About The Grand Brighton
Set along the iconic Brighton seafront, The Grand Brighton was officially opened on 21 July 1864 to great fanfare and celebrated as the original ‘Palace By The Sea’. The now famous building was revered as a feat of Victorian architectural brilliance, masterfully designed by the celebrated architect John Whichcord Jr. Brighton's newest hotel boasted an impressive facade, ornate interiors, famously outstanding service, the very first lift outside of London - then referred to as 'vertical omnibuses'. Today, the 160-year-old walls hold 205 beautifully designed rooms stretching over seven floors and set around the original dramatic sweeping staircase, Cyan Brighton restaurant, the Victoria Bar & Lounge and the Victoria Terrace, as well as meeting and banqueting space. Guests staying at the hotel will find themselves in proximity to Brighton's famous attractions, including the Grade I listed Royal Pavilion and Garden, the iconic West Pier, and the lively Brighton Palace Pier
