Firstcall Recruitment are fantastic. I had both Josiah and Marcel as my recruitment consultants and they were very helpful and were able to help guide me in the right direction. They were available at any point to assist with any questions I had. Marcel helped me secure a position, which I am very excited to start.
I would highly recommend Firstcall.

We went their to watch a “ Guns N Roses “ tribute act which were really good. The pub is famous for bringing tribute acts over and you can get food as well.
The food is fine not gourmet but you are ready their to see the bands.

Nicki has been incredibly helpful and patient whilst our original honeymoon plans changed due to the pandemic. She helped us rearrange things and was always contactable to reassure us.

We had an exceptional lunch with friends from the three course set menu today. The starters in particular were excellent. The dessert choices are limited but the range of flavours of home made ice cream make up for it.

FAB! FAB! FAB!
We have been fortunate enough to travel to every Continent in the world and have experienced many types of hotel accommodation, staff and locations....and, here in Guernsey, the OGH has to rate among the best of the best!
We were actually a day late arriving at OGH as, due to "inclement weather" we couldn't sail from Jersey (our Christmas away from home venue) to Guernsey the evening before....
Our weary travel-worn selves were very warmly greeted by Jack at reception....and he pointed us in the direction of the (rather difficult to negotiate) car park and sent Stewart (Concierge?) around to help us in with our (endless!) luggage...
We had, early for us (7.30am), a pleasant breakfast in the hotel and then crashed out for a couple of (much needed!) hours catch-up sleep....
We enjoyed a beautifully appointed room with a sea view....
We noticed that, if requested, a mini fridge could be bought to the room...and, pretty much, only 5 minutes after our request, the very obliging Stewart had lugged one up for us...what a star!
The hotel is literally only a few minutes down the hill to the main shopping/restaurant etc area....
This was a very pleasant surprise as the hotel feels "at a distance" from the rest of the world!...only a good thing!!
All the staff were a joy to meet (Jack and reception staff in particular) and nothing appeared to be too much trouble for this friendly, professional team
We were fortunate enough to meet the General Manager (Andrew) who is charm personified ....
I mention this as I/we believe it was Andrew who sanctioned our request for a late check out....but then went that step beyond...
We were not due to sail back to the UK until 22.25 hrs that evening....and we were permitted to stay "until we needed to leave"...ie. approx 21.00 hrs!...that's some "late check out, eh? (at no extra cost btw!)
AND....before we left, reception called up tp ask if we would like a "food parcel" to take with us for our journey home to the UK!....how kind, how thoughtful...we accepted, of course....
Roberto (lovely , charming man from Sicily) bought it out to our car as we were leaving the hotel... it was absolutely delicious and most welcome!
Whilst this latter part of the review is not necessarily about the hotel I have written it to use as an example of the way the management and staff really do care about and value their guests!
If I lived in Guernsey this would become my second home....as I don't live in Guernsey I/we just dream to return!
Well done one and all!
FIVE STARS without hesitation!

In January 2022, Chris Le Gallez said about Old Government House Hotel & Spa
I believe this is the first time I have ever eaten here, I have attended weddings and meetings in the past. I had forgotten how elegant and classy this hotel is. We had a couple of drinks at the bar,before being shown to out table. Unfortunately the restaurant was quiet,probably due to the current situation. I ordered the Chicken pate and the main dish of Ribeye, The service level was excellent,the food was really good,and the wine was just right. This was a really special evening out, it’s fine dining at one of Guernsey’s top hotels.

Josiah and the whole team at Firstcall were absolutely fantastic in helping me find my desired role. I feel very lucky to have had their support and it has been brilliant to find an agency that genuinely wants you to progress and succeed in your professional career. They ensured I was updated at every stage of the entire recruitment process. Josiah spent lots of time with me prior to my interviews, going through possible interview questions in as much detail as possible to make sure that I was adequately prepared. Throughout the process, Josiah was always available to answer any questions and make sure that everything went smoothly. Many thanks to Josiah and the team for such brilliant services! Would highly recommend them.
