Loo a problem

I enjoyed most of my time here but was very disappointed to find out that my toilet and shower was down the other end of the corridor. It was private and clean but when you wake up in middle of the night needing the loo it is not convienient to have to get fully dressed before using the facilities. I thought I was in a room with ensuite facilities so this was a big downer on an otherwise fantastic hotel
PAUL, 2-night trip

I asked for a room with en-suite and was upgraded to a lovely family room. I was able to store my bike safely indoors too.

Peter, 13-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.
Martin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Really friendly and attentive. The drinks at the bar were great value. Would stay again that's for sure.
Carlton, 1-night trip

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!

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.

A great place to stay for your Scarborough trip

Really enjoyed my stay here. The castle, town centre, beach and amenities are all close by. The hosts were amazing and couldn't do enough for me. I will be coming back, thank you so much guys.

Cozy room with a great view

Our room facing the North beach, view a spectacular view. Service was good and room was very clean and cozy.

8/10 Very good

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.
