Helpful staff, good breakfast, comfortable room. There just are not enough parking spaces on site so one has to park in the street with a hotel supplied permit which is slightly inconvenient though we were always to find a spot close by.

The Grand is unique. It is old fashioned in a good way, meaning they do things properly. We have stayed many times and keep going back. Fantastic location, lovely rooms, wonderful staff, great atmosphere.

The hotel made a big effort to ensure this was a family friendly hotel for children. The children were provided with a gift bag at check in which they enjoyed and also milk and cookies before bed. The property was right on the beach and within walking distance of the pier and local shops so the location was great. Also 5 mins drive to Beach Head/Birling Gap. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The indoor pool was big and it was good that they did slots for families (we had the pool to ourselves). Breaksfast was also very good and generous

This was my 6th stay at the Grand and still very consistent in terms of excellent service in all areas, particularly the staff. My only small gripe was the continental breakfast wasn't as comprehensive as previous stays. Nevertheless having breakfast in such a dining area is still a treat.
