The Grenville Hotel and Restaurant

It was the perfect choice for us to get married at the Grenville. I spent most childhood summers at the Jersey Shore, and my husband even proposed to me on this beach at sunrise. Our 50-guest wedding was scheduled over three days: rehearsal dinner Friday night, wedding Saturday, and farewell brunch Sunday morning. Everything except the rehearsal dinner took place at the Grenville. Every hotel room was occupied with our guests, so the whole weekend felt like one big sleepover! Maureen, Harry, and Patti from the Grenville really came to feel like family throughout this process. Maureen and I were in regular communication about plans and details, and she was incredibly lovely and easy to work with. For food, We loved their h’or d'oeuvres during cocktail hour. During the reception dinner, the banquet tables were set up horseshoe-style, so it was like one big family dinner. The Grenville provides an amazing menu as part of their wedding package. We had two tastings in the months leading up the wedding, to finalize our menu. We had a fabulous time working with the owner and head chef Harry, to finalize our menu that included one meat option (Chicken Francaise with Whipped Potatoes & Mixed Vegetables), one vegetarian option (Fusilli alla Vodka with Spinach, Asparagus, & Zucchini), and one vegan option (Impossible Beef Wellington with Roast Potatoes & Mixed Vegetables). For much of our reception, our guests were so happy sitting on the veranda enjoying the rain. People were cozied up in blankets around the fire pit, and having long relaxed conversations with each other. My husband and I found ourselves thinking how lucky we were to be married in such a lovely place.

We had an amazing dinner at the Granville Hotel with my wife and friends last night. The dining room was beautifully set with a cozy fireplace, extensive menu, and specials. We called a few minutes before we arrived, and a table was set and ready next to the fireplace with menus. We were seated promptly- for dinner enjoyed garlic shrimp, seabass, chicken, and pan seared North Atlantic salmon with crusted sauce and side mango chutney and the rack of lamb. ( beautifully prepared) - i’ll entries received a house salad with choice of dressing. Desserts included cheesecake, Keylime pie, snickers, and chocolate cake, all shared among us. Surprisingly, they weren't busy on a Friday night.It's a perfect spot for a quiet dinner, (yes you can talk and and hear each other - and out 2 hours for dinner passed quickly, and was very pleasant. Everything was without the hustle of other places in Point Pleasant Beach. Plus, it's BYOB! Give Grenville a call for a lovely dining experience. If you're considering staying over, they have 28 rooms just and are a block from the ocean- Say hi to Harry, he the welcoming innkeeper.

Love the Victorian style, the guest service was extremely good . The room was very clean and simple with a fridge. Coffee and orange juice at the front desk, and a continental breakfast was well stocked. Sorry we missed the brunch, but we heard it was good. Love the history of the place , but we did not see or hear the spooky on goings through the night. Just to make note the beds are on the hard side, but we are use to memory foam . Thank you for a great stay

A small alumni group of us (8) with our significant others met at the Grenville Hotel. We planned a mid week two night stay that included a gala dinner with a "BYOB cocktail hour." The staff at the hotel were very accommodating and made our stay very enjoyable and memorable. The hotel is circa 1890's, has an elevator and large rooms. We found the beds were comfortable, the food very good and the location perfect for our stay on the Jersey Shore.

We had my daughter’s bridal shower there this past weekend outside on the porch for about 30 people. The staff could not have been more helpful and accommodating. The luncheon menu offer was varied and all agreed the food was very delicious and most plentiful. The event went off without a hitch and we all had a wonderful time. Thank you Grenville, grande dame of Bayhead!

We love the Grenville, Harry, his family and staff truly make you feel like family in this elegant Victorian gem right beside the ocean. As a veteran hospitality professional, I can attest to the extraordinary level of service and quality in the Grenville. The dining is exceptional, the rooms are well appointed and the shower alone is worth the stay!! We’re coming back in week!!

My son and his wife were recently married at the Mantoloking Yacht Club. Several months ago, my wife and I searched for a place nearby where we could not only stay for a few nights, but where we could also host the wedding rehearsal dinner. We were fortunate to find the Grenville Hotel in Bay Head and are so glad we chose them. Maureen, Patti and their entire staff could not have been more welcoming and accommodating. The booking and menu selection processes were easy and straightforward and the rehearsal dinner (for a total of 42 people!) came off without a hitch. The food and service were excellent, and we received many compliments from our guests. Lisa, Gerri - and all the others taking care of us - were helpful, friendly and professional. They were even able to accommodate our Welcome Party afterwards for all the invited guests. We were outside on their spacious veranda on a beautiful night and it could not have gone any better. As we were checking out and getting ready to leave on Sunday morning, Patti said it almost felt like we were family. That's exactly how we felt, and we highly recommend the Grenville Hotel.

BEWARE!! I stayed here once and wanted to stay again. I booked a reservation about 2 months in advance, and then they reached out to me on SOCIAL MEDIA 3 DAYS BEFORE THE BOOKING to tell me my reservation was terminated because of their poor management, staffing and issues on their end. So, then I called and Maureen again responded through social media. I’ve never dealt with something like this in my life. It was so unprofessional, inconsiderate and rude. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

Great nostalgic, Comfortable, Clean and pleasant place to stay. Maureen, Patty and the entire staff are very friendly, Polite, courteous and attentive. Had my wedding on 10/9/22 and it was absolutely flawless, Gerry and the whole serving staff did an Excellent job, The Food Was Fantastic, Dessert was to die for & Everyone who attended had an absolute wonderful time. The Room was quaint, Comfortable and very clean. So if you live in Jersey or just visiting from out of town Stop by Bay Head N.J and Stay at the Grenville. Beach is 2 blocks away and we had our wedding ceremony there, and plenty to Eat and do in the Area .ENJOY...
