Le Grand Immersia Hotel [The Grand Immersia Hotel]

The plot device to get us, as players, into the game felt contrived and nonsensical, and I didn't like the cold open at all. The motivation for the whole thing was very poorly established. Once inside, the live actor didn't seem to serve any in-game purpose other than to create tension by artificially pausing our momentum and forcing us to hide. The room would have held up just fine without that. The room itself was solid, with some nice reveals and puzzles that fit the theme. I especially enjoyed the in-game clock and the unique way we stopped it.

WHAT 👏 A 👏 ROOM 👏 This room completely blew my expectations out of the water for what an escape room experience could be. The immersion, the suspense, the puzzles, the incorporation of the timer were so unbelievably well done and kept my partner and I ELATED for the drive back to Toronto from Laval. Highly highly recommend and my current no. 1.

I really like games where you feel connected to the plot. This one sucks you right in! Compared to other games in the area, the set feels weaker, but place this escape room anywhere else in the world and it would be an immediate top room.

Very fun game and story, plus a well designed set.

Beautiful setting, a good plot, and solid acting. It's worth seeing.

2 players, multiple puzzles, 1940s hotel setting.

Must do!

The real highlight of this room is the set design : it’s spacious, beautifully crafted, and full of thoughtful details ! The storyline is original and offers much more than just a simple hotel visit, with a great twist that keeps things engaging. The character involved adds a fun layer to the experience and really helps drive the narrative forward. Some of the puzzles felt a bit too easy or overly guided, but that didn’t take away from how much fun we had. Overall, we had a blast, and Immersia continues to be one of my favorite escape room companies 🫶

The set/decor for this game was nice, capturing the feeling of an older fancy hotel. The puzzles felt a little sparse for the space, though I guess that's a tradeoff between making them feel somewhat natural vs. implausibly packed - I would have preferred more puzzles, personally. I appreciated the optional sidequest puzzle, as well as the GM reminding us that it existed before we accidentally finished the main path. I didn't really like the story/theme - it didn't click for me, and the recorded actor got on my nerves, but that's probably just me.

From the moment the instructional video ended we were instantly immersed in the world of the Grand Immersia Hotel. This room is a must-play. Large and detailed space, committed actors, strong narrative, puzzles that made logical sense for the narrative, and even great choices of background music (I heard some iconic Sleep No More songs!). Some of the most impressive highlights were the timekeeper—amazing design choice—and the possibility of an alternative ending. While our team escaped with the main ending, simply discovering the alternative ending was magical in itself. Huge props to Immersia for this knockout game, I truly felt like the main character in a suspenseful action movie.
