Grand Hotel

The Asian themed bar outside the buffet was very good, and I'd highly recommend stopping there for a drink before the meal. The buffet itself was just okay for the price, and the service was adequate, nothing more. Still, it was interesting to watch the staff organize and seat the guests.

The evening dress code after 6:30 p.m. gave the stay a special feel. I was surprised that the kids were just as excited as the adults to dress up. The location is great and the staff are exceptional. If you're visiting Mackinac Island, this is definitely the place to stay.

After looking forward for years to visiting this hotel and having lunch, we finally made it, and I was so disappointed in the staff. Everyone we encountered was incredibly rude, except the woman who rang up our lunch before we went in. We felt unwelcome, even though we were paying good money for the experience and expected to be treated with respect. The place itself was so pretty, which makes it even sadder. We won't be back, and we'll tell everyone we know to avoid it.

I had lunch at the Grand Hotel buffet. The dining room was lively and beautifully designed, and the seating felt comfortable and inviting. There was a wide range of food, so it was easy to find something for everyone, and the food was excellent.
