Hotel Grand Victorian

10/10 Excellent
"We were really impressed with this hotel! First, the outside is very classy and welcoming. It is within walking distance of the mountain coaster, a Denny's, Walmart, and Krispy Kreme. The lobby is comforting with cozy furniture and the upstairs area has checkers. The front desk process was efficient. Our room was perfect for our stay with plenty of pillows and towels, adequate space, a strong air conditioner, and even a complimentary bottle of wine. There was also a mini-fridge, microwave, hairdryer, soap, and cabinet space. The breakfast buffet had a lot of good options including waffles, sausage, fresh fruit, baked goods, potatoes, and eggs. Everything seemed clean and everyone was friendly. The indoor pool and hot tub were great. Parking was close to the front door and free. Next time we are in Branson, we will be back!"
