Definitely worth staying a couple of nights and super close to the Kingston airport. A great hub to walk to all the sights in Port Royal and to catch a boat to the cays.

Disliked: Staff & service
If you want to have a good time in Jamaica don’t come here. Most of the staff are unprofessional and not the friendliest. We had to wait over two hours for our food. Items were taken from my friends room The safe box didn’t work so I had no where to keep my valuables There was no do not disturb sign to place on the door, so staff could come in whenever ( and never knock)

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
This hotel offers the best view of the wide-open harbor, overlooking downtown Kingston. (There was a renovation taking place at the property when we stayed. The noise was quite intense. The hotel should not rent out the affected rooms during the renovation.)

The views at this property were beautiful, a massive plus for me. Pleasant and friendly staff, good food (lovely traditional breakfast at weekend) & music. The outside of the hotel looks great, rooms need just a little TLC. Would stay again.

Disliked: Staff & service
Staff at front desk was not. Professional. Treated us like we were begging them breakfast. When we already paid for for 2 days . Gave me a receipt for one night.but charge for two. We were so turned off we refuse to spend the second night there. However the place is nice but again staff just made it ugly.

The Grand Hotel Excelsior is teeming with history and it is no surprise that not much has changed with the building. Everything is well maintained however. Making customers comfortable seems to the priority of staff.
