FAB! FAB! FAB!
We have been fortunate enough to travel to every Continent in the world and have experienced many types of hotel accommodation, staff and locations....and, here in Guernsey, the OGH has to rate among the best of the best!

We were actually a day late arriving at OGH as, due to "inclement weather" we couldn't sail from Jersey (our Christmas away from home venue) to Guernsey the evening before....
Our weary travel-worn selves were very warmly greeted by Jack at reception....and he pointed us in the direction of the (rather difficult to negotiate) car park and sent Stewart (Concierge?) around to help us in with our (endless!) luggage...

We had, early for us (7.30am), a pleasant breakfast in the hotel and then crashed out for a couple of (much needed!) hours catch-up sleep....

We enjoyed a beautifully appointed room with a sea view....
We noticed that, if requested, a mini fridge could be bought to the room...and, pretty much, only 5 minutes after our request, the very obliging Stewart had lugged one up for us...what a star!

The hotel is literally only a few minutes down the hill to the main shopping/restaurant etc area....
This was a very pleasant surprise as the hotel feels "at a distance" from the rest of the world!...only a good thing!!

All the staff were a joy to meet (Jack and reception staff in particular) and nothing appeared to be too much trouble for this friendly, professional team

We were fortunate enough to meet the General Manager (Andrew) who is charm personified ....
I mention this as I/we believe it was Andrew who sanctioned our request for a late check out....but then went that step beyond...
We were not due to sail back to the UK until 22.25 hrs that evening....and we were permitted to stay "until we needed to leave"...ie. approx 21.00 hrs!...that's some "late check out, eh? (at no extra cost btw!)
AND....before we left, reception called up tp ask if we would like a "food parcel" to take with us for our journey home to the UK!....how kind, how thoughtful...we accepted, of course....
Roberto (lovely , charming man from Sicily) bought it out to our car as we were leaving the hotel... it was absolutely delicious and most welcome!

Whilst this latter part of the review is not necessarily about the hotel I have written it to use as an example of the way the management and staff really do care about and value their guests!

If I lived in Guernsey this would become my second home....as I don't live in Guernsey I/we just dream to return!

Well done one and all!
FIVE STARS without hesitation!

I believe this is the first time I have ever eaten here, I have attended weddings and meetings in the past. I had forgotten how elegant and classy this hotel is. We had a couple of drinks at the bar,before being shown to out table. Unfortunately the restaurant was quiet,probably due to the current situation. I ordered the Chicken pate and the main dish of Ribeye, The service level was excellent,the food was really good,and the wine was just right. This was a really special evening out, it’s fine dining at one of Guernsey’s top hotels.

Josiah and the whole team at Firstcall were absolutely fantastic in helping me find my desired role. I feel very lucky to have had their support and it has been brilliant to find an agency that genuinely wants you to progress and succeed in your professional career. They ensured I was updated at every stage of the entire recruitment process. Josiah spent lots of time with me prior to my interviews, going through possible interview questions in as much detail as possible to make sure that I was adequately prepared. Throughout the process, Josiah was always available to answer any questions and make sure that everything went smoothly. Many thanks to Josiah and the team for such brilliant services! Would highly recommend them.

Working with Firstcall, specifically Marcel, has been a pleasant experience. He takes the time to get to know you personally as well as your career goals to understand what role/company will be the right fit. I was provided updates and feedback regularly and he ensured ongoing contact between myself and my new employer for the smoothest transition possible.
Should I require the services of a recruitment agency again in the future, Marcel will be the first person I call.

Lovely hotel. Good position a short 5 minute walk into town centre. Uphill on way back.
Standard room was a bit on the small side, and no view.
Breakfast very good, and ate in the hotel twice in the evening, which was also very good.
Bar service on the slow side.
Reception and concierge very efficient.

Having just come back from spending 5 nights at OGH I wanted to share. We were lucky enough to be given a balcony room with a sea view. The room and the facilities were exceptional. From the moment we arrived and the hire car was valet parked. Every member of staff without exception was so helpful and friendly. The meals in the hotel were fantastic, we particularly enjoyed the breakfasts. I also had a treatment in the spa and again can say probably one of the best facials I've ever had. We have stayed in Guernsey many times, but staying at this hotel made the experience so special. I hope we get to stay here again. 💓
