The Hotel was Modern and Very clean
Too Far out of Town centre
Availability of such a lovely room to book. Fantastic view across the sea. With binoculars assessable to use during our stay. Breakfast was superb, great choice in its sister hotel couple doors down was not a problem at all. Staff very friendly will certainly be back again.
Nothing at all.
Location was excellent, a 10 min walk along the cliff top into the town. Room was comfortable with lovely sea view. Staff were very good. Breakfast was good. It would have been better to have bacon or sausage sandwiches added to the menu as an option.
Location was good food very good
Could not fault it
The staff were very welcoming, especially Ryan who helped us out at check in. We had the family room which was clean and comfortable, and we really liked the layout having 2 separate bedrooms. Having extra bathrooms on the first floor was so handy too!
The location is excellent right along the cliff top
The location was great - not in the noisy part of town but fab sea views and walks nearby
We had the loft room which sadly wasn’t advertised as having a shower that was only functional when sitting in the bath due to the sloping roof! Two girls sharing this room with hair to wash … caused a little discomfort!
hi the room was nice and clean, the breakfast had ample choice great thanks
The hotel was lovely the hotel was very clean, food was superb and staff were very helpful and friendly

Breakfast good
Shower inconsistent
Fantastic breakfast and evening meal, location was fantastic just yards away from the coast, great sea view from bedroom.
Nothing
Great location good breakfast friendly helpful staff ,,, Dawn was brilliant catered to every need and always happy ! And great view from room staff!!
Bed was uncomfortable and squeaky room wasn’t cleaned or no fresh towels so room turned over would see need revamp on noisy furniture and stain carpet
Everything
Nothing
Staff great very helpful nothing a problem.
Beautiful view
Clean
The room was lovely. We had the double deluxe sea view room. Breakfast was amazing, and lots to choose from.
Lovely Seaview room in a good location. Breakfast food was good.
Breakfast room is too squashed. Breakfast time could be extended to create a better flow of people They could remove a few tables and give each bedroom a more specific time range so the whole occupancy isnt trying to have breakfast at the same time or at least serve some people in the lounge area to create some space in the breakfast room.
We had a wonderful stay at The Seacliffe. Everything was perfect from the moment we arrived. The room was clean, comfortable, and beautifully maintained, making it easy to relax after a day of exploring Whitby. The breakfast was excellent, with plenty of choice and delicious food. What really made our stay special was the friendly and welcoming staff, who were always helpful and made us feel at home. We truly enjoyed our stay and would happily recommend The Seacliffe to anyone visiting this beautiful city. We will definitely stay here again!
Fabulous breakfast
Nothing
Breakfast was a little too greasy
Twin room in roof space: Beautifully clean, beds very comfy, slept very well! Friendly and helpful staff. Good parking options. Amazing location, within walking distance to main attractions. Lovely sea views. You can hear the ocean if you sleep with a window open! Decor in the twin room was immaculately clean, modern, and bright with drawers, wardrobe space, and large mirror. There are plenty of plug sockets in the room, double sockets including USB for both beds.
Stayed in the twin room in the roof space. The bathroom was clean and tidy, but the shower is unsuitable for anyone over about 5.3 or with mobility issues due to the sloping ceiling above the bath (not the owers fault). It was difficult to stand fully to shower, but there is a small bath as an alternative.
Friendly and clean
Nice and clean and very quiet
All good and parking was great
Great location easy parking breakfast was fresh and super hot worth paying for the sea view ours was amazing from room 3
Nothing to complain about
The out side patio could do with a make over and.Make it more people friendly
Very nice friendly staff, comfortable rooms
Cricket pitch view
The sea view was great from our room on the second floor. Breakfast was very nice with a good selection and plenty toast, The staff were great and very helpful. Nice little bar area too. Quiet location with good parking.
The bathroom mirror light never worked so tricky when shaving and no grab rails in the shower when base got slippery with soap.
Nice & clean, good location and breakfast is very nice.
Lovely room, very clean, great breakfast, location was really good
Nothing
Very clean accommodation, breakfast very very nice, staff very helpful . We had a lovely sea view room with tea and coffee making facilities.
More storage for clothes, we stayed for 2 nights which was fine, any longer and it would have been a struggle.
Breakfast - good choice on cereals Staff - friendly : nice touch to be poured coffee at our table on our last morning, shame this wasn’t a daily nice touch.
