Great wee hotel, but parking can be tricky
It's a really nice small hotel, the staff were really friendly and helpful, the breakfast was good, the room was really pleasant and the location is great. The only downsides were a bed that was too soft (for me) and the difficulty in finding a parking space nearby.

10/10 Exceptional

The venue is ideally situated for your visit to Whitby. The hotel is family run, the staff are both friendly and helpful, and despite the rooms being above a busy bar you did not get disturbed. Therefore, I would thoroughly recommend staying there and will definitely re-book when visiting Whitby again.

Absolutely loved our stay at the Dolphin! This was a clean, cozy, friendly family run inn over a cute pub. It was so quiet in our room, which had a harbor view. Our stay was just lovely and romantic . The owners and staff were so warm and friendly, and the included breakfast was great . Overall just a warm and welcoming place!

Very friendly staff and delicious breakfast every morning. The Dolphin is the kind of place that makes you feel right at home, and we loved staying here. Also, it's very close to everything so the location is absolutely perfect, too. Very cozy place!

Perfect location in Whitby
The Dolphin is perfectly situated, right in the heart of Whitby. We had room 6 on the top floor with a great view over the harbour, good bathroom, comfortable bed and decent furnishings. Breakfast was decent with tea and coffee facilities in the room.

Worth a look. Be prepared to walk with luggage from public car parks. Room accessibility may be an issue for some because there is no lift.
