Just returned from three days at the Grand. The weather for October was very mild but the hotel were unable to cool the rooms. The pipes were hot even though the radiators were off. We had a room in a turret (326) which had plenty of windows but when we opened them the traffic noise was very bad. There was... more

Stayed here on a special deal (2 nights for the price of 1) so quite happy with price paid, but would not have been terribly happy if we had paid full price.

We went with my parents for a weekend break dinner, b&b and we all had a wonderful time. We upgraded to sea view, well worth it. The location was great for us as it's just outside town but near enough and flat enough to walk along the front. We found the staff very pleasant and helpful and the turn down... more
