"Lovely little boutique hotel run by super friendly hosts. The rooms are quite something and the place is chock full of eccentric vintage finds, it has real character. We had a deep, luxurious bath in our room and the vintage glass bottle of bubble bath was a nice touch. We had the breakfast (veggie continental) one morning and it was delicious, lots of fresh little picky bits to eat and drink. It’s up on the cliffs with a lovely view of the abbey but still an easy walk into town. Just sad we...

Top Whalebone Arch Hotel Reviews

The Europa

8/10 Good

"There was nothing to fault this stay only issue was the duvet was thinner than I like but nothing at all to knock any points or complaint just my preference"

The Dolphin

10/10 Excellent

"breakfast was very good server was brilliant"

Saxonville Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It’s been a long time since I stayed at a hotel with silverware on the restaurant tables - all immaculately cleaned and polished. In fact the whole hotel was clean and well maintained. The waitresses were professional and friendly. I would definitely choose this hotel in the future."

YHA Whitby - Hostel

8/10 Good

"Comfortable bed in private room. The school group were noisy running & jumping in the room above but when I went to report it to reception it immediately fell silent and was quiet all night - so a great night's sleep 😴 would have been nice to have had a chair in the room - there was a cube that had to serve as a bedside table / seat. Great location adjacent to abbey and minutes from the 199 steps and a fab brewery for beer & pizza. Lovely gardens Spacious lounge & conservatory. Friendly helpful staff Bonus free ticket to abbey. Would definitley stay again 😀"

The Riviera Guest House

8/10 Good

"A good, clean property with a spacious room. King sized bed roomy but mattress a little soft (but just my preference for a harder mattress). Bathroom very spacious with a bath as well as a shower (I prefer a bath). The owner upgraded us to this room free of charge so that was a lovely gesture. We found the decor a little old fashioned-again not quite our style. Biscuits accompanied our tea/coffee making facilities, a nice touch, but only normal tea and coffee, no herbal teas offered. On arrival the owner told us about the parking permit (very good value £5 for 2days) although we had already put money in a meter across the road from the property so had we known about this beforehand we would not have paid at the meter unnecessarily. (Perhaps I had missed reading such useful info in the blurb beforehand?) The breakfast was very tasty and plentiful although I would have like a croissant and/or pan au chocolat to be offered."

LilyRose Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great view and room was comfy and well equipped."

Kimberley House

10/10 Excellent

"Spotlessly clean. Great cooked English breakfast. 4 star hotel. Great location. £5 on street parking permit for two nights stay, more available if you are staying longer. Comfortable rooms and beds. Sleek system of operation, if you don't have breakfast the chances are you won't see the owners, but try and see them, as they are a lovely couple. We wood definitely come again."

La Rosa Hotel

10/10 Excellent

The Beaches Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Clean well maintained room, warm friendly helpful host and excellent breakfast"
