Thus truly was a wonderful break away. We needed some rest and relaxation and this more than provided that. I booked a sea view executive double room, so yes,it was expensive but worth every penny. The hotel is lovely, like a trip back in time to when guests were treated well. All staff were very polite and helpful, the level of service was discreet but good. The room was very bright and clean, bedding changed daily and turn down service in evening. Even though it was mid October I decided to try the outdoor pool, it was heated to a good temperature and was great. I did use the indoor pool and Jacuzzi as well but definitely enjoyed my outdoor swim most. Breakfast was buffet style, but all very fresh and hot. If you wanted fried or poached eggs these were done fresh or you could order off the menu. The communal areas are spotless and well staffed. We reaĺly didn't want to leave and was well worth every penny. Next time batteries need recharging we will definitely be returning.

The hotel provides comfort and pampering in a perfect location. I‘ve chosen it to be able to relax after a challenging walk. With sauna, steam room and whirlpool and afterwards a comfy room mission accomplished.

Elegant and relaxing night away. Genuinely friendly staff in every area, from our initial greeting at the front door to the lady maintaining the room. A lively few drinks in the bar with very attentive waiting staff (who located some delicious chocolates) and a great English breakfast! Outside pool was pleasantly warm still and our dog was made extremely welcome. Balcony was a treat and to hear waves crashing, enjoying a glass of wine was the perfect touch.

Had a lovely weekend, all staff amazing room upgrade fantastic. Great location , stayed here some years back hotel full of old world charm but looking about tied in places . For a 5 star hotel spa needs updateing . Still one of best places to stay on soth coast all staff truly out of this world . Stayed at grand in Brighton 4 or 5 times not sure why only 4 star when grand eastbourne is 5 star . Great hotel needs a bit of money spent on it now , can not wait to go back very relaxing weekend worth a visit

From the moment my family arrived we were looked after superbly well. The heated outdoor pool was a hit with the children and the warm and friendly manner of all the staff was wonderful.
We particularly liked the half term offer with milk and cookies at bed time and the family dining included. Would recommend and hopefully will be back soon

Very nice but dated. Would love too come back but let's see. Like the authenticity people were pleasant. In a rush in the morning but the water was cold. I'm sure if I had time they would of sorted it but didn't have that pleasure.

Recently attended a family babyshower party at The Grand. The private room we were in was absolutely beautiful and very smart. The party was only around 20 people but the room could have easily taken 50 or more. The waiting staff were very polite and attentive, offering a light lunch buffet as well as a afternoon tea style service.

Everyone felt very comfortable and relaxed which is exactly what you need for an event like that. Children in attendance were also catered for and although the waiting staff were attentive they didnt get in the way or prevent everyone from feeling relaxed.

Thank you to the team there, they did a fantastic job.

The room itself was very bright with huge windows running alongside one wall, a small stereo/blutooth speaker was provided for us to play our own music as well.

Set within such a great hotel, the event had a real grand feeling!

A very pleasant and enjoyable return to this hotel. From the initial booking to departure the management and staff were extremely helpful. Overall service was excellent. Our Dutch relatives we're particularly impressed by the dining room and the high standard of breakfast buffet. Will definitely come again.

My wife and I wanted to celebrate a special wedding anniversary in style. We decided to spend a night at the Grand Hotel, Eastbourne. This was a one off and based on its reputation we looked forward to enjoying the experience. It was very good. Our room was spacious although the bathroom was rather small and annoying. Manouevering around for two people wasn't easy. The hotel is obviously old, very traditional and not the most comfortable. However, the general ambience is very relaxing and is probably more attractive to clientele of a certain age. The staff are very polite, happy and helpful and they are the main strenght of the hotel.

I don't know how this hotel does it but every stay is utterly special! Nothing is too much trouble and the staff could not be more attentive and helpful. I love the care a disabled driver gets from the car parking team - takes away all worries about parking, luggage and "just needing a hand". Thanks guys!!

Venue is great, polite staff, good breakfast, room is comfortable and clean.

But very loud bangs/noises from doors all morning.

Housekeeping disturbed our do not disturb sign.

Spa was nice, lead up to outdoor pool could be improved.

Thoroughly recommend a stay at any time of the year. Good for walks on the promenade for all the family. The restaurants are great and there is lots to do and see in the neighbouring areas. Or just rest in the rooms!

Really impressive place. Huge. True trad luxury. Haven't explored Eastbourne before and thoroughly enjoyed the weekend. Great breakfast, outdoor pool to ourselves, pleasant spa. Snooker. Posh restaurants. Towner Art gallery, Beachy Head, Little Italy, and a grey foreboding October sea.

Perfect weekend getaway, staff very friendly and helpful and great location on the seafront. Food in the restaurant was excellent and breakfast was first class with plenty of choice in the buffet or full breakfast menu to chose from the kitchen.

Stayed here on my 50th and what a lovely surprise my wife had booked for us.

Totally luxurious and full of splendour with the style from a time gone by.

Excellent staff and friendly service from the doorman to the chambermaids. Highly recommended and relaxed hotel.
