Location ideal for the centre of St Peter Port with bonus of car parking, which is valet operation and works very well. Staff all excellent with just the right degree of friendliness. Hotel packed with old world charm and public rooms a delight to be in. Classic double room compact but extremely comfortable and well equipped. Although room charges high felt the dinner menu prices could be a little more competitive for guests?

I had the pleasure to be hosted in this hotel for few months in a long term business trip. I can only say it is perfect in term of facilities and services with the professionality of the staff being an authentic value added. I was comfortable as if i would be in my own house and even more. Highly recommended.

What a pleasure to stay at this delightful hotel: old world charm and service sadly lacking in most "modern" hotels of today. Sumptious decor in both public and private areas: our 'King' room was just right and bathroom well furnished. We dined in both Governer's (what a beautiful room), and the Brasserie - great food, perfect for any occasion, again with perfect service. We just don't know why we haven't found OGH before (the complimentary bottle of 'bubbles' for our anniversary helped too), but, when I became unwell on the last day the guys excelled themselves right down to the ''hot toddy' - thank you! All in all, a great stay: we are eagerly anticipating our next visit.

Stayed in a suite, overlooking the harbour. Fabulous views. Room was very comfortable and spacious. Enjoyed lovely afternoon tea in the suite. Service was first class. Wonderful setting in conservatory restaurant for dinner on the Saturday evening, and excellent breakfast on Sunday morning. Would definitely return again. Stayed in hotel and dined in restaurant Saturday 7th March 2015.

Stayed for a week and thoroughly enjoyed it. Let's get the negative bit over with- the standard double room was small as other travellers have said but the room was lovely, classy decor and really comfortable bed. The staff are the best ever, without exception and we were so well looked after. Went the extra mile when we had taxi problems taking us to our booked restaurant and picking us up again later, all with grace and courtesy. Breakfast was very good with every choice you could wish for. Nice pool, good spa, lovely gardens and pool seating. Lovely lounge areas and bar. Minor trauma with our safe malfunctioning quickly and professionally sorted. we will definitely be back.

OGH Hotel and Restaurant turned out to be the perfect "getaway" long weekend for me as a solo traveler. The hotel is historic and charming and very convenient to the sites in attractive setting of St. Peter Port. It was within walking distance to the quay, shopping, restaurants and museums. When I first arrived at the hotel, Jaro, a member of the concierge staff, took me for a tour of the hotel. He made me feel welcomed immediately and I settled in right from the start. I had all my evening meals in the excellent restaurant, where Chris always made sure I had a table with a view! Often as a solo guest, I have been put into dark corners of restaurants, which was certainly not the case here. Ken, also part of the restaurant staff, cooked special dishes at the in-dining room trolley, so I had an amazing Steak Diane and a peach dessert that he prepared right there! Both Ken and Chris were always on top of things to be sure dinner was a treat and a memorable event! Jaro (concierge) had arranged a private taxi tour of the island for me at a set price, but the taxi driver charged me 20 pounds more for the tour. When Jaro learned about the overcharge, he found the taxi driver and had the 20 pounds returned to me. It is clear that the entire staff truly make an effort to ensure that guests enjoy their stay at the OGH Hotel! I had a wonderful time.

Another fantastic stay at the OGH. Was really the only place to stay for such a special occasion and Andrew and the team didn't let us down. Without exception, nothing is too much trouble and the whole team treated us as if we were the most important guests they had ever had. We took dinner for the 'special day' at the Brasserie and had the most memorable of times. The food was outstanding with staff being attentive without being intrusive. We don't usually like to mention people by name especially when so many were involved in making our stay so special but......Ken, Jozef, Holly, Kristen, Dale, Castil thank you all so much and Paul, the resident pianist and singer (fantastic voice) thanks for the rendition of Dawn's favourite Simply Red track. And lastly but by no means least, huge thanks to Andrew for being in on the surprise and welcoming us back, will see you again soon. Mark & Dawn

From handing the car keys to the valet to park the car, to eating one of the most delightful meals we've had in ages, elegance is the word that comes to mind.
A compact yet lovely, comfortable, quiet room; a bathroom with a large bath (and flannels - great for a wet-shaver like me); real coffee and fresh milk on request from room service (just perfect); and an unexpectedly exciting dining experience.
The whole building oozes elegance and service. Delightful.

I have stayed here a number of times now, all for business. The staff are attentive as always, and the rooms are great. I think I have only had one 'ok' room.
The bar has a great selection of local, European, and far away drinks to choose from.
Its ideal for our trips to Guernsey due to its location between the town of St. Peter Port, and our office. The town itself is a very short walk down the hill, and there is a great selection of restaurants to pick from. In the busy season, I do recommend getting the hotel to book ahead for you.
