Very central

Lovely little hotel, very central to town. We chose the hotel as we were there for a festival at the Spa, it is just a few minutes away from Scarborough Spa. The staff are friendly and very kind. Plenty of restaurants and cafes around, and it's just a short stroll to the beach. The hotel also provides earplugs as the seagulls can get rather loud.

Almost a home from home, clean room, comfortable bed, lovely breakfast served by friendly staff that couldn't do enough for you. Also a surprise Easter chocolate gift. It will be my first consideration when returning to Scarborough.

Arrived but unable to park near the property which was a concern due to mobility issues despite stating self parking available. Bedroom was well equipped but small. Did not have breakfast so cannot comment. For the price we paid, it would have been better if it did come with some breakfast !

Scarborough Riviera

This is an elegant B&B establishment, situated right in the centre of Scarborough, giving access to beaches and buses, station and shops, as well as restaurants and the renowned SJT Theatre. Despite being an elderly building, the rooms are very comfortable and the breakfasts of a very high standard, with friendly, attentive service. Parking (as everywhere in the town) can be difficult, but loading and unloading is permitted outside the hotel and car parks are within easy reach. A most enjoyable visit which we hope to repeat.

Not Scarborough Fair but Scarborough Outstanding

Despite the more than 200 year age of this building, this is an extremely comfortable establishment, with just the occasional creak to betray it's heritage. Situated near to the beaches, the shopping areas and the theatre, the hotel has a refined atmosphere with very efficient, friendly service all round. The breakfast is served in elegant surroundings with a very enjoyable variety of options, making for an overall extremely pleasant stay. We will return.

The hotel was lovely, it was a bit dated and the plug for the iron was loose. (Told on departing) The breakfast was lovely and plenty to choose from. The only thing was the lift, on two occasions we had to use the stairs because someone had left the lift door open which was annoying.

The property was of the time of the victorian era, rooms clean and tidy, staff very nice and friendly, food very good. Only down side was the parking very closely pack in to the point that we didn't think we would get back in. Which I dont think it is there fault. So a 4 and 5 from us.😆
