No. "Les habría gustado a tu padre" means "Your father would have liked them".

"They woul have liked your father" would be: "A ellos les habría gustado tu padre". (Note where the "A" goes).

Well, yes... It took me a very long time to get over the weirdness and seeming lack of logic of many English constructions! :-D - Gekkosan, Mar 30, 2010

What about, Les habría gustado conocer a tu padre? They would have liked to meet your father, right?
