grand hotel tynemouth in North Tyneside

We ate in the restaurant. Food, wine and service all very good. We eat here fairly often and always leave contented.

One of my favourite hotels. It has class and the most fantastic views of the beach across the road. The rooms have recently been renovated and are great. I think there are still renovations being carried out. It has the most fantastic sweeping staircase. I would prefer coffee to be in a pot at your table rather than a large flask to pour your own at breakfast.

The only negative thing I can say is that there should be coffee machines in the rooms and not instant coffee.

Lovely pint of Aspalls. Very clean. Brilliant views.

Love staying at the Grand. Cannot fault staff in any part of the hotel. Efficient, friendly can’t do enough to help.

The Grand Hotel is a great place with beautiful architecture that caters well

Nice room, decent bar, great breakfast, stunning location and a gem of a little town to find. Comfy bed and well equipped room.

After a long walk on a very windy afternoon we were very thankful to sink into very comfortable armchairs and then appreciated lovely cups of tea, together with GF scones jam and butter! Staff were very welcoming and attentive. Thank you very much!

Had afternoon tea for a birthday, seeing the positive reviews I thought it would be amazing. It wasn't, it was ok at best. Staff were great and also the location. Had better half the price.

Great stay, very friendly staff, and it's a 5 from me

Loved it would go back in warmer weather

I don’t usually leave reviews but I stayed here for one night for my partners birthday and everything was lovely, the room was spacious and comfortable and breakfast was delicious. The staff were absolutely lovely too!

It is a beautiful building in a fantastic location. Very friendly and helpful staff. Room was large, well appointed, and was very clean.

Being in this hotel is an outstanding experience! Built in 1872 - the charme of that time is everywhere. You will expect Miss Marple to stay there. So beautiful! The hotel rooms have all been renovated, are really good but kept the unique style of "The Grand". Enjoy your breakfast with a beautiful view to the sea - what a start of the day! I am here again for my 18th stay and it still thrills me 😊

Lovely hotel, friendly staff and good food.

Good selection of beers, great food and very friendly staff.

Room was lovely, clean and comfortable, staff are so friendly, helpful always smiling and interested in us. Breakfast was delicious. Definitely come back. Thankyou everyone

We had a fabulous afternoon tea. Very accommodating for food Allergies and intolerances.

Recently updated victorian splendour overlooking longsands Beach. Spacious rooms and bathrooms. Excellent freshly cooked breakfast, nice pub at the back with great bar meals. Elegant lounge bar at the front. Reasonable prices.

30 minute wait for a coffee. Very slow.

Fairly limited menu (it was 30th Dec) but the food was excellent and the service was quick and efficient. There's no cask ale in the bar but you can get it in the back bar (Copperfield's) where there's a well kept selection including local brews. Once you know cask is available you can order in the restaurant. Décor is nice without being over bling and it's a popular wedding venue. The Grand deserves it's name.

Gorgeous hotel, good very good. Excellent staff service. Lovely bedrooms.

Great Christmas Lunch: ingredients, menu, service all excellent. Jose gave us wonderful attention. Thanks

This is our second home. My wife and I got got married here, two minutes walk from our home. It's our chill place when we want a quiet bottle of exquisite wine, and a great place to meet on a weekend for coffee and cakes

Afternoon tea in elegant surroundings with a beautiful sea view, superb. Great atmosphere.

We had an awesome night at the hotel, woke up to snow & a view over the sea

Delicious freshly cooked Christmas 3 course lunch. Great service, lovely ambience, very festive.

Lovely people, lovely food, great beers. Great location in a grand old building.

Our stay in October at the hotel exceeded our expectations. The quality of the room and bathroom seemed like brand new. The breakfast was incredible and the staff very friendly especially Jose in the restaurant. Superb views in both the room and the common areas. The hotel is a short walking distance to center and public transport. We will definitely go back.

Stopped at the Grand in Tynemouth for a work trip, but was completely in awe of this classic hotel, a hidden gem! I highly recommend it; I loved staying here and will most revisit!!

Quite simply the best hotel at the coast.

Absolutely delightful, beautiful hotel, visited for a wedding being held there, it was brilliant, couldn’t fault it. Room was comfortable, clean and homely, we had a family suite in the main hotel which had two rooms and a balcony, it was perfect. Warm and welcoming place, tastefully decorated and in keeping with the age of the building, modern without being devoid of its period features. Staff were lovely and so helpful. Loved our stay here really felt at ease and would without a doubt recommend it for a function and/or a stay. Food was very nice and a great selection of drinks.

