I'm glad to read that the functions here are good, because this was one of the scariest overnight hotel experiences ever. I flew into Albany for a meeting, but needed to get to Westchester for a day so I thought I would stay in between. I book through a work agent, and always like to stay in something other than... more

We recently attended a wedding at the Poughkeepsie Grand, which was just perfect. The service and food within the reception room was fantastic. However, the service in the Hotel was awful, right down to the rudest bartender ever! The rooms were clean, but the hotel was one of the nosiest places I have ever stayed. There were several weddings, which... more

We spent one terrible night at the Poughkeepsie Grand Hotel. Just after midnight we were awakened to the AC in our room started to make a screaming sound. Rather than wait for it to be repaired or have to change rooms we turned off the AC and waited until morning to complain. Since we didn't complain at midnight they refused... more

I did not end up staying the night at the Poughkeepsie Grand, though I paid for a night. It was the worst hotel experience I have ever had. Who's running this place? I called for the hotel shuttle from the train. 10 mintues later, no shuttle. When I called the hotel desk to find out if I was in the... more

My husband and I had our wedding reception at the Poughkeepsie Grand in October of 2004. Overall, we found it to be a wonderful experience. The staff were very attentive to us and our bridal party. The food was pretty good, though we did not have much of a chance to eat. This is one of the classier hotels in... more

I just read all the awful reviews and I don't get it! I had my wedding at the Poughkeepsie Grand in November of 2003 and thought everything was exceptional. From my first meeting to my check out the day after my wedding I was more then happy. During my reception I was treated like a QUEEN and all my guests... more

What a dump----I've unfortunatly attending numerous weddings hosted at the "Grand"--obviously because the price is cheap and its centrally located--and I have never been close to impressed. The lobby looks horrible---just has an old look--and a musty smell. Each banquet room has a shoddy look---and don't let me get into the food----just terrible---like Hungry Man dinners--with marginally better presentation. The... more

I've read all the other reviews and I find myself agreeing with some of the negative things said as well as some of the positive things. We had stayed there several years ago for a wedding and were basically pleased with the experience. We stayed there in August 2004 as a wedding we were attending was having it's reception there.... more
