I gave this hotel 4 stars only because the room they gave us was wonderful. For reasons unbeknown we got a lake front suite, which was truly grand. The building is impressive, a retro view of life 80 years ago. The food can best be described as only average, served by waiters from other countries. SOME OF THEM GAVE GREAT... More

On Mackinac Island, Michigan the Grand Hotel is not to be missed - elegant, elegant, elegant!! Our group enjoyed the buffet lunch and it was fantastic! The service was impeccable, the views from the Main Dining Room were breathtaking - a truly unique experience. If you close your eyes just for a moment in the lobby of The Grand Hotel... More

Don't be frightened by the cost of the hotel rooms at the Grand! You get so much more than a "room"....meals, entertainment, pool, hot tub, competitive shopping...wonderful! We never left the hotel as there was so much to do and see. We felt the hotel had more to offer than any other spot on Mackinac Island! We are going back... More

We stayed at the Grand Hotel for one night as part of a three night vacation with our twins (age 3) and son (age 7). The hotel was amazing. The entire property is very clean and very well maintained. The staff was amazing and whenever we were dining they took time to talk directly to our children and ask if... More

I have wanted to stay at the Grand Hotel for years. I recently had the opportunity to stay at the Grand. I was surprised to have a lakeview room which was more spacious than I would have thought. We enjoyed a cocktail on the Cupola Bar with fantastic views. Common areas were beautiful. Staff was super. Breakfast in the dining... More

Stayed at the Grand for 3 nights, from June 11-14, 2013. It was Our first time to Mackinac Island, so we decided to splurge on 3 nights at the Grand. It was everything we expected and more. From the time we checked in the staff was friendly and attentive. If you've seen the movie "Somewhere in time" and know anything... More

My daughter and I stayed for a mother-daughter treat. We took an early ferry over and rode up to the hotel in their charming carriage. Our room was on the second floor looking over the porch and lawn. It was decorated in cottage splendor so unlike any ordinary hotel room. There was a stocked refrigerator cleverly concealed in a cupboard,... More

Stayed for the weekend before the island gets overloaded and enjoyed the hotel /food and the beautiful grounds along with the swiming pool. Bring your own tennis balls if not you will pay double the average price. Great 5 course dinner. Need to wear suit jackets My sons had there own suit coats but we borrowed the hotel jackets with...

We just returned from a lovely stay at the Grand Hotel. It was just my husband and I this trip, but we have stayed with the kids before and they loved it. The pool was their favorite thing, and they really enjoyed the grounds as well. We got a fantastic family picture on the front porch with a gorgeous view... More
