Staff were lovely and very helpful. The room was lovely and clean, the only issue was the heated towel radiator which looked very much like it had seen better days. Other than that thoroughly enjoyed it.

Historic hotel which is currently working hard to bring itself back to it's best with a really big re-vamp. Great location right above the famous whale bone arch, walking distance into Whitby itself was less than 5 mins. Good bar/restaurant and nice, clean and comfortable rooms.
