Loved by The Grand Scarborough Hotel guests
"It's a great location with great views across the sea, it was nice to have a fridge in room, the bedding and pillows were very clean and white,"
"The hotel itself is absolutely beautiful, with a Titanic-style sweeping staircase and various areas to be seated and have drinks and enjoy the atmosphere."
"Walking into the grand and looking at the foyer has airs of being on a Victorian cruise ship due to the decor, colours and music but in a good way."

Acceptable Stay, But Some Issues
convenient accessstained carpetsrickety furniture
the location proved convenient, offering easy access to nearby attractions.
The room showed its age with stained carpets and rickety furniture. It certainly needs updating. a distinct smell permeated the room upon arrival. the breakfast offered a basic selection, which led me to seek out alternatives at a nearby cafe.
