- Pamela JBenfleet, United Kingdom117 contributionsHistoric SiteNice place to visit as it has historical interest being the square Island residents all congregated on the day of liberation in 1945 and there is a statue to commemorate it. Now a busy place with restaurants, an ice cream kiosk and also a good place to book any trips as the coach companies are situated here. Also where you can get on the little train that goes along the coast road to St. Aubin.Visited July 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 20 July 2023

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

It was lovely to sit in Liberation Square and just soak up the atmosphere.. The monument to the liberation of Jersey is fascinating and needs to be studied for a while to see all of its elements. Really enjoyed this area of St. Helier.

An interesting sculpture laid out around a small water feature, an ideal location for a drink and a snack with a pub/cafe area nearby

Myself and 3 of my friends had a lovely 3 day break
Last week. We stayed in Premier Inn Charing Cross in centre of St Helier.
Hotel was spotless and beds very comfortable. Staff where lovely and very welcoming and looked after us very well nothing was too much bother.
We used the very good bus service and visited St Brelades, St Aubins and Corbiere.
There are lots of restaurants and coffee shops in St Helier and we ate some lovely food.
Would recommend the Petite Train you can get on at Liberation Square and it takes you to St Aubins, £9 return. Also there are buses that you can take for half day trip and stops at all the bays. We didn't do this as we didn't have time but we will when we return.
Ps, a trip to the market in St Helier is a must.
