2-night trip

8/10

Ideally placed on the cliff top with noteworthy views across the estuary to Whitby Abbey ruins and out to see. The hotel is undergoing a significant face lift and refit but its current public rooms are very good. Outstanding breakfast options available. Well worth the £100 or so for B&B nb lift currently unavailable so be ready to climb some stairs!

Very impressive property. Currently undergoing renovation but that didn't really impact on my stay. Great location with terrific views. I had a small double which was fine for a solo traveller but would have been cramped for two. Staff very helpful and friendly.

Really enjoyed our stay. All the staff were lovely. They were having refurbishments done to the rooms. We stayed in one of the refurbished rooms and were very impressed with our stay. Would definitely stay here again. The hotel had great views and was a short walk away from the shops.

Our room was lovely and newly refurbished, however there was a lot of building work happening at the hotel. I was made aware before our visit that the lift was not working and there were plenty of staff on hand to help with luggage.
