2nd time we have stayed at the Royal. This time was a great improvement, stayed in a brand newly refurbished room, 1st class accommodation, close to the town centre for pubs restaurants and entertainment. Definitely will be back again highly recommended.

It was a fine place to stay in Whitby for a few days. Close to the centre (but up a big hill). The hotel is a bit faded and could do with some redecoration, but other than that it was perfectly fine. Staff very friendly and accomodating. Lovely view over the sea.

I have stayed here on many occasions, but during this trip was presented with ongoing works to all the inside rooms which impacted on access and egress from our sea view room.

6/10 Good

The room itself was great. Plenty of space, clean and a lovely sea view. The down sides were the lift wasn't working so not great for disability problems. The single glazed wooden sash window suffered pretty badly with condensation which explains the lack of paint on the wood and the noise from outside wasn't filtered in any way at all. Not great when your above the exit door to the hotel bar where noisy smokers get louder as the evening progresses. I would stay again if I could pick my room before booking.

Great location & friendly & helpful staff. No.mean feat on one of the busiest weekends of the year. Good breakfast & fab view of the Abbey, sea & estuary from our room. Couldn't have been better for our 1st Whitby Goth weekend.

Royal hotel.
Fantastic stay at this hotel. Room was amazing, a bit dated but definitely made me say wow as I entered the room. Staff were very polite and professional. Restaurant staff were very friendly and offered very good advice on the menu.

Will not return
Room was tiny - lots of stain marks on the walls / ceiling Despite booking for B&B we were told we were room only so didn’t have breakfast - couldn’t check booking due to poor phone reception in Whitby therefore wasted money ! Room too hot and couldn’t turn radiator off And the worst part was the lift was broke !!! This should be in the website as we would not of booked here Will not return to this hotel !

A welcoming dog friendly hotel
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Royal Hotel where the staff were very welcoming and friendly. It has sea views an is in an excellent location. We hadn’t realised before our arrival that we needed to pre book a car parking space which meant that we had to use a roadside meter which was more expensive and less convenient than the car park. Fortunately we managed to secure a space on the hotel overspill carpark on our second day after waiting outside the carpark until someone checked out. Our room was very clean, warm and well decorated although the window was extremely high. The food was very tasty and there was an excellent choice for breakfast. It was dog friendly and although we were not able to eat in the dining room, the bar area was very comfortable and we were happy to be able to have our dog with us.

Seaside hotel
Typical slight decaying British seaside hotel. Saying that though it was clean, decent room with sea view and it had charm plus very central, decent fairly cheap parking.
