    Best Experience!!

    I was finally able to have my wedding after some Covid restrictions were lifted. I am so happy we chose Poughkeepsie Grand Hotel! I worked with Gina throughout my whole process and she was hands down an amazing person to deal with! I always felt welcomed! She answered every and all questions we had! The staff at PGH were so friendly and professional. They made my guest extremely happy and we are so thankful for everything! I had a vision of what I wanted and they delivered! Everything was beautiful and I wish I could relive it all! Thank you so much!!

    Loved my wedding here!

    My husband was very set on having the wedding here as he used to work at the Grand Hotel. I forced him to look at other venues, but in the end we decided upon the Poughkeepsie Grand Hotel. We met with Gina, who was with us through the whole wedding planning process and I couldn't be happier that she was there for us! Gina helped to make the stress of planning a wedding less stressful!

    Our ceremony was here as well and everything went off without a hitch! The ballroom was gorgeous and everything was set up the way I would have set it up myself. TO be honest I did not have high expectations for the food.....I...

    Great people and a great price

    It is really difficult to beat the prices (and extras) that the Poughkeepsie Grand Hotel offers. My husband and I loved having our wedding there. The people are great, the food is delicious, and plenty of space and options for all wedding sizes. The rooftop wedding ceremony was amazing and was one of the best added bonuses of choosing this venue (among many other things).

    Best Night of my Life

    After I got engaged, I looked around at different venues online and nothing compared to the Poughkeepsie grand. I worked with Gina from day 1 and she made sure everything was perfect!! What they include in their packages is beyond what most others include. Plus after the party, everyone can take an elevator ride right up to their rooms. It was nice to have that piece of mind knowing all those people weren’t driving home! I had the absolute best night of my life and if I had to do it all over again, I wouldn’t change a thing. They were simply amazing.

    Fantastic Reception

    Poughkeepsie Grand Hotel, aside from all the great perks and benefits of doing our wedding with them, was very easy to work with, extremely accommodating, communicative, and helpful. The food was both bountiful and delicious, and the staff were extremely responsive and attentive to not just us, but our guests as well. Location was easy for most people to get to and super nice having the hotel attached so at the end of our night we could roll right into bed. Particularly trying to plan a wedding remotely, the number of things included and tasks/decisions that PGH helped make, made doing our wedding a significantly less stressful and much more fun experience!

    Best Venue!

    They take care of you and help make your day perfect with every little detail. The day was amazing and I did not have to worry about a thing. What you get for the price is beyond reasonable. I would recommend this place to everyone! Michelle and the entire staff are incredible.

    Wedding Venue

    Great experience! Working with Michelle made our entire wedding process so easy. The staff was attentive and welcomed any special request my family and I made. Very convenient having the venue attached to the hotel and it also helps to prevent drinking/driving. All guest were happy to take a 30 second elevator ride to their room at the end of the night!

    Excellent service, excellent wedding!

    I cannot say enough about the EXCELLENT service we received for our wedding last week! Michelle, our wedding coordinator, went above and beyond this past 10 months while we planned our big day with her! Every email or call I placed to her was answered immediately and she was always happy to assist with any questions I had, no matter how big or small the issue was! On our wedding day, Michelle was there and made sure everything started out the way I wanted it. After her, maitre'd Emily and our head table server Freddy, took over the show and not only guided us through everything, but made sure we always had food and drinks at our table! We...

    Beautiful Wedding ceremony and Reception

    We were married at The Poughkeepsie Grand recently. The Poughkeepsie Grand offers a great deal that includes a block of rooms for your overnight guests. Our Wedding Coordinator was extremely helpful and was always available for any questions that I may have had. We held our ceremony there which was followed by the reception. The ceremony was held outside which they did a very nice job of and the reception was held afterward. The food was very good at the reception. All of my guests enjoyed the service and the food . The wait staff and bartenders were extremely attentive to the Bride and Groom as well as our guests. If you are looking for a beautiful setting at an affordable price to hold your wedding, I would highly recommend the Poughkeepsie Grand

    The best bang for your buck. Incredible.

    If you’re on the search for a venue in this area, we highly recommend taking a look at the Poughkeepsie Grand Hotel. We had been to several venues and never had that “this is the place” moment until we visited the Grand hotel.
    We may be a little biased because it was our wedding, but this was the best wedding we have ever been to! We had plenty of guests making similar remarks though which has made our claim feel validated. Many guests specifically complimented the speed of service, the ballroom and decorations, as well as the food and quality of service.
    We booked the Regency Package, which gives you the larger ballroom (you need at least 100...

