The Grand America Hotel
Beautiful hotel, great dining options, amazing beds and I love the curated marble & gold bathrooms! Love the staff. Only thing is there’s no complimentary water bottle in the suits which there always is at higher end hotels. But we love it and come back yearly for family traditions
