Stayed for 5 days whilst visiting Guernsey.
Nice smart clean hotel.....the staff are VERY efficient but could be a little warmer.
We had a garden room which was a little dark for me and had no windows just a patio door which we had to leave open all night for air.
Food in the resteraunt and bar was......excellent., I mean really excellent.!
Pool and sauna were closed for refurb.

Upon arrival to the Hotel we were greeted by the friendly and courteous operations manager, Shaun McSomething, who showed us to the front desk for a seamless check in. Dutch, A young Swedish trainee offered to assist us with our bags, which was a nice and professional touch.
The room (256) was clean, with a balcony which was a lovely suntrap in the late afternoon that overlooked a small park and the lake which was pleasant. The room its self had a large very comfortable bed, plenty of space and a snazzy coffee machine, what else!. The bathroom was also nice, the water pressure in the shower was perfect. the only downside to the room was the noisy occupant in 254 (I wouldn't dare to dream what he was up to) but as we spent very little time in the room, I won't hold that against the hotel!. On the first night I wasn't impressed the pillow but by the second night my head and neck had adjusted and I had what could only be described as an adequate and full nights sleep.
The breakfast options were extensive, I particularly enjoyed gluten free chocolate flavoured rice puffs. full cooked and continental breakfast options were available with the expected choices of tea, coffee, juices etc. The service could have been slightly quicker but I was never in a rush.
One of my personal highlights were the complimentary mints, sweets and postcards that were available from reception. Its the little extras that count.
I conclusion I would come back in a heart beat, if invited................or welcome

A very pleasant hotel, near to the centre of St Peter Port,. Clean, tidy very comfortable with very helpful staff. The food was also top class. The only downside was very few rooms had walk in showers, which if your mobility is impaired is a bit tricky.

Brilliant understated very tasteful hotel. Staff very attentive to client needs. Excellent choice for breakfast. Bar meals good value for money. Room ample size . On a bus route to the town . Would definitely stay again. Had swimming pool which was a good size together with a steam room. Work was being done near by in the hotel but that did not affect your swim. Also there was a nice walk around the grounds and a small children's play area.

This is a high spec hotel ideal for a quiet and relaxing weekend. A mature party of travellers did not appreciate the fire alarm being set off apparently accidentally by a member of staff at 2.30 in the morning to be followed the next night by not one but two discos at either end of the hotel with loud beat music till midnight. This ruined what should have been a delightful weekend with all amenities in beautiful surroundings. The hotel needs to decide who it is trying to appeal to and not give the impression of a peaceful retreat when this is not the case.

We had two nights at the St. Pierre Park with a group of friends. On arrival, check in took an age as there were only two people checking in a large number of people whilst managers sat in the background failing to come front of house. We had booked an Executive room but when we saw it, it was anything but. Small, too much furniture and strangely, a small balcony that you could hardly get onto as it had a table and one chair that filled the space. Far from the relaxing place for two of you to sit overlooking the gardens! At Reception we were told that all the balconies on the top floor were like this.
Reluctantly, they changed our room and we were given a more pleasant room with a larger balcony on the same floor as Reception so at least you could sit on it. We had a meal in the evening and the food wasn't good. My wife and I had the feta cheese with peppers that was ill thought out with large slices of feta and not much else. For the main course I had steak that was tough and my wife had scallops that were the only scallops that she said she had ever tried to eat that were very gritty and most unpleasant. Pudding couldn't really go wrong as we had chosen cheese.
The highlight of the stay was the breakfasts that were served in a pleasant dining room with plenty of choice and you had the option of freshly cooked omelettes or such things as haddock and poached eggs. No complaints about breakfast except that you often had to stand around waiting to be shown to your table as staff were off doing other things.
The first night we were treated to a fire alarm at approximately 2.30am. I went to Reception to see what was going on and was told we could vacate 'if we wanted to'!! We decided not to and sat on our balcony for the duration as we were on the ground floor and could easily get to the gardens. No-one seemed to know what was going on and it transpired we weren't the only ones who didn't vacate and no roll call was seemingly taken to see who was still in their rooms - lessons to be learnt there.
The second night's buffet meal was better than the first but be warned that wine is £10.50p a large glass for run of the mill Pinot Grigio. Three glasses each came in an £63 - ouch!
The second night saw our function upstairs, another function in the basement and two wedding parties with loud music. This was due to finish at midnight and in fairness it did but I sat on my balcony for the last 20 minutes whilst the music played as there was little point in trying to sleep whilst the discos were in operation. Some of our group said that once the discos finished they were kept awake until about 2.30am as staff cleared one of the wedding venues and set up with tables and chairs for breakfast the next day.
Management needs to take a closer look at detail, bedside lights that weren't working due to blown bulbs, unswept balconies, flowers beds on balconies that look to have woody geraniums and little else from last summer that all gives a feeling of lack of attention to detail.
Would we return to the St. Pierre Park, no and I know that others in our group felt the same. Disappointing and I can't say I was impressed.

My wife and I recently stayed at the Old Government House Hotel and enjoyed every minute of it. I cannot remember better service almost anywhere. The staff are all young, enthusiastic and eager to help. A simple call to reception, even for the most outlandish request and there will be a knock on your door in around a minute or less. The bar and gardens are a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the view. There is also a very fine Indian restaurant that makes you feel back in the last days of the Raj. Our favourite though was the bar with a long balcony overlooking the street where you can observe the passers by of this busy town. Our only puzzlement was why the streets were so full of Germans given the history of the island. My brother-in-law claimed it was the bi-product of a flourishing crop of wartime babies, but he is always prone to exaggerate. Anyway, try the OGHH for a most pleasant experience when you want to get away from it all and be treated as a true guest

We have just spent 3 nights at OGH and will certainly go back. The hotel is ideally situated close to the centre of town and the ferries across to the islands, yet it is a peaceful oasis. The food in the restaurant was amazing and I don't think I have ever experienced better service. This really is what a hotel should be like.
