The staff could have been friendlier. I needed ice, and the only way to get it is to ask for it at the front desk. They have to go get it from the kitchen. Both times I asked for it, they seemed a little put off for me doing it.

Return Trip Did Not Disappoint

2nd trip to Grand Union. Despite bad weather had a great stay. Incredible step back into history in a 140 year old historic building. Great pillows and towels! Nicely renovated and maintained. Again, their restaurant may be the highlight of our stay!
