Duke Of Richmond

The outdoor swimming pool and sundeck, which is open from April to October, is just the place to take in the superb views over St Peter Port harbour and the neighbouring islands across the sea. In addition, as part of the Red Carnation Hotel Collection, guests have the option of using the superb spa facilities at the sister hotel, the Old Government House. Alternatively, the Beau Sejour Leisure Centre, which has an indoor pool, is just five minutes walk from the hotel.

As you head inside and find yourself in a sleek black-and-white checked marble lobby, you’ll instantly realise why the Duke of Richmond is known for its style and unique design. The monochrome theme continues in the airy Zebra Lounge, where bespoke zebra-print porter chairs provide a cosy nook from which to relax with a drink and watch the world go by.

Popular with locals and guests alike, the Duke of Richmond has gained an excellent reputation for outstanding dining, a remarkable cellar and a stylish bar. The much-loved Leopard Bar & Restaurant draws diners for its bespoke cocktails and dining menu, and guests can watch the chef cooking up a storm through the open kitchen, before indulging in everything from fresh local seafood, to celebrated signature dishes. Afternoon tea is always an occasion in the Zebra Lounge or out on the sun washed Terrace, which is also perfect for breakfast, morning coffee, alfresco lunches, or a romantic candlelit dinner. If the weather is chilly, you can dine or chat in the Conservatory which is flooded with sunlight and always warm.

Individually designed rooms and suites seamless blend homely decorative charm with stylish modern amenities. Along with comfortable touches, each of the 73 rooms and suites feature one-of-a-kind artworks, hand-chosen antiques, and vibrant patterned walls. Classic double rooms have a queen double bed and provide air-conditioning, ensuite bath and shower, plush bathrobes, slippers, telephone, digital interactive television, complimentary WiFi, complimentary daily mineral water, tea & coffee making facilities and 24 hour room service.

Upgraded room categories include sea view doubles with a neutral palette and beautiful views over St Peter Port and the ocean, while larger king/twin rooms face the adjacent park or quiet side street and give you more space. Even larger are the superior king/twin rooms which have a seating area and face the town centre, although there is a sea view to the left towards the main harbour. Alternatively, opt for the sea view king/twin rooms which also give you a panoramic balcony while opulent suites each have a private sun terrace with outdoor seating.
