Really sad looking hotel, not too fussed about the lobby etc as we were just stopping the night. Room was spacious but clearly not cleaned properly, once we moved the beds (closer to avoid kids falling out the bed) dirt, dust, crumbs and cobwebs were revealed. Really gross to be honest. Bathroom was spacious but again discoloration evident thanks to bacteria, ergo not cleaned well enough. Definitely would not recommend.

The Scarborough Grand Hotel it’s definitely worth a visit. It’s a magnificent hotel located above the beach that gives you amazing views of the coastline from the terrace.

Staffs were friendly, and services were good but the hotel is old and needs some repairs. However, the location is wonderful, and the hotel had arranged movies for kids, bingo night and a dance night show to entertain families, so we spent both evenings in the hotel. The movie and dance nights are free to attend, however, you have to pay for bingo. Overall, it was a reasonable place to visit with family. They had a full English breakfast, but I didn't enjoy it because I am Gluten-free.

Expected small room, fair for its price. Unfortunately, we booked a room with a window, but the window cannot be opened. Even if it could be opened, you wouldn’t want to, as there are bird nests outside, and the area around the window is covered in bird droppings. The window is also surrounded by white bird manure. Whether it’s day or night, you’ll constantly hear the chirping of birds since this is their habitat. The room itself was untidy, with bugs on the bed sheets, which were also covered in dust. Although the location is great, there are other hotel options nearby. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel, unless maye you choose a room without windows.

I'm quite disappointed, to be honest. Saw all the good reviews, expecting to be amazed. Unfortunately, the hotel itself is showing signs of age. For example, a lot of room doors are either dented or you can see cracks on the wood. The fans you find inside the cupboard - I turned the fan on, and dust was all over my face. The decor of the rooms is a bit outdated - I understand that the hotel is trying to keep its reputation with this particular choice of decor. However, I feel that repairing the often ageing furniture, doors and updating the general layout of the hotel might change things for the better. The WiFi is abysmal in the rooms it requires a payment - however WiFi in the common areas such as reception is good. Room definitely needs a good clean by the housekeepers and keeping all the repairs up to date will keep the hotel's solid reputation. The door also looked like it was kicked or punched and the bathroom had cracks everywhere - the shower floor is a bit odd becasue when you shower the water spills outside instead of flowing down and out plumbing. Breakfast was good, the usual english breakfast options. All in all was an average stay but proximity to town centre is good. That's all.
