Excellent

The rooms was spotless very comfortable beds and the breakfast was amazing the fry bread was the best I have ever tasted and the hosts john and Julie where very helpful and polite and made us feel at home we arrived has gusts left has friends

We were able to park outside the hotel. The room was very clean and tea, coffee, biscuits were provided. John ordered us a taxi and asked us what we would like for breakfast, which was delicious.

Had no issues at all.

Great 2 night stay. John and Julie very friendly and the breakfast was superb.

Lovely place, nice rooms and fabulous owners . Beautiful breakfast !

John and Julie were excellent hosts. The care they went into to provide bespoke breakfasts for everyone was better than a 5 star hotel. Very convenient for the Open Air Theatre.

It was like being at home very friendly and welcoming breakfast was excellent I would recommend it we will be going there again next year

Very nice food and beach

John & Julie were fantastic hosts, nothing too much trouble and very kind, welcoming. Breakfast was great and the room was very comfortable.

It was all very good.

Julie and John are such lovely hosts, nothing is to much trouble. They make you feel right at home. Their breakfast is the best, with a lot of different choices.

There is nothing we didn't like.

Brilliant breakfast, hosts friendly.

Bathroom had black mould on ceiling and really needs updating

Excellent breakfast and Julie and John were great hosts.

We booked a small double room, but didn't realise how small the bathroom was. The mattress was lumpy and in need of replacing.

John and Julie are excellent at running a B&B fantastic cooked breakfast and the choice was way beyond expectations fantastic bed good shower heater fan and a kettle that boils fast 😃 my room was dated I didn't see the others nice size room for one and a well stocked bar you can get a takeaway brought in and eat in the dining room they get plates and cutlery they make you so relaxed.

Just needs a update to make it more at home.

Great location, very clean and had off road parking, a bar and outdoor seating, great choice of breakfast.

Great location , facilities and breakfast

All was good

Wonderful hosts, John & Julie do everything to make you feel comfortable, they’re very informative and helpful

BRILLIANT BREAKFAST, OVERFLOWING BASKET WITH TEA, COFFEE, ETC., AND CHOCOLATE BISCUITS.CLOSE TO PEASOME PARK AND THE SEA FRONT.A GREAT PLACE TO VISIT FOR THE OPEN-AIR CONCERT.

It was clean, and very welcoming

Liked everything Except the shower. To warm and was a bit far out for us old ones

Shower

Everything from arrival to checking out will definitely be back in the future both the owners can’t do enough to help you very professional

Julie and John were excellent hosts. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The breakfast was superb and the bed was very comfortable.

Bathroom was very small

Hôtes très accueillants, chaleureux, disponibles avec un grand sens du service

John and Julie were very friendly and made us feel very welcome.

John and Linda were excellent hosts and the breakfast was top marks. Also went to the trouble of getting me a card and present for my birthday. Best accommodation I’ve stayed in in a long time. Definitely return.

Nothing

Ideal location, very close to peasholme park and the open air theatre

Staff are friendly and helpful. In working distance to the open air theatre. Rooms was nice and clean and the breakfast was amazing. We will be booking again very soon

Amazing breakfast. Room nice and clean

The sink was quite small but at least we had a bathroom

Owners were great so helpful

Loved the bar

Frukosten var 10 av 10!! Trevlig och familjär atmosfär och bra pris i baren

Perfect location, hosts couldn’t do enough for us, would definitely recommend to stay here, John and Julie we’re incredible, was a got weekend so they provided fans etc, can’t wait to return, thank you for an unforgettable weekend x

The breakfast is excellent and John and Julie are fantastic host's. They are so friendly and welcoming, nothing is to much trouble.

There is nothing that we did not like.

From the first message John and Julie sent me everything was done so professionally. The hotel was very clean and presentable. On arrival I met John and asked if I could drop my overnight bag in before I went to watch the cricket at North Marine Road. John and Julie made me feel so welcome. The En-Suite room was very clean and comfortable, tea, coffee and snacks were provided as well. I will definitely go again 💖

I can't give a bad word about the owners, the Hotel and room

Breakfast was excellent.good choice of food cooked well.

