Grand View Hotel

What guests think

At Grand View Hotel, travelers consistently praise the sweeping ocean views from balcony rooms and the convenient spot across from Long Sands Beach, while also noting very clean spaces and friendly, accommodating staff throughout their stays.

Many rooms have been recently updated, but the older building means no elevator and narrow stairs to upper floors. Rooms are simple; bathrooms tend to be small with limited storage, and several guests report fluctuating hot water or weak temperature control. Amenities are modest—an indoor/heated pool is appreciated (though one stay found it closed)—and some guests note traffic noise, soft mattresses, limited lighting, or higher summer rates. Expect a straightforward beach stay with basic comforts in a classic, low-frills property.

The indoor pool was not available. It was a cold weekend and I had two young children who were very excited about swimming. The reason I chose this hotel was in the past the pool had been very nice. Had I known it was unavailable, I would have made other arrangements. The only compensation I was offered when I asked was a gift card to a local bat. Not acceptable. I would appreciate a complimentary nights stay for this inconvenience!

Boyfriend and I came for the Memorial Day weekend to see a show in Ogunquit, and this was an excellent place to stay. The rooms look like they were recently renovated, everything was very clean and well designed. The balcony overlooking the ocean was a great addition to the room. All rooms in this hotel have a great ocean view. Be warned that there is no elevator to the 2nd and 3rd floor, so you will need to take stairs. If you are not able to do stairs, they do have rooms available that are at street level. Be ready for a very soft bed. My boyfriend and I are used to sleeping on a firm mattress, so if you are expecting something firm, or semi-firm, it is on the softer side. It wasn’t a problem, for us, but if you are used to sleeping on something firmer, just be prepared. There is no overhead lighting in the main room itself. There were lamps on the dresser and the bed side table, and we loved it, but if you are expecting a light switch to turn on as soon as you walk in, you’ll have to go into the room to get some lights on. There is a bathroom as soon as you walk in that does have a light switch to give you some light as you enter. Overall, we had a great experience, and would definitely consider coming back if we are ever in the area.

We spent 2 nights at The Grandview this weekend. The room was very clean as well as the bathroom. Nice sized mini fridge too. My favorite was the balcony looking over the beach. The location is directly across from the beach but the "rocky" end. However, you can walk down the sidewalk for a minute or 2 and take the stairs right down to the sand. The only thing about the room I would change is a closet or clothing rack. There is something small on the wall but it doesn't hold a lot. We just hung all out clothes on the shower rod in the bathroom so it wasn't a big deal. My husband and son went in the pool and said it was really nice. They even had towels. All in all a great stay!

If you’re looking for a place with tons of amenities, this is not the place for you. This is a quiet EXCEPTIONALLY clean older place. When in say clean, I mean I couldn’t find a cobweb anywhere, even in the window sills. The place is dated, and does seem to lean in places, but it’s perfect for a quiet getaway to the beach. Perfectly located right at the southern end of the beach. You can walk the whole thing and not have to worry about rowdiness at night, which made it great. Close enough to walk, but just far enough away from crowds. Perfectly priced too. There is a heated pool as well although we preferred the ocean ;). No elevator so keep that in mind, by the balcony overlooks the beach and we slept with the sound of the waves(heavenly). This place may not have this big amenities other places have, but you can’t beat how clean it is and where it is located. Definitely a place to return to.

This is such a nice and comfortable place to stay. Very clean. Great ocean views. Its all been recently updated. Easy check in and pleasant staff. The best part is the balcony. Comfortable chairs perfect to view sunrise over the ocean. The bed is made up very nicely with at least 4 pillows. Having a Keurig and a fridge is a nice touch too.

Recently renovated with a modern feel. Beds are comfortable but a little soft for my liking. It is an older building so the floors are not level, with that said they beds should be leveled. Overall, this is a great hotel and I would recommend it to anyone visiting the area. Views from our balcony were beautiful.

Beds were too soft. The staff put a bed board in there and you could not even tell they did that. Could not turn light off on deck to enjoy the evening view of the ocean. Light reflected on glass railing. Glass railing stopped any airflow onto the deck. Deck chairs were uncomfortable. Glass railing did provide a better view then the old wooden railing.

The Grandview Hotel has been recently renovated and it shows. On the plus side, the rooms are very clean and there is a great view of the ocean. There is easy parking in the front and in the back of the hotel. The front desk staff and the maids are wonderful people. On the negative side, the only way to access your room on the second and third floors is to climb narrow wooden steps in the back of the building. If you are an older couple, ask for a ground floor room. There is a road between you and the ocean, so there is some traffic noise. The balcony is not private. Since the balconies don't have a high divider, you can see your neighbors sitting to your left and to your right. Overall, I really liked the hotel, but my girlfriend had a more neutral feeling.