Great hotel and the view from the front of the hotel is beautiful

We stayed here for the second time . Whilst visiting our daughter. Love the atmosphere of this fabulous hotel Tynemouth is such a beautiful place.

Fabulous couple of days at the hotel, for us everything and everyone was as it should be, no issues at all and looking forward to returning at some point.

Fantastic location but this is a very mediocre hotel which is about what you might expect 20 years ago. Lack of investment shows everywhere. I Paid over £170 per night, had an amazing view of this beautiful coastline but everything else just disappoints. The shower for example is like a budget IBIS. Probably costs too much to get this beautiful building to the level you would like but you never know

Cozy, comfortable place to pop into for a snack and a drink. Lovely staff, always clean and tidy.

Good friendly staff the hotel bar food more than adequate and well presented

Afternoon tea absolutely beautiful in gorgeous settings with lovely staff .

Always a great place to meet for coffee,drinks and food

Nice enough place to stay, parking is a pain though.

The afternoon tea is lovely would recomend it to anyone

Beautiful hotel staff extremely nice and a warm welcome ……near all facilities …..close to metro ……..

An old traditional hotel that lives on its location, which is excellent. We had a large sea facing room that was comfortable. However, for the price I would hope that it would have good WiFi which it didn't, and that the bathroom would be better, all the usual issues of no surfaces to put anything and an extremely poor shower. There is currently no competition in Tynemouth which is very lucky for the Grand. Unfortunately I left a charger and despite paying for it to be posted out I had to chase up ten days later to find out what had happened only to discover they hadn't got round to posting it out.......... As I say, it is a very good location and the public rooms have an old world charm ( with old world clientele ) to match.

Stilvolles Hotel, gute Lage, wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt!

Very good traditional sea front hotel. Nice size room with view over the bay. Great food. Had evening meal and breakfast both were of a good standard. Limited parking. Would stay here again.

New to tynemouth. Absolutely loved the place . Hotel was ace 👌

Stayed here with my mum in room 333 on the 19th September. Lovely hotel, nice and quiet and just on the doorstep of the beach. Staff were lovely , friendly and helpful. Room was amazing and the views from the window were lovely. The breakfast was delicious and piping hot. Lovely service from the staff here all round

Nice enough place, friendly staff.

Beautifully renovated hotel. Decor definitely "Grand". Hotel staff very efficient and friendly. Breakfasts were very good. Unfortunately the restaurant was not open Mon, Tues and Wed, while we were there.

Brilliant hotel,, really friendly staff. Breakfast was fantastic with fresh ingredients would definitely stay again.

I always knew when I get married, it would be at the Grand Hotel. The building has so much character and the setting is just magical! I have to say the Grand Hotel did an amazing job of our August wedding and left us walking away 100% happy with our choice of location. I would like to say a big shout out to all the staff, from the house keepers to the waiting staff, especially to Demi and Helen, who made our day so perfect! Mark and Michael Smith

Met a friend for coffee. Great company, lovely surroundings, great view, polite and friendly staff what more could you ask for?! Maybe sunny weather as it was raining but that didn't spoil the view.

Cannot rate rooms as we did not stay there. Food and service were excellent.

The food was very good, although the service was a little slow. Definitely an older person's venue.

Always have good service and great views from the lounge

Had sunday lunch,one of the best Sunday lunches we have had,I had braised beef my wife had turkey ,my beef melted in the mouth and the gravy was delicious all veg was cooked perfectly,and deserts were also lovely great value too

Sehr schön ... Am Strand gelegen...

Breakfast lovely and rooms very clean and modern. The only sad thing understandably as an old hotel with lots of character no AC. After warm weather the room was humid but for second night they added a fan to help. Would stay again/will stay again!

Lush place for a coffee on a rainy Tynemouth afternoon

Fabulous hotel. We loved it and our room had the best view.

Beautiful room overlooking sea. Excellent coffee.

230622 have been here for a two nights since 20th to 22nd of June 2023. Wish to come back.

Lovely view rooms were very well presented cleaned when required, every day if needed. Excellent food and all the staff were friendly curious and professional. Location is right on the seafront - sea view rooms are a bonus and worth the extra.

Not for families. Two adults and two kids (baby and toddler) stuck in a completely separate side annex, top floor, up two flights of stairs and no lift with all of the gear required for families. Only family room available faces the bins and air conditioning units, and is adjacent to the event terrace which, if you’re trying to get a baby to sleep in a hot, no AC no fan room (so you can’t close the windows), is trying to say the least with activity up until 10pm. Furniture at least 30 years old in the room as well. Won’t be back.

