Scene
There's little scene to speak of at this family-friendly hotel.
With no on-site dining -- save the daily continental breakfast -- or bar options, there's not a whole lot happening at the Best Western Plus Grand Strand Inn & Suites. Guests will find beach, pools, relaxation -- all the basics -- plus on-site fishing and scuba diving.
Location
Across the street from the beach and close to the airport and various attractions.
The Best Western Plus Grand Strand Inn & Suites' Central Myrtle Beach location means easy access to most attractions. It's a six-minute drive to Myrtle Beach International Airport, and across the street from the beach, with many restaurants and bars within walking distance. Family Kingdom Amusement Park is within a five-minute drive. Despite the central location and the hotel's close proximity to the busy road, the hotel manages to keep street noise to a minimum, even during the busy summer months.
Rooms
There are 19 different room options in three different buildings; one building is nonsmoking.
There are three building options for accommodations at the Best Western Plus Grand Strand Inn & Suites -- the Main Building, which is across the street from the beach and has rooms ranging from standard to three-bedroom penthouses; the Oceanfront Building, which has a range of room sizes -- every room has direct ocean views and private balconies with rocking chairs; and the Cottages and Penthouses, which have one-to-three bedroom units. Only the Oceanfront Building is completely nonsmoking. Many rooms have kitchens or kitchenettes, and all have refrigerators and coffeemakers. Rooms are clean, neat, and decorated in a tropical motif. All have flat-screen TVs with premium channels available.
