Our first experience in Grand Hotel Kuwait

Check in service is very excellent and fast! The front desk staff are are very helpful and kind. But highlight of our stay is because of our experience in the Vitality spa. The staff are very excellent and their massage service is one of a kind! I will surely recommend it to my friends and family! Kudos for Staff Mini Sam! However I would suggest if they can improve their television and the telephone. Its is really old and difficult to use.

انتظار طويل عند الدخول

وصلت الساعة ١١ الظهر ولم توجد غرفة فارغة وانتظرت لمدة ساعة ونصف للحصول على غرفة فارغة بعد تنظيفها ، و هذا لا يليق بمستوى الفندق ، حيث يوجد غرف فارغة و لكنهم لم يدخلوني بها لأنها سعرها أغلى ، مع وجود عدة عوائل تنتظر بنفس المشكلة ، و المفترض عمل ترقية للشخص بدلاً من طول الانتظار و الحفاظ على سمعة الفندق حتى لو كان الدخول الفعلي الساعة الثانية ظهراً ، بالإضافة إلى عدم وجود مواقف مضللة للسيارات عن أشعة الشمس تليق بمستوى الفندق .

All Staff where lovely and very helpful. Breakfast buffet and their staff were really nice. But the hotel is soo old. Our toilet had a strong sewage smell. The bed and blankets were not comfortable. Toilet is old as well. We asked for extra bed for 1 night and it wasn’t comfortable at all. For the price we paid we unfortunately won’t come back again.

This hotel is right on the beach & ideal for a break from the city life. The rooms are really clean & the staff are exemplary & personified with their warm smile & their impeccable behaviour to one & all. The breakfast style is very comprehensive & they offer hot food & festooned with a variety of pasties, breads to suit anyone’s taste buds. My only issue, is the hotel is not anywhere near some some of the tourist attractions but that said they are only a bus or taxi ride away. By & large the Grand Hotel is quiet & the staff are the very reason why I would visit again!
