Hotel Review
Ommaroo Hotel, St Helier, Jersey
A seaside hotel right opposite the Victorian seawater bathing pool at Havre de Pas. Shops and bars are just a 15-minute walk away, while a bus stops outside to take you as far as Gorey in the east of the island (or into town). Rooms have period proportions, including a ballroom-sized dining room with vaulted ceilings. Behind the hotel is a sheltered pool with terrace for sunbathing, while beside the hotel is a large shady garden with palm trees, which is often used for local events, including the annual Seaside Festival that sees the whole area packed with food stalls and entertainment. Choose a seaview room to make the most of the location.

Style & Character
Ideal for swimmers who will make the most of the 24/7 sea swimming on the beach outside. We love the collection of etchings featuring the doe-eyed Jersey Cow.

The established hydrangea bushes and horse chestnut trees in the garden make it an ideal spot for afternoon tea. There's also live music in the bar on Friday nights.