Lovely lunch, excellent polite staff plus nice view of the sea, thanks,

Lovely hotel but only had coffee. One for the future

Great place to meet friends and just relax

Hotel was clean and comfortable, meals could have been better.

We went for afternoon tea as it was my birthday and it was gorgeous, its very elegant inside very old school, staff were lovely, couldn't fault it we even got parked right outside the front door

Right on the front 10 mins from the high street lots of pubs and lovely Sunday market in the train station. Would highly recommend

Comfortable room, Friendly staff and the food was good too.

1 of the best hotels I have stayed in

Great hotel and location lot of history

The views from the second floor beachfront room are amazing very tranquil. Food was delicious. Only fault no room service menu in the room.

Had afternoon tea, very nice, views out of the window, we're lovely.

Very good afternoon tea in the morning. Staff were super friendly. Scones lovely and moist. Sandwiches were high quality.

Great views friendly staff nice lager

Beautiful place to stay and relax

The food has gone very downhill in the last couple of months. They changed the drawing room menu and we ordered the turkey panini which was reheated and tasted awful. The fruit scones used to be delicious but today they were half the size reheated and soggy and unfortunately one of them had a hair in it. I'm not sure if they changed chefs. Such a pity because we visited nearly every weekend but won't be returning.

Good service and lovely friendly staff.

Thoroughly enjoyed this stay. Just wish it was longer amazing sea view from the room.

Overpriced afternoon tea. £25 you get 4 finger slice sandwiches, 2 small scones and 3 tiny puddings.

Fabulous location, extremely friendly staff, absolutely wonderful food especiallythe breakfadt, loved the separate bar at the back, would definitely recommend

5 star Sunday lunch served by 5 star staff welldone

A truly timeless classic brittish hotel. Excellent helpful friendly staff. The perfect location overlooking the beach. We love it here.

Had a lovely night here. The room was very spacious and had fantastic views. Breakfast was nice too

An amazing hotel in a beautiful location

Really nice hotel. Very limited parking. Beware the staircase its beautiful but old, uneven and an horrific carpet on it.

Lovely hotel really comfortable great food great service

My friend and I visited the Grand Hotel this afternoon. It's years since I've been. The Hotel looks like it's had a total refurb, very fresh, clean with beautiful decor. We both had the scones with strawberry jam and of course it has to be clotted cream. Absolutely delicious. I had a biscoff latte, which was very tasty. The staff were great, one in particular, a lovely young man called Cameron. He was friendly and efficient, a credit to himself and the Hotel..

Went yesterday for afternoon tea. We had gift token with the value of £70. Afternoon tea consisted of two tiny sandwiches, one scone and two shop bought small cakes for £25 pp. I asked for coffee, which was extra. Had afternoon tea and there was around £15 left on our gift voucher, when we asked for the money or voucher to the value they became very defensive and said no money/voucher back. With a young girl on reception being Very rude. Safe to say we will never visit again

Wonderful building with amazing views. Scrumptious food 😋

I had my evening wedding reception here and I cannot praise the venue and the staff enough! The food was amazing, the bat staff were lovely and the overall experience is one I will treasure for the rest of my life!

Just popped in for a coffee lovely lounge great service

Visited restaurant and bar/lounge. Quality service and relaxed atmosphere.

Visited the lounge bar today with my parents for lunch. The venue was highly recommended by my mother who had eaten there on many occasions however today that was not the case . We ordered two soups and a turkey sandwich and teas . The sandwich was inedible tasting awful from the heating process of creating a panini ....some fillings should just not be reheated ..I also tried the sandwich as my mother was unable to eat it and it was very unpleasant. I knew my mother would not complain but as the lunch had been her treat I spoke to the barman . He was very pleasant and thanked me for bringing the issue to the attention of staff and he would mention it in the kitchen . However not one member of staff approached my parents with any authority to provide her with another meal or issue a refund or make it clear she could order another meal with no extra charge . I feel that in these days a treat of eating out should be a positive experiences and food should reflect the prices . As pensioners my parents can ill afford to waste their money but we will not be returning to The Grand any time soon! Monday 16th January 2.00 pm to 3.00pm

Superb Sunday lunch, staff very attentive and food was delicious, perfect setting, thank-you

Beautiful hotel right by the bay. Rooms could do with updating but decent overall!

Excellent venue for a friends wedding. Views are stunning ! Really clean and tidy. Staff were amazing and the downstairs bar/function room was great. Beer was lovely. Hope to be back again !
