Hotel details

Great Location and Price

This is my second time staying at this hotel and I've enjoyed myself each time. The hotel is within walking distance of ... Church Street area where there is a ton of nightlife. The art work is very interesting, the room was spacious and the decor is very chic and impressive (loved the velvet couch). The only complaint I had was waiting 20 minutes for my car from valet. This hotel is a good couples spot.

A Wonderful Surprise!

I was in Orlando for business and pleasure. This hotel is easy to get to and has amazing restaurants close by to eat in. ... The hotel is decorated with such good taste and does not look or feel like your ordinary hotel. From the moment you pull in, the staff is exceptional and the hotel lobby is great from the flooring to the zebra fabric covered chairs. The bar and piano bar were a definite bonus and the music was wonderful. The rooms were comfortable and beautiful with great bedding. The pool area was probably my favorite. Perfect place to watch an afternoon storm and swim laps in the evening. This was probably one of the best hotel experiences I have had. Definitely will be back!

Great and Expensive

This hotel is wonderful. The staff is very helpful and courteous. The whole building is very well cared for. Now for ... the not so great....It is very expensive, and justifiably so. However, it is not the cost of the room or restaurant that is of issue. In each room there is a mini-bar..Contained within this mini-bar are sodas and various alcoholic beverages. When you remove and item from the fridge a sensor detects that you moved the beverage and automatically OVERCHARGES you for the item. A 12oz Coke is something like $5. On top are Pringles and Gummi Bears and a full assortment of snacks. The Gummi bears for instance are $7. Rule of thumb, bring your own snacks. I do realize that the bulk of individuals staying in a hotel like this, could care less about the cost of these small items and relish the convenience. I take another perspective altogether...it is gouging. On behalf of the hotel the pricing of the items could be easily found in one of two places (and was no hidden or anything). Additionally, overnight valet parking which is the hotel's only offering is $20 per night. If you don't mind walking about a block you can park elsewhere in downtown Orlando for about $12/night. Clearly, parking with the hotel makes the most sense, but is absorbedly priced. To top it all off my wife made two one minute phone calls to my cellphone that cost $16.00. But all hotels rip you off on phone calls. Overall, my wife and I were very satisfied with our stay...I just hate to feel like someone is taking advantage of me. I need to make it clear though, that in spite of these gripes this is an exceptional hotel that is worthy of commendation. Their true asset is the people on staff.

The hotel staff was extremely courteous and friendly. The Sunday jazz brunch was delightful; but be forewarned: it is ... expensive ($54/person) and there are very limited breakfast options offered. Nonetheless, if you are in the mood to treat yourself as well as to kick back, relax and enjoy nice background music, this was a worthwhile treat.

Perfect vacation hotel

If you like art and music, an exemplary staff, fine dining and walking to nearby parks and museums - this is the place for ... you! We were stunned by the art collection in this hotel and the art case Bosendorfer piano in the music room - staying inthis environment is well worth the price!! The rooms were extremely clean and comfortable with curtains that totally and completely darken the room so you can sleep in! Every member of the staff was warm and extremely personable. We enjoyed the food tremendously with the exception of the some of the breakfast: the table settings were elegant, the service charming, the toast and jam were perfect, the coffee delicious, but the scrambled eggs and potatoes were much like you would find at Perkins. We took the concierge level room and found the continental breakfast small but really fresh and most pleasant. I thought I objected to the valet parking only at $20 day (not including tips) until I realized that I loved the ease of just getting out of the car! The car-park team was delightful and a true pleasure to work with. This is a property we will definitely visit again. Their attention to detail and effort to make their guests feel welcomed was inspiring - as is everything about this hotel!

The hotel made the week-end!

I checked into the hotel for a wedding week-end and the hotel made the week-end. It was fantastic, great bed, beautiful room ... and perfect downtown location. It had one of the best hotel lounges that I I have ever been in, bartenders Julio, Mark and Ivey were a joy. I can't wait to back.

Great for Business Travelers

fawzia Feb 16, 2008

The Gran Bohemian was a nice hotel, the experience overall was not too bad. I think the they over sold the art as the museaum ... was quite small not bigger then the Starbucks next door which was nice to have. They had a 6th floor area where you could go and sit outside by the pool though it was closed off one day I was there to a reception. The food was not that great via room service but walk a few blocks and there are restaurants near by. The rooms are nice. For the business traveler this is a great location.

beautiful hotel with lots of issues

celso Sep 9, 2007

The Grand Bohemian is a beautiful upscale hotel in downtown Orlando. The bar and restaurant are trendy and very hip. There ... is an impressive collection of art throughout the hotel's public spaces. It is very romantic and ideal for couples. The room was spaciouos with two queen beds that were quite comfortable. The bathroom however had a non functioning toilet which required two visits from maintance. The hair dryer cord was frayed and clearly a fire hazard. There was plenty of renovation work being done at the hotel with noise throughout the day. The corridor to our room was full of dust and construction material (i.e. floor tiles, spakle etc.). Perhaps after all the renovations are complete this hotel can live up to the 4-5 star reputation it boasts.

The Grand Bohemian is a pearl in a sea of urban surroundings. The hotel staff is friendly, cordial and quick to help. The ... concierge helps without being stuffy and makes sure you are satisfied with your requests. It doesn't matter if you stay 1 night or 7; you are made to feel special and cared for. Definitely a twothumbs up.
