Affectionately known as The White Palace- The Grand Hotel is a dazzling Victorian hotel on Eastbournes promenade with such inspiring sea views that Debussy completed his symphony La Mer here in 1905. This historic- seaside retreat has two award-winning restaurants- indoor and outdoor pools- a health spa and conference facilities. Grand by name and by nature- the public spaces are majestic with high palatial ceilings supporting chandeliers- vast white columns and tall windows. The bedrooms are more intimate with period furnishings and soft colour tones. Afternoon tea at The Grand Hotel is a veritable institution- not to be missed. Afterwards- head to the spa for a Reiki treatment- then work up an appetite with an invigorating cliff walk. Return for dinner at the gastronomic Mirabelle Restaurant and enjoy the acclaimed tasting menu. The Grand Hotel is a Small Luxury Hotels of the World property.
