Give this one a miss

Room was at the top of the hotel, up lots of very narrow stairs, very basic room which felt more like a spare room, hotel is definitely not a 4 star, struggle to be a 2 Room was very dated and small things werent right, the bedside light fitting was ver loose, the ceiling had decor missing, the wallpaper is like something out of the eighties, the room was tiny, cold and very unwelcoming, the only thing this hotel provided above a 2 star was the toilet roll. Even the water cups were white plastic vending machine type. We wont be going back I understand that you get what you pay for but we were still very much overcharged. The only positive was the young lady that welcomed us, she was very polite and cheery.

Amy the host was first class and even upgraded my room after she had found out i had a bad day with my car breaking down and she also waited for me well after the time i was supposed to check in. Great room, great location and top customer service. Would definitely recommend
Mark, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Decent enough place to stay. Showing it's age in places but overall clean and tidy. Staff were friendly. Easy to check in, and I set off early the following morning - leaving the keys in the box in the hallway. Very convenient for the town centre and seafront if you don't mind a few minutes walk. Variety of restaurants nearby, even before you reach the town centre.

Check in and parking was easy. The property was very clean. The old sash window rattled when open so I had to shut it which made the room warm.

10/10 Exceptional

We loved it here, room had a gorgeous view and the family room wa spacious. Bunk bed was a bit creakky (but our kids were probably too big for them really.) Fab locations for the northbay side where there is lots to do. Breakfast was AMAZING!

A Great Place to Stay.

A nice quiet place to stay. Car parking a bonus! A clean room and bathroom. A good pub just up the road too.
Peter, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Handy for all attractions in Scarborough

We had a great overnight stay. Our room was spacious and comfortable, and very clean, with a fantastic view over the North Bay. It is in a very handy position for both bays and also Peasholm park or the Open Air Theatre. It’s only a short walk to the town centre and station. Handy parking outside and a very easy check in process. We will certainly book again next time we come to Scarborough. We saw a wonderful sunrise from the bedroom window and got some great pics😊

The room was nice and clean and the shower worked very well. The only annoyance was the noisy Seagulls keeping you awake.
