My boyfriend and I loved the Bisbee Grand. We stayed in the covered wagon room, which was about the coolest thing ever. The hotel is centrally located, so we were able to park the car on Friday, and didn't get back in until Sunday. The room shared a wall with the bar, but the noise was muffled and didn't keep us up at all. We thought it was quaint that the clerk was also the bartender, and just generally loved the Bisbee Grand. Also, apparently the Victorian Room is haunted, so we're excited to go back and try to stay in that room as well. If you have little kids, they'll think the covered wagon is great!

I was a little trepedatious after reading the reviews, but as long as you understand that this is an OLD hotel, and that it's not going to have all the amenities of a Four Seasons, or even a Holiday Inn, you'll be fine. You should be staying here precisely because of the hotel's interesting history, and kitschy atmosphere.

My Husband and I stayed in room 8 at the Bisbee Grand Hotel. We both enjoy going to ghost towns and staying in unique (and sometimes haunted) hotels. We had never been to Bisbee before this trip, so we were thrilled when we arrived. Bisbee is a wonderful place with plenty to see and do. The hotel was clean and the staff was very friendly. There was a delicious homemade breakfast of chocolate dipped pastries, pastry bars, bagels, fresh fruit, meats, and several choices of beverages (orange juice was chilly and tasty). The room itself was charming and had all of the qualities that I had hoped for in an antique building. Except that the mattress was modern and very comfortable. The queen sized bed itself was an impressive authentic brass bed with gorgeous marble balls and accents. I must admit, after reading some of the crummy reviews from other people on here, I was afraid of the noise from the bar below etc. I think whomever wrote those reviews were staying in a different hotel because we slept just fine and the "noise" wasn't even an issue. It was really a neat experience. I would certainly recommend this hotel to anyone.

We are two senior couples from York, Pennsylvania and Tucson, AZ who make a habit of almost never booking hotels in advance. We booked from the Queen Mine parking lot in Bisbee that February 18th Monday morning. We like something different than the average cookie cutter motel/hotel room when it is available. I had done some previous checking of accommodations via computer before leaving PA. However when my husband said the bath was down the hall and he was confused as to whether it was in or out of the Capitan's Suite, we said we wanted to see it first.

Research had prepared me for little parking however we forgot it was President's day, a long weekend and there was no parking even in the lot across from the hotel when we arrived. I was dropped off for inspection. Doors open directly off the street. I found a friendly "bartender" Ms. Laura, who directed me to the suite. Ms.Terri and Ms. Chris were cleaning and making beds. They cheerfully told me to just wander through. This huge suite contained a large front living/dining room, through french doors a good size room with queen bed, then an even larger room with king bed and down the hall, inside the same suite, a huge bath with clawfoot tub, shower, etc. Old yes, clean yes. Comfortable beds, warm blankets, extra pillows, lots of fluffy towels and plenty of hot water. At $194 including all taxes, Six could have slept with 2 on the sofabed. We thought it was very reasonable. We have spent more for less space and comfort.

When we finished touring that afternoon the parking lot was nearly empty. We had a lady who could not do stairs. All Bisbee is straight up so we lucked out with this first floor suite. A small problem. The 3 portable radiator type heaters blew some circuits. A cheerful Miranda fetched the repair man who immediately fixed that problem. She got us ice and invited us to take a self-guided tour of any room with open doors. The building is delightful old, old lady; each room has a different theme and ranges from quite small rooms with bath to very spacious suites.

The included continental breakfast was fresh, plentiful and tasty.
Coffee, juice, boiled eggs, cheese, yogurt, scones, english muffins, toast, luncheon meats, cereal, croissants and jellies. Real plates, cups and saucers and please help yourself.

We slept well, the staff was friendly, helpful and made us feel they were glad to had stopped there. We would recommend the Bisbee Grand to almost anyone.

I did notice that there were some very scruffy, homeless looking characters hanging on the street. There seemed a large number for the size of the town. Perhaps as walking tourists we were just more alert to them. Travelers should always be cautious.

Stayed at the BG in Jan. 2008. Rm. No. 1, right off of the main stairway. We also thought it was odd that the lobby was locked, and that the bartender was the hotel clerk, but not a big deal.
Since we had had a long trip, we turned in after dinner. Shortly before 8 pm, a large, noisy group of folks on some kind of a hotel tour came bounding up the stairs, led by a noisier, high-pitched tour leader. She told folks to look around and open any of the room doors - fortunately, ours was locked, and whomever jiggled the door handle didn't get in. After they left, my husband went to find the clerk to see if we could change rooms, but sorry! the desk was closed. So we settled in again...and low and behold! here comes another group just before 10 pm!
Between that, the harsh light coming through the transom all night, the paper thin door through which we could hear everyone coming up the stairs until 2 am, when the bar closed, we got no sleep and were really happy to leave - without touching the breakfast that looked like it had been set out on the table for a number of days.
One note: if you decide to stay here, be sure to get a room with a window. Ours only had an airshaft, and I noticed that although there were two fire escape routes posted on the door, both went out that way, so really only one escape.
