14. 2 Bed in Scarborough (oc-s027)

Scarborough

"We spent 3 nights here (myself and my two young sons). This cottage was plenty big enough with everything we needed and lovely and clean. The boys loved that they had their own floor with a shower room and also the best views of the harbour! The designated parking space was tiny and I had to pay to park in a public car park the whole time instead (at time of writing that is £9/24hrs in any car park, which isn’t bad). If I was visiting Scarborough again I’d stay here again. The location meant we...

Top North Yorkshire Hotel Reviews

Royal Whitby

8/10 Good

"The hotel is a very nice, old fashioned building. Fantastic location facing the Abbey. The staff were polite and helpful. The breakfasts were good. The atmosphere was lively, with lots of places to sit, have a drink and relax. The only slight downside was car parking charges, which had not been made clear when booking. However, compared to other car parks etc., the price was reasonable."

DoubleTree by Hilton Harrogate Majestic Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Large and grandiose Victorian hotel located close to town centre. Easy (though expensive) parking. Quick check-in. Nice large room except bathroom poorly laid out. Only two small lifts seemed inadequate for size of hotel. Very large and very grand common facilities including bar and restaurant. Nice breakfast."

Grand Hotel Scarborough

8/10 Good

"Staff welcoming. The room was clean. Paid for a sea view doubled/twin room. The windows were small and high which meant I couldn’t see out whilst sitting down. Jacuzzi buttons in bath didn’t work, but plenty of hot water for a relaxing bath … even without the jets! Bed comfortable and I was able to control the radiator heat."

Penny Hedge, Whitby by Marston's Inns

8/10 Good

"Really lovely staff. Room had everything we needed for the night although the second bed wasn't made when we checked-in, but they did make it while we were out later that evening. Breakfast was okay for the price but it was the friendly staff that really stood out for us."

The Skipton Hotel

8/10 Good

"Staff were friendly and very helpful. Breakfast choices were very good and plentiful. However the room was very dated and in need of renovation and had a funny smell when you walked in. The bedroom lacked any real style - blind needed replacing and the bathroom reminded us of a prison bathroom (all grey in colour)and stuck in the 80s with some broken fixtures so rather disappointing. The newly refurbished dining room looked good though!"
