From the moment my wife and I arrived at OGH and were greeted by Roberto and Kris who made us feel at home immediately. Nothing was too much trouble and our room was fantastic with views over the harbourside. I couldn't recommend The Old Government House enough.

Great location in St Peter’s Port. Good pool and outdoor area. The best part was the outstanding staff. All of them were very accommodating and friendly. Christina was exceptional she remembered everything you asked for, constantly smiled and a delight to be around. World class service. The hotel does need some updating and that is being addressed, however the hotel is immaculate, great breakfast choices and a very relaxing place to take a break.

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.
