Staying at The Grand Hotel

Lots of collectors stay at The Grand Hotel – the location of the convention – which offers special dinner, bed and breakfast accommodation rates for attendees, based on a minimum two-night stay. For 2025 these are:

• Single room at £86 per room per night
• Double Occupancy at £122 per room per night
• Family of 3 at £152.50 per room per night
• Family of 4 at £183.00 per room per night

To take advantage of these rates, call the hotel on 01253 623434 (option 2) (+44 1253 623434 from outside the UK) but mention to the hotel that you are booking for ‘the Cinema Convention Room Freesale’. There are a limited number of rooms, so do book early to avoid disappointment.

If you would like to extend your stay before or after the Convention, the special rates are available from Monday 10th November until Wednesday 19th November.

If resident at the hotel, your Saturday dinner booking can be transferred across to the Film Collectors’ Dinner at no extra charge, but you must agree this in advance of the dinner. To find out how to book, visit The Film Collectors’ Dinner page.
