Duke of Richmond Guernsey

Visitors to St Peter Port (Guernsey) should take note that the Duke of Richmond hotel, now upgraded to 4-star and owned by the Red Carnation Group, has re-opened following a £1.5m stylish and contemporary makeover.  It is sister hotel of Old Government House, the only 5-star property on the island, and to several London establishments, including the Chesterfield in Mayfair and the Rubens, near Victoria Station.

The refurbishment has involved dramatic redesigns to the public areas, bar and restaurant, conference facilities.

The new Leopard Bar and Restaurant offers a glass wall to the kitchen.  Diners are able to watch the chefs at work – a spectacle that no other restaurant on the island offers.  The restaurant has an outdoor terrace, which leads on to a heated swimming pool and sun deck, also upgraded as part of the refurbishment programme.

A significant proportion of the hotel’s 71 bedrooms have already been completely renovated, including the stunning penthouse “Sarnia Suite” on the top floor, with bay windows and panoramic ocean views plus three Junior Suites each with a private terrace. 

The hotel also offers three completely refreshed conference and meeting rooms, with state of the art technology and complimentary wi-fi. www.dukeofrichmond.com
