Horrible during construction.
Right after my booking became nonrefundable, the hotel sent an email saying that construction is happening in the hotel and that the restaurant would be closed. Turns out the construction is massive. It woke me up every morning hours before my alarm, there was banging all day. The pool is closed off from the hotel and requires a several minute walk outside to get to. There were guys saying wood and working right next to the pool deck and hauling wood and other materials. Dreadful stay at a usually very good hotel.

Under construction
Hotel is under major renovations/ construction. Charging an exprbant rate a night is ridiculous for just a room with no restaurant/bar/lounge area/lobby. Only 1 elevator working so takes forever to get to your room. We respectfully did not stay and got a refund. Very kind staff and not their fault so I feel bad for them having to work in these conditions.

The hotel is undergoing renovations which were not made known PRIOR to booking or arrival. Amenities that contribute to higher hotel star ratings were not available. However, despite this we were stll charged premium rates from Hotels.com and the Hotel Granduca had similar rates.
The staff was friendly and helpful.
The room was comfortable.
According to staff, renovation is supposed to conclude by early December.
Would stay again AFTER renovations. But definitely not worth the rate per night right now.

Our second home! Alicia is amazing!
We love The Granduca! It is our home away from home! When you check in ask for Alica!! She is the best! She will calmly and patently take care of you. This stay we had an unfortunate check in when Thu interrupted and abruptly told us there were no other rooms. Thu is not for everyone. We got a room after I had to point out that I had just seen my friend release her two rooms.All the staff is so warm and friendly.
