Boutique Hotel & Event Destination

The Hotel Grinnell is a school you want to come back to. It was built in 1921 to nourish the young minds of Grinnell and 40 years later, it has been designed as a modern, eco-friendly boutique hotel and event destination. Upscale in style but laid back in spirit, the property offers a nod to its academic history. One of its most unique features is the artwork—you’ll find over 300 pieces of original artwork throughout the hotel. Today, it stands as the city's most popular destination hotel and a favorite of leisure and business travelers.

Rooms & Suites

Falling asleep in a classroom never felt so right. Each of the 45 immaculate accommodations at Hotel Grinnell is designed to celebrate the building’s roots. Each room features plush, pillowtop beds with Egyptian cotton sheets, wifi, flat-panel smart TVs, mini-fridges, and coffee makers.

Eat & Drink

The hotel's lounge and patio are now open 7 days a week starting at noon! They serve complimentary breakfast from 7-10am daily.

From good food to the giant Scrabble board, shuffleboard table, and patio with fire pits, the Periodic Table lounge is not your everyday school cafeteria. Their lunch-period-meets-recess vibe makes it the perfect gathering spot for cocktails while you blow off a little steam. When it comes to the beer curriculum, their staff has combed the state of Iowa to bring you the best from local breweries.
