Fridge in room didn't work. Air con was a little temperamental. Room was nice and clean. Hotel lovely, if a little quiet.
I loved everything about this hotel. The location. The rooms. The amenities. The staff. Above and beyond. We had so much fun and loved the location so much.
Great location. Walking distance to all attractions, shops, and restaurants. Parking access on site very tight and limited. Breakfast was great. Rooms could stand updating.
The room size was perfect for a six night stay, room enough for 2 people to move about. Old world charming. Very convenient to the square in Old Town although loud outside on the weekend but it wouldn’t stop me from staying there again!. Staff were helpful.

Very good and to stay and near most of attraction. But when every time we come back to room we can smell carpet odors, moisture smell.
Great location. Breakfast was delicious with a lot of choices. There was a small gym with older equipment. Blackout curtains would have been appreciated. Overall a great choice
We had a lovely trip, the hotel was beautiful and in such a great location for the Christmas Market. We were extremely lucky that we had snow ! The room was spacious and had everything that that you would require. The breakfast that was included in the price was delicious, again had a lot of choice. We highly recommend , would definitely return

I brought my 8 year old niece for a weekend shopping trip. Grand is always safe. I must say that I found the butler and the man at the front desk to be very friendly. The hotel did not seem full and was very dark, both in the reception and restaurant. The room was clean and large, but only hot water in the shower and not in the sink.
Since we had two nights here, I thought it should have been addressed as soon as I pointed this out the first night. I can live with that, but it's still strange that it wasn't fixed.
We had a lovely time staying in this hotel/palace. Description of palace is only appreciated once you see the inside of this place.
Grand interiors with amazing corridors, our room had an incredibly high ceiling with equally high window, double entrance doors. It was well set out with plenty of surface areas and cupboard space. Room, bathroom and entire hotel was clean.
Breakfast buffet was plentiful and tasty.
Staff were ever present, always helpful but not intrusive.
English was not a problem at all.
Location was excellent.
Highly recommend Tradycyjne Polskie Smaki Restaurant across the road for Pirogis.
The Grand Hotel was wonderful. The people who worked there were kind and did their best to accommodate us. Very professional, very helpful. My experience is a little different as I am slightly physically disabled; I walk with a cane and have limited mobility. It never occurred to me to reserve a handicap accessible room and that was my mistake. The bathtub was very tall and it was difficult for me to step into it. When I asked for a different room with not so tall of a tub I was told that all the rooms had the same tub. They offered me a stepstool and a bathmat and that did help somewhat along with having my daughter help me in and out of the tub. I was impressed with the staff doing their best to help resolve this issue and how quickly they acted. When I did ask about changing to their accessible room, it was already booked. The room was beautiful and spacious; we had two twin beds and a daybed/couch, along with two comfortable chairs with a tall ceiling. Our room was cleaned daily and we had fresh towels each day too. Everyone we spoke with who worked at the hotel was professional and helpful and kind. Thank you Grand Hotel for your outstanding service and kindness.

The breakfast (pay extra) was very good and the staff at breakfast was great.
However we booked a room for 2 adults and 2 children - 4 person. We got to the room and it had a queen bed and a twin sofa (does not open up, just a single person sofa). I tried to call front desk / the phone did not work. I went down and said this is a 3-person room. The front desk person said (no, it’s a pullout 2 person sofa). I go upstairs and check with my husband and no, it’s a twin. Go back downstairs- at this point the front desk says - yes, you are right, it’s a twin. I asked for an extra bed rollaway. They say it will be brought up. I return from being around city with kids, no bed and they tell me sorry, we don’t have any and the manager said it’s ok for us to cuddle with one of our kids!!! What does this mean?!!!
We are tired so I say, ok, will it be available tomorrow and the front desk assures me yes.
Tomorrow is the same exact story.
I paid a good money for the hotel and they never apologized or reimbursed me for the hassle.
Really lousy service, the worst I experienced in Poland where all other places were great.
I am giving it 2 stars because of breakfast which was very good.

This is a 3 star, not 5 star hotel). Street noise, heat in room didn't work, bathroom floor got soaked during showers (half glass screen on bath), exercise room is a joke.
Second time at hotel and had a great stay, super service and food. Very helpful when we wanted to celebrate friends birthday. Highly recommended and we will return.

Wonderful hotel and staff. Superb
Breakfast, did not try a dinner due to a great temptation for puffier places to eat.
It was many years ago this hotel was 5 stars. Warn out and outdated. On a good day it could deserve 3 stars. Staff arrogant.
I will not go again. I should partly be refunded.

This is a beautiful hotel which could use some freshening up, particularly in the public areas. The central AC broke while we were there during an extremely hot day, but the staff was extremely helpful. Breakfast was very good, in an elegant space.
Beautiful hotels, good breakfast. Staff was very friendly and helpful! Bathroom and entry need updating. The shower is in the bathtub…It was slippery, and dangerous for people over 60! The front door was difficult to enter.
The hotel was in a great location, close to restaurants and shopping.
A welcoming and friendly hotel staff. Breakfast a bit limited but there was an option to ask which I didn't realise. A first class location within easy walking distance of most attractions. Thoroughly recommend.
