You get what you pay for

The only good thing was the weather, The hotel is a little past its best
William, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

We often stay at The Grand. It is nothing fancy, but it is clean and welcoming. The bed was a little uncomfortable this time but the bedding and towels were pristine white. The room was quite small but no complaints. When you're paying less than £65 a night for a double room in the school summer holidays, what have you got to complain about?

Beds - terrible Room condition - stale smelling Secure room - my son pushed the locked door and it opened Bathroom - wife or kids wouldn’t shower as it was so dirty Sorry guys, wish I could say it was an enjoyable stay but it wasn’t

Nice hotel but check in ruined the experience

Check in was horrendous, nearly 1 and a half hours to check in, people jumping the queue, people vaping in the queue, only one person on checking people in which was just silly. No tea making gear in the room.

Short concert stay

Queue on arrival at half 3. Went quickly. Room was clean and tidy. Shower didn't work properly. The fan in bathroom didn't turn off with the light or a switch. Leakage from the shower head. The room door didn't feel secure. Otherwise the bed was comfy.

Poop in the hallways, very noisy, good shower

Well, on walking through the hallway there was actual faeces on the carpet spread everywhere. Went and informed the front desk who was aware and was "apparently" from a dog. The room was okay but the toilet kept making noises all night. Only 2 pillows that were quite plump and no extra blanket or bath mat etc. One great thing was the shower, even though the bathroom was smelly. Also, the seagulls will be noisy all night and wake you at 5am.

A great hotel, though dated

It is what it is. Fabulous hotel with amazing views. Communal areas have so much history. Drinks are very expensive, but it’s what you’d expect in a hotel. The rooms are dated, but very comfortable and perfectly adequate. Good value for money! Only one complaint, had to queue for over 30 minutes to book in and get key. Other than that a great stay!
Martin, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Tired and worn hotel

The hotel is really tired, the furniture is old and worn. Then again, this reflects in the cost of the room which was appropriate.
