"This is a tired old building, frozen in the middle of a renovation, with the most amazing staff. The stairs are many, steep & awkward, with flights up to go back down to the next part of the property.Not suitable in anyway for disabled people, or those with mobility issues, yet this is not stated anywhere on the info issued by the hotel. I was allocated room 40...third floor , end of the corridor single. Door lock/ handle was loose & insecure. The large double glazed window was "blown" so steamed up inside the unit removing what presumably would have been a nice view over Spanish City.lumpy single bed, thin duvet, no extra blankets. Great bedside lamp & tea tray with kettle, tea & coffee & a mug. En suite was a joke. The WC was set facing a wall that didn't allow your knees room to sit, so had to sit sideways. Previous fitments like a toilet roll dispenser, cup holder from a previous iteration of the room. The shower was a replacement tray, suspended 4 inches above the previous one, with the consequent gap on show. I didn't dare step into the shower as I could see no visible support! Fire doors didn't shut properly, with one even being supported by a random piece of wood. Breakfast however, was a thing of beauty! Abundant choice of cereals, juice & milk. Constant supply of fresh teapots & coffee, along with hot toast, & then the hot:proper butchers sausage, marvellous bacon, mushrooms, oven baked half tomatoes, hash browns, baked beans & scrambled eggs. The Staff are all ace"

"Standard room was clean & warm. Front reception woman was lovely & helpful with advice for our travels to Edinburgh. Value for money "

"Lovely located 1930s house within easy walk of the fabulous beach. Comfortable bed in huge bay windowed upstairs room.Downstairs front bay windowed bedroom would make a lovely second reception/living room as back room is quite small with dining table in there along with L-shaped sofa and TV etc.There was a lot of personal food and toiletries left in the house, which was unusual, made it feel like you were staying in someone’s home rather than a rental.Hosts (Nick & Rodica) were lovely and accommodating and extended our last day until 1pm, which meant we had a nice relaxing morning on our last day. Many thanks! "

"We really enjoyed our stay, the house had nice ‘home from home’ vibes. The location was really good and the house was nice and clean. "

"Nicely done out. A couple of issues in terms of equipment - only one mug so we had to go out and buy one the following day. Also no potato peeler, cafetière (coffee machine needed capsules which are more expensive to buy). The outdoor area could have been made more attractive. The alley at the back was full of rubbish. We did receive quick feedback to our concerns about the mug and the lockpad being left on the code. "

"Great venue to meet up with family. Excellent location overlooking the beach/sea within easy walking distance of a couple of good restaurants. This was a return visit which we thoroughly enjoyed. Whitley Bay sea front promenade however is undergoing a transformative update causing disruption to traffic in the immediate area including directly outside the property. This did not affect our visit apart from having to navigate the new one way traffic system on our arrival. "
