The Royal Hotel Whitby

The room was nice and big and the bathroom was lovely and warm, The beds were comfortable. There were plenty of places to sit with our friends in the evening, we didn't have to sit in a busy, noisy bar. The breakfast on the first day was excellent as we could order what we wanted because the hotel was quiet. It was a buffet on the second day but that was pretty good too. The view from our room on the top floor was excellent and it only took 5 minutes to walk down from the hotel into the town. The private car park is great tooo.

The sea view room was a good size and the bed was comfortable, good size bathroom with a powerful over head shower, clean towels provided, the room was a bit cool but clean, plenty of storage and chairs to sit on, even had an electric heater. Staff where always pleasant and helpful. Gluten free options for breakfast and evening meal, just ask the staff when they show you to your table. I am celiac and had no problems after eating their meals, even had gluten free Peroni in a bottle at the bar.

The location was excellent. Within walking distance of the train station and all the places we wanted to visit - the beach, the abbey, the harbour. The view from our room was amazing. The hotel was huge with plenty of space for everyone to spread out. There was a ballroom, a lounge, a restaurant and a bar. The breakfast buffet was similar to other hotels as far as the food was concerned but the location was spectacular. Three newly decorated rooms. Our room was large and with all the facilities you’d expect - TV, kettle, tea and coffee, and a hairdryer. The bathroom had both a bath and shower giving us the choice. The location was also quiet so we slept well.

Staff were all so approachable, professional, and friendly at all points of contact. Spacious room with superb views. Very clean. Excellent shower. Lift wasn't available due to refurbishment but quickly relocated an accessible room. We parked right outside with a blue badge, which was extremely convenient! We would DEFINITELY return here. Thank you for a wonderful time to a great team!

Absolutely beautiful hotel, we stayed in the new family room which was lovely, we was really impressed with the extra bedroom, for our little boy. The new bar was wonderful, we had a few ales before we sat down at the restaurant. The food was absolutely beautiful, best place I’ve eaten for a while, we had some lovely wine from the wine list and the service was excellent from walk in the hotel to leaving. We had breakfast in the morning which again was beautiful. We can’t wait to be back!! it’s having a lot of work done, but with all the wonderful things, you ignore the work on the refurbishment. Can’t wait to see the end! I know we will be back this summer
