The Britannia Grand Hotel in Scarborough is one of the town's landmarks. Situated in the city centre, the property takes pride in its location overlooking the town's harbour and South Bay. Built in 1863 as one of Europe's first purpose-built hotel, the property boasts superb architecture with the design rumoured to be based on the theme of time. The four towers represent the seasons, the 12 floors stand for the months, the 52 chimneys symbolize the weeks and the bedrooms (that originallly were 365) exemplify the days of the year. |
