Worth a stay.

Fabulous place. Everything was spot-on. Super friendly, hospitable hosts, lovely room and breakfast. Excellent location a stones throw away from the park, railway and North beach. Very pet-friendly. Tiny tiny gripe about the water pressure - shower was not very powerful.

Room 17

We chose this hotel as it had a good review on line but when we got to our room I was disappointed that there was faecal residue inside the toilet bowl and I don't think they have dusted the room properly inside the drawers. I had to dust off before we put our things inside the drawers. Otherwise after that it was pleasant stay. The parking is very limited and we had to park on the road but it was free and safe.

Best for service

I have stayed in hundreds of hotels - surprisingly, this little hotel exceeds them all in service. The kind of service where you feel like you are invited to stay with friends. At the same time the hotel runs very efficiently. For example, fast breakfast service even when pretty much everyone walked into breakfast at the same time. I have never met a hotel team that love their job as much as this lot. We also loved the food (muffins, chocolates etc) left in the room and the personal touches to everything. All else in this hotel is very good but not off-the-scale-perfect: The room is very clean, the beds comfortable and the shower has plenty of water and a consistent temperature (the big three for me), but many other hotels are just as good. The parking on site is not perfect (cars blocked in), but we stayed there on a weekend when Scarborough was full and there was plenty of on-street parking which was free, so that is a better option. All in all a great stay. We had a view of the castle and we walked across the beach and up there. Note that the north beach, which is close to this hotel, is the quiet one, more of a family beach. Sea Life, the aquapark are close by. The beach on the other side of the castle is busier, rowdier, with garish casinos right behind the beach (but also good fish and chip shops). Each to their own, so if you like that kind of place, it is not far to walk and there is a bus too.

Nice and comfortable

I won't say it's a hotel , but a very good bed and breakfast. It's quite expensive for a B&B though. It will be good if they issue us a parking pass for the town automatically. We didn't know what to do when parking around town, but found out we should have a special parking pass from our hotel. (Of course no pay machine around cause free with a pass)
