    No swimming pool and a little dated

    I came to Scarborough to visit family, I don’t like to impose so usually book a hotel. Though I enjoyed my stay, I was disappointed the swimming pool was no longer available, also the hotel is a bit dated and could do with an upgrade. The team at the hotel were excellent and couldn’t do enough for guests.

    Need renovation. Old and dated facilities. Although the building seems to be an ancient and has historical value a little bit of maintenance would be nice.

    The entertainment was horrendous. They need some better singers. The dancing and costumes were inappropriate for children. It's like something you would see at tiger tiger.

    Arrived on the Friday and the room we was given wasn't really upto standard. So they upgraded us to a newly decorated family room which was much better. Breakfast evening meal was for fantastic for the money. Staff really pleasant.

    Place is like a building site, smell of mould haunting the halls, unclean in many places. Extortionate prices at the bar.

    Staff were nice, phenomenal building with potential to be so much better.

    There was still rubbish left in the bins that cleaners didn't take out. The sofa in the room had some minor damage to it.

    Close to the clift lifts down to the seafront. Near to the town centre and bus stops as well. Good selection for breakfast. Didn't have evening meal, so can't comment on that. Not sure if there was any entertainment, as we went out for the evening. Didn't see any advertised though.
