Grand Hotel Reviews
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
It hasn't aged as well as some Oscar-winners, but neither is it as dated as, for example, Cimarron.
Antagony & Ecstasy
Tim Brayton
A tremendously sturdy, thoroughly unimaginative, and massively entrancing sample of the early-'30s Hollywood machine doing everything exactly right.
LarsenOnFilm
Josh Larsen
How thoroughly does Joan Crawford own Grand Hotel? She makes Greta Garbo superfluous.
New Yorker
Pauline Kael
There is every reason to reject Grand Hotel as an elaborate chunk of artifice... But if you want to see what screen glamour used to be, and what, originally, "stars" were, this is perhaps the best example of all time.
New York Daily News
Irene Thirer
Each and every performer in the screened "Grand Hotel" does a remarkable piece of work. To us, Garbo is the supreme of magnificence.
TIME Magazine
TIME Staff
As it is, the hotel is well filled.
Variety
Alfred Rushford Greason
A commercial picture of high box office potential, first by assembling the most impressive aggregation so far of strictly Bradstreet screen names, and then by filming the play practically unaltered in form.
Chicago Reader
Dave Kehr
Less effective as a movie than as a dazzling parade of star iconography.
New York Times
Mordaunt Hall
It is a production thoroughly worthy of all the talk it has created and the several motion-picture luminaries deserve to feel very proud of their performances, particularly Greta Garbo and Lionel Barrymore.
Nerdist
Witney Seibold
The camera movements and production values are elaborate and intriguing and engaging. There is a sense of activity, of bustle in every frame.
Goatdog's Movies
Michael W. Phillips, Jr.
Sometimes moving, sometimes funny, and almost always entertaining.
Apollo Guide
Jamie Gillies
A lesson on just how far motion pictures have come, and thank heavens for 1970s independent filmmaking or Hollywood might still resemble Louis Mayer's fantasy world.
Three Movie Buffs
Scott Nash
Most movies telegraph their endings long before the finale, but I honestly didn't know how this one would end.
Nick's Flick Picks
Nick Davis
Movie stars existed before Grand Hotel, and yet this picture seems to reinvent the whole concept right before your dazzled eyes.
Cinema Sight
Wesley Lovell
An all-star cast give varying shades of good performances to highlight a fun and interesting story about the sordid affairs of the rich and not-so-famous.
eFilmCritic.com
David Cornelius
It's a Hollywood legend, a big, brassy melodrama overflowing with top stars.
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
Grand Hotel was the first Garbo film I ever saw, and she enchanted me effortlessly, despite the presence of the rest of the powerful ensemble cast.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
MGM at its glossiest and most melodramatic, with a an all-star cast that includes Garbo, John and Lionel Barrymore, Joan Crawford, and Lewis Stone--the kind of pictures they don't make anymore.
Film-Forward.com
Kent Turner
What may come as a surprise is that, among this illustrious cast, it is Crawford who stands out.

It comes with a grand reputation but by today's standards is outdated.
