This review is not for the hotel but for the bar. I wish i could give zero stars. The bar is a cute…read morelocal spot where it's clear locals go to in order to play pool. Play the jute box and hang with the local community. I personally used to own such a bar in Long Island and these kind of bars are near to my heart. Whoever the middle aged woman was working on November 9th was the rudest person i ever met. She without solid validation asked me to leave for quite frankly no reason what so ever. Mentioning i was drunk. Just as every other person in the bar was. I was not fighting anyone being loud or doing anything to warrant that kind of horrible treatment. In fact i was wearing a business suit and it was clear i was not a local which was probably why i was treated that way. All i can say is i have over 30 people that work out of my NJ office just around the corner and i will be advising them not to step foot in such a horrible place.

REVIEW AS EVENT SPACE ONLY (SECRET TEA ROOM):…read more I attended a baby shower held at the DeBary Inn in Summit last weekend. This was my first time inside the building, which was built circa 1880, and also at a Cream Tea. It was a lovely experience! Secret Tea Room is a pop-up company that creates classic English tea party experiences. They host events at four locations - DeBary Inn and Reeves-Reed Arboretum (Summit), Morven Museum and Gardens (Princeton), and Van Vleck Gardens (Montclair). Great attention to details! Everyone loved the table settings and chinaware. The loose leaf teas were wonderful; that day, we had an apple cider, Ceylon, and green tea. Then came out the tiers. Oh, the scones! The scones are baked on premise, so they were fresh and delicious. At one point, the hosts also walked around table to table with fresh scones from the oven. It was so nice. I overheard a guest from another table joke, "Oh, you can leave the tray of 17 right here for us please. Thank you!" lol Because it's December, the DeBary Inn was decorated for the holidays with a lighted tree. Many guests took selfies in the living room/greeting area. It was a cute venue and party concept for a baby shower!

I checked out early after issues related to the hotel's pantry area, which is located directly…read morebeside my room. Another guest -- whose room was actually inside the pantry space -- confronted my company late at night for making coffee, claiming we were being "too loud." While I understand the challenges of shared spaces, this setup should be clearly disclosed at booking, especially if it falls under a "run of the house" rate. Guests deserve to know they may be placed next to, or even within, an active pantry area with unavoidable noise and foot traffic. What made the situation worse was the complete absence of staff during evening hours. With no concierge or on‑site support, there was no way to report the incident, request assistance, or ensure our safety when faced with a potentially volatile guest. Being left to manage the confrontation alone was unacceptable and felt unsafe. What made the situation worse was the complete absence of staff during evening hours.

This hotel caters to business travelers during the week and wedding parties on the weekend…read more Well-priced for business, but some areas definitely lacking. - Cafe was woefully understaffed. Server at dinner was friendly, but food took over one hour with little apology or explanation. Food itself was way below expectations for standard cafe fare (pizza, sandwiches, salad). On another evening, bartender was borderline rude when asked if the bar had any chips, nuts, etc.: "No." - Workout accomodations also lacking for business hotel. Just four machines and one out of commission. Water dispenser empty. Jacuzzi colder than the pool. - On the upside, front desk staff was consistently cheerful and helpful - top 5% service.

They didn't book a suite of rooms but rather we all booked individually and still ended up fairly close to one another. The bar scene was great and offered us all an easy way to connect before and after the wedding festivities. On top of that, the rooms were large and well-stocked with everything you would need (iron, shampoo AND conditioner, shower cap, 2 kinds of soap, etc.), beds were comfortable and I even got a phone call 5 minutes after check-in from the front desk to see how the room was.

The grounds are well maintained with a picnic table in a shady grove that is very clean and inviting. The owner, Mr. Patel, is a no nonsense operator, which keeps the place in good condition for the next guests. He lets you know up front he will not tolerate bad behavior and as a consequence my five day stay was far better than I ever expected. It is right across the highway from an excellent pizza and burger restaurant considered the best in the county for good reason and is close to a ShopRite store. I will go back when I need a room in the area. Thanks Mr. Patel and your partner for a clean and safe affordable place to stay.

Bathrooms dated but clean. Thoughtful amenities like a hook on the shower/tub wall so you don't have to reach over the toilet to the towel bar. Kitchen was well arranged and had the essentials. The living room was small but nice enough for the four of us. I appreciated the amount of storage space and the large bedside tables. I could fit all my devices and the 2 outlets on each table were very useful. I wished the thermostat (placed in livingroom) could account for the bedrooms because it did get cold at night. I mentioned at check out because we were only there 2 nights and the thick bedding helped. I took advantage of the laundry room- they use an app for payment which is convenient. And the machines worked superb. The pool was not available. The gym had enough to keep you busy, towels provided and its 24 hr access. I used the Peloton bike-not bad at all. Breakfast was pretty good. They had enough options for the nut free and gluten free folks and even had chia pudding-yum. The staff kept everything well stocked, hot and cleaned spills often. I would suggest they needed someone to empty the trash more often. As the two they had in the food area filled up quickly both mornings. But thats really the only suggestion. Everyone was professional and smiled as they greeted you. If ever visiting you have to try nearby-veggie/fruit picking at Sun high orchard farms, eat at Jashan by dhaba and La Cucina in Denville That rounded out my experience. This hotel is my return list for sure.

