Our first stay in Guernsey and at this hotel. We loved it! The staff were kind, friendly and helpful and the hotel was immaculate. The management should be very proud of their staff.
The hotel is at the top of a long hill and for the first three days we puffed and panted our way to the top, but by day four we made it without difficulty! Just a matter of fitness really. Taxis are relatively cheap and worth it if you have eaten too well in the town.
According to the Daily Telegraph, the Leopard Bar is a hidden gem - and it's in this hotel! There is also a lovely, large terrace overlooking a pool and is a very pleasant place to be
Loved Guernsey. The people are very proud of their island - and it shows.

Brilliant - well worth a visit :-)
Staff were very friendly and more than happy to help.
The afternoon tea came out on the most fabulous picnic bench - and we ate the lot - loved it :-)
Would definitely recommend!

Hotel needs a serious refurbishing, possibly ( after reading other reviews) we stayed in the OLD wing. Very tired, the only way to describe our room decor is : Alice in Wonderland on speed who went back to 70ies?? Fabric on the walls... badly stained walls due to air con leak ( grey huge monstrosity on the wall ). very old fashioned carpet, old fashioned looking and very tired doors ( opearated by Key not card... lock very dodgy). Having said that, the bathroom looked refurbished in last few years although it is already falling apart, doors falling off hindges if you try to open the bathroom cupboard ( this sort of thing). now the good things: STaff is lovely and very helpful. Food in restaurant really good ( well done ot the chef). Waiting staff is helpful, cooked breakfast was wonderfull - we tried several things from the menu and it was really really good. Continental selection disappointing , quality or display are just not there - definitely work for improvement. Bed in our horribly old fashioned stained room was fabulous. really good comfortable matterace. Good quality sheets . room on a small side and they put coffee/tea making facilities in the wordrobe, all quite odd. Would i stay there again ? Although we had a fairly comfortable stay, maybe, not sure, i would probably like something more modern next time. Location wise - if you are walking - it is on the top of the hill so a bit of a climb each day. we didnt mind it.

Very nice, clean, well appointed hotel with reasonably proportioned rooms. Excellent restaurant serving great breakfasts, although evening meals are quite expensive. Very helpful and knowledgeable staff.

Room was good with tea/coffee usable WiFi. Had a staircase (3 steps) which could be a problem. Staff really helpful. Food excellent, the decor of the restaurant is not to my taste. Location is really good, 10 minute walk (steep) to the main St Peters Port area (but through Candie gardens). A bit noisy Friday night, but the rest of week was very quiet

We stayed 5 nights in this excellent hotel. 3 nights were as part of a large group. The hotel staff were very helpful & friendly. They were hard pressed because of our group of eighteen friends, whilst also preparing for two weddings, yet they coped very well & the staff remained helpful & cheerful throughout.

Stayed for the weekend whilst on a business trip, everything was excellent, staff very attentive and helpful, rooms very clean. Good breakfast, the hotel is a bright and welcoming place visited by many non-residents as it's a nice place to meet for a drink with a pleasant mix of age groups, well worth a visit.

A return visit to a lovely hotel. Friendly staff, efficient and courteous. We had a great room with a fantastic view of the sea. Food is good, well located for the town as long as you don't mind walking up a steep hill. The sister hotel of Old Government House, it's tough to say which I prefer. They are both great but whilst the bar of OGH is better, the relaxed feel of Duke of Richmond probably shades it for me

We stayed here for our 25 anniversary and the staff were amazing they wrote us a lovely card gave us bubbly and a lovely plate with a chocolate inscription. The hotel and rooms were also amazing as was the food and breakfast.

We decided to choose the OGH Hotel's Curry room for our very special occasion. We had aperitifs in Harrys Bar followed by a most wonderful dining experience.
The staff were welcoming, knowledgeable and attentive. The food was indeed worthy of their accolades and the evening was a memorable success.
Thank you all at the OGH.
