Attended our works dinner here a week since, superb meal & overnight venue.
Table set brilliantly and cleaned well after seating but before service, ie empty bar glasses and spent crackers/hats/ novelties etc, a good minor point but noticeable.
Foods came swiftly, hot, plentiful and very tasty. Well beyond any level of mass function catering I’ve experienced before. All on our table commenting on portion size, quality and temperature of foods served.
Staff a bit swift on clearing glasses and even removed a fresh large G&T we’d jusreplenished, however it was soon replaced with an apology by the waitress without any hesitation or debate when pointed out, an honest mistake.
The bedroom was their entry level, very clean, very well stocked and quite lush in furnishings, loads of mirrors and shiny bits, quality bedding and curtains, a little cramped but the only downside and we were only overnighters anyway so livable.
Hope to be back next year, loved it, thank you.

My husband, myself and our son stayed in the 2 bedroom garden apartment for a week over Christmas. We arrived to find a beautifully decorated Christmas tree in the lounge room which was so thoughtful. Canapes were delivered to the apartment each evening with a smile and little extras appeared from time to time. The apartment itself was well appointed, very comfortable bed, quiet surrounds, equipped with a small kitchen, everything a family would need. The main standout though was the exemplary service from the staff. We were made to feel special and any request was met with genuine helpfulness and friendliness. The chef even created a special dish for our breakfast. Highly recommended.

From the moment you arrive you know you’re going to enjoy your visit. The staff are warm and welcoming and the service is fantastic. The decor is elegant with a lovely modern feel to it.
The food in the restaurant is exceptional and clearly making the most of local produce. The fish pie is simply the best I’ve ever had, contemporary in design yet with that feeling of comfort food.
To top it all off, I was treated to a lovely surprise when the staff found out it was my birthday.
Thank you to all of you who made my visit so enjoyable.

This was a one night stop during a business trip and I wished I could have stayed longer. Charming old school type hotel. Room is comfortable with a view, bar area nice and an excellent breakfast menu.

First trip to Guernsey and can’t rate this hotel highly enough. The service and quality was second to none. Only a 1 night stay but wished I could have stayed longer. Staff are really quite extraordinary. Friendly, professional and can’t do enough for you. If you are going to Guernsey, this is the hotel to stay at, great location too.

Our planned short stay of two nights at OGH was unfortunately cut short by 50% because of bad weather. And consequently we missed the celebratory purpose of our visit. However, the service we received at the hotel was exemplary and breakfast in the brasserie, both as to food and service, excellent. I chose the continental option from the buffet and my wife the full English. And the view of the islands beyond - the visibility had fortunately cleared by then - provided a wonderful backdrop.
We didn't have dinner at the hotel as we met a group of friends elsewhere in Town but mention must be made of the unfailing assistance given to us by the young Frenchman at the door.
Our only criticism was that our room seemed rather "tired" and that it was a bit small. But on the plus side it was only for one night and we were generously only charged for one night, not the two we had booked. Thank you to all at OGH for putting a smile on our faces a during a weekend that otherwise had its disappointments!

Stayed in a sea view room with a balcony, which gave us an incredible view over the harbour and out to Herm. The reason for 4 stars and not 5 was the bathroom, which was ridiculously small with a bizarre set up requiring you to almost step over the toilet to get into the shower/bath. We thought that it would have been difficult for anyone with slight mobility issues to have actually used the shower at all. The room although small was lovely and the views were stunning. The spa was lovely with a wide range of treatments available and staff who were well trained and attentive.

I have only good to say about our stay. Everyone on the staff went out of their way to
make us comfortable,and took of every possible need.
It was as if we were the most important people in the hotel.
The room was fantastic. Very clean and well taken care of.
The staff was helpful ay every moment, asking us if we needed anything before we could ask.
we were overwhelmed, since we never had this in any other hotel ( and we have traveled widely)
