The restaurant lets down this hotel but not because of the staff, who are all friendly and helpful but because I believe they are inexperienced or badly trained or possibly both. My wife and I stayed for 9 days and only had 1 dinner in the restaurant which was very poor quality. Even breakfast could be hit or miss often with long waiting times for cooked dishes. We saw people walk out before their breakfast arrived. The porridge I ordered on one morning was inedible.
The staff on reception are excellent (especially ) which saves this hotel to some extent.
If you want to eat out (which you will) you need to be aware that it is some hike up the hill from the port back to the hotel or a £7 taxi ride. We spent about £100 on taxis while staying here.
The hotel management were conspicuous by their absence which tells you a lot. In a 9 day hotel stay I would expect to meet the Manager or Assistant Manager just in passing if for no other reason.
If the DoC cut out all the inconsistences that are evident and got the staff up to speed it has the making of a half decent hotel.

We have travelled extensively but this of the best hotels we have ever been to. All the staff were brilliant. It is very well appointed and we had a lovely sea view and balcony. The reception area is amazing with a chess board floor. Just can’t fault it. It takes about 10 minutes to walk in to town. The way back up is quite a hike if you have any mobility issues but a cab is only a fiver. Very impressed, we will go back next year. Thanks to Belen on reception.

We stayed for five nights in a Sea View Superking Room with a balcony for five nights. The OGH is a beautiful period hotel with generous sized rooms( ours had a separate walk-in wardrobe and also a separate walk-in shower in the bathroom. The retractable glass window on the balcony was also a real bonus. They have two restaurants: the Brasserie for both Breakfast and Dinner plus a lovely separate Curry Room. The standard of food in both was excellent, although some of the wines by the glass was fairly pricy, and the standard of service was excellent. There is also the option of eating Al Fresco for breakfast and lunch. A particular excellent feature is the standard of service and the friendliness of the staff throughout the hotel. The OGH sits on a hill above St.Peter Port Harbour with great views and is only a 5- minute walk to the shops and harbour. However bear in mind you are walking uphill on the way back. We felt 5 nights was ideal as it gives ample opportunity to see Guernsey and also visit Herm and/or Sark. Although it is expensive at ca £550/ night B&B it really is worth the money for the really relaxing break the OGH provides.

The food was delicious and the staff were friendly with a relaxed atmosphere, added to by the unobtrusive background music. The menu has a good choice of Sea food and steak. Unfortunately, even though we had an early sitting some dishes were out. There could’ve been a little more choice for vegetarians, this and the cash only due to the card machine not working was the only reason it’s not 5/5

Visited this charming hotel for afternoon tea whilst visiting Guernsey and it was all we could have hope for - and more. Staff from the reception hall to the tea lounge were friendly, helpful and very professional and made us feel welcome for the duration of our visit. We had been planning to visit for some time but covid had prevented us doing so, but the wait was worthwhile. The food was lovely and plentiful - so much so that we took away some cakes and scones in the box that they supplied so we could enjoy them later. Lots of different teas to pick from and a lovely selection of savoury and sweet treats. All in a lovely relaxed atmosphere. Parking outside was limited and I had to move the car part way through the afternoon to avoid any problems with the wardens, but that was no real trouble. Overall a delightful visit and one that I am sure we will repeat.

Good price for fuel but because of that it can get busy, If you happen to be passing it's worth a look. Possibility of winning a prize as well.
