    There is nothing that we didn't like.

    The Buck in is a wonderful little place. Right in the heart of Whitby over looking the harbour. The staff were lovely, the rooms were clean and comfortable. There was a few power cuts during our stay, this was no fault of the hotel and the staff couldn't apologise enough. A few reviews stated that the car park was a nightmare, but unless you are driving an artic lorry there really isn't an issue.

    The room was very hot. Parking was tricky to find and a squeeze to get in but very welcome as parking is at a premium in Whitby.

    Location. Great for accessing everything. Clean and comfortable room. This a really lively pub. We loved it. Friendly, welcoming, good fun. Ideal for a couples weekend. Not families/young children. Things don’t quieten down until the pub closes at midnight.

    Just spent two nights at The Buck Inn. It is situated right on the harbour front with amazing views and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Just to say...I nearly didn't book it due to some reviews saying people were unfriendly. I can honestly say everyone we met was very friendly and could not have been more welcoming. Thank you!

    Better communication about the car park. The car park is at the back of the building, however, because of the windy nature of the streets, the road to the car park is nowhere near the place. It was free though.

    Location was incredible, three steps from the door and there was the harbour. Bed was comfortable and clean and the shower had fantastic water pressure. All in all, a fantastic little place.

    location doesnt have image of carpark, just postcode. (The free parking was why picked this stay here) but its very tricky to get into as its an s bend. so only suitable for small car,. so after having problems with access had to park elsewere. as its access ,at rear of busy public carpark. we felt could do with an extra pillow as only one each and bed mattress could do with an upgrade as the springs through it, so not a comfy bed.

    Easy location, lovely helpful staff , clean room peaceful at night. great views

    2 night stay. Told by staff we could not leave our bag (one small hold-all) as there was no space even though we asked after check out time when every room would be empty, had to lug bag about till check in at 3.00pm. Room was pretty small, take your own shower gel their freebie is the size of a lipstick and the toilet roll you’d expect to find in a construction site toilet.

    Location.

    If you wanted to sleep before midnight my room wasn’t suitable as it was directly over the bar that had karaoke at the weekend. After midnight it was quiet.

    Perfect location. My room had a fantastic view across the arbor. There was a free car park which was a bit tricky to get in. Staff were friendly and helpful. Bed was comfortable.

    Situated above a pub, so it can be a little bit loud before 10pm. But it wasn't an issue for us.

    Great location overlooking the harbour in Whitby. So easy to walk to many attractions (Whitby Abbey) and restaurants

    Nothing really, room was clean, shower hot and adequate. View from room perfect.

    Location was perfect. Car park easy to find and free as stated when booking. A little tight getting in and out, not the fault of the pub though.

    It was above a pub so obviously it was noisy until closing time, which we were aware would be the case
