Britannia Grand Hotel Scarborough

6/10 Okay

"Faded grandeur. Beautiful entrance and lobby and public areas. Rooms very dated and basic. Mould in shower, small room, poor and limited dated furniture. Nice staff. Probably value for what I paid. Only great issue… noise from plumbing. If rooms use their radiators and turn them up knocking sound reverberates around rooms, disturbing sleep. Mentioned to reception, not really interested. A lovely faded gem, and a place I’ve wanted to stay in for a while. So enjoyed experiencing a journey back to perhaps a different time. Did note however check in chaos when it was busy… queue round the lobby at one point, so best advice check in handy otherwise you are in for a long wait. "
