We stayed here for 3 nights whilst visiting family (who were having building works done)
The receptionists were helpful and charming. As were the servers at breakfast and the room service waiter (albeit we had to chase up room service after 40 minutes to discover they hadn't taken our room number down properly and so had to wait for us to call)
Breakfast was amazing. Full English buffet style lots of choice with lovely soft scrambled eggs. Even had gluten free cereals and toast. We also had a family meal from the carvery on the Sunday which was very good-seafood and salad to start, very well roasted meat and veg and generous selection of desserts
I liked the bar and the view over the lake as well as the board games. I only wish we could have managed to get massages on the Sunday but they were fully booked
Our room had a massive bed, lots of pillows and a lovely balcony.
Now for the slight negatives. We did book a double room online and got a good deal-which is likely why we got a dated room. There were large pink marks in the bath (wear and tear) and the wooden furniture was scuffed especially the wardrobe. Despite there being 2 of us we only had one bath robe-we asked for a second one after the first night but it never arrived. The teabags used on the first night were not restocked in the room nor were the toiletries unlike most 4 star hotels. A bit strangely we left half drunk beer and cider glasses by the tea tray so they could be easily cleared away-but these were still there after the room was cleared.
I think if we had paid for a more expensive room these niggles wouldn't have happened so I'd recommend upgrading if you can. I do hope the hotel upgrades some things though to prevent what is a lovely hotel looking shabby (carpet in the lift for example)
Overall a nice stay which could easily have been perfect

Loved the hotel. Some of the 80s styling is really lovely and a little tired in places. All members of staff we encountered were excellent , efficient and very welcoming. Our room was quite large and had a small balcony. Room decor a little tired but it was spotlessly clean. The breakfasts were very good and we had dinner one evening and it was also a very good quality. We used the swimming pool one afternoon and the pool, sauna, steam room and outside bubble bath were lovely and clean. Although we didn’t use the gym it looked to have quality equipment. We wouldn’t hesitate returning to this hotel as we loved it.

Very friendly and attentive staff throughout the hotel.
We had arrived just before midday looking to just drop our luggage off but fortunately our room was already cleaned and were able to check in.
Regarding the room; the bed was super comfortable, room was spacious and clean. Nice inclusion of a balcony although unfortunately given we stayed in the winter we never actually used it. The downside would be the decor in the room is very dated and worn which prevents me from giving 5/5.
We had both dinner and breakfast in the hotel during our stay and both were very nice.

Stayed for 4 days on a group business trip and was very lucky to be in this hotel. The location is amazing and the view exceptional. The staff were of an extremely high standard and were extremely attentive. The hotel was a little dated in regards to decor but immaculate.

Stayed recently here at the OGH as part of a birthday present for my wife. There is little to add that hasn't already been said in other reviews, as the OGH gets just about everything perfect, but I'll give it a go. Booking was straightforward, and reception checked a few days beforehand that everything was covered. We arrived prior to our room being available (c. midday) but were checked in, luggage left with concierge, and taken to the lounge area and provided with a cool glass of fizz. Much appreciated!
Our room (111) was extremely spacious and spotlessly clean, with a good view out across the harbour and to the sea. All the usual items were provided, as you'd expect in a 5* hotel, complimentary water, quality bathroom products, dressing gown, slippers (too small tho!) etc. but the overall feeling was of quality and attention to detail.
On our first evening, as we had decided not to dine out, we ate in the OGH' Curry Room. Service was faultless and the menu, although set, included some really good options, and the food itself was well spiced, perfectly presented and very tasty. Would recommend.
Breakfast is provided in the bright and airy dining room, and again, service from all staff was just as you would require, attentive but not intrusive. There were many options available from the menu, but the fruit, English breakfast, toast and juice we had was just right, and perfectly cooked. A really pleasant, leisurely and ideal start to the day.
OGH is located about five mins walk down a slope in to St Peter Port, which has some good shops, and some OK. We toured the island via bus (but be aware, service once you get off to view /visit etc) is only about one bus every 45 mins and some bus stops are just `Bus` written on the pavement. Can recommend Castle Cornet in the harbour area, not so the Underground Hospital, which could be so much more with some investment. There are some good pubs and restaurants in the town, particuarly recommend Le Nautique, booking essential. The town gets really busy on Saturday night, and there are the usual boisterous crowds revelling...
Overall, we couldn't recommend OGH more highly. They have got everything right, from the service provided, quality of food and drinks on offer, to the hotel itself, including the grounds, the room(s) and the spa (a new experience for me!). We would definitely recommend this to anyone to stay here. Its not cheap, but neither is it overly expensive either for what is provided, and also what should be expected at a hotel of this level and quality, which is exceeded on all levels. Well done to OGH staff, management and Red Carnation group, as you've really hit the mark here. Top quality. Great location. This is ideal for a perfect relaxing and somewhat indulgent Guernsey break. We'll be back.

We visited for a Sunday lunch and between 8 of us we had just about everything from a Club Sandwich to the Roast Beef. Very attentive staff, reasonable prices for the island's only 5 star hotel and an absolutely gorgeous setting. We'll be going back next time to stay for a weekend.
