The Old Government House Hotel & Spa

We found this a very classy and yet informal and modern facilities hotel. The location is good, just a short walk from the main shopping and sea front and with great views. The Brasserie restaurant was excellent (we ate breakfast, one dinner and one afternoon tea there and all were great. What really made this superb though is the staff. All were very friendly, helpful and effective and there were always plenty of staff on hand for us even when they were also hosting formal event dinners. And a big thanks for how well they coped with out arrival being delayed by 24 hours by weather

Such a lovely hotel with very pleasant staff. On arrival at the hotel we were made to feel so welcome, with a welcome drink. The rooms were of a good size and comfortable. Prior to our stay we completed a pre arrival form and all requests were met. We had to extend our visit due to storm Bert, this was arranged with little effort by reception. Hope to be able to visit again in the near future.

I wanted to take the time to confirm that our recent stay at OGH, certainly exceeded our expectations. We were originally booked to stay at the Duke of Richmond and were advised, that we had been moved to OGH as they were undertaking reburbishments. We stayed at OGH for our wedding anniversary a couple of years ago and that stay was great. This time we travelled with my daughter and her boyfriend and it was his first visit to Guernsey. From us entering and being offered a glass of fizz, the service has been exemplary. Particularly Stuart, always with a bit of information on where to visit. We were lucky enough to be upgraded to sea view King rooms. As part of the package we undertook a cocktail masterclass. We were taught by David, his wife (apologies but I did not get her name) and Jeffrey. This class was amazing and I would certainly consider booking a follow up as they advised, not something I would have originally thought of. We will be using the skills and information we learned at home. The samples were plentiful, with canapés also. The choice of breakfast is lovely and all of our meals used top notch produce. I used the gym briefly and can confirm there being a lot of choice in equipment. I also had a treatment in the spa, which again is a lovely setting. The location of the hotel is so convenient, being only just off the main shopping area, however it is uphill coming back, but then that is Guernsey. I did not take the names of all the staff, but everyone from the person servicing our room, reception, concierge and restaurant staff, were fantastic and made us all feel very special. I had already been recommending OGH to friends and colleagues, but now even more so.
