Fantastic food, great location. Really fresh sea bass, excellent vegetarian options. Childrens’ menu includes sirloin steak chips and peas which our daughter really enjoyed! Definitely recommended!

Spent a long weekend at The Old Government Hotel & Spa with my wife. It was her birthday so we wanted to curate great experience in Guernsey. The hotel choice was a really good one. The hotel itself, the amenities and the staff were terrific.
I'd like to call out Roberto specifically who made sure every part of our stay was a great one. He welcomed us when we arrived, looked after our car and luggage, and always had a smile on his face. He also went above and beyond by surprising my wife with a birthday cake and some sweets. These little things just make such a difference.
Whilst I mentioned Roberto, all of the staff were top-notch always looking to help us out with their friendly manner. There are plenty of places to relax and chill as well as a decent gym/spa area. It is an easy walk down to the port (down hill so keep that in mind on the way back).

We had a terrific Wimbledon themes afternoon tea recently as part of my husbands birthday celebrations. I’m a big fan of afternoon tea and I think this is one of the best I have ever had. Every single item was beautifully prepare. The food was fresh and tasty and light but fulfilling. I really can’t fault it. The service was friendly and courteous with staff who clearly want their customers to have a good experience. The weather was perfect so we were able to eat out on the terrace. Once they know preps it was a birthday celebration a little birthday cake appear too. I really can’t recommend this treat highly enough.

In August 2022, Patrick K said about Firstcall
Firstcall is absolutely fantastic!! Josiah helped me find a job that fits my skills and interest. I had a wonderful experience from the beginning of my recruitment process all through to the end. Josiah was extremely helpful and always available to assist with every single thing that I needed. At the time when Josiah was away, Marcel stepped in and assisted in a seamless manner. When I finally relocated, Marcel took me for a cup of coffee and provided me with all the relevant information that would make my stay easy and fun. 10/10 service. I would 100% recommend Firstcall.

Overall an enjoyable stay but many improvements required. Restaurant staff - some of the staff service was slow and indicated. When my mum mentioned her scrambled eggs at breakfast had shell in them she got no apology, the waitress just took the plate away and didn’t offer to replace the food.
Generally no anticipation of customer need.
Restaurant chairs need rubber stoppers on the bottom of the feet as they are extremely noisy.
Sounding proofing in room 111 was terrible. I could hear the person in the room above me scraping the floor with their chairs at 3.00am four nights in a row.
Pool - strong smell of petrol when you are using the sunbed next to the wall to the right of the spiral staircase.
Lovely pool but water temperature should have been set a few degrees lower in anticipation of the very hot weather.
Overcharged by taxi driver for taxi to airport. Hotel reception could have warned us that rates are greater at weekends.
Reception were helpful in trying to source a facial.
Guernsey is a lovely island but very expensive. We found a lovely Italian restaurant in St Peter Port with very reasonable prices as hotel was very expensive to eat at every night.
Housekeeping- no turndown service in the bedrooms which was surprising for a 4 star hotel.
Saucers to the cups were dirty in my room and housekeeping stuff left their cleaning fluid and cloths in my room - sloppy service and lack of attention to detail.
I noticed some other reviewer mentioned the “Wilted Carnation” - would agree with that.
Maybe the owner of the group should come at stay as a mystery guest to see exactly what sort of service is being provided in the restaurant.
I have a background of working in hotels in London at 5 star level and this hotel was somewhat disappointing.
