Stunning
Pros:

The spot is awesome, our room (#1) was right on the pier, and the view was amazing. The staff was super nice. Breakfast was really good. We loved our stay.

Cons:

It was clean, but because of where the room was, there was sand a bit all over the place.

Our stay at the duke of york whitby
Pros:

The staff were brilliant couldn't do enough for you the room was excellent we had a family room with an amazing sea view. The only down fall was the kitchen was closed at 8pm we couldn't eat they had ran out of food. However they did cateter for our 2 young grandsons but we had to go out and eat.when we came back at 10-30pm the bar was closed even to residents. A little disappointing however they did offer my husband a drink to take to the room, not what we wanted but thats how it was. Would definitely go back and we definitely recommend just be mindful of eating and wanting to relax in the bar at the end of the day. Not sure if that was a one off but it was disappointing.
