Provider-sourced guest reviews.
Breakfast was perfect every day rooms comfy and constantly topped up with coffees and milk. good location with lovely sea views from our rooms
Only thing I missed was having somewhere to sit at night would have been nice to be able to sit in the dining room to play cards etc as our single rooms were too small
Great location, lovely breakfast cooked to order. Glad we got one of the on site parking spots. Lovely to be able to sit in the room by the window and look at the sea view.
Suzanna is a very pleasant host, the sea view is also good and the breakfast excellent. The chance of a parking space is an added bonus.
Space is a bit limited, but as expected. The bathroom and shower cubicle are a bit cramped, the wash hand basin is also tiny, inevitably given the room size.
Friendly host.Clean and comfortable room with amazing sea view.Exceptional cooked breakfast and good continental choice if you prefer.
Long way up to the top floor but worth it for the stunning sea views.
Great location and value

Fantastic sea view
Breakfast under priced . Pay £12+ in a cafe 4 same
La chambre pour une personne vue mer était parfaite. Tout était parfaitement propre. De petites intentions étaient à disposition. Le petit déjeuner était très bon!
Quand la télé de la chambre voisine est allumée, on entend le son de cette dernière.
Superb tasty breakfast. Excellent friendly owners and staff. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

Breakfast was good, we booked for its location for the open air theatre and it had a sea view. The room furniture was of very good quality.
Our was a little small ,but had a fridge we didn't expect t
Absolutly recommend this lovely hotel. Szuzanna and Kevin are exeptional hosts. Food was beautiful with plenty of choices.
Everything from being welcomed,rooms,food and friendliness
Nicely kept room with sea view. Hearty English breakfast with other alternatives to choice.
If you like shopping then it's a bit of a walk but on the other hand It overlooks the bay so if you like walking it's ideal. Very accommodating and friendly propriator. No negatives - all positives.
Staff were extremely helpful and very friendly. Room was perfect and the Seaview was amazing of Scarborough castle just to the right. The full English breakfast was very nice too would definitely recommend this place to anyone and free parking 😀

The breakfasts were lovely and freshly cooked. The owner_/manager and Simon( who makes the best scrambled eggs) were really friendly and helpful.
The bedroom was at the top of the stairs,high up. It was very small, sea view there but small window that couldn't be seen from the bed. Very suitable for 1 fit person. Bathroom clean but dated. No contact from the owner so unsure of how we get in? Keypad. Would choose a bigger bedroom lower down.
Location was really good 10 15 walk to venue and the train station
Excellent location on sea front. Very clean & great value for money
Peaceful, relaxing, beautiful views, good breakfast, friendly staff, comfortable bed, warm, clean, accommodating
Lovely view over north bay Great location for the Open air arena Great breakfast

Smashimg place to stay great location
Smashing breakfast
The location was perfect, the hostess was lovely, and breakfast was good quality, plentiful, tasty and well cooked.
There were a lot of steps up to my room but the view was worth it.
Location bellissima personale gentile e disponibile, camera perfetta e una fantastica colazione
Room was spotlessly clean,and the amazing views across the north bay.staff lovely and friendly.
Only a minor thing there was no usb charging point to charge devices.
Great location, hosts are amazing. Been before and will be going again, only place we stay in Scarborough.

Best cooked breakfast I've had in years. Great location. The host was very helpful. Great view.
Very clean , quiet , so amazing view , parking . Very beautiful .
Nothing . All is great.
This was a very pleasant, secure and welcoming place to stay. The owner went out of her way to make me welcome and comfortable. Thank you.
There was noise from adjacent rooms because the walls are thin, but this is only a problem if other guests are noisy. This only affected one of my nights' stay.
This was one of the best value stays I've ever had. Room,view,breakfast just brilliant. General store nearby too if you need anything. Room was big, cosy and shower so easy to use. The £7.50 breakfast was amazing value for money, the dining room was so busy.
Only the thick sea fog when I arrived!
The views, my room, the food, staff.

Fabulous welcome, friendly and efficient. Room and facilities are superb, lots of little extras such as the mini fridge, bottled water, luxury biscuits, coffee machine. Bed super clean and super comfy. Tower fan. Breakfast was exceptionally good. Perfectly placed for North Bay events. Our 2nd time staying at Leeway.

