I was pleased with this hotel the room could of done with a bit of a dust but it was ok. We had a superb view of the sea and the whole of Scarborough.

The food was very good but their was a lack of staff in the dining hall which meant all the tables were full of dirty pots and we had to tidy the table our self before we could eat.

The entertainment was very good 5 star quality.

We would definitely visit this hotel again.

My husband and I decide to have a couple of days break so we chose the Grand.

It was value for money as we thought we were just getting breakfast but we also got evening meal as well in the price.

The hotel was clean but it does need a make over.

We had a good break and with be going back again

Although we knew the location of The Grand Hotel was superb at the bargain price we paid, we had low expectations.My Mum, my 3 year old and myself were given a tradional welcome from the coach (Lees,and our luggage was helpfully taken to the room. Our room had obviously been refurbished. It was light, clean and quite modern and the view directly over the sea was amazing. Inclusive 3 course dinner was also a suprise. Breakfast too. The service was very efficient and the food was pretty good too. They did kids meals but the food was so good my chicken-nugget-eater child soon tucked into things like chicken breast with vegetables, roast beef and Yorkies followed by ice-cream or jam roly-poly and custard. Evenings were the only problem. Because we had a child with us we felt a little excluded as the entertainment obviously is aimed at older people. Hopefully, in time the Grand will take this into account. In the meantime, the hotel shop provides plenty of reading materials and a good selection of chocs to see you through...

The only thing grand about this hotel is the name. It is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in . The room was awful. It reminded me of Butlins budget accomodation before they did a refurb in the late 90s.
The suspended ceiling had had a hole put through with some blunt instrument to allow the light pulley through. The furnishing were sparse and cheap, there were none of the usual bathroom items like shampoo and soap, merely soap dispensers.
This would have been acceptable in a cheap B&B or hotel but not when the room was

We (3) stayed at the Royal in Scarborough recently, we found the hotel dirty, the food was not very warm and nor presented very well.

The whole hotel could do with a team of cleaners. The room we stayed in was shabby, in need of a clean and some fresh bedding covers. The bath had a scum line which we had to clean with toilet tissue before we could use it.

The list is endless.

I hope this is added to your web site page as people should hear both sides of peoples experiences.

The Grand Hotel in Scarborough is my favourite, the hotel staff are very friendly and helpful. The food is excellent as is the entertainment. The hotel overlooks the harbour and has fantastic views and is situated in a perfect place for any shopaholics with the town centre just around the corner. There is a lift within yards of the hotel to take you to the beach and busy seafront.
There is room for improvement on the cleanliness of the hotel but I have never had any problems with this in all the 30 years of visiting the place.
I will certainly continue taking my holidays at this hotel.
Great value for money!!

The website describes it a beautifull building and it certainly is ...from the outside.
To cut a long story short we just booked a weekend there at a total cost of

Stayed at this hotel with work. Our room had been redecorated and was very clean and nicely presented.

The food was of a very high standard and was very enjoyable. The location of this hotel cannot be beaten. Didn't see much of staff, but probably because i didn't need to.

Entertainment was of a very good standard.with excellent productions.
I have stayed at this hotel on two occassions and would not hesitate to do so again.
