About

The Grand Brighton, a masterpiece of Victorian splendor with sumptuous Italian Renaissance style, is less than an hour from London, 25 minutes from Gatwick Airport, and under a mile from Brighton Train Station, easily accessible from the M25 and M23 motorways. Following a multi-million pound refurbishment, the hotel boasts renovated lounges, a cocktail bar, a restaurant, and 201 newly decorated guest rooms. Situated on Brighton's seafront, it offers panoramic sea views and is steps away from the Lanes, Brighton Pier, the Royal Pavilion, theaters, and vibrant nightlife. Each luxurious room features high-quality fabrics and interiors, including Egyptian linens and bathrobes, free Wi-Fi, and flat-screen TVs with satellite and select Sky channels. Guests can indulge in The Sp@ The Grand, a new elegant day spa, or utilize the modern, air-conditioned gym. The spa, run by experienced therapists, offers a tranquil retreat with various treatments. For dining, GB1 Seafood Restaurant and Bar presents the freshest fish and seafood, alongside quality meat dishes, British favorites, and vegetarian options. Open seven days a week for lunch and dinner, it provides à la carte menus, daily specials, and set lunch menus. Whether for a glass of champagne at the oyster bar or a celebratory feast, GB1 offers a perfect dining experience.
