Always something to do. Saw dolphins swimming outside the harbour, off the end of the pier this visit. I highly recommend a visit to Pannett Park with Whitby museum and art gallery in the middle.

Whitby is a beautiful town with a sandy beach, a gothic abbey and a fantastic choice of places to eat and drink. Loads of hills and steps to burn off the calories. Our favourite holiday spot.

We only spent 2 days here and the weather was not good, but there seemed plenty to do. There is a hop on/hop off bus service which takes you to the main sights. The North York Moors Railway from Whitby to Pickering is a must for an all day out.

Whitby is a place i have been coming to visit for years and I love it. There are a huge variety of shops. Quaint, cobbled streets, beautiful buildings. The 199 steps up to the Abbey, The pubs, restaurants are all just brilliant. Views.

Whitby is a wonderful town. I grew up in a seaside town and I have never seen so many Fish & Chip shops in my life! By the end of the week I was in desperate need of a steak! I highly recommend the Whitby Distillery and Abbey!

Lovely town but can be very busy. I last visited it out of season and enjoyed it more than the swarms of tourists in July. I'm sorry I wasn't there for the Steampunk weekend.

Busy, but you know what you're getting with a Yorkshire seaside town in summer. Plenty of history and heritage, not to mention the beach.
"Booked a last minute trip to Whitby. Not at all disappointed with The Royal - great stay. Friendly , helpful staff who have great recommendations of what to do at night. Excellent breakfast - plenty of choice and tasty. Lovely bar. Our room was spacious, great bathroom and comfy beds. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and will be back again. "
"Return visit like the area about 20-25 mins walk downhill to Whitby harbour area. Bus stop by school or Sainsburys minutes away.
Bedrooms clean and big for 2 people. Staff very friendly and helpful. Car parking free and if u forgot anything there is a sainsburys fee mins walk away
Breakfast has various choices to suit different appetite too and family friendly. Would return again"
