A nice mini break in Guernsey, the weather was good to help. The hotel was excellent, as was the food and accommodation . We found it to be located well in St. Peter s Port also, as there are quite a few things to see.
We could not use the spa unfortunately as it was fully booked, so this needs to be booked beforehand.

What a superb hotel and location. Heated outdoor pool. Met at the airport. Champagne chocs and flowers in room. Very comfortable. The staff were chatty, friendly but always slick and professional. Dale seemed to do a bit of everything, remembered our names and was a wonderful ambassador for the hotel. Thank you all for a wonderful anniversary weekend.

We stayed here for 5 nights and the hotel is excellent and the service definitely 5 star, nothing is too much trouble, you are really made to feel welcome. The location is good although nothing is far away in this small island. The only criticism I would have, is that the beds are too hard. In a hotel of this standard I would expect to sink into a lovely soft but firm bed and this only had the firm aspect.

We didn't stay here, we attended a wedding. What a fantastic wedding it was. The food was lovely, the staff professional but friendly, the views were breath taking. A fabulous venue and a brilliant day.

we stayed here in the herm suite for our wedding and had our reception here. Firstly all I can say is positive things about the OGH.
The staff are wonderful and ensured our stay was comfortable and harry is a real credit to the hotel. He really made our day so special as he constantly asked if there was anything he could do for us and was more than happy to show us what the hotel had to offer.
The food was perfect and all of our guests really enjoyed their meals, everything was made to perfection and the whole day ran ever so smoothly. The staff were so attentive throughout the meal and remembered our names which really made our day.
The suite is beautiful with superb views from the balcony and flower petals on the bed, we were greeted with champagne and chocolates and a courtesy call making sure we were comfortable. our stay really was made so special. Again harry asked if we wanted to be shown where the heath club was and personally took us round the hotel for photographs.
our guests and I were really impressed with how friendly and welcoming the staff are and this really shone through our stay!!! The OGH definitely lives up to its slogan.
we will be certainly coming back!!!!

We loved everything about The Old Government House Hotel: our beautiful room with a balcony and sea view, the lovely public spaces and gardens, tea in the garden, piano music in the evening. What makes the hotel a stand-out, though, is the service. It is perfect. Special kudos to the concierge staff, especially Jaro, for making OGH and Guernsey a place we hope to return to! Not only is no request too much trouble but you are made to feel as if helping you gives the staff real pleasure. It's clear that the staff loves Guernsey and wants their guests to love it too. OGH is part of the Red Carnation group. I will definitely seek out their other hotels in my travels based on our stay at OGH.

We stayed for my brothers wedding, fantastic service from start to finish, very helpful staff. Room was comfortable with lovely decor. Dinner and breakfast was very good. Also a great location if you are visiting the island as it's right in the centre of town.

Stayed here on a tour of the Channel Islands in May. Hotel is beautifully appointed, service is attentive and personal and staff very obliging. Any request was dealt with effortlessly and efficiently. Being a part of the Red Carnation Group of hotels it fulfilled their high standards perfectly. Service and food in the restaurant and bar are great and the breakfasts were extensive and efficiently served. The walk from St Peter Port to the hotel up the hill through gardens offers lovely views over the harbour. We really enjoyed our stay.

My wife and I recently stayed for one week at The Duke of Richmond hotel.
The room that had been allocated to us was not really suitable for a stay of 7 days and, to be fair, the front of house manager, Jo, sorted things out very quickly and we moved to a bigger room.
Overall it is an excellent hotel with good, efficient and friendly staff. Breakfast was excellent and the several dinners that we had during our stay were also very good.

Went last Saturday with my daughter and grand-daughter for afternoon tea. It's been a long time since I've visited the hotel and what a lovely place.
Once seated in the airy and bright conservatory, we had ample time to choose which tea to order and the choice of teas (for a coffee drinker) was interesting. I choose the spiced apple, the others choose earl grey and fruity berry. It was a bonus to find that the teas were leaf and not any bagged varieties in sight! The waiter who brought the food explained what the sandwiches were and the nice selection of cakes plus scones, jam and clotted cream,. A very pleasant and relaxing afternoon, with perfect company. The staff were very attentive and friendly and the overall service was excellent.
I would definitely recommend a visit for the experience.
