Perfect experience! All the staff is very attentive to make your stay unforgettable.
Special mention to Kris who welcomed us with great kindness and professionalism and to the chef who offers delicious and varied dishes combining beautifully traditional English cuisine and Indian flavors. The atmosphere of the Pension is a call to travel with a refined decoration. We warmly recommend this Pension which deserves its 5 stars for the professionalism and friendliness of all its staff. The room was splendid and spacious. All the necessary comfort is present. And the Pension is conveniently located in the heart of Saint Peter.

Our family of five had a fantastic stay at the Old Government House Hotel.
Chris at the reception made our visit truly special with his warm welcome and helpful recommendations.
The hotel is charming, blending historic charm with modern comfort. The suite was perfect our family and we enjoyed the seaview from our balcony .
The main restaurant was delicious, we recommend the breakfast with large choice.
Overall, OGH exceeded our expectations, thanks to the exceptional service from Chris and the entire staff. Highly recommended for families!

Quite possibly, in 50 years of travelling the world, this is the one place that makes us tick all the boxes. History and position apart, the room was exceptional and beautifully decorated, and the "bistro" area with its fresh green-and-white ambience mixed well with the colonial legacy evident elsewhere. But what made the visit so memorable was the truly genuine enthusiastic and helpful spirit of the staff. The team spirit is very obvious from the smiling faces. Congratulations to all of them, but in particular to Kris on the front desk for a spirited arrival greeting, to Roberto, and to Alessandro who looked after us in the dining area. Great job, everyone!

OGH as it is called in Guernsey was 5 star excellence. The staff from the Manager, Andrew downwards were all so kind, efficient, and helpful. We are a very elderly couple and were looked after and assisted with nothing too much trouble.
As well as the Manager arranging for a toileting aid to go in the bathroom, when I saw the new shower it was clear glass with no handles. We spoke to Andrew because I would not use it without a handle so two temporary ones were fitted. However they were not very successful so the next day the engineers fitted a proper chrome handle and Andrew was pleased that I had drawn this to his attention so he intends to put handles in all the new showers.
Decor of the restaurant - part conservatory was lovely and it was so nice to have tables by the window looking out to the gardens. Breakfast was a feast to behold so it was hard what to choose. Evening dinner was also nicely presented. Room service was exceptionaly good - a nice selection of sandwiches and a bottle of wine when England versus Spain was on and on our last night we had fish and chips with wine in a bucket in our room.

Absolutely top notch establishment. From the valet parking our car, to the subtle enquiry for the occasion that resulted in a surprise celebratory gourmet chocolate feast in our room, it was special and we were made to feel special. Kris, who runs reception and his engaging staff were just some names and people. The quietness of the heated pool, early morning spa to ourselves, turning down of beds and an incredible breakfast. And managing our check out whilst allowing us to remain as guests for our late afternoon flight. All in all, highly recommended and I would not stay anywhere else in Guernsey.

We are just waiting for our pick up whilst sitting in the OGH lobby so thought I would write the review while still fresh in my mind.
We hotel is beautiful & the room we had was a king with a balcony with views over ST Peters port which was fabulous . We have stayed at a lot of 5 star hotels & resorts but the staff at the OGH as the best we have come across, they are so helpful & attentive.
The food in the hotel was top notch also , we also ate out out some fabulous places.
We did have a couple of niggles but these were instantly dealt with by Kris on reception who is exceptional at his job.
We will definitely be returningđź‘Ź

Perfect hotel. The staff can not do enough for you.
The breakfasts were vast and delicious. We ate in the restaurant most nights and it was the best steak I have ever tasted.
Kris at reception was an angel. Highly recommend the hotel organised trip to Cobo Bay.

Fantastic hotel with brilliant staff who are all friendly and caring. We specially like the curry Room, but the normal Brasserie is fine too. The Crown Coctail Bar makes a nice start to the evening. Turn-down service is a good touch, and ensures that towels are changed twice a day if needed. Very good location to get into town for shops and othe restaurants.

We chose this hotel to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary and stayed a week based on the 5 star rating and the online reviews. We were NOT disappointed. The room, the bathroom with wonderful shower(s), the view were all great, but the real stars of the hotel are the staff. From our check-in with welcoming champagne to the check-out, the staff were engaging, exceptionally friendly and helpful, going out of their way to service our particular wishes. Special shout outs to Alessandro and Stewart for their kindnesses and assistance. Breakfasts in the Brasserie were especially wonderful with such a delightful setting - very “civilized” (my highest compliment!). We received a complimentary chocolate mousse cake and card from the hotel (Andrew?) congratulating us on our anniversary. All in all, they made our celebration very special and memorable. Thank you all at OGH!
