Grand Hotel

The Grand Hotel is a Grade II listed hotel located on the south side of Tynemouth Grand Parade. It was built in 1872 by Thomas Moore of Sunderland and features a design that incorporates French and Italian elements. The building is constructed from sandstone ashlar and has a Welsh slate roof.

It stands three storeys tall, with an attic and basement, and consists of five bays. The central entrance door is adorned with carved spandrels, polished granite nook shafts, and a heavy carved bracketed cornice supported by banded pilasters. The outer wider bays feature tripartite windows, with the lower floors having square bay projections that include entablatures above the ground and first floors. The entablature on the first floor extends across the front and the right return of the building. All windows are sashes with margin lights; those on the second floor have segmental heads and large bracketed sills, while the windows below are round-headed within architraves that feature long keystones.

The building has a mansard roof with five round-headed dormers, resting on a projecting bracketed eaves cornice. There is a modern raised central attic and a simpler, similar three-bay right return. The Grand Hotel is included in the listing partly for its townscape value due to its prominent position on the sea front.
