An historic building but its well maintained. Cleanliness was good, food was good. Easy walk to everywhere in Newcastle (& we're over 70). Love the atmosphere, comfy beds & pillows! Easy booking & friendly staff gave excellent service. Nothing was a problem, everything explained. Only improvement would be better towels. Great memories,thanks!

Close to beach and tram line in a quite hilly area. Old style accommodation in need of some TLC. Bedroom quite big with large veranda, no breakfast available but a few cafes nearby. In a quiet area, but tram runs regularly to Interchange..

The Grand Hotel is an old property that is well maintained and very clean. Whilst my room was old, it was surprisingly quiet, comfortable and clean with quality bed linen. I had a fabulous sleep and would definitely recommend this hotel and yes I would return.