This hotel has the potential to be great but due to lack of cleanliness, I feel it is going…read moredownhill quickly. When I was looking for a hotel in the area I did a bit of research and learned this homewood was recently renovated. The lobby is very nice and inviting along with the light color furniture selection and window detailing in the rooms. Homewood hotels always have a more spacious layout since they include kitchens and a living room area in either a studio or bedroom format. There is also a basketball court outside, an indoor pool, and 2 pelotons in the gym (per my coworker) for those that want to remain active during their stay. There is also onsite parking which I hear costs money from other reviews and I was not told that so waiting for that bill to come through... Now for the lack of cleanliness... I walked up to my room and there were 2 lady bugs right by my room number. I walked in my room and there was one on the wall. Since ladybugs can be an infestation, I figured switching rooms would not fix this. It was also late and I didn't feel like running around town to find another place to stay. Upon settling into the room I started finding hair in various places of all color... brown, blond, black, curly, wavy, and straight. My coffee table had a sticky spot on it, clearly not wiped throughly. There were brown/black spots on the ceiling and cabinets. I found a random pair of socks in the stairwell on my last morning as I was leaving. Also the cherry on the cake... my shower took FOREVER to heat up, to the point I thought it wasn't working. I made up my mind that I would suck it up and take a cold shower then check out first thing since I was exhausted and didn't feel like getting dressed and packing. Luckily as I was rushing to take my shower it started to get a little warmer and finally on the verge of hot, so I decided to stay another night and letting it run for 10 minutes before getting in (I would be pissed at this water bill if it were my actual home). Didn't remove a star for this but I do wish there were more takeaway options for breakfast like fruit. I grabbed a yogurt which worked but maybe some hotels are not doing fresh fruit anymore to minimize waste? I'll be staying here again soon since for longer trips my coworkers and I tend to need a kitchen to cook fresh meals (I hear the knives suck and my coworker bought her own) so I'll see if I just got a bad room or if the lack of cleanliness and lady bugs is consistent....

Returned today!!! Grand Eastonian owes us Nothing!!!! but a Big enough for 2 ppl Jetted Tub! but…read moretho individually That Jetted Tub was sooo relaxing the water pressure & shower pressure was PERFECT!!! for the shower you turn it up (FOR HOT ) because it's not marked H/C . Tori was so helpful, conversational each day & told us where to eat!. We LOOOVEd the layout it's like a maze! our room was in the back! .... The things I LOOOVEd the most was our jetted tub didn't work Tori & maintenance got on it the same day I told them! She even called to make sure I was okay with it before he came into our room(we were out on the town) I LOOOVE their policy of Quiet time 11pm-7am! not even a radio was playing when we got in at 2am! (Doors are locked by 10pm). LOOOVEd that they are highly secured! You have to use a code and a card swipe when coming in and leaving even at the elevator doors I believe! . Your room as well!.. The Classic Room with the jetted tub& shower was a niiice touch! The Bed soooo super comfy!! we didn't want to get up!! We slept so comfortably and A/C you can control it was heavenly. The Housekeeping was great!! We just asked for Towels they changed your whole room!! . All your belongings are there from start to your exit!! I know ppl always read about stuff being taken or unruly staff/management YOU GET NONE OF THAT HERE!!! everything's cleaned!!, kept safe and peaceful . They don't serve breakfast but it's such a cute Shop on the ground floor to get whatever you want to eat! . Overall I'd definitely recommend GE to anyone looking for a peaceful pleasant getaway or just a solo business trip without being disturbed .

Speaking of cocktail hour--it was a meal all by itself. The appetizers just kept coming: lamb chops, hot pretzels, a martini-glass mashed potato bar with all the toppings, fried macaroni balls, mini Philly cheesesteak sandwiches, a taco station, and so much more. Every bite was delicious, and the variety was incredible. Honestly, there was no need for a formal dinner after that feast. Just move straight to dessert and dancing. The hotel portion is large enough to accommodate lots of out-of-town guests, which was very convenient for our group. The rooms were spacious and the bathroom towels were soft and comfortable. I would have preferred feather pillows and a down comforter, but overall the accommodations were nice. The on-site bar was dangerously dark and was not open every night, which was a bit disappointing. The next morning's brunch had a good omelet station and yummy bacon. One thoughtful touch I really loved was the emblem stamped in the sand for the outdoor cigarette disposal area--it was a unique detail that stood out.
