Be an Individual at Cleveland's Independent Hotels

Unless you're travelling on business and need the extra facilities chain hotels may offer, it makes sense to choose an independent hotel for your next holiday. Generally smaller than the larger chains, you can expect a more personalised service, so if you're travelling with children and/or pets, these hotels are often more flexible. Most are happy to provide cribs or roll-away beds for children and cater for special dietary requirements when it comes to breakfasts. Amenities on offer include free Wi-Fi, self-parking and assistance booking tours and tickets, invaluable if this is your first time visiting Cleveland!

Get Out And About in Cleveland

There's nothing quite like a day out at the beach, so after breakfast at your hotel (complimentary in many independent establishments), why not take the kids to Redcar Beach, where you'll find amusements, cafés and shops for the whole family? Here you can try a 'Lemon Top', a local speciality of dairy ice cream topped with a scoop of lemon sorbet - it's delicious! Adventurous types can give water sports such as kite surfing a go at Coatham Beach, or you can visit one of the many walking and heritage trails in the area.

Family-Friendly Amenities

Independent hotels in Cleveland may not offer all of the amenities larger chain hotels can, but they do offer a warm welcome to families, and are generally happy to help families with younger children in any way they can. Amenities such as free Wi-Fi and TVs in guest rooms are ideal to keep older children amused too, while free parking, on offer at many hotels, means you don't need to worry about packing light for your family holiday.
