Exceptional staff.
The staff were exceptional - no request was too great and everything was done with a manner of being absolutely pleased to be of service to you. Particular mention should go to Roberto, the head concierge. We felt completely at home and our little dachshund was treated like a Princess by the staff. Just a wonderful stay and we would definitely come back again.

What I liked most about this truly excellent hotel was the fact that the staff were excellent, and in addition looked happy and fulfilled in their work. This is the sign of first class management. High standards were maintained, but none of the staff appeared stressed, and someone always noticed if something was needed , and supplied it without fuss. Very well done to all concerned.

We thought the staff were amazing and nothing was to much trouble, the rooms were spacious and bed and pillows comfy, also kept clean and tidy daily with nightly treat of chocolates or biscuit on the turned down bed by housekeeping. Swimming pool was great too, which we used several times on our 4 night 5 day stay. We were a little disappointed with the menu on a Saturday night (10 August 2024) in The Brasserie as it was not an outstanding choice to choose from and not the best meal for a top restaurant we have experienced, also on the pricey side with a service charge added which was optional but we paid but on reflection felt this should not be applied for paying guests @ OGH Hotel but applicable to non residents visiting the same restaurant (The Brasserie) Overall an enjoyable experience.

The accessible room is difficult to access and it’s a great challenge to out of the room. I couldn’t turn round the mobility scooter in the room. The room vibrated all day and evening. That was irritating and incredibly uncomfortable. The lifts were a very tight fit. Several times we had Issues with the lifts.

From the moment my Wife and I arrived outside the hotel, we were made to feel warmly welcomed by the hotel team. The additional touches that I had requested were all in the room waiting for us that made our stay extra special. The sea view King room was absolutely stunning with a view over St Peter Port. That linked to the spa facilities were fantastic. My Wife and I will definitely be travelling back to the hotel in the not too distant future.

Our stay at OGH was great,we felt totally pampered the whole time. All the staff were very attentive and polite but especially Kris Raggoo- the manager who was exceptional,nothing was too much trouble. Breakfasts were amazing,light lunches too- unfortunately however dinner was pricey and disappointing. That said- this hotel is excellent,we would definitely recommend it.

All the staff were very lovly, unfortunately i wouldn't rate this property as 5 star as its very warn and rough round the edges,. When we got to pur room 101 my husband ran a bath, the water was brown and had black bits floating around, we called house keeping and for the next 30 mins it was still not clear, so a guy on reception kindly moved us to a room where the water was clean. The food in the restaurant was excellent and staff very nice, wouldn't stay the night again, but would eat in the restaurant.

Having stayed at OGH on several occasions it was noticeable that the bedrooms are getting tired and in need of an upgrade, especially in view of the prices. We had brown water appearing from the hot water which was bad enough to stain a white flannel brown and the pull cords on the curtains no longer functioned. There was a large black chip in the bath enamel and the mastic around the bath needs repairing. However the staff, service and the lounge, dining room and bar areas were excellent.
