Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spectacular views from the rooms with large beds, suitable for families with teenage children. The location is superb, close to everything you need, though it sits at the top of a steep hill. The dining experience is mixed, with awesome views but poor service in some areas. Overall, a great choice for those seeking a memorable stay.
I had a fantastic experience at this hotel. The rooms were immaculate and offered breathtaking panoramic views, perfect for families with older children. The service was exceptional, especially from the helpful receptionist. The location was ideal, situated atop a steep hill with access to both the town center and South Beach. While the dining had an awesome view, the service and food quality were subpar. Overall, a great value for the price with top-notch amenities available.
The hotel offers fantastic views over Scarborough and separate beds in the rooms. The service was excellent, especially with the helpful receptionist and available pet amenities. Despite being at the top of a steep hill, the location provides a quick 10-minute walk to the seafront. The dining experience, though included, was below par, lacking quality service. Overall, a mixed but worthwhile stay.
