This iconic Brighton landmark sadly disappoints. The imposing facade, beautifully restored after the IRA bombed the hotel in the 80s and the breathtaking lobby with its classic staircase are the beginning but also unfortunately the end of the hotel's charm. We stayed for a wedding and saw inside a number of the rooms. Some were best described as fading grandeur,... More

I stayed in The Grand when attending a conference at the Brighton Centre so the location was fantastic with only a 2 minute walk to the venue. The staff were fantastic and really friendly, they all took the time to speak to my 8 year old son and made him feel at home. Another plus was the free wifi and... More

We went to The Grand as a party of seven for a special occasion on Saturday. Our first disappointment was to be seated in the King's Restaurant as opposed to being in the Victoria lounge, bar and terrace. The atmosphere was soulless and it was clear the restaurant had been greedy in terms of accepting more bookings when it simply... More

Just returned from staying at "The Grand" was extremely dissappointed. The building is old and needs serious refurbishment. I was on the 1st floor and struggled to get any sleep. The floor creeked terribly. The staff were great and nothing was a bother. The furniture was soo old and peeling. The Hilton was next door and wished I had booked... More

I wasn’t sure what to expect of the Grand – would it be ‘grand’. Well it depends what you mean; if you think this should (in hotel terms) mean new, shiny, creak free with uber fashionable room gadgets, fixtures and fittings then you will be disappointed. If however, like me, you prefer it to be beautiful, comfortable, spacious with magnificent... More

On arrival, we were totally blanked by the concierge staff, reception staff appeared a little more friendly .... but only just ! We got allocated a room on the third floor,... More

We have always wanted to stay at the Grand Hotel, however we were very disappointed with our stay on the 19 January 2012 . The staff were very smart and attentive, booking in was easy with an offer to upgrade to a suite for an extra £30.00, which we took. We went to the public bar for a much needed... More

We booked a night at The Grand, as we had arranged a night out with friends in Brighton. We had always wanted to try it, and we were not dissapointed. The room we were given was number 720, and overlooked the sea, although the room was a little tired, it was certainly big, and the bed was very comfortable. We... More
