I can't rave enough about the Grande Bretagne! We were there precruise last October for one night. The hotel had just been totally renovated. We had a one step above standard room and it was gorgeous...with one of the most elegant bathrooms ever! Our jetlagged late night supper in the lobby bar was perfect...as was the service and the location! I'd stay there again in a heartbeat! Bonnie

Editing to add that Architectural Digest recently did a wonderful article on the GB. Pictures give you a pretty good idea of the rooms and lobby. :app:
