    Consider trying the local dining options instead of hotel meals, as the food can be hit or miss, especially during busy hours.

    great location

    I stayed at the royal for 2 nights with my partner and was genuinely surprised. The location was fantastic, very close to everything. The staff were lovely and always helpful. The sea view room we upgraded to was lovely, especially seeing the abbey lit up in the evenings.

    Charming Spot for a Short Getaway

    A lovely stay with amazing views! The staff provided really good service. Try the breakfast for delicious locally sourced options, but arrive early to ensure freshness. Parking in the rear is convenient, just be mindful of the limited spaces. Perfect for exploring Whitby.

    Cozy and Convenient Stay!

    Just spent a night here and it was a pretty good experience! The staff were super friendly and helped me with the car parking. My room was comfy, and the shower was massive, best I've had! Only downside was the room view wasn't great-faced the loading bay. Breakfast was tasty too!

    pleasant stay with minor drawbacks

    The bed in our room was comfortable. The proximity to the beach allowed us to enjoy beautiful walks along the shore.
