Cleanliness
6.5
Multiple reviewers reported pet smell in corridors, stained shower fittings, dirty bathroom curtain, slow-draining sink and drain smells, and a cigarette smell in the lift — lowers overall cleanliness impression.
Service
9
Staff are repeatedly described as friendly, helpful and amazing on several stays; isolated report of an unfriendly checkout interaction but overall service is a strong positive.
Location
9.5
Consistently praised: excellent location close to beach/centre, great bay views and convenient for attractions — a clear strong point across reviews.
Room Quality
9
Many guests mention large, comfortable rooms, good views and well-equipped rooms (fridge, hairdryer, iron). Some rooms were reported as excessively hot and a few maintenance issues (sash window, bathroom button) but overall very positive.
Amenities
9
Good on-site amenities noted (bar area, parking, stocked mini-fridge, toiletries, iron/ironing board). Minor negatives: poor fan provided and limited local walk/ride info.
Value for Money
7.5
Mixed signals: described by one as a budget option but others note high restaurant prices and extra charges (small dog fee); generally acceptable value but not outstanding.
Food and Beverage
8
Food receives praise in places (‘‘really good’’) but breakfast cooked options are limited/poorly executed for some guests, and restaurant menu choices/pricing drew criticism.
Overall Experience
9.5
Majority of stays described as enjoyable, many guests plan to return or were on repeat stays; strong overall satisfaction despite a few issues.

A gem on the Yorkshire coast
Pros:

Friendly staff, good location for the beach, quirky decor. The free cake at 4 o'clock was a nice touch. A great place to stay for dog lovers. Breakfast is done on a buffet basis, which is my preferred way of having breakfast in hotels.

Cons:

Nothing.

Pros:

Location, staff attentive nothing too much trouble
Evening meal excellent
The seaview room was lovely.
Coffee machine in lounge spot on, my 11 year old son loved the hot chocolate.
Bar and restaurant very nicely furnished.
I would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Scarborough who appreciates good quality understated accommodation.

Cons:

Breakfast was not as good as last time we stayed.
Fruit was tasteless and scrambled eggs were not appetising although generally a wide selection to cater for all dietary requirements. We decided to get breakfast elsewhere.

Parkers favourite hotel
Pros:

Very dog friendly. Brilliant grooming facilities. Staff were very attentive to our and our dogs needs. Parker loved the little dog toy waiting in our room.

Cons:

The seagulls screaming all night. Due to the heat we couldn't shut the windows but I don't think it would have made a difference.
