We Stayed at The Grand Hotel in Scarborough - We Were Shocked!

As the van is in the garage we decided to spend the night in Scarborough's worst rated Hotel. We also tried fish and chips at the Lifeboat Fishbar and were blown away by how good they were. Did they take the top spot? You will have to watch the video to find out!

We booked a room a couple of years ago, wondering what we’d let ourselves in for, and we were impressed, lovely room, clean, and warm. The breakfast was spot-on too!

[@ry491]

So glad you enjoyed yourselves . My late wife and I stayed at the grand every year for about 15 years . Great that you liked it and just didn't find fault in every little thing as so many do. We went to that chip shop and I 26:57 think we even stayed in that room once. We loved Scarborough but sadly I can never go back there as it wiuld break my heart to go there without my wife . We always had the same attitude as you two. We went there to enjoy ourselves and not to find fault . Wonderful nemories yet now so sad . Warm wishes to you both . I hope you have as happy life as we did .

I love how down to earth and normal you are. I'm moving into my Renault Trafic full time next month, I'm pretty nervous about it but watching your videos has made me feel more comfortable. I'm in the exact same situation you were, rising rent, rising bills, and I've had enough of paying some one else's mortgage for them. I could carry on paying £700 a month for a one bed flat with about £400 bills on top, but I'm at that point now where my outgoings are about to overtake my wage. Looking forwards to getting out and getting on with it! Thankyou for easing my mind a bit! Love the content!

Really glad to see they finally spent some money and got this place habitable again. As a former resident of Blackpool I've seen what happens to these lovely old hotels and my last visit to Scarborough circa 2013 gave me the impression the Grand was not long for this world! Great review and seems Britannia might have turned a corner to at least keep their places viable, shame it seems like a lottery as to what standard of room you get.

Taxpayers paid for the refurb as part of the deal in housing the dingy people.Britannia just cream us all.

Awe that brought back so many memories, so glad you both had a good time. Those fish and chips looked amazing 😊

[@deelatham5080]

I lived in the Grand Hotel for 2 years in the early 80s and absolutely loved it! I was a Redcoat when it was a Butlins hotel. Some of the best years of my life, thank you for taking me back in time, fabulous memories 😊❤️

[@bythecurb]

Brilliant! I bet you have some great stories

Awww. That's really nice he delivered a bit of nostalgia. Never knew they had Butlins at Scarborough

[@sicr7373]

This bought back some lovely memories, my late Father loved Scarborough and retired there (well just outside) back in 2004. His mate had a small yacht which was kept in Scarborough harbor and they'd often go sailing to Whitby and/or Bridlington. Way back when I was 15 I went out on the boat with them, that was my first and last time, I was violently seasick and it put me off small boats for life.....looking forward to part two! 😃

Thank you!!

Work in the building trade,and have to admire the brickwork on the grand hotel those arches over the windows on the front are work from victorian builders it could never be replicated by anyone stunning building in its day,sadly left to wreck and ruin inside.its a shame its not been kept in better condition but money rules everything today.hopefully it can be restored .7 pound for a drink is about right in an hotel.great video guys look foward to part two

Brilliant Vid!!! James! Your professional intro & apt background music very much appreciated!!! Great to see you both having fun and Helen’s whit and banter is a gem!

Very interesting video and you are an entertaining couple, (you look just right for each other), I have great memories of Scarborough. I worked at the Grand in the early 80's Butlins days, I was the photographer there for 5 years. I visited the Grand again briefly in September 2022 and was pleasantly surprised at how the Britannia Group have finally spent some money on a long overdue refurbishment.

[@madeleineowen8284]

Loved watching this video. Brought back so many memories. My parents were born and brought up in Scarborough, so most of our summer school holidays were spent 😊 there visiting relatives. My paternal Grandfather used too sell the tickets for the 😊 miniature railway at the North Bay. Did you visit Peasolm Park. My parents ashes were scattered there. Always wanted to spend time in the Grand hotel.❤

[@bythecurb]

We always go to Peasolm Park, we love it there

[@leighmac1625]

Good to see the joke shop on the corner is still there. I think there was another one further up on the opposite side of the street from which I bought some itching powder to put mischievous use.

[@howiejohnsonimages1861]

Really good video; I was born in Scarborough lived there till 1977, moved away to the streets of London, use to go back and see my parents and have my holidays back home. When mum and dad passed away I have never been back; this video really gives the feel of those cold stormy nights when I use to go out clubbing. The Grand has had some bad reports on and off, however you did it proud; oh I sang on the large staircase in a choir back in the day, thanks for the memories.

Helen, you have a truly amazing singing voice. I clocked you post fish and chip shop whilst you and James were walking, and you were singing along to madness's 'it must be love', and from 19:43 - 19:53, I had to rewind it, it was so beautiful. Warm, rich and full of soul. Seriously, it was that good, I felt compelled to say something.

[@bythecurb]

Thank you, she has a great voice. I need to get her on karaoke

[@lentilgirl158]

Great video - thanks!! I had to laugh when you said "get it eaten!". I haven't heard that since I was a small child in York - my mother always said it when we screwed our noses up at sprouts etc. You seem to have liked the Grand, so I'm wondering why you gave it one out of five on the cover page of the video? I stayed there too when I was in UK last, (live in oz now) and I was ecstatic when I saw the view I had from my room. You're a lovely pair, and your wife is lovely looking. Thank you for sharing your time in Scarborough with us. Love from Australia x

[@bythecurb]

Thank you, my mum always used to say that to me too. The image of the one star on the thumbnail is taken from a review on the TripAdvisor website. So many people jump on the bandwagon saying how terrible the hotel is but we think it's OK for the money.

[@jjs_adventureswithcharlie]

We love Scarborough and will be down in the van in a few weeks parked on marine drive. Will definitely be trying the Lifeboat Fishbar now after the 9.75 score as it looked amazing, and that fish and peas has got my belly rumbling. Another great vlog you pair and cant wait for part 2.👍

[@johnrideout7124]

Some years ago I was cajoled into driving from Northampton to Scarboro' to do some building renovation work. Asking a local about fish & chip shops, I was directed to an alley near a supermarket. Seeing the quality and amounts being handed out whilst in the queue, when my turn came I requested a substantial barrow-load, a girl behind me said "Excuse me, are you really going to eat all that" ? Not having food for 8 or more hours, I said "Yes"!

I wish we had booked there instead of the Travelodge across the road we were supposed to stay two nights as a rest from driving from further down south but due to the state of the room we left after the first night.

[@robknox6514]

I was in Scarborough about a week or so ago and also stayed in this hotel. And my room was decent enough the bed was comfy and the bathroom had a nice walk-in shower so I had no complaints about the room. My only complaint is being woken up at 3:00am with a man shouting wake up and clapping for no reason so wasn't happy about that but didn't take me long to get back to sleep and wake up to a nice sunny morning...Only kidding it was pissing it down but hey sure do love the north of the country and looking to relocate there sometime and start a fresh there.

[@Sharon-marie]

Me and my hubby go to the grand every year, we always go early for happy hour in the bar where the drinks are half price or cheaper anyway until its time to check in. None of the Jacuzzis work, they are supposed to be ripping them all out and putting ordinary baths in, we tried filling the jacuzzi for our granddaughter, it didnt work and as the water filled up to the holes a load of grime and slime came out of the holes so we got her out of it quickly it was discusting, but apart from that we always have a great break.
