My stay was such great on a weekend. The food was fabulous - plenty of options. The single room was comfortable with exceptionally comfortable beds. The location of the hotel was perfect - not very far from a history museum.

Staff and location here were good. And it also had absolutely stunning view. Homey hotel located near to the centre of town. Again, not far from beach whitby.

I had a very nice stay, thank you so much! Exotic and spotless place, incredibly attentive staff. I enjoyed having eggs, fresh bread, pastries and bacon in the morning. Double room was bright and freshly decorated. Unbeatable location to Larpool Viaduct.

It's literally just a walk down to pannett park. Enjoyed staying at this guest house and would happily return. We went to Quayside for dinner, it was only 300 metres away and we were satisfied. Perfect for city trip
