Lovely clifftop hotel with the most stunning views of Scarborough's North Bay. Room was very clean upon check-in, only flaw was no housekeeping but they would come clean your room and replenish anything if you request for it. Staff were very pleasant and efficient. Would definitely stay there again and ensure I book an oceanfront room.
We were given a ground floor double room and it was first rate, clean, warm and cozy. We ate in house, Bar meals which were good value and tasty. The staff very obliging and helpful at all times.
We would certainly come back again without hesitation.
Fab hotel, our room was large, well equipped and spotless. The staff were really helpful and friendly, and the location was great overlooking the beach. I would definitely recommend and we will be back!
Windows were a little dirty on the outside but it is that time of year. Other than that was a lovely friendy clean place in a lovely location. We will definitely be returning