Disappointed with the tiny bathroom.no shelves or hooks for toiletries,towels etc.no room to dry after shower.

Julie and John welcomed us has guest, but we left has friends, they are a really lovely couple doing a fantastic job. The breakfast was really good, and fresh ingredients, and also catered for my husband who is gluten free. The room was a small double, but had everything we needed, and was really clean.

Only a small niggle the mattress seemed like some of the springs could be felt through and was uncomfortable

John and Julie are excellent hosts. Nothing is too much trouble. Breakfast is superb, cooked fresh and plenty for even the biggest appetite! Room 9 was beautifully coordinated and the bed was extremely comfortable. Small bar downstairs was well stocked and opened mid afternoon ready for an aperitif before going out. Hosts have plenty of suggestions to dine out. Location is a 10 minute walk fron North Bay, excellent to walk along the beach front. Want a tea/coffee top up, no problem and no limits. Room was warm and cozy and quiet, even though the place was fully booked! Many of the guests were returning regulars. Ideally located for the open air theatre, 10 minutes away.

There was nothing we didn't like and we will be returning.

Excellent breakfast

My friendly and welcoming hosts went above and beyond to ensure my stay was great, including providing oat milk and a full vegan English breakfast. The room was spotless and the bed super comfortable.

Not applicable as everything was great!

Sehr herzliche Gastgeber, schönes Zimmer, wie beschrieben, sehr leckeres Frühstück. Sehr zu empfehlen!

Breakfast was superb and varied. Location great for getting into town.

The shower was a little slow but no real problem.

The staff couldn't do enough for you will definitely stay in the future when visiting the area over night

Fabulous breakfast. Lovely friendly hosts. Clean room.

Very busy road, because it was hot, very noisy with windows open. Did supply a fan.

Great location

Nothing

Julie & John were great hosts and very welcoming from booking in and during my stay very accomodating about my Breakfast needs and overall perfect, My room was excelent and very clean my bed was comfy and on suite facilities. There was a bar available. The Alma is close to all the local landmarks,town centre about 15 mins walking but you get get a bus outside. There is a cinema quite close by and Peasholme park very close by and local convienient store , Chippy and bars and restaurants North Beach close by, and a nice walk across the cliff top. I would certainley would stay again when next time in Scarborough.

I did not find anything I did not like.

Highly professional. Spotlessly clean. Fresh towels, toilet paper, tea and biscuits each day when required. Can come and go as you please. Filling and delicious breakfast - we could not eat all of it! Bar available in the evening for guests. Incredibly welcoming, Proprietors Julie and John on hand if required. Personal touches throughout.

The hosts John and Julie went above and beyond to make sure your stay was as best it could be and would definitely wouldn’t think twice about booking the almar again

The shower pressure wasn’t that powerful but maybe as we was on the top floor of guest house but didn’t spoil our stay

Friendly, welcoming and comfortable

Some noise from pipes ( can’t be helped)

Everything. Perfect hosts, perfect location. Breakfast was great. Nice touches in the room including little chocolate bars and hot chocolate.

Nothing!

The hosts were very friendly and helpful. The location was perfect, near Peasholm park and the North Bay seashore. And the breakfast was excellent.

It wasn't a problem for me, but my single room was on the 2nd floor via narrow stairs, so bear this in mind if you have mobility issues.

Love place with nice people running the hotel.

So friendly, kind and helpful, keen to make sure I had everything I needed and provide a personal service - rare these days! Very clean and well maintained. Delicious breakfast with wide range of options. A winner all round.

I liked it all!

John and Julie are lovely welcoming people. Nothing is too much trouble. The breakfast is amazing. John is a really great cook. Thank you for having us.

The warm welcome & hospitality of the owners, made to feel very comfortable and the breakfast was delicious. The chocolate biscuits on room refreshment tray was a real treat too.

The room & en-suite was compact but for one night we managed and wouldn’t put us off staying again.

John julie brilliant hosts made welcome from check in and throughout stay Breakfasr superb will definitely be back

Absolutely nothing to dislike

Very friendly hosts. Exceptional customer service and great breakfast.

