Wonderfully attentive staff across the whole hotel! The Brasserie was a delight to dine in. Bryn, Alice, Joy and all of the team couldn’t do enough for you. The personification of high quality staff that obviously enjoy their jobs and love to interact with guests. I saw the staff treat all guests with respect and went out of their way to be of assistance and help in any way. Truly lovely people.

We just had to leave a review after another amazing holiday at the OGH. Great room with a view of the pool, great food, beautiful building in an ideal central location. Andrew, your staff are amazing, greeting us every day as if we were old friends, and we felt so welcome we can’t wait to come back. I always say it’s unfair to name names as without exception all the staff we encountered were brilliant, but a special thank you to concierge Stuart, Alessandro, Siya and Alice in the restaurant and Lovejoy in the bar , who introduced me to my new favourite drink 😊. Thank you again and we can’t wait to come back! Julie & Ben.

We are pleased that we chose the lovely Old Government House hotel earlier this month. The staff’s helpfulness and professionalism were on target when our AC wasn’t working in our room. We greatly appreciated Kris and his staff with this situation. They switched our rooms and we couldn’t have been happier.
Breakfast was delicious - continental and cooked menu options gave us excellent choices. We will choose this wonderful hotel again if we return to Guernsey.

My first solo trip as a widow. I was met with kindness, efficiency and a staff group that were absolutely brilliant always. The hotel is beautiful, super clean, exactly as described on the website and amazingly comfortable. The room was looked after beautifully during my stay and the staff were there to meet every need. Amenities wise, I mainly used the bistro where fresh local fish and vegetables were the order of the day. Great recommendations from the team and again service that couldn’t be faulted. The grounds are lovely with a great pool which was welcome after the heat of the day. Highly recommended.

It is rare to find top service nowadays, but this is what we experienced at the OGH. Kris was superb, handling our queries and saving us time and money on an item left at the airport. Saitish was fantastic in the bar. Both a credit to the hotel, many thanks

The positives:
The Historic and Very British Mood The Location The Garden The Pool The Room (King Master Suite) Staff Attentions Evening treats on the bed Super scones The quality of the sheets and towels And especially one of the members of the Welcoming very efficient to organize our visits and speaking perfect French
Less satisfactory points for a 5-star hotel:
For example, more cottage cheese this morning, jams Bonne Maman (in a 5 star (bof)), very average pastries, few bread choices, no chocolate sauce, cereals presented in sachets no possibility of having fresh juices pressed, no lobster offered, sandwich afternoon Tea that should be presented more beautifully in small quantities Cutlery steel and not silver metal, overall the kitchen deserves more refinement and more flavors

The hotel is super nice with a great Welcoming. Service is excellent. Kris was adorable and thanks to him we spent two dream days at the Hotel.

I highly recommend this place and hopefully Kris will welcome you.
Thank you to the whole team for the care

We absolutely loved this place! Welcoming from the start to the finish and all the way through with nothing too much trouble. Our German Shepherd was the star of the show and it's rare to find such a quality establishment accepting pets everywhere. Breakfasts were excellent and the curry room fantastic. The Brasserie is ok, but perhaps the menu could be more adventurous. Then again, being so central the the vast range of eateries throughout St. Peter Port we had some sumptuous food. Have to hand it to the CEO Jonathan Raggett, that the staff really do make the difference and if there are any discounts going to try other Red Carnation hotels then count us in! As it stands, we will be returning next year to Guernsey with pleasure!

Our stay at this hotel was perfect, from start to finish: the hotel is beautiful, the room 323 luxurious, spacious and very bright, the bedding perfect. The garden of the hotel is very peaceful and allows for breakfast outside. Outdoor swimming pool, gym and spa area are an asset. The hotel is located in the centre of St Peter's and can therefore be done on foot. Note that the island is mostly visited by bike.
But above all, the staff at the hotel is amazingly kind and professional. I had a bike accident during my stay and all the staff were attentive and adorable with me. Kris at the front desk is a big asset for the hotel as it is perfect! He is very professional, always has a smile, is attentive with everyone, with always a nice little word. A thousand thanks Kris for room 323 and for allowing us to stay until the ferry departs.
