Verified reviews of Hotel Grinnell Downtown An Ascend Collection Hotel

Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked in recently:
"Great Experience at Hotel Grinnell."
Overall score5.0/ 5
We always stay here when we're in town. The rooms are always clean and great and they always have so much to do with games and the periodic table in the hotel. Central Park is right next door too so a great place to stay with kids.

"Great location, missing amenities microwave, refrigerator."
Overall score3.0/ 5
The room had a noisy fan that never turned off. Decorations were cute. I didn't feel very secure because of free access to multiple locations.

Property description

Erected in 1921, the building served as the city's junior high school until the late '70s. Nearly 40 years later, it has been repurposed into an independently owned hotel, eatery, bar, and event center. When you stay at Hotel Grinnell, you'll sleep in an old classroom. The former locker rooms have been transformed into a bar, and the old scoreboard now decorates the lounge. The old gymnasium has a new life as a modern ballroom, and the auditorium is now a lively venue for performances, conferences, and weddings. Hotel Grinnell believes there's something special about soaking in the history of this old building, and we have taken care to add thoughtful touches of the original school throughout. Come find out how Hotel Grinnell merges old-school tradition with new-school attitude.
