My husband and I stayed in the Grand Hotel, Scarborough, from 13/05/13 to 17/05/13 inclusive. We have never ever experienced such appalling conditions regarding the cleanliness of the bedroom and bathroom in every respect. The corridor floors were stained and filthy, the paintwork and lifts were absolutely disgusting. The time spent queueing for the meals was unacceptable. The crockery and... More

Stayed here on Saturday 18th May. There were 4 of us in 2 rooms. Don't get me wrong we weren't expecting a lot due to the price but we were extremely disappointed to say the least!! Firstly, we arrived at the hotel and struggled to find a parking space, when we did find a space one of the girls ran... More

If you are happy to have a room with no natural light then this is the place for you. Great if you just want a bed then spend all your time outside. Did I mention the grand hollywood entrance with built in smoke machines? Ohh that was staff around the disabled entrance because people in wheelchairs want to passivley smoke.... More

At only £29 for B&B it does seem to good to be true and that is exactly what it is. In its day this hotel must have been stunning but apart from the communal areas is very badly in need of some attention. The room was very dated which probably gave the feel that the room was dirty and dull... More

Me and my friend stayed for one night at The Grand Hotel, and I am so glad it was just the one! Checking in was easy and quick enough, but the receptionist failed to inform us that our room was in the basement, so we were walking around for a while before another guest had to help us find our...

Seriously, anyone looking at booking this hotel I would certainly think again. The hotel room was appalling!! The first room we got put into 2016 (the dungeon) as the staff refer to it as, someone had used the toilet! And there were pubic hairs on the bed. We complained and got moved next door, which was just as bad. We... More

We paid 25 pound for a club room as we got it uograded because it was my birthday. The entrance was the shambles. There were people queing all over the place. I think they could make check in so much nicer if they used the space. The lifts take AGES. And are tiny! We got to our room. Was big,... More
