The trouble is these days, is that people expect the sort of ultra modern finishes etc that they find abroad. To the people saying it needs investment, you can plainly see its getting it> Even small things like the old fashioned keys and large fobs, compared to the new card lock systems. Just think how much it would be to change all the locks on every room, well it would need doors replacing so there weren't patches on doors, and that would be just changing a minor thing. It's a bit like the old holiday camps, they are a thing of their time and people need to see the character in them
Hi deano, it looks good now. Great video. It's used to house 90 Afghanistan, Refugee hotel, they crapped in the beds lifts and hallways 😮😮😮
So, when did that happen??? That is, if it really did. And the descriptive "they" makes me think you're just doing a Polly poison job. Guess conspiracy theorists are a global phenomena.
@@thaisstone5192 your a woke drone that believes the BBC I feel sorry for you. Do your research, it's easy and on Google and videos on UA-cam. Plus the government admitted that they trashed the hotel in dispute of being put in there. 🧐🤓 FACTS
@@thaisstone5192 It really did happen and there are several videos about it on YT. The biggest issue was with the children running around wild and continually pressing the lift buttons causing mayhem and chaos.
Great video Deano xx
Great video Deano very informative 👍👍
That was a good, fair, honest review Deano....it's a lovely old building...as most of the Britannia Hotels seem to be...takes a lot of money to upkeep them...looks like they are starting to decorate finally going by the fresh paint on the walls.! the staircase was beautiful. The entertainment is what it is i guess...i would have gone to film night...couple of decent old films to look back on lol....and don't mind a bit of Abba either for a fun night...and was that a night of Journey (Don't sop Believing)? or a rock night ? It looks like they are trying to improve the hotel so good on them x
Yes Deano. I agree with your hotel review it's no where near the worst hotel. I would stay there myself
Great view of the coast as well
See you at breakfast
Deano worst hotel is in Liverpool ,but with a twist it is haunted.Many famous youtube vloggers have stayed there can you find your way.The true shining hotel make your way to the Adelphi
The vending machines ! 😂😂😂. Classy !!!🎩
Yess deano mate 💙👌🏻
Top Man.. I always believe in a Sht Shv Shw 3 Rules for any hotel for a bloke. The place reminds me of the SHINING... Here's DEANO!!!
I am truly spooked by this place. Try a cheapo Premier Inn maybe Lenny Henry will pop in
@@TKDJKI think the fact that Lenny Henry might pop in would make me want to stay in the Grand even more.
Nice one Deano!... I must admit mate... That some of my family stayed at the Grand Hotel in Scarborough about ten years ago... And they weren't happy with the state of the building at all... It was in a very tired state... And obviously had been neglected over a period of many years... It's such a shame when hotel owners take their guests money... And let the building get into a shocking state of disrepair... But i'm quite shocked and surprised to see that the Grand Hotel Scarborough has actually had many of it's previous problems rectified... Is it the perfect hotel?... No of course not... Is it perfectly acceptable and pleasant to the vast majority of holidaying guests?... Yes absolutely!... Apart from the dirty windows in your room... And those pesky Seagulls making a nuisance of themselves on the Terrace... The rest of the hotel looked to be pretty decent mate... And for just £39.00 per night it's an absolute bargain... Especially as it also includes evening entertainment provided... Within the cost of the rooms... I've actually stayed at some Travelodge's that have genuinely cost more than that... And it was for just a basic small room with a Bed... Bathroom... T.V... Writing Desk... Tea & Coffee Making Facilities... Mirror... Wardrobe... And that's about it!.
I think that there are some ways in tackling some of the Seagull problems at the Grand Hotel... For instance... There are plastic strips with pointed plastic stems that prevent birds from perching on roofs and window ledges... There are also things like decoy Raptor Birds of Prey... Which can be deployed on various locations on and around the hotel... Raptors like... Peregrine Falcons... Harris Hawks... Osprey's... Kestrels... etc... As well as having real audio of these Raptors... Simply to scare away the Seagulls... Also it would probably be advisable to have a local Falconer bring in some of their real Raptors periodically... Just to keep those annoying Seagulls in check... I'm sure that the Falconer would be happy at taking as part payment for their services... Dinner at the Grand Hotel for two people twice every month... Also the Grand Hotel could inquire about getting a see through covering for their entire Terraced area... Which would prevent Seagulls from using it as a toilet... Then their hotel guests could actually enjoy sitting out on the Terrace on a nice warm Summers day... And not have to worry about having themselves or their drinks... Having an unwanted deposit... Courtesy of these swarming fearless Seagulls... Many thanks for the video Deano... It really was a very pleasant eye opener my friend... All the best... Cheers mate. 🍺
Love this hotel every room I've had as been beautiful amd the public spaces are clean and stunningly beautiful. Entertainment is good too when i went had 4 people singing and dancing x
As a local, we do not recommend that you eat in the grand. It is well known for People getting sick from food poisoning, or the Norwalk virus so I think you had a lucky escape but to be fair, the decor is a hell of a lot better since I was last in there
I've ate there with my family foods been good x
Next time you go to Scarborough go to Sunny,s on St Thomas Street v good breakfast mate
What vlog camera are you using please.
