The Stafford Hotel, Jersey: Past Glories




From the web page:

"The Stafford is a 2 STAR BUDGET hotel in Jersey, just a short walk from St Helier town centre, main seafront, the ferry port and the financial district. Over the past generations the Doran family have been involved in the ownership and running of classic and elegant hotels with the Revere Hotel and Belleck Castle. In 2008 the family expanded the portfolio of hotels to include the Stafford Hotel, which apart from being next door to the Revere offered a wider client base and allowed the family to offer top quality hospitality to many more guests."

And in the news, December 2021:

"ANDIUM Homes has purchased the Mayfair, Stafford and Revere Hotels to develop hundreds of properties."

But back in the past, in 1954, it was still a going concern.




















And now I have obtained a brochure from even earlier. Alas, it is undated, but it does have planes landing on St Aubin's beach, so that might help date it. In the meantime, enjoy a trip to a pre-war time when tourism was still somewhat in its infancy before the post-war boom.
