The Moorings Hotel & Restaurant

Gorey Pier puts Mont Orgueil Castle directly in the sightline of anyone sitting by the window here, which is a hard view to compete with and the hotel doesn't try to. The Moorings calls itself a restaurant with rooms, which undersells it: the rooms are quietly stylish and the whole place feels more intimate than a harbourfront address has any right to. Fresh Jersey seafood and inventive cocktails anchor the bar and restaurant downstairs.
