“Souhaiteriez-vous y retourner, que …”: Does this conditional structure without “si” sound too formal?

Yes, it is very formal, that’s definitely not something that would be used in a normal conversation. Not only the conditional without “si”, but also the construction “infinitive serait mon plaisir” are not usually used in conversation. We would rather use something like:

Si vous souhaitez y retourner, je vous raccompagnerais avec plaisir.

or more casual (“souhaiter” by itself is quite formal):

Si vous voulez y retourner, je vous raccompagnerais avec plaisir.
