I love this place, the staff are great, Lori and Micheal, thank you very much!!
I am disabled and have been coming to the Grand for the last 6 years, each year we are met as if we were family, everyone bends over backwards to help us.
We have always been made to feel as if we are special, ok I've had the wrong room once, because I'm disabled, but it was changed without any fuss at all.
The staff at the bar are great and I for one love them all.
Sallie Morley. PS Be back to see you all soon xxxxxx
58 year old male with a luxury budget, traveling for leisure
On The weekend of July 25 – 28, my wife and I stayed at The Grand Plaza Hotel in St. Pete Beach to celebrate a very special occasion. At Check in we were greeted by Robin (a very sweet young lady), who immediately made us feel at home. We were assigned to room number “800”, a room with a partial ocean view. We went to the room and everything was beautiful, clean, a very nice view of the Ocean and the Bay. We went back to the front desk to see if we could see a room on the other side of the hotel. Robin was unavailable so we spoke with BJ who was most accommodating. We mentioned that it was a very special occasion and we wanted to be just right. He gave us a key to a room on the other side of the hotel so that we may view and decide which room we would prefer (he did say that in his opinion we had one of the best rooms in the house). After checking the room on the other side of the hotel, we realized that BJ was right; room number “800” had a much better view. Ten minutes after going to our room, someone knocked on the door; BJ had sent up a complimentary bottle of Champagne so that we may celebrate our very special occasion. Every time we passed by the front desk, Robin, BJ and other staff members would ask if everything was Ok and if there was anything they could do for us.
On the evening of the last day of our stay, we had dinner at Spinners. The attention by the restaurant staff was incredible, I brought with me a Music CD with a special song I wanted to play for my wife, I spoke with the Manager and he had no problem in interrupting his music program so that he can play the special song for my wife. The views from the spinning restaurant are incredible, the prices are not outrageous, and it is quite an experience; definitely worth it.
In summary: Days after I made my reservations, I came very close to cancelling because of negative reviews I read on the internet; I’m glad I did not cancel. I don’t know who these people are who posted the negative reviews, I don’t even know if they stayed at the same hotel. The rooms are very comfortable and clean, the bathrooms are adequate, nice private balcony, beautiful sunset views, and best of all, the service and attention from the staff is super. Our experience was Tops; we definitely will return and recommend to others.
