The view from our superior junior suite was breathtaking. The room was spacious with two comfortable armchairs, so we could sit in them and admire the bay, the piers and Whitby cathedral. The breakfast was also excellent. I highly recommend the Royal Whitby Hotel.

We stayed in a lovely newly renovated family room. It was lovely and spacious and had a great little bunk bed for the kids. The hotel seems really clean and very popular. We didn’t sample the breakfast as we were out exploring, but we’ve had a lovely stay.
