Guest UserHotel was quite easy to find & access was quite good. Good car parking arrangement with the council for 2 day's. Disappointment the hotel didn't offer an evening meal so we had to go out & find it which wasn't ideal as when booking we noticed a restaurant on site. Only coach parties would be entertainment apparently.
Breakfast covered hot & continental which was good to us.
Our room however was far from satisfactory to us but we tolerated it & didn't complain. The bathroom door handle was troublesome to open so instead of fixing it they put a sign on the door telling us what to do.. The bathroom blind was also broken.
The very small room had a tiny bed which was far from comfortable. We paid a lot for 2 nights which we regret so alas we won't be returning.

ArtistaThe grand exterior of the hotel is impressive, but the rooms are very dated. There is no air conditioning, so booking a room with a window is a must for summer. I booked a window room, though the window required some effort to open. Some rooms do provide fans.
On the plus side, the price is budget-friendly, and the location is incredibly convenient, right next to the beach and the cliff tram, with shops within easy walking distance.
Note that check-out is early at 10AM, and late check-out requires an extra fee. Also, the hotel does not offer free parking, you will need to find paid street parking nearby. It isn’t expensive, but it takes time to find a space during holidays.

Anonymous UserThe guy at the reception was friendly, the hotel is in need of a revamp, the rooms are very basic, the place was quiet during the night we stayed for one night and it served it's purpose, and it was a cheap stay so wasn't expecting 5* material, there is off street parking but not massive we parked down the street, not wheelchair friendly, they is a pool but it's not in use anymore,

MayneNI had a really lovely stay here. The hostel is in a great location, very close to the city centre and easy to reach on foot. The building itself is beautiful, cosy and full of character, with a charming old-fashioned feel.
The cleanliness was 10/10 for me. Considering that it is a hostel with people constantly coming and going, I was genuinely impressed by how clean everything was, especially compared with other hostels I have stayed in.
The staff are very friendly and welcoming, and the common area is comfortable and cosy. There is no kitchen, but breakfast is available in the morning at a reasonable price.
There can be a little noise from the street outside, but overall this is an excellent place to stay. I would especially recommend it to women travelling solo. I felt safe and comfortable during my stay.
One extra tip: don’t spend your whole trip only in the city. If you are visiting between May and September, take one of the longer local bus routes towards the coast. The journey itself is beautiful, with wonderful countryside and coastal views, and it is a great way to see another side of the area.
I would definitely stay here again.

jolifillA really great stay! The hotel's location is excellent, and the room was large and very clean. It's just a five-minute walk from the central station and the bus station. Right next to the hotel is the old city wall, and from our room's window, we had an amazing and expansive view of it. The pure English breakfast was a bit simple, with not much variety, and the taste was just average.

Shell AAt the moment the Royal Hotel is undergoing a multi-million pound renovation project so some rooms that still need a little TLC is only to be expected.
I stayed in a standard single with sea view and what a view it was. That alone was worth every penny I paid and, for Whitby, it was a bargain.
The room itself was more than adequate and, with the exception of a bedside table for my phone and drink, it had everything I needed.
The bathroom was massive, bigger than my own at home so no complaints there either.
Whether you want your room cleaned or not, every day a package of tea, coffee, sugar, milk and toilet roll is left for you and if you need anything else, including any essentials you may have forgotten, you just need to ask at reception. We were all even gifted an Easter egg on Easter Sunday which was a lovely, thoughtful touch.
The hotel itself is really lovely and I can highly recommend The Fat Badger restaurant and bars downstairs and every single member of staff I spoke to was lovely and extremely helpful.
The only downside to booking The Royal Hotel is the climb back up on an evening but it's a very small price to pay for the best views in town.

Posted on Aug 8, 2026|Superior River View Family Room
HuanyanzyAt 1700 [currency unit] a night, this was already the cheapest of the four hotels we stayed at in the UK. York's overall cost of living is much lower than Edinburgh and London. It was a family room with one double bed and two very small sofa beds. The hotel is by the river and is an older building. The room window was right next to one of the sofa beds and had cobwebs on it. I was a bit afraid of bugs crawling in if I opened it. There was no air conditioning; it wasn't hot outside that day, but it was quite warm inside due to poor ventilation, so I slept with the fan on.

First the positives.
The room was very clean, comfortable and bathroom was obviously recently refurbished.
Breakfast was excellent and good value, but more on that later.
Now the not so good, or could do better!
The check in policy is ludicrous, I understand they need to have a designated check in time, but whilst waiting (40 minutes) I overheard the staff clearly stating that all rooms were ready for guests, but as people were entering the reception they were informed that check was not possible until 3pm and they had to wait or pay £10.00 for an early check in!
The result was a packed reception and when they did commence check in, due to a “new system “ it was painfully slow! Very poor customer service.
The breakfast was good value, but the attitude of the cashier guy was poor at best, probably rude if to be defined. On approaching him I was asked “ breakfast for two “ to which I replied “ no there’s only one” to which he snapped “ well I’m not to know that!”
Not expected and yes rude!
