Williamsport Grandview Hotel

Great for staying a night! The space was bigger than I thought it would be. Bed was comfortable.

very beautiful

There are two Grandview hotels, one near Williamsport PA (technically in Linden) and one in Lock Haven PA. Only the Lock Haven Grandview has been renovated. The Williamsport Grandview is old, run down, and from the highway appears abandoned. Both entrances have been blocked by the highway department; apparently there is an ongoing legal dispute. We stayed at the Williamsport Grandview in early June 2024. With the entrances blocked and only one car in the lot it looked closed even though we had a booking. We circled multiple times before finding an unmarked entrance on a side street. The rooms have a single window in front; the bedroom has no window and resembles an underground bunker. The interior doors are dirty and nothing has been painted, upgraded or renovated for years. However, thanks to a diligent onsite housekeeper the room was clean, with no smell typical of budget motels, and the kitchen was functional. There is no onsite manager/office and the check-in process was confusing and frustrating. It seems odd that the price for this unrenovated half-closed hotel is the same as for the renovated Lock Haven hotel.
