This was such a special experience, service exemplary and food was amazing.
We are not normally big fish eaters but we were definitely converted with the well thought-out and special dishes

Just a fabulous experience from start to finish. Kirsty is perfect as front of house and Dave an amazing chef. Such delicious creations, a harmony on the pallet. A must visit in Gorey.

This is our first trip to Jersey but won't be our last and we will definitely be back to the Bass and Lobster. The menu and food were outstanding. All beautifully presented (we don't usually take photos of our food but felt we had to take a shot of our starters) our main course burgers were outstanding with a wonderful Plum Bakewell and huge range of homemade ice creams as our choice of desserts. The staff are fun and friendly and work so hard as a small team but nothing is too much trouble. Well done for weathering the Covid storm and we hope to visit again some time soon. Thank you so much.

Spent 4 nights here and what a wonderful choice we made. From the minute we arrived we were made most welcome. Our classic room was well equipped and a real bonus with water supplied as complimentary.
Breakfasts were truly scrumptious being part continental and the hot meal cooked to order. Could not fault anything.
We had dinner one evening in the restaurant as we were celebrating a big anniversary and birthday rather late (due to Covid) and the chateaubriand was the best we had ever eaten. The staff were so attentive. I could have got used to living like a Lady there. Compliments to the chef.
No wonder the Red Carnation chain has done well in the Travel industry awards. Everything about them is first class.
Would love to return there again. Thank you Gareth and team.

We have stayed at this hotel previously and were glad this time of a five-night break in lovely autumn sunshine. It is an elegant building, well maintained and very comfortable. The walls in the public rooms are adorned with a huge array of fine artwork. The gym/spa was good, although the facility closed early at weekends, and there is a heated outdoor pool with loungers and plenty of fresh towels on the paved area around the pool. Our room was 'bijou' but very well equipped and with a fabulously-comfortable six-foot bed. Dining was very good - we ate dinner in the hotel twice and enjoyed amazing breakfasts each morning with everything cooked to order. We were able to take breakfast outside on the terrace on some occasions. Service was clearly under some pressure because of Covid and staff vacancies, but it did not in any way become an issue for us and we were looked after very well. The head waiter, Allesandro, deserves a special mention for his professionalism. There is a cosy bar which was great for nightcaps. We did find it strange, however, that a 'Hooray Henry' guest who was aware that drinks were, quite rightly, not served in glass around the pool persuaded staff to serve him and his partner poolside drinks in glasses, and then later boasted about his ability to get round the rules. That rule is there for a very good reason and should not be breached.

We absolutely loved our weekend in St Peter Port, and the OGH was perfect! From the moment we walked through the door, we were made to feel extremely welcome. The building is beautiful and the staff are amazing. So many whose names I can’t recall but who were wonderful and made our stay so special (although Alessandro was particularly fantastic, and Roberto & Renato). Room was small but beautifully decorated with wonderful fittings and details - the most comfortable bed with gorgeous linen; it was a real treat to stay here. The restaurant was lovely & we had two fabulous evening meals with god wine and excellent service; breakfasts wonderful, sat outside on the terrace with a view out over the sea. Perfect location, just a 5 minute stroll down to the old town centre and the port area. First class luxury. We’ll be back next year for another break!

The high ratings are justified. We had 2 standard rooms - although anything but 'standard'. Spotlessly clean & super comfortable. Efficient & friendly check-in. Reception staff always friendly & helpful. The car parking spaces are on a first-come-first-served basis & for a £10 deposit, the receptionist gave us the card-clock for the car.
Guernsey island parking - an oddity. Roads/areas around the island are designated a time parking is permitted - free from 6pm to 8am, but restricted during the day in hours stated. You have to put a clock in the window of the time you arrive & your stay is determined by the number of hours on the sign. We found a road that gave a parking time of 10 hours so effective free 24hrs.
Breakfast was superb. As was the Leopard restaurant where we had one evening meal.
The pool looked inviting but we didn't use it -
The only thing to be aware of is it's a steep walk up from the high street - at least 15mins slowly.

In September 2021, Pubcat said about Doghouse, The
I came here for the live music and had booked a table for dinner. The menu was more interesting than most of Guernsey's pubs. The meals were excellent. Staff rushed from serving behind the bar to waiting tables, but were on top of everything. They were friendly and helpful and the service was great. Sky football highlights were on, but muted. A range of recorded music played at a moderate level: mostly rock, plus a lot of 50s rock & roll. Just before ten the band came on. They weren't the UK Oasis tribute as billed, but they were entertaining enough. For a Saturday night live music experience with a decent meal, it was great. The pub/restaurant would be good to visit on any day. I'd go again on my next visit to Guernsey for sure.

Marcel was brilliant to work with. He is not only professional and knowledgeable, but he is also kind and makes you feel like you are more than just a job placement, you’re a person looking for your perfect work family. Marcel always understood that although I am a dedicated professional who loves my career, I am also a mom and that is the most important part of my life. Marcel connected me with an employer who not only understands that but who respects it. It is refreshing to have worked with someone like Marcel who understands that we spend half our life in the office, so finding “the perfect one” when it comes to a profession and employer is very important.
They are after all our family away from home. Marcel has an aptitude for striving to satisfy the client and delivered on what he promised. I would highly recommend Marcel as your career adviser.
