Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel with brilliant views of Whitby's harbor. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the service was exceptional. The location was perfect, right in the center of Whitby town. However, the dining experience was average. Overall, it was a great value for money.
For my husband's 60th birthday, we stayed in a room with a great view of the harbour. The breakfast was fantastic with an amazing view over the harbor, although the food quality was just average. The location was very centrally located, near the bridge on the abbey side, making it convenient to explore Whitby. The dining experience, with good quality ingredients and beautiful views, added to our enjoyment of the stay.
The hotel offers stunning views of the harbour and swing bridge. The rooms with windows overlooking the harbour provide a unique experience, although some may find the food quality average. The location is very central to everything in Whitby, making it convenient for exploring the town.
