Top Whitby Hotel Reviews

Argyle House

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay. Easy instructions, helpful host and a lovely room to stay in. Very clean and the bed was comfy. Blessed also with glorious weather in October!! The only point I’d raise was the water pressure in the shower wasn’t great but it worked and was hot!! Will definitely rebook!!"

"Clean room and bathroom. Nice view of the river and Whitby from the window! Plenty of coffee and tea in the room. Breakfast was great too! My only complaint is the bed was hard, ended up sleeping on top of the comforter."

The Whalebone Arch

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely clean room, everything you could need. First night was lovely, second night, which I know the owners cannot do anything about, but 2 smokers booked in and because we were near the front door, we were disturbed every 30-45 mins with them going out for a cigarette and being outside talking at 6.30am Saturday morning. Apart from that would stay again"

Manor View Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed a couple nights for a weekend away. Very pleasant."

The Mallyan Spout Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was described as a “comfort room “ we loved it! It was surprisingly spacious enough, beautiful decor and soft furnishings. The bedding and towels quality were exceptional. Hospitality tray and outlook were lovely. If I had to give a small negative, there was a slight odour in the bathroom, from probably the cloths/ mops used to clean, a bit “ sweaty socks” type of odour which lingered. On another practical preference negative, the restaurant is beautiful, ambient and amazing service from the young well trained and mentored staff….but….the wine glasses were a let down, please provide sophisticated wine glasses? That would be great."
