Auburn Marriott Opelika Resort & Spa at Grand National

We come annually with our kids and families. Always plenty of kids activities and this year I feel the director really made a great impact. She was excellent. The food is over priced and usually takes an extremely long time to receive but it’s usually pretty good. The bar staff took the longest time this year than any other time or week we have visited. Perhaps a service bartender (at the pool) and cocktail/pool servers would eliminate the lengthy line and time frame to receive beverages and order food. I would imagine this would greatly increase revenue as well, but otherwise, it’s a very safe place and enjoyable for everyone. The additional loungers at the pool and fire pit tables and chairs around the lawn were a very nice improvement! A bit disappointing the trails were gated off by the lake (red trail). Felt limited on our easy access to trails this time.

Beautiful grounds and trails, excellent hotel, great food at the restaurant…I wish I could’ve stayed longer to enjoy the pool and spa!

We had a great night here. We were not able to enjoy too much other than dinner but the game room is a plus. Everything in the room worked great not really any complaints.

**A Relaxing and Well-Rounded Getaway at Auburn Marriott Grand National** I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Auburn Marriott Grand National Resort and it exceeded expectations on multiple fronts. My room had a **beautiful view overlooking the pool**, creating a relaxing backdrop for the entire stay. The **fitness center was fantastic**, equipped with a great variety of machines that made it easy to keep up with my workout routine. The **breakfast bar was another highlight**, offering a wide range of delicious choices to kick off the day right. Families will especially enjoy the **multiple outdoor pools**, complete with fun water slides that kept the kids entertained. There’s also a spacious **indoor pool with hot tubs**, which was the perfect place to wind down in the evenings. While I’m not a golfer, I appreciated the diverse range of **other recreational options**, including tennis. This resort really caters to every type of traveler—whether you're there to relax, stay active, or explore. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a well-rounded resort experience with top-notch amenities!

The hotel experience was pretty good. Rooms could use update. Service was very well. Restaurants were okay

I’ve stayed in hotels that cost six times as much, and were lovely. But this actually felt like… home. The staff was perfectly lovely with dignity instead of obsequious pandering The room was exactly the right dimensions for light and comfort. Bed bedded just right. The food was hilariously great, no little sad exceptions. Which is pretty impressive on a buffet. The pools were perfect in aesthetics and function. Parking was plentiful. 10/10 y’all.

First time visiting this property and was amazed how nice it was designed and decorated. It certainly looks like the area is set for future developments of residences. However, the lodge or the main campus was great. We were there for the brunch, which was amazing. The food was fresh varied, and really laid out very attractively. Kudos to the chef. I love the honey from the honeycomb. I will be back if I’m ever traveling from New Jersey to Auburn in the future best of success!

We very much enjoyed our stay here. The staff go above and beyond and are so kind. Everyone from the bell hop to the front desk, seemed as though they enjoyed their jobs. The exterior of the hotel and the lobby are a bit dated but they have it decorated very nicely. The rooms have been updated and the beds are to die for. I slept great in those comfy beds! We were here for parents weekend in Auburn and this proved to be a great place to unwind after the game Saturday. The pool bar was excellent and a great spot to watch football. We would definitely choose to stay here again on future trips!
