I took my wife to London for her 39th Birthday weekend to see a show and chill.
After reading some reviews we were a little concerned - but trust me, you dont need to be!
This is a great hotel - so book it.
Perfect location for exploring Central London - literally meters from Trafalgar Sq.
As you approach looks a very nice building and reception was manned by very polite and helpful staff who allowed us to check in early too.
Building is clearly more than one hotel, but that doesn't effect anything.
Room ours was (room 304) were clean and modern'sh, with comfy bed and furniture and a 40" TV on the wall.
Room was overlooking the inner sanctums of the hotel, so no view really, but that suited us as less noise from the main streets as we like to sleep with the window open, and if I want a view well - walk around London.
Bathroom was clean and modern'ish, all in order and looking fresh.
Eating....
We didn't eat in the hotel restaurant so cannot comment on that, but looked very posh, a bit too posh for us!
There is a fantastic little cafe just a few doors down. Garfunkels cafe, does a great breakfast and snacks and cheaper too... (Sorry hotel management). and they serve breakfast up to midday for those who like a lie in.
even on our way back from a comedy club night at 10:30pm, it was open and we grabbed a very nice coffee and homemade pudding to finish off the night.
Charring Cross tube is over the road so easy to get around.
Literally a 15 min stroll and you're in Piccadilly Circus, and most of the Theatres seems to be in easy walking distance.
We went to the Criterion Theatre and to the nearby Comedy Store and had a great couple of nights out.
Overall, definitely would book again on our next visit.
The restaurant seemed a bit posh for us mere mortals, so we ate elsewhere.
(to be fair it probably wasn't) and we didn't even go in, but dressed in jeans and hoody we felt out of place so we slummed it like normal people. No offence meant..lol

Location simply can't be beat.
Accomodation is solid, as in clean enough and resonably affordable, given the location and the overall standard.
The bathroom could use an update as well as some upgrades (e.g. modern, more luxurious appliances and glass-enclosed shower instead of the somewhat sad shower curtain situation) and the room could use a fridge/ minibar.
It's a pity they don't really make use of the grandeur of the building. The lobby is underwhelming and the front desk seems almost make-shift.

I had a room facing the street but the sound proofing was excellent. The room was a small queen but felt much bigger than other places I've stayed in London. Very close to may attractions. Friendly, helpful staff. I was tired when I arrived and grateful for the in-house restaurant. They had a deal for guests at the hotel as well. I would consider staying here again.

Very quiet, even in a front room. Large room. Huge 6 foot bed. It had a fridge and microwave as well. Discovered a guest lounge with a free coffee machine and tea making facilities and a newspaper. view of the lions on Trafalgar Square from our window, so central!
Our fridge was faulty but would have been replaced if we had asked.

The hotel is well located, very close to Trafalgar Square. Room was comfortable enough and clean. Shower was good. Bar was nice when it was open.
Apart from the grand entrance and bar area, "The Grand" didn't live up to its name. The rooms were fine but a bit tired looking. The room we stayed in was cold, and the heater seemed pretty ineffective. I think it must have been near the air conditioning units because there was a constant machinery hum in the room. The tea and coffee selection seemed cheap - no biscuits, just 2 basic teabags and some instant coffee, not even a spoon. The reception was a tiny space in a dingy corridor.

Poor
Location good. Room large and well appointed.
However we had booked a suite to cater for four adults. Accommodation was a double bed and a double sofa bed. I had phoned the hotel prior to making the booking to check whether the sofa bed was suitable for teenage children (18 & 19).
Despite being assured it was, on arrival it was clear that the sofa bed was very poor and the mattress thin and aged. The metal base was clearly felt through the mattress. The hotel couldn't replace or provide an additional mattress or an alternative room. They did discount the room rate without hesitation when we complained which suggested to me that this problem had arisen before but it was scant consolation for a really uncomfortable night for my daughters and we were very disappointed with this experience.
