Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Grand Brighton is often praised for its prime location across from the beach and within walking distance of the main shopping area and the pier. Guests find the rooms spacious and comfortable, sometimes noting thoughtful touches like welcoming music and Nespresso machines. While some have mentioned worn spots or stains on the carpet in certain areas, the hotel's grand architecture and convenient access to the boulevard make it a popular choice, especially when considering the reasonable prices available in January.

Reasonable Stay

spacious room bar area smaller room faulty keys
My puppy was welcome in the bar area. She was even allowed there for breakfast. The room was spacious, so I really appreciated that.
The room was smaller than I expected. The keys did not work properly. I had to change the WiFi keys three times .

mixed feelings about the stay

bathrobe absence small toiletries
the valet parking at the front of the hotel worked well, especially since it was raining.
i found the lack of bathrobes quite disappointing. the small amount of toiletries and single biscuit felt stingy (i definitely expected more). it just did not feel like a proper five-star experience.

Decent experience overall

helpful staff bag safekeeping breakfast quality inoperable windows stuffy room uncomfortable ac
The staff were very polite and helpful. It was great to leave our bags in their safekeeping for four hours after checking out. The breakfast was lovely (especially the croissants!).
I found that the windows in my room could not be opened. The room and bathroom were too hot and stuffy. Having to rely solely on ac is not very comfortable for breathing clearly.

Charming Stay!!!

attentive staff room upgrade best table guest relations
The staff was attentive, and my room was upgraded. I got pink champagne at my wedding meal and the best table in the restaurant overlooking the beach. Complimentary Buck's Fizz was available at breakfast with the best seats in the restaurant. It was all AMAZING!!! Sandra Flanagan, head of guest relations, arranged it all, and Mauro Cerone, head restaurant manager, was our witness.
The floor was a bit noisy due to some generator. I could hear it through the windows. This disturbed my sleep a little and the fire alarm was flashing.

generally acceptable stay

high quality bedding comfortable mattress fantastic location worn spots stained carpet unclean bathroom
The bedding felt high quality, i appreciated the comfortable mattress. medium firmness pillows allowed using two without discomfort (which is not often the case). the location was fantastic. It was directly opposite the beach. a variety of amenities were around the hotel, i could reach them by walking.
I noticed the hotel seemed somewhat worn in places. there were worn spots on the carpet on several floors. They had been covered with tape. my superior room had large stains on the carpet. The windows were not clean. i found hairs in the bathroom upon arrival. They remained in the same spot the next day (it didn't seem to be thoroughly cleaned).

The guest rooms have been refurbished. They are now light, airy, and feature modern bathrooms. The beds are comfy! I am also glad the windows in the room can still be opened, which adds a nice touch for fresh air. I had dinner in the onsite restaurant. The service and food quality were very good.
