Also the Rimrock in Banff. We stayed at the Rimrock in July and it was very nice and less expensive than Banff Springs, but had all of the elegance.

While not a Grand Hotel we love Little Palm Island in the Florida Keys. You pick up the ferry on little Torch Key at mile marker 29.5. The best service we have ever received.

Love the Mount Washington. Go up the road about 15 miles to Whitefield NH to the Mountain View Grand. Gorgeous views of the Presidential mountain range andthe BEST bloody marys!

We loved the Greenbriar and also the Homestead, the Tides Inn and the Grandover.

The Breakers was lovely (went there for dinner) but unfortunately we have a very bad experience on the way back to our hotel, so it does not bring fond memories.

Locally, Gaylord Palms in Orlando is worth a look. Maybe not as elegant but interesting.