Very warm welcome by John and Julie

Stairs to room at the top were a bit of a challenge. Hand basin in shower room difficult to use for shaving

In our room it was s bit small but it had everything you needed And was also clean, tea and coffee with some extras like bottle water And a choice of snacks. The breakfast was excellent you had a good choice And John and Julie couldn't do enough for us ,had a couple of drinks at the bar Very friendly crowd inside the place and also really cheap prices .

Breakfast amazing staff amazing

I like everything they are most beautiful couple I ever met ,I did feel very welcome and happy

The hospitality. The landlord and landlady couldn't have done more to make our stay really comfortable and enjoyable.

A bespoke non chain hotel. With so many personal touches. Great location. Nothing was too much! Welcome compliments of classic biscuit bars to teas and coffee plus hot coco. And bottled water in the room. Comfy bed. Breakfast made to order upon arrival. Everything clearly explained

That we only booked for the one night hehe

Fantastic staff. They genuinely want to help and we're warm and welcoming. Very close to lots of facilities Nice little bar and good food.

Nothing

The hosts are lovely people. The property is very clean and well kept. The breakfast is really good with plenty to eat.

Julie and John were excellent hosts. I stayed in room 9 that has been tastefully decorated and furnished. The room was very comfortable and exceptionally clean with all the facilities you needed. My stay was an unexpected stay so I didn't have any overnight things with me. Thus, Julie kindly provided me with a toothbrush and toothpaste at no cost and there was soap, shower gel and shampoo in the room so I was able to freshen up. The bed was very comfortable and the bed linen was clean and fresh. In terms of breakfast it was delicious - the scrambled egg was lovely and fluffy just how I like it. If I ever have to stay in Scarborough again I would certainly return and I have no hesitation in recommending The Almar 😍

Everything was fabulous - thank you Julie and John x

The hosts were superb. I was only here for one night, attending a funeral the next day. I left feeling like John and Julie were old friends. Fantastic breakfast, excellent value stay.

staff was very friendly and helpful

One of the best hotels I've ever stayed in the UK. Great location, friendly, caring workers (they are the hotel owners :), delicious breakfast and a lot of small really meaningful things (like bars of chocolate in the room, bottle of water, hot chocolate and friendly chats, small "thank you and very welcome back again" presents) made my staying at the hotel unforgettable! Highly recommend!!!

The hospitality and breakfast was excellent.

John and Julie, the Almar owners, were fantastic nothing was too much trouble, they are so friendly and inviting. I had a breakfast every morning and it was fantastic, the food was delicious all prepared by John, and served by the lovely Julie, they couldn't do enough for you. Location is ideal for all aspects of Scarborough, and getting the bus to Whitby was just up the road. All in all I had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend it, I'm looking forward to next year!!👍👍

There isn't anything to dislike really 🤔

The location was good within walking distance of the town centre and both bays. The breakfast was excellent. John and Julie were very friendly and helpful.

The quilt on the bed was a summer weight quilt so was not warm enough for a winter night. There wasn’t a blanket.

Lovely comfy bed, great breakfast and ideal location for everything.

Location great and breakfast was lovely. John and Julie couldn’t do enough to ensure we enjoyed our stay. Nice bar, which was a nice little bonus

Shower not very powerful and a few cob webs around the room which isn’t great. Also room we stayed in could do with an update

Breakfast was excellent and room was very comfortable.

Warm reception on arrival. John took our order for breakfast and took us to our room. The house was warm and inviting and the room was clean and comfortable. We took our family back for drinks later and were hosted by John and Julie. Lovely atmosphere. Plenty of drinks to choose from and reasonably priced too. Breakfast was really good. All freshly made by John and served by Julie. It was a shame we were only staying for one night.

Nothing at all.

Breakfast Excellent quality and quantity, plenty of choice, nice friendly, quick service . Very helpful, friendly staff

Good breakfasts

I could not sleep for traffic noise. Finally discovered thAt my window, hidden behind a net curtain, was slightly open. I had definitely not opened it.

Booked for two couples after reading the lovely reviews as we needed somewhere to stay whilst attending a funeral. Rooms are spotless with everything you need and breakfast was excellent. John and Julie went above and beyond to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Thank you for your kindness.
