You'll find yourself at the centre of the nightlife in this cosmopolitan four-star hotel in the heart of Jersey's capital, St Helier, with a choice of three restaurants, and a nightclub that hosts international DJs for dancing into the small hours. Rooms are modelled on those in a luxury yacht, with plenty of wood and glass and super king size beds. A small subterranean spa has an adults-only swimming pool and a few treatment rooms for massages with Jersey products such as lavender. The shops of King Street are about a 10-minute walk away and the marina is just across the road. Also nearby is the waterfront with its leisure complex, cinema and international chain restaurants.
The petanque pitch directly opposite the hotel makes you feel as though you are in France.
The Royal Yacht is in the heart of the capital St Helier. The town's shops and restaurants are within easy walking distance, and the marina and harbour are across the road.
By plane: flights from London Heathrow to Jersey take around one hour. The hotel is a 15-minute taxi ride from the airport. skyscanner.net