    I would recommend

    My wedding isn’t until 2020. However, They were very responsive and very informative when we went to look at the venue. The price and package we wanted was just perfect and they have been extremely helpful in answering my million questions along the way as well as a quick response time!

    Kisha is the best group sales manager!!!!

    We just had our wedding this past Saturday at the Grandview and had a ton of family traveling from out of town. The Poughkeepsie Grand Hotel was a great fit for our guests and Kisha made the entire process so easy and FUN! From initial contact to the day of she answered every question (no matter how repetitive or crazy) and addressed all our needs with top notch professionalism and courtesy. She was an absolute pleasure to work and plan with and has such a wonderfully warm and inviting personality. She made us feel like she was a member of the family and as concerned if not more concerned with how everything would come together. She gave us a...

    Excellent venue!

    I am so glad I chose the PK Grand Hotel for my wedding. It was perfect, the staff was great, and it was the less stressful part of my planning. The ceremony was beautiful, and the ballroom was everything I had imagined. Every detail I discussed with Michelle, she made sure it was executed beautifully. The food was wonderful, every single guest was raving about the food. There were no complaints at all from anyone, and everyone kept raving about the place, how convenient everything is - it is all in one place! Michelle was so attentive to my ring bearer, who is special needs, and anything he needed or we needed to change, she made sure she handled...

    Venue Visit

    I checked the reviews online before setting an appointment. All the reviews raved about how much they loved the venue, how the food was delicious and how affordable the venue was. To be honest, when I read the reviews I thought to myself that this venue was too good to be true. I reached out to set up an appointment and Michelle responded right away. We communicated constantly via email before scheduling our visit and Michelle was so wonderful! She responded in a timely matter and answered all the questions I had. When we finally went to visit the venue we LOVED it. My fiancé and I really wanted to stay within a reasonable budget and this place provides...

    Exceptional experience! Everyone we encountered from this venue was friendly, kind and professional. Our representative, Gina was a great help every step of the way and made sure every detail was perfect. Anthony, our Maitre d ensured that everything ran smoothly. Our server, Jamie was just amazing, my husband was never without a drink in his hand. Thevroom was beautiful and the food was phenomenal. There was so many hors d'oeuvre that we were full by the time we got to the main course, but of course, they made sure to bring our left overs, and then some to our room afterwards. Everything was perfect!

    Everything about the Poughkeepsie Grand is amazing. They were so accommodating and kind. We had an issue because I lost my job while we were still making payments and they were very flexible with that. Everyone that we dealt with was pleasant from the day we put down the deposit to the night of the wedding. Gina, Maureen, Kisha and Mitchell are just a few of the great people there.

    My husband and I got married here on 8.26.11 and the ceremony was set up really beautiful. Michelle was the best coordinator. The cocktail hour was great. Once your hand has no drink, they bring you another right away. Drinks are amazing, as is the crab rangoon omg! So many chicken choices to choose from as your chicken choice. Everything was delicious. Staff is so friendly. The free trolley takes you to shadows and the last pick up time is 1:30am. Very convenient. Our friends and family said it was the best wedding hands down.

    I can not praise the service I received from the POK grand staff enough. Five stars does not seem to be as high as they deserve. Our coordinator Michelle did everything a bride could possibly ask for to help our reception go smoothly. They set up all our decorations, cleaned everything up, helped our vendors set up, etc. Michelle even let our groomsmen use the additional bridal suite to get ready in, even though our package only included one suite which the bridesmaids and I were using. The food was amazing and they even sent out small sampler plates to the guests which had samples of the dishes they did not order on them. All the guests said it...

    The Grand did an excellent job with my wedding. We had booked them only 3 months prior to the wedding, and in that 3 month period everything was ironed out in only 3 meetings. Tara was a pleasure to work with, as well as the rest of the staff. The food was excellent, and VERY plentiful. The bridal party was given a private room to relax in during the cocktail hour and we were doted on basically hand and foot. I never felt like any of the staff was insincere and the Maitre d' was wonderful. The centerpieces were included and I was pleasantly surprised. The staff did a wonderful job decorating as I was not picky and gave...

    ​My husband and I held our wedding reception at The Grandview and was recommended to The Grand Hotel for our guest accommodations. That is where we fell in love with Kisha, the Group Sales Manager. In our opinion, she’s makes The Grand Hotel what it is! She was sweet, accommodating, helpful and always in a fantastic mood! She showed us all of our room options, was constantly assisting me with my forever growing room block and even offered us complimentary shuttle rides for our guests for our rehearsal dinner at Cosimos. We couldn’t have had a better experience and would absolutely recommend The Grand Hotel to anyone visiting the Poughkeepsie area!
