Britains seaside resorts are dominated by grand seaside hotels, boasting bold, large-scale buildings that often showcase the most fashionable architectural styles of their time. These majestic structures first emerged in the eighteenth century and reached their peak in the second half of the nineteenth century, when a luxurious hotel was a must-have for any successful seaside resort. These grand hotels, known as Grands, Royals, and Imperials, were filled with every modern convenience of the period, including opulent restaurants and ballrooms. They are fascinating buildings that reflect the fortunes of those who built and visited them throughout the years.
Karen Averby takes us on a journey through the rise, fall, and modern-day resurgence of grand seaside hotels across the UK. From their exclusive and luxurious nineteenth-century beginnings to their renaissance in the interwar years, decline in the 1970s as foreign package holidays gained popularity, and their recent, more accessible refurbished form today. This book is part of the Britains Heritage series, which offers definitive introductions to the riches of Britains past. It is an excellent way to gain an understanding of the variety of seaside hotels that exist in the UK.
