The Old Government House Hotel & Spa

First time visit to Guernsey and we stayed at the OGH to celebrate my 60th birthday ( hubby was also 60 but at the beginning of June ) We stayed for 10 nights. we were welcomed with a glass of bubbles and shown around the hotel after booking in, our cases were sent up to our room ready for when we went up, the air con was lovely as very hot when we got there. The staff were all very helpful and a big shout out to “T” and Pamela, also thank you to the chef as Pamela asked him to speak to us about getting some spider crab, edible crab and whole fish as not on the menu which he did and it was lovely ( hopefully I can send some pics ). My birthday breakfast was brilliant, bunch of flowers on the table, some Buck’s Fizz and a bottle of champagne ( flowers ordered by hubby ) And lots of birthday wishes from all the staff. The food was excellent in the hotel and lots of tables in the gardens to sit in the shade or the sun with a cold glass of wine or a cocktail. Thank you Sianna for keeping us fed and watered while we lazed by the pool and made sure everyone had enough towels, also a cold glass of wine by the pool is a must.

A wonderful hotel and a great birthday stay - so welcoming. Room with a view and so comfortable

From the moment we arrived at the OGH we felt welcomed and truly relaxed. Our room, 111, was excellent, comfortable and spacious with perfect air conditioning which was so necessary as we were staying during the recent heatwave when Guernsey enjoyed its hottest day ever. All the OGH staff we encountered during our stay, whether in the restaurants, around the pool or just around the hotel in general were super friendly and accommodating. We reserved a gin tasting experience and this turned out to be a throughly enjoyable and enlightening experience. the bar tender who conducted the tasting, was knowledgeable and interesting to talk with, we definitely learned a few things to try out at home, we even bought one of the local gins included in the tasting from duty free at the airport. We will recommend the OGH to anyone we know thinking of taking a holiday in St Peter Port and we hope to return ourselves at some point.
