“Mr & Mrs Woolley first time visitors.”

“Desperatley needs refurbishing”

When you enter the hotel you are met by the most gorgeous staircase (I'm told renovated last year). So you are thinking that the rooms etc are going to be just as good.

When you enter the hotel you are met by the most gorgeous staircase (I'm told renovated last year). So you are thinking that the rooms etc are going to be just as good. BUT the rooms are dated and dirty - thankfully the sheets were clean on the bed but I didn't sleep because the mattress was God knows how old and I could feel every spring and lump in the bed. The room was a decent size but I couldn't see out of the windows as there was a film over them (so assuming this room overlooked some other building and had no view at all) but saying that it was quiet at night (and I mean all night as I didn't sleep). The bathroom was big but the floor could have done with a good clean and the showerhead was going rusty plus there was paint coming off around the windows. The radiator had that much dust and dirt inside it it was horrid!! The carpet could have done with a good clean as well and the bedside lamps were thick with dust. The location was good and was walkable to the beach and shops. Dinner was a shambles and as we were in only half an hour after the restaurant opened there was hardly any food out and there was a queue waiting for more food to be brought out (yes it was a buffet style.) Saying that I had the fish with some salad and it was very nice and others were saying that the food was decent. Breakfast was also good with a full English (again buffet style) plus cereal, fruit, yoghurt and toast. The staff were all lovely and friendly and were very helpful and in the evening they had a decent sized lounge (but could do with more seating instead of all these great big settees). I am glad we only had the one night there and for what we paid it was OK. Probably won't be going back to Scarborough anytime soon but if I did I don't think I would choose this hotel. Al in all this hotel could do with a major refurbish.

“Average stay, good central location”

Booked here for a couple of nights when visiting Scarborough for gig at open air theatre.

Booked here for a couple of nights when visiting Scarborough for gig at open air theatre. Good central location- Short walk (10 mins) from station and short walk down to south bay area, with north bay about 15 minutes walk. Was really nervous after reading all the reviews having spent £400 on 2 nights b&b for 2. We arrived late so literally dropped bags and headed straight out but first impressions were it was just a little dated. Reception team were all friendly and helpful. Our room was spacious and clean. On the first night toilet was continually flushing, reported it next morning and it was fixed that day. Breakfast, good selection and plenty of room, breakfast is served 7.30-10 which helps with the flow of people. Our only complaint was the building work that commenced at 7.30am and was a rude awakening, lots of loud banging. It would have been helpful to let us know it was taking place. We had a drink in the bar one evening but did so much out and about didn't spend much time in the hotel itself. We also had a drink in the Clifton Hotel which is same chain as family staying there, would say that is as equally good location for all amenities. It certainly wasn't bad like we were expecting.
