This is the second time I have stayed. I like it so much that I am going back in Novemebr 09, with my wife, and will stay in one of the Ocean side rooms. more

I stayed here for work and was given a rather imposing four posted bed with a great view of the ocean as my room. It was nice to leave the window open and wake up to sounds of the ocean. The hotel building as the name suggests is quite grand. It struck me as a typically english sea side hotel.... more

I went to this hotel for a wedding. It advertises itself as four star and is relatively pricey and for that I bring my star rating down. The location is superb, Tynemouth is a lovely place and the view from the entrance of the hotel is superb. The reception area and public bars are also very nice. I stayed for... more

A good friend of mine had returned from the States with his wife and were staying in the hotel. On their last day of stay, they gave their friends and extended family a diner party there.

The entrance hall in the hotel has a really dramatic staircase and as the lift was not working and my room was on the top floor I got to see all of... more

We've stayed here twice, both times for a couple of nights. Its the sort of hotel that despite being perfectly situated overlooking a great beach, has you thinking that it might be kind of dowdy and uninteresting inside. A step inside the front door will change all that. It's a well modernised place run by helpful and enthusiastic staff. We... more

We walked Hadrian's wall, with everything organised for us by the wonderful Gary Reed of Hadrian's Wall Ltd, and he booked this for us. When we arrived in Tynemouth and asked locals for directions, they all said 'oh, you're in for a treat' and we were. We stayed in the quirky annexe next door and took our meals in the... more

WE stayed at the Grand 28th March to attend a wedding on the 29th. We stayed in an executive double room overlooking the sea. The room was clean and a good size. The bathroom was also spotless, although a little dated. The Website does not do this hotel justice. On the whole the staff were excellent, polite and pleasant except... more