We were put up in the sister hotel a few doors down. Still a great location but dead flies on the top of the bed as we walked in wasn’t the best start. Cob webs in the room cleaner had missed. Cooked breakfast. Scrambled egg needs less milk used in cooking. Bacon needed a little longer and the tomato was threatened by the grill. Sausages though - very very tasty!
Just perfect. Clean, friendly staff, excellent service, good food especially breakfast. Can’t fault it.
Nothing really, can’t think of anything I disliked
Bedroom was quite small but very clean and comfortable. It was a last minute booking so probably all bigger rooms were gone. Food was excellent.
I was surprised that our room wasn't cleaned everyday. Waste bin not emptied
Good location and free parking. Nice little bar area.
There didn't seem to be a hairdryer in the room.
Everything except the bed wasn’t very comfortable
The bed
Staff friendly and helpful clean the sea view breakfast was nice
The outdoor seating area was pretty scruffy broken chairs overflowing ashtray, the bar shut at 10pm
Perfect location. Staff are lovely and friendly. Good breakfast. Clean rooms.
N/a
Good choice
Bath /shower no shower screen , bath small difficulty getting in and out . Also standing up in the bath was difficult as roof sloping . Could have done with taps at the other end and a shower screen needed.
Breakfast was excellent staff very nice helpful
Room was comfortable and well-equipped but we were in the annexe 3 doors down (which we didn't know until the booking was confirmed and we had paid the deposit) overlooking the owner's scruffy back garden complete with laundry on the line which remained for the whole of our stay. Couldn't move the car because of parking issues. Breakfast was OK and the staff were friendly. More of a B and B than a hotel.
Parking. Owner's back garden.
Staff fabulous and room breakfast brilliant
Nothing
Everything , the room was lovely and clean. The staff were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble, the breakfast was delicious.
Staff were very friendly, accommodating and food was very high standard. Dawn was really helpful during our stay and I remembered her name as we share the same name! We booked on the weekend of the heatwave so our choice of room in the attic was not ideal due to temperatures. The views however are amazing up there! Everything was explained to us on arrival regarding times for breakfast etc and due to my specific diet this was catered for. We managed to park on the driveway which was ideal too.
May of been good to have a fan in the room or a sign on the reception desk to say if you require a fan please ask. Our arrival day was exceptionally hot. May of been ideal to have USB plugs in the walls for charging devices. More choices of milk needed for those intolerant to cows milk such as the usual oat milk etc. I did ask before hand and was offered Soya only so brought my own which was kindly kept in the fridge for my breakfast.
Whitby in general. Loved the hotel friendly staff, beautiful breakfast. Sea view from the bedroom. Fantastic week-end away
Hills and stepps.
Beautiful little b&b, well run . Clean and comfortable. Nice walking distant into town
The views, how peaceful it was, the room, and most of all the staff how hard they worked to make sure our stay was perfect thank you 😊
Very friendly staff, room was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was lovely, and staff went above and beyond to help with a car issue with tools and humour! Thanks so much, you saved us a hefty call-out fee! Great view of the seafront from the room and binoculars provided.
Very good nice produce well cooked, great view from our room
They had no alcohol free beers
Clean nice location

Very noisy during a couple of nights from room above squeaking floorboards.
Great location clean and cosy Great breakfast eith good choice and well cooked .Staff eere brilliant 👏
All was great
Our stay was excellent. The room was fresh , sheets were clean, the bed was comfortable and breakfast very tasty
My partner had scrambled eggs whi ch he felt wete dry but everything else was spot on
THE VIEW! It was great. The room was clean and the bed was like sleeping on a cloud 😍
I can honestly say I wasn’t disappointed with anything
Great location, very clean and staff extremely helpful and friendly
Nothing
Jane and her staff were lovely and exceptionally helpful. Superb location. Had everything we needed.
Nothing at all re the hotel, but very disappointed that the cliff lift is out of order and has not been repaired. Not acceptable at all for access to the beach.
The staff were lovely, friendly and could not do enough to assist. The cooked breakfast was very tasty and fresh.
Everything we needed catered for, comfortable and clean room
Brilliant breakfast
Too far from town
Room had a marvellous sea view, parking was simple, they gave me a parking permit in case the hotel car park was full, room was spot on and breakfast was great. Staff were really friendly and helpful too
Nothing
Location great. Room spacious with sea view.
Parking on the road in the busy season would be a problem.
