely be visiting again thanks for a lovely time

I stayed there for a week from the 4th to 11th October 2023 and was very lucky with the weather. The Hotel is a bit out of the way and is a good walk to St Peters Port which I did daily. However there is a nearby bus stop / route (day pass recommended) and cabs are easily available. There are no complaints at all about either the hotel or the staff. The room was serviced every day and everything cleaned. Breakfast (Ps the sausages were proper) and Evenings meals were good. I did go as part of a Condor package and it was very good value. I wanted a base from which I could go and explore the delights of Guernsey and got that. Would I go to La Vilette Hotel again ....... Yes. Leslie B
