I recently stayed at the Altoona Grand Hotel.The outside is a bit deceiving. The pictures of this hotel do not reflect the beauty of this hotel. The poolside rooms where we stayed are fabulous with a door that opens directly to the indoor heated pool with floor to ceiling views of the pool. The pool area looks like a tropical island with a stained glass ceiling.The entire hotel is beautiful. I wish there was a hotel like this in or near Durham NC, I would check in once a month for a stay-cation especially in the winter to relax and enjoy the pool.Unfortunately I did not stay long enough to try the restaurant but if it is as nice as the rooms, employees and the rest of the hotel, it has to be as nice.The staff at this hotel were warm, friendly and helpful when needed.Rooms: Rooms are very clean and comfortable but would have liked a walk in shower. This is not a complaint just a suggestion. This would be my #1 choice if I visit Altoona again. I would not stay anywhere else!!Walkability: Shopping is right across the street!Noteworthy details: This is a fabulous event hotel.

Girls night out with my youngest daughter (12 yrs old). We really enjoyed our stay. Comfy clean rooms, very friendly staff, overall beautiful place. We will be back, and hopefully next time the hot tub is not down for maintenance or repair.☺️

Don't. Unclean; gravel on carpet and a wet towel in the bathroom. Worn out rooms with mould... And the restaurant is going to be closed.

I stayed here for a night and I would never stay here again. There were loud roommates, and loud people in the hallways at 1am. When I first entered my room had puke in it. They quickly cleaned it after I found someone due to the front desk being terrible.The food they served as a complimentary breakfast was terrible. First of all the food wasn't cooked all the way. The breakfast potatoes were extremely wet. Yogurt was expired. No fruit, and no toast. They had a toaster but when I asked for toast I was told "bread gets stolen so we don't set the bread out and won't be giving it out". So I can't get toast because "bread is stolen". Bacon was terrible. How do you mess up bacon. Coffee was terrible. The only good thing was orange juice. They also didn't have pancakes or waffles. Worst breakfast ever.

This place is great. Especially the pool. Although the guy at the front desk is a little creepy, everything else was good.

The room itself wasn't bad. It was clean, comfortable, and had the amenities one would expect. The biggest issue was the interior door opened to the pool area, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. The overwhelming chlorine smell was. The service was very good. Aside from powdered coffee creamer, the breakfast was good as well. Was only there for one night to attend an event that was being held on site, so I can't speak to how good a location it is for Altoona at large, but it is very convenient to get to and from the interstate.

Fantastic set up, we'll organized and great quality of Gems in the raw or polished, also set into rings, necklaces and bracelets. Lots of one of a kind pieces! So many beautiful things to choose from! Great Gem show, highly recommend for the Gem lovers!

Friendly staff, especially the nice guy named Tom at the front desk and always respectful to his customers always has a smile on his face. Everything we call them he always answers the phone when we need something.

I attended a three day meeting here but had to stay elsewhere as the block of rooms was sold out. Meeting rooms were ok. Food in the bar was good but service was slow and cranky. Banquet in the atrium was delicious but acoustics were terrible...the speaker couldn't be understood and the audience looked at their phones until he finished. Poor guy didn't have a chance. Pavement in parking lot full of holes.Sheraton cut them loose for a reason.Walkability: Not walkable to anything ... it fronts on a highway

Arrived late into the night and was given Rm 102. From the very moment we got to the room door, there was issues. Attempted the key card numerous times, it seemed as though it was acknowledging the card, but getting caught on something. So I went to the front desk and the gentleman KNEW the door was broken. He proceeded to come over to the door and attempt himself, stating he can normally get it on the 2nd or 3rd try. As we stood there and watched the gentleman force himself into the door, which was far more times than 2 or 3, I stated "well gee, I hope we don't have to leave, and get back into the room!" He then stated well I could give you another room, but I tried giving you the one closest to the entrance. Upon finally breaking in, the room was VERY outdated, hot and stuffy. The first thing I did was turn on the ac. Now mind you, there's no unit to be seen, but a double sided vent, one to the room, one to the shower. The room was 73 when we arrived, 80 when we left. It was set at COOL and 65. I'm certain it was nothing more than an exhaust fan and if you wanted ac you had to turn the cold water on in the shower and let it run!! MINDBLOWING!! The shower area was absolutely DISGUSTING and I wouldn't bathe my dog in there. It seems as though their focus is on renovating everything but the rooms. To me, that should be their biggest priority!! Next time, I'll support a big chain franchise, over this property.

Never seen the room so I'll be considerate there. Made a mistake on my reservation...no consideration for simple humans mistakes. Accidentally made reservation for wrong night, front desk staff was snippy off the bat. Refused to give refund unless I made new reservation which was almost $90 more a room at that point.
