The location we stayed in (courtyard cabins) was 1 block from main street, and 2 blocks from the lake. They were having a slow weekend and upgraded us to their nicest cabin since we had a friend coming up to stay for the weekend. The staff were SO helpful, friendly, and the customer service was great. We were impressed by... More

The Western Riviera is probably the best you can do in this town. There's good reason to go to this side of the National Park, but its not for the accommodations, the food, the lake, or the town atmosphere. The Riviera is more like an old style motel than anything else. The rooms are old and tired, the view is... More

Yes, the rooms need updating, but they are clean and comfortable. It really is a great place to stay in Grand Lake. Tracy in the office is very nice and helpful, offering great suggestions for meals and activities. The view of the lake from your room is amazing! You can walk anywhere in town quickly and easily from this location.... More

Walk out your door onto a nice deck and look right out at the Deepes natural lake in Colorado! There are amazing pictures at every time of the day! The owners are friendly, Grand Lake Folks. They love to get to know their guests and visitors, as do all the merchants in this quaint lovely place. We come to Grand... More

This hotel is very close to Rocky Mountain National Park. We found Grand Lake to be very enjoyable and the hotel is within walking distances to resturants. As other reviewers have noticed the rooms are dated, however they are clean and after hiking all day that is all that really matters. More

We stayed here for a night while travelling through the mountains. The hotel is perfectly situated right on the edge of Grand Lake - a really beautiful location. Upon arriving I was a little disappointed with the room. It seemed in desperate need of an update with tired looking furniture, bed and carpets. Normally this wouldn't have bothered me, but... More

We stayed here for a quick weekend getaway based on the rave reviews here. The location was excellent, right on the main street and with a perfect view of the lake. We were definitely disappointed with the room and outdated furniture and amenities. As on review states, it's like a dorm room for $130+/night. At that price, you'd expect a... More

The hotel was in a lovely position overlooking the lake and near the centre of the town. We had a room on the second floor and this gave us a lovely view when sitting on the balcony. The room was very good with a refrigerator and microwave and whilst there was no breakfast- which we knew when booking, it was... More
