The Grand Hotel Eastbourne
Latest Reviews
The Grand promises and delivers a traditional, high quality hotel experience. The service is excellent, with staff who are friendly, impeccably polite and knowledgeable. The grandeur of the building impresses and the breakfasts are not to be missed.

Lovely couple of nights. Special treat as very expensive. Only disadvantage for us were the few steps down to the swimming pool which would be extremely difficult for anyone disabled/with mobility problems. Great hotel with lovely food

Very good visit. We were ready for a break and we enjoyed the facilities we used.
Take in the space available for guests relaxation and you will be quietly satisfied.
Enjoy the staff service as they are trained to look after you.

My wife an I went for an anniversary break to The Grand staff very friendly and couldn’t do enough for you the indoor pool was pleasant albeit a tad hot The Grand is a 5 star luxury hotel but there are cracks the tables in dining rooms tops are loose and wobbly tea pots are not very clean badly stained on the inside rooms are standard and not very luxurious dust on top of wardrobe and no air conditioning only a fan car park at front of hotel is not too big had to park in road not the sort of thing you expect from a 5 star hotel one last thing we could not fault the service or the food

Excellent service and surroundings. Fabulous breakfast. Enjoyed room service - a real treat. The porters were very friendly and did a great job parking our car and bringing it to entrance for us. Loved have coffee in the lounge and cream tea in the afternoon.

Catering let the standard down from overall 5 stars to only 4.
Additional items ordered with Sunday breakfast - poached egg arrived after 20 mins and kidneys arrived ten mins after we had finished and were well over cooked.
Special meal in Garden Restaurant on Monday evening was not worthy by a long way from the price tag of £150 for two courses and a bottle of wine for the two of us. Huge fillet steak with little flavour surrounded by undercooked veg including supposedly roasted potatoes and carrots which my wife has declined. The waiter commented that they were part of the vegetable medley, so? The crepe suzettes had the liquids virtually boiled away leaving an inadequate sauce for the poor crepes. No way could we recommend to others.

This is a very special hotel that offers the best standards in a lovely location. Both restaurants are good but the Mirabelle offers great food and a wonderful ambiance. The lounge is a great place to take in the sea view with a glass of something.

Wonderful room and excellent location.
Breakfast was average and on Sunday morning the service was a bit slow (maybe understaffed?). Wifi in room almost non-existing.
Very grand atmosphere and friendly staff

Without being outdated, the hotel is able to maintain its historical essence. The staff treats you like royalty, they make you feel special. All smiles. Love the outfits the staff wear, they are very up to date and look professional. Gym could use some new machines but overall the facilities were nice. I was amazed by the "swimsuit dryer", never seen anything like that before.

The Grand hotel certainly lives up to its name! It was one of the most impressive hotels I’ve stayed in. We paid only £99 each for overnight + 1 express treatment each - brill value for money! The staff were so welcoming and couldn’t help you enough. There were concierges who were more than willing to offer assistance at all times. I had a back massage with Alice, and I must say it’s probably the best massage I’ve ever had. The spa itself was very welcoming and provided towels. Robes and slippers are provided in your room and the lift goes straight down to the spa so you’re not in any public places in a robe. Would definitely recommend for a little get away. I’d probably book a longer treatment next time though!

I wanted to book a special long weekend for my wife's birthday and was not disappointed, what a fantastic break we had. I would highly recommend the hotel, nothing was too much trouble and the staff were very friendly and helpful, just brilliant.

Excellent staff.
Upgraded to a side Sea view room which was a nice size, however mattress far too soft with no support. Despite turning radiators off and window open the room was warm with no air-con. Would be stifling in summer months.
Food was good. Excellent breakfast except for the eggs which were poached despite requesting fried. All in all a lovely hotel but pricey.

I took my mother, who is blind, here for a short break and we both had a lovely time. The staff could not have been more helpful and knowledgeable. We loved the delicious meals we had in The Mirabelle restaurant. I enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere of the health club and the indoor pool was just wonderful. We will be returning

I look forward to staying at The Grand - delightful, smiling and knowledgeable staff who actually anticipate guests' needs and have pride in working at this hotel. Sleep so well there as well, which can always be a worry when staying away from home. One has a feeling of being well-looked after and I certainly feel very "chilled out" as I needed a well overdue rest. I will be back at next opportunity!

Lovely hotel, wonderful beds and pillows.Food very good especially the hot/cold buffet breakfast which keeps you going for hours. Nothing too much trouble for the kind and attentive staff . Room slightly old fashioned but has all the main ingredients. Location of the wide, white hotel is on the seafront so you can have coffee watching out over the English Channel and then go for a wonderful walk in the fresh sea air.

I arrived feeling incredibly stressed and unwell and left feeling refreshed and rejuvenated thanks to the entire team at the hotel. The hotel was very clean throughout and service super, nothing was too much trouble.

I only had a one night stay with my friend. From the time we arrived to check out, the service was excellent. Everybody was friendly and courteous. I had called ahead to advise my friend could not walk far. They had reserved a parking space very close to the door. The doorman came straight over and helped us. Check in was very quick. Our room was huge with a view over the pool and out to sea. Can’t wait to stay again.

This is a lovely hotel. The staff were all very friendly and courteous. Our room was excellent with great amenities, and a very comfortable bed. Our breakfast was very good. The car park was very busy on arrival but staff outside sorted out a parking space for us very quickly.
