Booked by www and chosen for the location and character. It was full of intrigue right from the first approach thru a back alley to the 'interesting' car park and into the back entrance of the Le Grand where a tired, sad unused fountain greeted us. The staff were wonderful considering they were working for a large hotel that had... More

The Service is what really made my stay. The rooms are clean, tidy and spacious but the staff were outstanding. Everyone smiled and acted friendly in a sincere way. I got the feeling that everyone truly believed that their happiness and courtesy would affect my stay in a positive way. I booked through Wotif.com and was upgraded to a Deluxe... More

I booked my night at Le Grand through a travel agent, so I had no idea what to expect when I arrived. My last experience in Hamilton overnight, wasn't the greatest. And I thought, since the V8's were on, it would definitely be a good idea to book a quiet room. When I arrived, the first impressions were ones of... More

I had the pleasure of staying at this hotel during my recent visit to Hamilton and have no hesitation recommending it to others. The location in the centre of town meant we had many of the towns shops, restaurants and tourist spots close by. The rooms were certainly "grand" and very generous in size and not overpriced. We thoroughly enjoyed... More

We stayed at this hotel over the Easter long weekend. We had a wonderful stay. The hotel itself is right in the middle of town, so close to everything! The hotel staff were really friendly and the rooms were beautiful. Huge high ceilings and big rooms. What a great place! We will definitely be back when we return to Hamilton. More

This "old Lady" of a hotel is situated right in the middle of the restaurant strip of Hamilton so you have many dining choises at your door step and it's close to the lovely riverside walk along the banks of the Waikatoe River. The deluxe rooms are very generous in size if somewhat sparsly furnished. The bathrooms are also very... More

I stayed at this hotel for a conference last week and thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The hotels location couldn’t get any better. Its right amongst everything, the best shopping, restaurants and Casino. The hotel is a grand old building that has been beautifully restored. Staff were really nice and welcoming. I will be recommending to all my clients and friends. More

Le Grand is perfectly located on the main street, restaurants and bars are literally on your doorstep. The building fits the hotel name, beautiful high ceilings, wide halls and sitting rooms throughout the character hotel. When I entered my HUGE bedroom I was in awe. It was amazing, desk in a bay window, bathroom with elevated bath, high ceilings and... More

Thank you for your feedback regarding your recent stay at Le Grand Hotel. I was very pleased to read that you liked the layout and style of your room. Unfortunately as we are an inner-city Hotel some road noise can be expected outside of our control. We are currently working with the Heritage Trust for double glazing on our windows... More

For an old building which should have a lot of charm this hotel is very average! Very noisy, kept awake most of the night by street noise! The rooms are do big the furniture seems to get lost in the room! All in all I thought I was in the hotel from the movie 'The Shining' More
