Grand Hotel, Grade II listed hotel in Llandudno, United Kingdom.
The Grand Hotel is a Grade II listed building on the North Shore promenade of Llandudno, housing 162 rooms with views of the Welsh coast. It features two restaurants, a bar, a ballroom, and accommodates individual travelers as well as large events.
The structure began as a bathhouse in 1855 and underwent major reconstruction in 1901 under architect James Francis Doyle. This transformation made it Wales's largest hotel.
The hotel serves as a gathering place where visitors from around the world meet, bringing together different traditions under one roof. Its design and spaces reflect how grand establishments once anchored the social life of a seaside town.
The building sits directly on the beach promenade and is easy to reach on foot, making it a convenient starting point for exploring the town. Visitors should note that it is a historic structure that retains some original features despite modern updates.
The Royal Charter Storm of 1859 destroyed the original pier below the hotel, which was then completely rebuilt in 1876. The hotel also appeared in the 1979 film Yanks, bringing international attention to the location.
