About The Grand Hotel Brighton 0118 971 4700
The Grand Hotel is a huge Victorian building built in 1864, dating back from the days when the city took off as a tourist spot, helped greatly by the new railways. At the time it was famed for its superior facilities, which included 201 bedrooms, a lift, ballroom and billiards room. Unfortunately, in 1984, the hotel was the site of the bombing and attempted assassination attempt of then Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher. The Grand Hotel reopened in 1986, even better equipped than before, and now it is a great hotel and conference venue, as well as being a popular filming location.
