This is obviously an older hotel but management works hard to make residents feel welcome. We only stayed one night but were upgraded (as the hotel had filled up before we arrived) and had a great room with views up and down the promenade. The reception staff were really excellent and restaurant food and service was also very good. Would... More

My wife & I have just returned from a five day break at the Grand Atlantic Hotel, Weston-Super-Mare, which was most enjoyable. As with most Shearings' Hotels some areas look a bit tired and dated but we paid for a sea view room and got one on the first floor which was very roomy with two large windows, a comfortable... More

As you turn onto the seafront The Grand Atlantic makes it's presence known, it stands out from the rest of the newer buildings. It has two pointed turrets and would look at home in a magical Harry Potter movie. Built originally as school and then transformed into a hotel, once owned by trust house fourty. As a youngster it was... More

If you are booked into Room 309, go and have a look at it first. The seals in the double-glazing are shot, so you look at the sea view through streaky condensation, and the wall-paper under the lefthand window is all but dropping off. The carpet to the left of it is dirty and there seems to be a white... More

My partner and I stayed at this hotel for five days on a Shearings self-drive holiday and were overall very pleased with our stay. We could not fault the staff in any way and unlike some other Shearings hotels the restaurant did not look like a canteen. It was spacious, beautifully set out and the food was very nicely presented,... More

A dated hotel, which in my opinion does not match the cost to stay there. Better hotels / B+B's in Weston and surrounding areas. The rooms need an update. Very helpful and friendly chamber staff. It is in a very good location for the town centre and directly on the seafront.
