We liked the room but didn’t get offered a bassinet with our room, staff didn’t like being there at all. Hotel was clean, bath tub was really good. We had an infant and it was not very included, the room came with just two towels and as mentioned no bassinet. Parking situation is crazy, $35 for every time you leave the car park. But again, room was really nice. Spacial and comfortable, felt good going there after a long way of walking.

We have been to the Grand Hotel a few times now and have enjoyed every stay. Staff are courteous and helpful. The hotel is clean and has a pleasant and relaxed vibe. Our room is always clean and well presented. Parking is much cheaper than competitor hotels nearby. Has all the amenities you might need - pool, spa, sauna, gym, multiple restaurants and bars.
