"We had a great time staying in this lovely house. It's really well equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. We are a family of five and there was plenty of room in the lounge for us all to sit together on the big settee. The house is situated in a great location, near to the town, not far from the seafront, just great for walking anywhere really. There's a parking space at the house, which is a big bonus. We absolutely loved staying here and would definitely stay again. The...

"The first issue is on the description upon booking. It says car parking is free. This is misleading as its actually parking on the road, which is free (if there are spaces), and if not is it in a nearby car park which is £12 per day (24 hours). The other issue is the cleanliness of the property, mainly crockery, cutlery and cupboards. On a positive although the yard isn't the most appealing the positioning within the town is spot on. "

Top Whalebone Arch Hotel Reviews

Kimberley House

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely big room. We had room 8 which was a down stairs room. It was clean airy and had a lovely big bed. A tv on the wall which moved around so you could watch it on the bed or the 2 seater sofa. There was a heater and a fan. Kettle and tea, coffee hot chocolate sugar, milk and biscuits. We only met Rachel and she was lovely and chatty and very helpful. Would definitely stay here again. It was a 5 minute walk into the town and it was lovely and quiet. We got the parking permit which was £5 for the whole stay and can park on the streets around the hotel. We never had a problem finding a space."

Royal Whitby

8/10 Good

"On the whole great. We had a renovated room which was well designed and comfortable"

The Riviera Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Our room had a stunning view of the North Sea and was comfortable and exactly what we wanted. The location was amazing and only a short walk to lots of restaurants. Breakfast was great and the hosts were very friendly and helpful."

La Rosa Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely little boutique hotel run by super friendly hosts. The rooms are quite something and the place is chock full of eccentric vintage finds, it has real character. We had a deep, luxurious bath in our room and the vintage glass bottle of bubble bath was a nice touch. We had the breakfast (veggie continental) one morning and it was delicious, lots of fresh little picky bits to eat and drink. It’s up on the cliffs with a lovely view of the abbey but still an easy walk into town. Just sad we didn’t get to try the cocktail bar!"
