One hundred and three places to stay across five sub-sectors — 45 self-catering, 40 hotels, 7 campsites, 6 guest houses, 3 hostels. Self-catering clusters in St Martin (15) and Castel (9); hotels in St Peter Port (14) and St Martin (11). Twenty-one hold Visit Guernsey membership; the Old Government House has been a hotel since 1858. —
169 organisations are counted with Accommodation as their primary sector — 1 in 20 of everything with a sector on record, and the 10th largest of 16. An estimated 79% of the sector is counted, measured against an independent listing rather than assumed.
The 178 listed on this page and the 169 counted above are different claims, not a discrepancy: this page lists everyone who works in Accommodation; the census counts those whose primary sector it is.

The right-hand column is the gap between accommodation and the island; both values are in the table view. Measured in share of organisations.
Each track carries both values at its ends; the gap between accommodation and the island is in the table view. Measured in share of organisations.
| Sector against island | Accommodation | The island | Gap |
|---|---|---|---|
| Trading on Alderney, Sark or Herm | 22% | 7% | +15% |
| In the seven parishes outside the town and the two northern parishes | 66% | 31% | +35% |
Every counted organisation has an island on record, so both ends of this row are shares of everything counted. Both ends are shares of the organisations whose parish is on record — parish is null by contract on Alderney, Sark and Herm, so the off-island rows above are not in either base.
The seven parishes are Castel, St Martin, Forest, St Andrew, St Saviour, St Pierre du Bois and Torteval — everything outside St Peter Port, St Sampson and Vale.
Forty-five self-catering properties — 15 in St Martin, 9 in Castel — mostly cottages and farm conversions, with three larger complexes.
Forty hotels — one five-star (Old Government House, hotel since 1858), weighted to St Peter Port (14) and St Martin (11).
Six guest houses and B&Bs across the Bailiwick — Le Chêne's 26-room manor at one end, a two-guest Castel barn at the other.
Seven campsites — two traditional, three glamping, two marina-adjacent at Beaucette; oldest 1963, newest 2020.
Three under the hostel label in Guernsey — an emergency shelter for homeless adults and a group house on tidal Lihou Island.
