What I would like to see is the halls, general areas and stairways redecorated and new carpets laid. Other than that, everything was excellent.

A great hotel, staff in all area’s excellent, only one problem the last three times this year that we have been to the Royal the one and only lift has broken down and that has been very difficult for a lot of people.

Comfy and welcoming”
Excellent value - fantastic location, clean, comfortable, and lovely welcoming staff. It's not fancy or modern but I'd happily stay here again and again.

Cheap & cheerful sums this hotel up. The location is superb with sea views on two sides. Unfortunately they’d lost our booking when we arrived but did eventually find it. We hadn’t upgraded so we were given a room at the back with a car park view. There was a good choice for breakfast. Not the best but could be worse. The evening meal less impressive. Again cheap and cheerful, adequate. The hotel looked somewhat shabby and in need of updating. It served our purpose for an overnight stop on a cycling trip. The room was basic but clean. Nothing to really complain about, slightly on the expensive side for what it was.

Great Rooms”
The hotel foyer is very tired. We stayed in a superior room with sea views. The room had been recently refurbished and was really nice with fantastic views over the harbour and sea. Comfortable beds and a small table and chairs in front of the floor to ceiling window. The room was warm even with strong winds outside

Faded grandeur”
Great location overlooking Whitby, the Royal Hotel has probably seen better days. I'd have to say a few things in the room didn't quite work properly, but while some of the staff appeared a little inexperienced, they did everything they could to be helpful and were very friendly.

Great location, reasonable value, needs refurbishment”
Great location on the cliff with stunning views. Good breakfast and reasonably priced. The place is quite run-down though - the lift broke down while we were there, which was very unfortunate given that so many elderly people with mobility problems stay at the hotel.

Perfect location with great outlook, but a old grand hotel which looks tired and needs some money spent on it to bring it up to standard.

Otherwise good room and all, but one thing catched my eye, the shower head was really dirty, moldy.

Above average”
The hotel said room with sea view which we did have however the windows were filthy inside and out .the room was adequate but not worth the price. The paint was peeling off the window frames especially in the bathroom. The staff were fantastic couldn’t do enough for us and always very polite. Brilliant breakfast lots of choices. We were on the third floor there is only one very small lift not good when it breaks down.

I would have given this review one star but have given it two because the water was hot and the bed comfortable but the standard of the room was very poor.
