Top Whitby Hotel Reviews

Royal Whitby

Royal Whitby

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel was clean and comfortable and offered a great atmosphere. The staff were extremely gracious and helpful. The restaurant and bar offered a great menu, and the food was delicious. While the hotel is not air-conditioned, the temperature was still comfortable. There are quite a few stairs involved in getting to the various wings of the hotel."
