Grand Ely Lodge Resort & Conference Center

Grand Ely Lodge is right across the street from our reception, so you can walk to the fun! To book, don't forgot to ask about our room block and use the discount code. This is the only hotel where we have rooms blocked for our wedding. Many of the motels/hotels in Ely have limited space, so they don't allow room blocks. Pet friendly (limited availability).
