Natchez Grand Hotel

I've stayed here before but it's too expensive now and then for the old southern charm of Natchez, Mississippi. It may be gorgeous on the exterior and free parking is a plus, but this hotel lacks amenities. It also lacks a warm and friendly staff. A (black) employee accused a friend staying with me of stealing food when I was right there in front of them and my friend offered to pay. He became emotionally agitated and the employee called my friend a "cracker." It would take a great deal of compassion and "freebies" in order for us to stay at this racist management of a hotel again. The morning we were checking out, house keeping came around and knocked on our door (room 321) not once...not twice...FOUR TIMES (when the door not disturb) tag was on the door handle. We had reserved for a late check-out previously though we had checked out much earlier thanks to the extremely rude staff. I've been to Natchez alot and stayed at several hotels. This will be the last.

The wine tasting was nice. The room was very comfortable, but I expected a nicer bathtub... Room overlooked the river.

Location, Location, Location--this hotel has it. Very historic hotel in a historical setting. Nice linens on the bed. Nice breakafst in the beautiful dining room.

great experience. Very convenient to all Natchez, Ms. Activities. We were able to walk to the Crew of Phoenix Mardi Gras Ball, and did not have to wait for car parkers or valet parking. Good hot breakfast was included, AND we were greeted with a complimentary glass of wine upon arrival. Great view of the river, We will be returning soon to enjoy the Natchez Antiques Forum once again! In the Fall.

Clean, comforable, quite place would definitly recommend it.

The staff was very friendly. The room was nice and clean. And considering that we stayed Saturday night only the price was very good! Would recommend to anyone.

The location of the hotel makes it convenient to maneuver around the city sights. The highlight of the hotel is the included breakfast which is ample even though the menu does not vary. The staff was hospitable and accommodating.

Just a plain hotel at a higher cost... The staff is not the friendliest, but things were fairly clean. You have to pay $7.95 a night when you check in, but the breakfast this pays for stops at 9 am so don't sleep in. Housekeeping also starts knocking on the door at 8 am trying to clean the room.

I used to live in Natchez and knew the general consensus that The Grand was the best place to stay other than a B&B. The lobby is welcoming, the staff, however mostly are not. The woman who checked us in couldn't put her cell phone down long enough to answer my questions and was quite rude. Breakfast was ok. I expected better quality knowing the caliber of food offered in Natchez, but it was not to be, either of the mornings we ate. We went to Bowies, right across the street, for a meal late on Thursday night (grill night). I had a huge grilled chicken salad that was good and their interpretation of bruscetta (garlic cheese bread with chopped tomatoes baked on it). The place was open to get the breeze off the river, but if you are opposed to sharing your meal with the million bugs that came in those doors, it may not be the place for you. Make sure to eat at Mammy's for lunch if you can and please sample the cornbread and coleslaw at the restaurant across from the hotel on the river side it's name ends with "of the Walk" [...] The Pig Out Inn and Fat Mama's are also good. Firm mattresses! Oh and for the LGBT travelers, the area is typical of the deep south, just saying.

Hotel and staff were wonderful. However, on check out there was an extra 'amenity' fee charged per day. She couldn't tell us what exactly was the amenity, but if it was the huge breakfast they served every morning then OK!
