Dated, damp and overpriced. This property does not align with other hotels that advertise themselves as ‘five stars’. Moderate your expectations before you stay.

A beautiful hotel in a great location. Very impressive imposing building. Loved the outdoor swimming pool and the spa. Live music and singer in the evenings was a bonus! Doesn’t quite meet 5 stars for me though, perhaps 4 star more appropriate. Had to chase up for bath towels. One tiny bar of soap between the two of us for 4 days,cleaner left duster in our room, had to chase up toast at breakfast etc. Upon arrival we were allocated what must be one of their worst rooms - very small overlooking roof! Asked to change room and was allocated a better one quite promptly. Inside the hotel needs a refresh. It got very warm and stuffy in dining room and in bedrooms which don’t have a balcony.

A superb hotel, in a central location. Highly attentive and thoughtful staff. The interior areas were luxurious and felt like a historical discovery lay at every turn. Good choice of vegetarian and non-veggie food at breakfast. The only minor downside was the view from our room was over the inner side of the hotel which overlooked service areas - though at least it was blocked by a blind. Be prepared to pay extra for a sea view.

Grand stay at the Grand Hotel.
Whilst this hotel is expensive it’s a truly lovely experience to step back in time with the traditional decor and service, comfortable, clean rooms with both an indoor and outdoor pool, breakfast offers great variety, quality and service, dinner menu looks great for adults but not really for children.

Our stay was most enjoyable - we only had two observations: the first was that it was surprising that our room did not have air conditioning. The weather was very hot and we certainly needed it. The second was that it was odd to have to book an exact breakfast time. When on holiday it's nice not to set an alam and to get down to breakfast whenever ready!
