The hotel's location is perfect on the seafront, offering easy access to the beach and town center. The rooms are spacious and modern, with excellent wheelchair access. However, the dining experience could have been more diverse, and Wi-Fi comes at an additional cost.

The hotel is tucked away in a quiet location in the center, close to the beach, and surrounded by a clean and tranquil environment. The rooms are spacious for a bedroom, well-equipped for our young children, though the bathroom is very small. The service had a few minor hiccups at the reception desk but otherwise fantastic once we got settled. Dining provided tasty salads, though we wished for more variety, with the convenience of included dining options. Overall, a comfortable stay with a great location but minor room and service issues.

I had a delightful stay at the hotel, enjoying the newly refurbished rooms with a wonderful view of the Abbey. The location in the center of Whitby was ideal, making it easy to explore the area on foot. However, there were some small hiccups with the service initially. The dining experience included a variety of meat options but lacked some variety for non-meat eaters.
