Nice stay
A very "posh" looking building and equally so inside. The room was basic but large as was the bathroom yet in need of a few touch ups. Comfortable and clean.

Amazing. I enjoyed staying at your hotel very much. Big clean room, great hotel in general with plenty of interesting decorations. Nice staff. One minor issue, there was no shower gel in the container. Aside from that 5 star, I will happily come again. Thank you very much 👍

Great Location for weekend away!
Great central location and reasonably priced hotel. Staff very helpful and friendly. The hotel was obviously very grand in the past, and still looks impressive but is in need of some modernisation. I’d certainly stop here again

A needed break.
All members of staff from reception to service in the dining room were very friendly and good at their job. The meals and service in the dining room were excellent! The hotel has wonderful Victorian features and charactor. Location of this hotel is especially good for access to the cliff funicular giving easy access to the promenade.

Hotel is very tired and in poor condition. Mould on bathroom ceiling and food not great albeit is designed for retired residents. The most annoying thing is I booked this hotel as it advertised car parking, it doesn’t, car parking is down the road (if available) at a charge of £8 per day. Hotels should not say they have car parking if they don’t. I have to carry work equipment in my car and don’t want to leave it parked on the side of a public road.

If I had been told by hotels.com about the charges and difficulty with parking around The Royal Hotel Scarborough, I would not have booked at that Hotel. As it happens we sorted an alternative parking place but it would not have suited visitors who have difficulty walking. The Hotel and Staff were excellent.
