"Nice cozy room at walking distance from anything in Whitby and just a few minutes from the beach."

9.0

Possibly the one of the comfiest beds we have ever slept in. Nice view from the room and the location was simply perfect - not straight up in the center but super close to the beach and to anything in Whitby.

Third floor with no elevator and a relatively tight staircase is not ideal but not that big of a problem either. I know it is not something specific of this location, but having one faucet for boiling hot water and one for icy cold water is not really the best.

"Whalebone Arch Guest House"

10.0

Great Communication from Emma & Dave. Emailed us the day before our stay to ask what time we be arriving so our room was prepared for us. And what a lovely surprise when we arrived. Room 7 was fantastic with a large bay window. We were left a parking permit and parked right outside the property. The Bathroom was very spacious with a lovely power shower. The Room was spotlessly clean. We have stayed in many guest houses in Whitby and we both agreed this was one of the best. Well done Emma & Dave

Great location, was a 16 minute walk into the town centre (taxi's are available) The room was immaculate, could not complain - Milk and bottled water provided in the fridge was a nice touch. The bed was very comfortable. The instructions to access the room were clear and easy to follow.

"Lovely place to stay "

10.0

The Whalebone Arch was clean and comfortable, with seaviews from some rooms ,the only contact with the owners was by text, it was informative and the instructions easy to follow.Thank you Emma . The hotel is situated just outside of Whitby town centre , its walkable, but there are buses if needed, or taxis which are approximately £5 each way . We enjoyed our stay there . Car parking is a good plus too
