Everybody should do the Grand at least once in their lives. Put it on your bucket list. We just returned from a weekend stay and I miss it already. Every staff person that we encountered was friendly and polite. Sure it costs, but there is no tipping. The breakfasts and dinners are wonderful. Anything you need is brought to your... More

We were at the Grand Hotel Mackinac Island for Mothers day weekend. The room was large, as it fit four of us. It was adequate and clean. We did not make it to the welcome reception as our bags did not make it to our room until 5:30-6:00. I was a little upset at that. The next night they had... More

This was our second stay at Grand Hotel in less than 8 months. My wife & I adore everything about the atmosphere / culture at this facility, but two things really stood out on this visit: The wine sommelier - Adam Leemon. We spent less than 30 seconds describing the typical wines we like, and Adam made a recommendation that... More

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...
