Royal Whitby

Royal Whitby

10/10 Excellent
"Check in was simple and easy, staff at check in were pleasant, friendly and efficient. Our room was larger than expected and spotlessly clean, bed was so comfy if a little high for a short person like myself, I had to virtually throw myself in to it. Our room had a sea view, there was some scaffolding but this didn't cause any problems. Bathroom also very clean and had plenty of room. Needed a couple of extra pillow and towels and asked if possible to have a rubber mat for the shower. We asked about these things on our way to dinner, when we got back to the room a brand new shower mat was hanging up along with extra towels and pillow. We ate in The Fat Badger on our first night and thoroughly enjoyed our meal, the starters of tomato and red pepper soup and the asparagus and goats cheese tart were outstanding. The main courses were also delicious but we struggled to finish so dessert was a no go unfortunately. We had breakfast every morning in the restaurant and were impressed by the range of things available and how staff kept everything moving with frequent hot food being brought to the hot buffet regularly. All in all we had an excellent stay at The Royal Hotel and wouldn't hesitate to recommended it to anyone. I'm pretty sure we'll be back too!! Thank you 😊"

"First time to Saltmoore, although visited in the past when it was Raithwaite Hall. Very much enjoyed our 2 night stay in the Beach House. Nice big room. We did not try the leisure facilities, as we were happy in the fresh ai,r walking along the beaches to Sandsend & Whitby. The weather was good, which helps too. We did eat in the Brasserie, which was excellent. It’s good to not pay over the odds for drinks too. A lovely place to visit and we will return."

"Excellent location on seafront. Free parking. Lovely staff. Nice bar and food available. Stayed here many times - usually excellent but disappointed with room this time. Adequate but basic looked out onto wall opposite, very dark Unfortunately next to noisy kitchen ventilation fan which was on most of time but turned off late evening. Would definitely recommend but avoid room 8"
