Great value in Victorian magnificence

Iconic Victorian splendor, in arguably the best location in Scarborough. Great value, clean rooms and comfortable beds. Near to all amenites. Parking at NCP just a short walk away at preferential 50% rate for hotel guests with discount code.

2/10 Poor

Absolutely terrible hotel
Stephen, 1-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?
Tara, 2-night trip

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.
Ian, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Seagulls. Seagulls and more seagulls. All night noise
Brian, 1-night trip

Perfect central spot for everything we needed. Would definitely rebook & stay again!!
Tracey, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.
Ruth, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.
Claire, 1-night trip

Only negative was noisy gulls.

Out dated decor a bit run down
Robert, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Sad

The hotel is very tired, needs a lot of TLC. The restaurant where we had breakfast was scruffy and dirty, although the breakfast itself was good. The room was more like a hostel, very basic. Bathroom floor,toilet and shower was dirty. Had to unplug the fridge (randomly placed, our friends room next door didn't have one)to plug in the kettle. The towels and bed linen were clean. Such a shame for an iconic old hotel which in its heyday would have been stunning.
