10/10 Exceptional

I didn't connect to the wifi do can't comment on that but the hotel is ifeally placed for the beach and shops but with quite a few steps and a slope down (there is a lift down to the sea front). Unfortunately, our room overlooked the car park but i imagine there are rooms that look out over the estuary and the piers
N, 1-night trip

Great staff and service

Staff were all super friendly and welcoming. Room was spacious and comfortable, with a lovely view of the harbour and abbey. The bathroom could do with an update, and there were no complementary toiletries, but it was also spacious and the water pressure was great.

Cosseted at the Whitby Royal

Excellent friendly staff. Shame lift was out of order still and air con would have been nice on the third floor. Loved the quirky steam-punk themed decor. Will stay here again.
