An excellent stay. The staff were friendly throughout and the hotel was great value for money, with a very good breakfast. The location is excellent with easy access to Scarborough town centre and the South Bay

Well located in the centre of Scarborough and close to all shopping and amenities. A few minutes walk and you’re down on the seafront, funicular available for those who don’t dance the walk back up. Parking is always a pain in Scarborough but there’s an NCP car park across the road (£12 for 24 hours as at June 2025). Breakfast was well cooked and filling.

The Inn was a refreshing change from the usual hotel room in the usual hotel, and I'm glad i stayed there for two nights. First, the good. Ten rooms. A bar downstairs. The room was spotless, and the bath appeared to have been rwcently rehabbed. Everything worked well. The rooms are on the second and third floors, reachable either by stairs or a two person lift. The lift of course, a boon for those with luggage. The location of the inn was, for me, optimal. A ten minute walk from the train station, a similar walk to stairs, and more getting you down to the South Beach. A breakfast at no cost is served from 8:30 for about 90 minutes on the first floor. Coiked to order. Standard Brit breakfast fare. Well done. Kudos to the cook/wait person Now to the other: Internet access is to 'the cloud', where you must have a (free) account. The issue was that for the durtion ofthe stay, access was spotty. Youd get logged off after loggin in repeatedly and just s often not able to login. This is easily fixable, and not rocket science. Secondly, while there were plenty of pillows for the bed, they were hard. New pillows, please. And, thats about it. Fix those items and Bob's your uncle!

Location was great, close to beach and amenities. Bar staff were friendly. Breakfast staff were very inattentive, food was inedible - all meat items burnt and egg uncooked, hash brown was charred black - I would have been embarrassed to serve it.

Property is in a good area close to the town centre and the beach across from the tram down to the seafront.Room was clean and tidy with a comfortable double bed although you could hear passing traffic and the seagulls if your a light sleeper. Breakfast the next day was freshly cooked with a choice of cereal, fruit juice and fresh coffee.All in all a good place to stay at a reasonable price

Top floor room which was adequate for our one night stay to see a band locally. The adjoining Pub was excellent. Our only gripe was there was no hot water at 9 am despite running taps for several minutes.
