GrandStay
GrandStay provides hotel lodging with a focus on extended-stay guests and travelers who need more than a standard overnight room. We offer three property types: GrandStay Residential Suites Hotels, GrandStay properties with conference centers, and GrandStay Hotel & Suites. Our rooms range from king and queen suites with microwaves and small refrigerators to extended-stay suites with full kitchens, including refrigerators, stove tops, dishwashers, and utensils. We serve guests staying for a day, a week, a month, or longer, including people traveling for work, seminars, relocation, or other temporary stays. Each property operates under our brand standards, systems, and building specifications.
