Somerville Hotel

酒店位置很安靜，入住體驗很好

Lovely hotel with friendly staff that make you feel welcome. More personal approach than in the bigger chain hotel which was really nice over the Christmas period. Great breakfast, continental as a buffet and hot breakfast to order with a good selection. The room was comfortable and homely and additional needs are met with a smile. The back bedrooms (others will be seaview) look over trees and a quiet lane that runs behind and above the hotel, but could have some noise from the kitchen/extractor fan’s below when in use, but it didn’t bother us. If you prefer to be away from that and enjoy the stunning sea view towards St Helier be sure to book a sea view room. Free parking for hotel guests and there was always a space even though it’s not a huge carpark. The up-hill walk up to the hotel from St Aubin’s is a bit of a climb, but doable even for those that don’t class themselves as fit, but for someone with poor mobility it will be better to take the car. Restaurant serves good quality food in a nice environment especially when able to take in that sea view with a great service. In the summer there is a nice outside pool, but a short walk downhill leads to the beach on either side of the harbour depending on the tide. We will stay here again

The hotel has been very stylishly updated and the public reception rooms are smart and comfortable. Beautiful bedroom overlooking St Aubin's Bay. The room would suit a double rather than a king-sized bed as that slightly fouls entrance to the room. Excellent lighting. The bedroom windows are not a snug fit so that the room was chilly. This was as much my fault in not adjusting the radiator's thermostatic valve ! Light and well equipped bathroom. It lacked a hand held shower and when bathing, the soap dispenser was inaccessible. A traditional bar of soap would solve the problem. Fortunately, even when staying in 4 or 5star hotels, I always pack soap but it's always disappointing when a hotel of this quality doesn't quite think things through. Good quality linen and towels. Staff professional and helpful. Breakfast and bar food excellent and very good value. I've stayed before and will stay again !

We loved the location and character of the property. Most of the staff were lovely can we mention the man whose name starts with O on reception is exceptional who genuinely goes out of his way to help. When we left on very early Saturday morning a lovely man on reception whose name we didn’t get again went out of his way to call a cab and whilst waiting made us coffee. The breakfasts were also really good. The rooms were very quirky but to warm.

Very poor experience for us. A last minute booking due to the travel chaos. The first room we were presented with was above the kitchens and noisy fans. My partner is 8 months pregnant and I was very unwell for the whole stay. We were relocated to a ground floor room where deliveries and maintenance men were parking, coming and going, leaving engines on. I had to knock on the window at 12.45am to break up a loud conversation between two hotel employees. We did think the hotel had been tastefully updated in the common areas. The views from the lounge area were beautiful. The outside pool is also a big plus. The food was an absolute car crash. My partner had room service which was £44 for a sirloin steak half a mushroom and half a tomato and a side or two. I didn’t make breakfast on the first day due to ill health but on the second day, wow. Smoked salmon and scrambled eggs on sourdough was tragic. The salmon was pumped full of water and I’m convinced the egg out of a plastic carton. It was anaemic and the texture was very strange. I couldn’t even stomach a bite. I overheard they only schedule one chef on for morning service. The laundry woman was very pleasant and Krzysztof the receptionist was very kind sorting out a late check out. We had a better experience at the Royal Jersey. I would definitely give this place a miss if you want value for money and quality food.

Good breakfast, nicely updated decor, comfortable furnishings, beautiful views. Some of the rooms only have smaller double beds, so we recommend booking a twin/king room.

Overall the stay was excellent. The room was clean and relatively spacious. One small negative related to the bathroom - the fixed head shower was difficult to manipulate due to high position on the wall and as such must prove awkward for some guests to adjust. Food was excellent but some of the staff at breakfast were too quick to remove plates from the table when not everyone had finished eating. The location provided a stunning view across the bay both during the day and also at night when it was lit up. For a quiet stay in St Aubin, I would recommend this hotel.

All the Staff were excellent and we had a wonderful stay at this fabulous Hotel

We stayed at The Somerville for a short break away and would definitely return. We had dinner at Tides restaurant on our first evening and it was superb. Breakfast was also lovely each morning. We enjoyed several drinks in the hotel’s Voyager bar which also didn’t disappoint. The staff we interacted with were all extremely professional and efficient. We enjoyed the outdoor pool area during our stay. Sunloungers were very comfortable. The pool was very cold (not sure if it is heated) but I enjoyed a refreshing swim. Perhaps the area around the pool could be a little tidier in terms of clearing the patio areas of accumulated fallen leaves etc. Worth noting also is that the rooms do not have air conditioning and ours was extremely warm. A fan is provided in the room however. We had booked a standard double room on this occasion which was too small/cramped. Next time we would definitely book a larger room.
