They gave me a room with no windows or skylight even though I booked the one with a skylight. A comped breakfast did not fix the fact that I was in a room under the entire heating and cooling system and it was noisy all night

The property was nicely located and super cute. I was aware ahead of time that there were events at this hotel that could be loud until late at night. We were up and having a good time so it was not an issue for us, but if you are an early to bed person, this is probably not the hotel for you. Loud wedding party, music until 11 and the noises from cleaning up and people leaving.

The third floor smelled like rotten eggs in the hallways. I'm not sure if there was a sewage backup or what, but the staff seemed oblivious when I mentioned it at check out. Perks: the room was extremely clean, the staff was nice and helpful, and the bed was comfortable.

The hotel is in a central location with lots to do as far as restaurants and nightlife etc. The staff was very accommodating and helpful. We held a wedding for my son at the site and everything went smoothly and we hardly had to lift a finger. 5 Star stay and we will be back!

Nice place in downtown mckinney. My only issue. Well 2 issues was first night the room i had smelled of an almost pesticide and the air conditioner was t working correctly. They moved me to another room the following night but i was awoke several times throughout the night by barking dogs in a room nearby. So its nice and quaint but you can hear others pretty clearly.

We were in a room across the street from the hotel in an office building so it didn’t feel like we were at a hotel. It was weird. That’s not the room we booked but it was all they had when we checked in. Staff was only mildly helpful. It was a cool hotel but definitely old and needs updating. I would say it’s a 3 star hotel at best. Has potential though to be a really cool hotel!

Room was great! Had a hard time with the hot water in the shower, but probably due to the fact that the building is so old. LOVED the overall appearance on the inside of the hotel.

If you enjoy historic properties (and I do), you will appreciate this hotel. I love the high ceiling, brick wall, and antique furnishings. This hotel is downtown McKinney, an area that is THRiVING! Loads of night life, ripped out of a Hallmark Channel movie!

Historic features. Entry looked clean and well kept. Staff was very nice. Our room was not very “clean”. The blinds and baseboards had what looked like soda splashed all over. The carpet felt incredibly dirty, like it needed to be shampooed. The AC did not work, but we were able to transfer rooms. The “new” room’s ceiling fan looked as if it was going to fall off the ceiling, and two lights didn’t work.

Hotel is old, hot and smells bad. Had water leak streaks down the wall with mold all over. The first room was hotter than the second and was very humid and water stains all over the walls and down the wall below a/c register. Staff was very friendly and super nice though. Not there fault for the bad conditions of the hotel.

It is a beautiful historical site. Not sure where the very strong, musty odor was coming from in our room. The clerk gave us a room price and opened the window. We went to a nearby establishment and when we came back, it still smelled. We used one of the plug-in air fresheners from the hallway in our room which helped

Deserves a 5 out of 5 but for two things. Parking was a challenge. If you arrive at the wrong time, you are out of luck. BUSY downtown. The only lot that's close and free was packed. The other issue was a bit of noise from two nights of weddings as we stayed on a friday/saturday. If we had been any closer to the ballroom, i'd have been upset. As it was, we were able to leave the bathroom fan on to soften the noise. Overall, we'd go again with a better feel for the property.

The room and hotel were amazing. Pay attention to your folio. We were charged for breakfast being delivered to our room. We did not have breakfast either day and were charged. When I questioned it and stated that we did not have breakfast the clerk made us feel as those we were lying and trying to get out of paying. The folio was fixed but had I not asked it would have been charged.

The Grand Hotel is an excellent choice if you want to truly experience McKinney's unique City Square vibe. You will love what The Grand Hotel offers - great customer service, clean rooms/facilities, and comfortable beds; as well as the Hotel's location on the Square. McKinney's Square is not only unique, it is the GOAT of City Squares.

It’s a wonderful location. The hotel itself has beautiful touches in artwork and vintage tile ceilings in suites. Comfy pillows and comfy sheets. They put a sign up to say the carpeting with many stains on the 4th floor where we stayed was a work in progress. Only other disappointment was not being able to shower properly. My daughter had a decent one but then the shower head popped off right when I turned the shower on so I ended up sponge bathing in the shower. Eek. That was disappointing. But the room was truly lovely and the bed wonderfully comfortable. Oh, and there’s a marvellous night club attached ti the hotel with live bands and lovely drinks, as well as Rick’s Chophouse of course.
