The Grand Resort Named Best in Ohio for Second Year in a Row

If you’re looking for a home base for your next getaway, why not go for one that’s among the best of the best? The Grand Resort in Warren has been named the Best Resort in Ohio by the U.S. News & World Report for the second year in a row.

When you look at the range of amenities offered at the resort, it’s easy to see why it retained the honor. The Grand Resort has spacious guest rooms, multiple plush bars and lounges and a host of fine dining experiences with views of the resort’s stunning campus.

Explore a variety of recreational activities, from access to four championship golf courses to myriad ball courts to an outdoor pool complex featuring a tiered Roman bath. If you’re looking to get active indoors, there’s a 25-meter Olympic pool along with a state-of-the-art fitness center that offers group classes and personalized training.

For those just looking to unwind and relax, The Grand Salon & Spa offers steam showers, an infrared sauna and a full salon. There’s also the Grand Med-Spa, where visitors can find nonsurgical procedures like laser treatments, hormone therapies and a dermatology center to make a stay a rejuvenating one.

The Grand Resort has seen $30 million in improvements since 2019, including a $1 million redesign of guest rooms in early 2025 — an investment that has boosted both leisure and business visitation to the region. 

“The hospitality sector is an increasingly competitive and experience-driven industry,” Kelli Denman, general manager at The Grand Resort, said in a May 29, 2025, press release. “We’re investing not only in our property, but in the long-term growth of the tourism economy in Northeast Ohio.”
