    Scarborough has sone lovely buildings and history.

    Scarborough has sone lovely buildings and history. The beaches are nice but weather was bad so they were closed due to high tide flooding street at harbour. Lots of places shit so we struggled to find places to eat breakfast not many cafes open, evenings not many places to eat as lots shut early as seems out of season. The Scarborough arms pub we found near the apartment was the best, great food and beer, lovely building and atmosphere. Best food in town. High street lots of shops and pretty bustling. Police about so felt safe. Just found did most of it in 2 days so long enough for us

    Scarborough is a traditional British seaside resort with 2 fantastic beaches to enjoy. There is so much to do in both areas, the North Bay beach is less commercial with beautiful and colourful beach huts and a few fantastic restaurants and bars and places to get ice cream. At the very end of this bay is the Sea Life Centre which is a great day out, especially if the weather isn't great. Peasholm Park is also on the North side where you can enjoy a walk or a trip on a dragon pedalo and just over the road is the Open Air Theatre. Take a walk or a bus around Marine Drive to access the vibrant South Bay where you'll find a lovely harbour, amusements and another beach. Plenty of varied places to eat and drink. Be aware of tide times as the tide comes nearly all the way in (sometimes all the way in and over!) so this can influence your beach day! This review just scratches the surface of things you can do! Plus Bridlington is just a short drive down the coast and Whitby and Robin Hoods Bay up the coast - the North Yorkshire Moors and all the wonderful things you can do there makes Scarborough a great base to explore the area!

    We loved the arcades/amusements. Fish & chips on the beach, fresh donuts. It was very busy when we went so this impacted our enjoyment. Enjoyed Marisco lounge & capplemans chippy (both great gluten free options)

    Scarbrough is a secret haven.

    Scarbrough is a secret haven. There is something for everyone. Arcades, shops and cafes close to the beach. A bus ride from south to the north of Scarbrough. Peasholm Park at the north bay has lovely walks, cafe and boat rides. The town is ten minutes walk to the beach. Tramway down to the beach at the South Cliff. South cliff has beautiful gardens and walks.

    Great place to visit and I love the fact you can get on the trams up and down from the beachfront seaside part of the town to the main shopping part of the town its very well set out with a good selection of shops, cafes, restaurants and bars. Scarborough has outstanding scenery and to take a different approach to that scenery they have boat trips which are very reasonably priced and great crew. Thers a lot to do in Scarborough there's a small fair picturesque walks a castle arcades and many attractions including a sea life centre, peasholme Park and a open air theatre, close by is Robin hoods Bay and above there is whitby and York is only a short tide away on the train making Scarborough a great location.

    It's the first time we have stayed at the Royal,0 and we only went room only, so cannot gage on food etc ..but the room was very good and clean ...access was excellent ..it was right in the place we needed it...just over the road to the lift down to the coastline, and round the corner for the high street...I have mobility issues, and was very happy I was on relatively flat areas wherever I wanted to go to outside.. so I will definitely book the Royal Hotel again when we come to Scarborough.

    Location is secondary to this Hotel.... The Hotel itself should be on a place to go to and enjoy. Having said that: ignore Scarborough. Go to Cayton Beach - half hour walk, 5 mins car from the hotel. Then go to Beverly, Whitby or Robin Hoods Bay . The Farrier is an experience you should have. One of the best Hotels I have ever had the pleasure of staying at. Staff, Food, Rooms: exceptional. High end Kitchen. Down to Earth Staffing. High Value Surroundings. Perfect.

    We didn't have breakfast but the hotel has the best views in Scarborough especially the room we were so lucky to get with the bay window (101). The receptionist was so professional and friendly and put us at ease and helped us with any questions we had and we didn't have to wait long to get the keys to our room. She also helped us with the special parking ticket and we were able to park quite easily close by which was a weight off our minds.

    Great first impressions, friendly welcome by the host and helpful friendly staff. Lovely large, immaculately clean ensuite room with comfortable bed. Excellent quality evening meal with great choice and equally excellent breakfast. Could not fault anything about this lovely traditional Inn that has so much character including a lounge with open fire. Would much rather stay here than in a chain hotel, cannot wait to return.

    Very friendly and helpful team led by Claire. The property is situated perfect for a short walk to the beach or into town in what I would consider to be the best part of Scarborough. Parking was easy and permits available. (We managed to park directly outside the hotel. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Thanks Claire and team, we’ll be back in a heartbeat, Dan xo

    Elevated position overlooking south beach. Stunning views. Parking (which is a challenge everywhere in Scarborough). The room was clean and warm with a nice big bed and a small lounge area with two chairs and a table and a small desk. The restaurant was a typical bland hotel offer but the food was OK and not overpriced. Lilian looked after us very well.

    I didn't have to meet the owner as there's a system where the door code and then the safe box containing room keys are given in order to allow you access to the hotel and room. It has the best view in Scarborough, and real good location, for a pretty respectable price. Also: good amount of tea, coffee, sugar and milk in rooms.

    The location was right in the middle of the old town of Scarborough. The house had recently been modernised to a very high standard. The house had everything you might need. It was like home from home. There is street parking right outside the house and the hosts give you a parking permit to cover your stay.
