Grand Hotel Scarborough

Grand Hotel Scarborough

8/10 Good
"After reading review I was dubious about our stay, we booked a family room for 2 adults and 2 teens, we paid a bargain price of £69 for the night i assumed cheap would mean the worst room but I was so wrong we had a spacious beautiful room with the best view of the sea and coast line the hotel its self is historical and beautiful, absolutely loved our stay my only slight complain would be the mattress it wasn't comfortable other than that I would recommend this hotel and will use again."

"We stayed in room 314 and our room was spotless apart from window not staying open. Spa was good although jacuzzi broke on 2 days which was disappointing. Breakfast was nice although a little cold and tea/coffee machine not working but we asked for tea in a pot which came straight away Enjoyed our stay apart from seagulls early morning squawking"

Grand Villa Heights

Grand Villa Heights

8/10 Good
"We had a lovely stay at Grandvilla Heights and really enjoyed our time there. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. The only downside was that we were allocated a room on the third floor with an attic-style layout. While it offered plenty of space, the sloping ceiling meant we had to be careful not to bump our heads, which was a bit inconvenient. Overall, it was a pleasant stay, and we would still recommend the property."
