One-of-a-Kind Accommodations

Just like every guest is different, so are the rooms at Grand Hotel. Each of our accommodations has been individually decorated, features a specific theme brought to life with colorful décor and furnishings, and is categorized by size, location, and view — be it views of the interior, The Jewel Golf Course, or the Straits of Mackinac.

Delectable Dining

From simple to elaborate, we offer an array of indoor and outdoor locations for dinners and receptions. Every meal is memorable thanks to the distinctly different menus and ambiances of our 14 restaurants and bars — and our most popular group rate is the Modified American Plan, which includes breakfast and dinner in our Main Dining Room.