Great video.

It looked like a good deal for £39, Deano. Especially with a sea view room. Although part of me would have liked to have seen the no windows dungeon room, but you can't have everything. Anyway, another great review!
What a building so beautiful I stopped at the Adelphi hotel Liverpool many years ago it was stunning so sad to see them declining.
My mind must be bad but when you opened the closet I thought I saw smallish handcuffs and my first thought was why is a hotel offering handcuffs in a bedroom🤔🤣😂.I'm out of the loop but thought you would pay£49.99for a room but that would include breakfast. The hotel could put a cover over half of the terrace to help with the🕊️ problem.If they put some investment into the hotel by naybe making a few rooms bigger and charging accordingly it could be a lovely hotel. Is there parking available?I don't think hotels these days should be charging for wifi when it's pretty much used and required by everyone.
Most hotels are around10am check out and2pm check in so4pm is way late for checking in.Most places will let you off paying extra for late check out and/or check in but often depends on the member of staff you deal with.
Deono that hotel looks not bad at all and that view is lovely i would definitely stay in this with my mrs
They did it up a little bit when they were getting all the bad reviews that’s why it had such a bad reputation they had to do something. We waited in a queue for 3 hrs once to check in to be put in a basement room only a shower no air con it was the worst nights sleep we’ve ever had and my lass said, “I will never stay there again!” Which we haven’t since.
Not been there myself but looks like a nice building, granted rooms aren't massive, did you eat there ? Breakfast dinner etc
To think I paid £55 in 1999 to stay in the rougest place ever Collyhurst in Manchester. The flats opposite looked condemned, the fire doors to the bar were wide open, full of locals smoking weed, barbed wire and an Alsation patrolling outside our window, middle of Summer and the heating was stuck on. All in all the Grand seems like The Ritz in comparison ! 👍
Me and my assistance dog stayed there in 2018 (ish). £30 for the room for one night. My only complaint was the long queue to check-in. Like you, I'd stay there again. It's also a short distance from the railway station and if you plan it in advance you can hire a full-size mobility scooter from the shop across the road from the hotel.
We have terrible problems with the SkyRats here in Great Yarmouth too. They nest on the roof of my workplace and the stench of their 💩 in summer is vile 🤮
Hi deano seen worse hotels.
Let's be honest how old is the grand.
I would stay there it looks clean.
Not nice with those seagulls, but the views and the weather you've been lucky .
Ann in Cumbria. 😊😊😊.
I'm a local i used to know someone who used to walk into the Grand hotel Saturday and Sunday morning pick up a newspaper gi and sit in the dining room waitress used to gi iver to him asj what he would like for Breakfast order a full English est it and wslk out ang go home having had a free Breakfast he'd do it regularly
Looks amazing. Can stay in more expensive places without everything that's going on there. £39 seems very good value.
Dude just get an unlimited SIM - or at least something with a decent allowance. You can get 100GB with an instant access E-SIM from Lyca for £6.99
Deano swayze
12k 🎉🎉🎉🎉
That place has been done up a bit you should have checked the state of the matress room looked ok nice sea view 🍻
They grand have been renewing all mattresses
I have stayed there twice, once in basement and once with a window and it did have a bit of a The Shining vibe to it 😂
Deano the free upgrades are normally for rooms that have not been used for a while and they need a person to stay in and run the taps and shower to clean them out, just saying 😂
Looks well haunted
You are right this hotel is quite nice,I would stay there, your room was ok quite small but for the price ok and for one person ok.
If this is the worse wow the best must be impressive
I check in earlier without paying a penny
Doesn't look bad at all especially for £39!
(106) Well, I think its absolutely charming. It must be the seagulls that ruin the experience.
Deano for 39 quid that’s amazing
I’ve stayed in the grand hotel many times as a kid with my family and even now as a adult I love that hotel and I have a 5 day stay coming up this August unfortunately it is going to cost me more than you paid
To stay in the dungeon on a Tuesday it should be about £40 a night
The Grand is the best hotel in the UK, cheap as chips, right location beats my tent... Norbreck castle is a dump. LOL
Hardly "Grand" anymore. Just retains it's origional name from when it would have been Grand.
Not the best is it.
HAving tried Britannia Breakfasts, they are absolutely awful now. The buffet looked OK, but the food was all cold. When asked if they could prodce some fresh or reheat what I selected, they reheated it. It was still awful. The only time to have breakfsat is when they have coach parties in.
I see that the price is £34 for a night. It's just a pity that the foos wa a disappointment. When I first stayed at a Britania, the meals were cooked to order, rather than the common thing now with a hot and cold buffet. Unless you go and eat when they open, you will be disappointed.
Thanks for the Grand Tour Deano
Should have the grand took off its name
Britannia hotels should be boycotted! The paint you smell was paid for by the tax payer 🤬
Was the dingy divers been in here
Well I’m not sure this is the worst hotel in the uk…. I’ve seen some bad looking ones in Blackpool to start with. Nice one Deano ….Smithy
🎉🎉Whats happening people hes still out and about🎉🎉
Mate, you really need to stop doing putting the camera on the floor and you walking past. Its so outdated now and cringe now.
Its also what the cackmaster does
