Hotel Grand Victorian Branson is a Grand Place to Stay

Reviewed by Ashley of ReserveDirect.comBranson’s Hotel Grand Victorian is a beautiful property centrally located on the Branson Strip. During my visit, I found the property to be well worth the nightly rate for several reasons. The attention to detail, amenities provided and many updates throughout the property all cater to the Branson visitor.

First and foremost, the design of the property is pure Victorian, and has an almost palace like feel to it. It provides the initial ambiance guests are looking for when they arrive at their lodging establishment. Upon entering the hotel, I noticed great care had been dedicated to the lobby and the breakfast area, situated in the back of the large lower level, was of a nice size and offered hot items, such as biscuits and gravy. Even better were the two pools available, one indoor and one outdoor. The best thing about their indoor pool is the fact it is a salt water pool rather than a chlorine-based pool. The saltwater pool is easier on the hair, skin and senses rather than chlorine pools, and the smell is much nicer! Their outdoor pool is also situated nicely towards the rear of the property so the view is of natural surroundings rather than a lobby or Hwy. 76.

The rooms at the Hotel Grand Victorian Branson are in superb condition as they have just received all new updates, including new beds, curtains, bedding, shower heads and carpet. They really feel like a new hotel room at a new property rather than one that has been in Branson for several years. Many of the rooms also offer balconies overlooking the Branson strip, which is a nice touch. The Hotel Grand Victorian also offers several sitting areas throughout the property, a nice-sized game room, guest laundry and fitness center, although the fitness center is somewhat small.

I would recommend this property for families, couples, and travelers looking for a little something extra from their hotel while visiting Branson.