The staff were very friendly and helpful and the room was comfortable and homely. It had everything I needed, was clean and has a brilliant view. Would highly recommend for anyone visiting Scarborough.
The only minor issue was I struggled to connect to the WiFi.
The breakfast was very good my room was lovely and so was the view there was comical pictures all round the Hotel in every room and the dinning room aswell they made you smile
Nothing could have been better it was a lovely place to stay
Everything from the tidy rooms to the clean toilets to the amazing breakfast we well as the great views. The host was very kind and super nice we well.

The leeway was a great place to stay, the lady was very helpful, the room, I stayed in the single Seaview room was spotlessly clean, the fridge and fan was a great addition. The bed was very comfortable. And the views from my window were magnificent. I sat every morning watching the sun Rise . The train station is a short 15 min walk away. I didn't order the breakfast but wished I had. The leeway is situated in a quiet area of Scarborough on the north bay .but close to parks , the sealife centre and the little train . If your looking for a good place to stay look no further.
Nothing
Lovely B&B a nice surprise there was a fridge in the room also a very efficient fan both very welcome as a hot day . Superb breakfast at a very reasonable price also a walk in shower that suited as we are elderly .
There is a lot of stairs so you need to be reasonably fit you can request a low floor on booking . You are on the sea front but quite a walk to the theatre fun fair ect .
Lovely breakfast. I do prefer fried mushrooms. Plenty of real butter and marmalade. I chose not to have hash browns as I don't like them and still searching for a fried breakfast with fried bread. Lovely lady very friendly and helpful. Would stay again. Lovely sea view.
Not keen on microwaved mushrooms and maybe a cloudtopper as bed a little hard but thats just my preference
Very enjoyable stay
The accommodation was clean and well maintained. The room came with a small fridge complete with milk and bottled water. The coffee machine was an unexpected treat.
The room was lovely, clean and the bed was very comfortable. Zsuzsanna was very welcoming and the breakfast was amazing. Great location and the sea view was brilliant. Would definitely stay here again.
Clean room, lovely breakfast, the host was very nice.
Toilet is wedged in between the wall and the shower, very tight squeeze.

Everything was perfect
Great sea view, clean and pleasant room
Really nice B&B, Zuzanne clearly works so hard to provide a wonderful service to her guests - comfortable beds, high standard of cleanliness and a fabulous, tasty breakfast! Thank you.
No concerns, made one suggestion which Zuzanne took in board like the professional she very clearly is.
Our host was the kindest person who bent over backwards to make our stay memorable. Spotlessly clean. Bed was very comfortable. Close to restaurants. Fabulous view out of the window. Free parking was really good. The breakfast was outstanding. Thank you so much 😀

Friendly welcome. Lovely sea view. Excellent breakfast.
Lots of stairs! 😉
Location was ideal for what we wanted
Parking difficult. However manageable and wasn’t an issue. Would have been no different where we stayed. Not a Leeway Issue!
Lovely hosts, cleaned and well located. Free parking.
location, friendly, great breakfast
Lovely cheerful owners. Bed comfortable, room clean, a lovely sea view. Good plentiful choice for breakfast.
The hotel was super clean and the room was really comfortable with a lovely view out to sea. Suzanna was very welcoming.
Location is fantatic. View from the room was amazing. Size of the room wasn't massive but more than enough for the budget room. Parking was easy, we turned up later so there wasn't space in the carpark but on road parking right outside with a visitors permit available if needed.
Only downside was the shower could've been slightly more powerful. Water temperature was great though.
Spotless room with lovely view of the sea and the castle. Very nice breakfast. Owner was very helpful with queries around parking.
Nothing - I'd definitely stay here again.
The welcome from Zsusanna The view of the sea from our room Cleanliness of the property Comfy bed Marvellous provisions in the room Absolutely superb breakfast cooked to order.

Another enjoyable stay at The Leeway. Clean and tidy room , great location , gorgeous breakfast in the morning and a warm and friendly welcome from suzanna the landlady. Nothing too much trouble and great value for money.
All good. Goes above and beyond to make your stay enjoyable.