Beautiful sea view
Bit far from town
Staff friendly and efficient. Room comfortable Good breakfast
No lift to upper floors
Lovely place,nice and clean,had everything we needed for our short stay. Would highly recommend.
The hills
Very warm welcome. Room very clean and modern although did request sitting but only I odd wooden chair although room was probably a bit small for 2 . Breakfast was lovely 😍 Good value for money !
2 Flights of stairs to climb ! We stayed for 4 nights but don't think anyone did any housekeeping in the room ie fresh towels or fresh cups although not requested.
Die Lage ist toll. Das Zimmer hübsch mit schöner Aussicht.
Man geht ja nicht wegen dem Frühstück in ein Hotel. Aber dermassen fantasielos für ein Hotel, das sich mit vier Sternen anpreist…, das kann man besser machen. Das Haus ist sehr ringhörig.
Excellent, cooked perfectly
Tiny little wardrobe nowhere near big enough for 2 people over 3 nights.
Breakfast had a good selection of cereals and cooked was fine. Possibly too much toast.
Not much
The hotel was spotless and the staff are brilliant and very helpful, nothing was too much trouble.
There wasnt anything
Clean and great breakfast
Reasonable breakfast Staff were very friendly We had a part refund for the other days we didn’t stop
Rooms were really noisy Me and my wife left the property after One night We had booked for 3 Possibly not revisit
The location was good
I didn't like the fact there was no shower and the bath was tiny and the room didn't feel welcoming
Super clean. Comfortable beds and great breakfast . Great staff
Nothing to say. everything was great.
Very relaxing weekend, staff very friendly, lovely place for a weekend break. Good breakfast, nice evening meal.
Nice place for the price lovely breakfast too plus got free parking with a 2 day pass
Very clean, quiet room. Tasty breakfast with good quality ingredients. Accomodating staff
The dining room and bedroom felt cramped. Parking is on-street which can be a challenge if the beach area is busy.
Nice clean room with sea views. Binoculars were a nice touch. Perfect for couples. Perfect for Goth weekend which was the reason for our stay. Parking was easy with scratchcard. I forgot to bring my parking disc but hotel parking scratch card exempt you from the 3 hour stay and allows 48 hours. Staff extremely helpful and friendly. Shower was amazing, bathroom very clean. Lots of space. Conveniently located. Better and more spacious than some 4 star hotels I've stayed in.
Breakfast was heavy on bread quantity and a bit low on protein items. A little less bread and a bit more on the bacon or salmon would make it a nicer portion but no complaints apart from that! The breakfast was included in room price. Food was very nice. Only flavoured yoghurts were available but no ordinary yoghurt.
All very excellent breakfast and staff
Very clean, a 10 minute walk but great views and a good location.
Parking is limited but we did manage to get a parking spot.
Brilliant location, lovely staff and really comfortable well equipped room
Lovely location, very friendly staff, very thoughtful and well equipped room including binoculars
We had top room, many stairs
location, easy to get around. mi
The room and entire premises were clean and tidy at all times
we had no problem parking on the street but at peak times I could see this as a problem, the hotels parking is very limited and this should be clarified on booking.coms entry
Lovey walks near the hotel and fab breakfast
Staff very helpful 👍
Couldn't lock the room when went out. But the staff again helpful kept a eye on the room until returned. Maintenance sorted it out in the morning.
Really clean friendly staff, good breakfast , recently decorated and modern..free parking
A bit of a walk from town just by whitby pavilion..but we were aware of location and enjoyed tgecwalk
Great value for money, lovely location
Needs blinds in the sea view bedrooms to block the sunlight first thing in the morning
The staff were friendly & the breakfast was really good. The room was clean with a really comfy bed. We will be booking again.
Friendly staff, easy check in, parking easy, clean room, good breakfast
Third floor and not easy to get suitcase up narrow stairs
The room was very clean and bright good value for money the breakfast was 1st class
Everything was spot on
A warm and friendly welcome on arrival. All the information we needed was explained to us before we asked. Excellent breakfast served with a smile.
Staff were friendly, and this place is well kept and clean. Breakfast was fresh, service prompt and professional. For a 4 star hotel when many other places are charging double or triple what these people are, this is absolutely worth the money. I would stay here again.
If I was going to be picky, I'd prefer softer lighting in the bedside lamp rather than the 'white' light.
Location was good and view from room was excellent
Breakfast could do with more cooked options eg omelettes, beans on toast
Clean good food friendly staff
Clean round way round the hotel good food friendly staff
