Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about The Grand Hotel from previous guests about their experience.

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Grand Hotel offers some guests spacious rooms, sometimes with balconies providing spectacular views, and is conveniently located near the pier. The hotel's location allows for sea views from some rooms and the dining area, with mountain goats grazing on the slopes opposite some windows. While some found the decor a bit tired, the hotel's proximity to attractions like the pier makes it a memorable stay for many. Enjoy bingo and nostalgic seaside experiences, with easy access to the funfair, candy floss, and ice cream.

Excellent Stay

early check-in same floor polite staff birthday cake

I checked in early and was accommodated immediately. The staff relocated my elderly parents and me to the same floor. The staff offered excellent, helpful, and polite service. It was my father-in-law's birthday and the staff presented a cake with a candle while singing. I really appreciated that.

The breakfast included tinned fruit. I prefer fresh fruit.

helpful staff room upgrades bigger tv

The staff were very helpful. I especially appreciated the room cleaning lady on floor 3. she usually cleans floor 1, but nothing was too much trouble for her. i also liked the room upgrades, including a fridge, coffee machine, and a bigger tv.

the breakfast buffet was ok, but it could be better. i would prefer to eat in the center next time. it was not really good.

unsafe balcony broken dispenser

the hotel provided the basic necessities and the food was a decent value.

the balcony looked unsafe and needed repairs, it even had a dead bird there. the bathroom was not modern and the shower gel dispenser did not work right. i told the staff but they acted like they didn't care, i really did not like that at all.
