The Grand Brighton Hotel is a historic Victorian sea-front hotel in Brighton on the south coast of England. Designed by John Whichcord Jr and built in 1864, it was intended for members of the upper classes visiting the town and remains one of Brighton's most expensive hotels.

During the 1984 Conservative Party conference the hotel was bombed by the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA) in an attempt to assassinate the Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher.
