Recent Jw Marriott Grande Lakes Review: "I believe this hotel was my favorite hotel. It was perfect in almost every way. Of course a little pricey but I have spent as much or more with less pleasure. The food was fabulous, the staff friendly, the bar loads of fun (great to have sushi at the bar). My only complaint was of a strong perfume odor in the main lobby. It was there the entire time and for those of us with allergies to strong candles and perfumes it was extremely strong. It did appear that everywhere we went they were offering chefs treats and little niceities that made you feel special. I will go again!"
