We were there with family last summer and had a wonderful time. Our package included dinner and breakfast and both meals were wonderful and staff was very friendly. Kids enjoyed the pool and horse carriage rides. Our room was a little far and small. We did not expect the luggage to take as long as it did to arrive to... More

Six of us traveled to Mackinac Island after having been there many years before. Memories of the Grand Hotel as a very special place brought us all back there. Since we were only on the island for the day and thus not registered guests, we had to pay a ten dollar admission fee to even enter the hotel. We wanted... More

I stayed at the Grand Hotel as part of a women's retreat. My group had 3 rooms, We sent all the registrations together so were received the same time. The other 2 rooms had lake views, one of the rooms had a balcony. My room was an interior room that had a view of the roof. The room was very... More

My husband and I recently had an opportunity to celebrate the 125th anniversary of The Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island. We came away amazed at the reception, the accomodations, and the service we received! The Barbara Bush presidential suite was plush and comfortable with a view of the Mackinac Bridge right from our bed!! The meals at the Grand are... More

I travelled to the Grand with my husband and our one year old for her birthday and for mother's day. there are a few things that I read in other reviews that I want to mention. Quality of rooms - they aren't 5 star by any means. But they're clean and in an 'old fashioned' theme. By no means would... More

I was fortunate enough to go on this trip with my mother, and sister in-law and her mother for the Mother's day weekend special. We left from Shepplers dock in Mackinac city, Where we were greeted like long lost friends when we pulled into the parking lot, before we could get out of the car someone was standing there waiting...

The Grand Hotel gives you the experience of a Grand Hotel of the 1880's but with updated ammenities. The Grand Hotel is located on Mackinac Island, reachable only by ferry or charted plane. Mackinac Island forbids motor vehicles, instead relying on equine transportation by beautiful horses and carriges. This says it all about the Grand Hotel itself. The overall experience... More

The worst thing about a stay at the Grand Hotel, is that I have to check out and go home at the end! We have stayed as a couple on three separate occasions, and each time outshines the visit before. We also lengthen our stay each time we go. We came yesterday from a week-long vacation, which began with the... More

I brought my middle school band to the Grand Hotel as part of Corporate Travel's "Discovery at the Grand" program, May 7-8. From the moment we stepped onto the property, my group was treated like royalty. Many of my students had never stayed in a hotel, let alone The Grand Hotel, and they were floored by this magnificient hotel. The... More
