Mark, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Spacious comfortable room with a wonderful sea view. Big shower room. Disappointing breakfast selection, maybe cost-cutting. Some restaurant staff good, some need more training. Nightmare parking. Unable to leave car park due to another guest parking inches from my driver’s door.

Fantastic beach front location and views. Great service and food.
Ed, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It a beautiful historic beach front hotel. The aura of the history was everywhere. The front desk people were very sweet. The glass terrace facing the beach was an exquisite place to sit. The green lawn at the front was very peaceful place. The breakfast I did not like so much, but there were plenty of other options around
Victoria, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Ignoring the scaffolding you see as you park up, once inside the Grand was excellent. Staff were very attentive, especially the bar staff.. Food whilst a limited menu, was excellent. Parking can be an issue but there is a pay and display 5 mins away. Rooms very modern and views fantastic. Would stay again happily...

Grand Hotel Swanage

Brilliant hotel, fantastic position. Had a sea facing room which was superb. Lovely and attentive staff. Restaurant meals were very good with great quality ingredients.
3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We were upgraded when we arrived to a Seaview room. The room was a nice size, very clean with a wonderful view. Having steps straight onto a beautiful beach was amazing. The hotel staff very friendly and informative. We enjoyed using the Spa facilities. The only slight issue was there is very little parking however there is road side parking and if you do have to paid to park they do reimburse you.
Jenny, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a wonderful 3 day stay at the Grand. We booked the lowest cost room which was compact but comfortable. We had a great view over the sea. Staff were helpful and food was great. We enjoyed the sauna and hot tub, and its possible to walk to the beach for a plunge. Its a pleasant 10 minute walk to the town centre.
