De France

It’s hard not to fall for the 19th-Century charm of this grand hotel, which is located in a quiet spot overlooking St Helier. It’s just a 10-minute walk from the town centre, where you can find lots of great shops, bars, and restaurants, as well as the Elizabeth Castle – which has defended the island for four centuries and is reachable by a causeway at low tide. 

Behind the hotel’s pretty façade, there’s a wealth of modern facilities and stylish interiors. Each guest room offers satellite TV and hot drink facilities, while the on-site spa is nothing short of first-class. Whether you prefer your pampering in the form of a hot stone massage, a luxury facial, or some reiki healing, the hotel has you covered. And for active guests, there’s a fully equipped gym, an infinity pool, and yoga classes.  

When it comes to food, classic French cuisine is the star of the show at the hotel’s La Terrasse Restaurant & Bar, which sources the majority of its produce from the local fields and coastline. Love a sundowner on holiday? The hotel’s outdoor terraces are the perfect places to sip your favourite drinks while watching the sun slowly melt away.

Prepare to be seduced by this four-star charmer.
