8/10 Good
"It was ok but not luxurious. I would not expect a luxury hotel to provide very basic and cheap toilet paper in your bathroom. Or a full breakfast to include streaky bacon and no baked beans. The Beach House felt like a leisure centre. Enjoyable stay but not value for money."

"The whole venue is lovely and staff were very helpful and pleasant The decor and ambience was very tastefully designed The room price was room only with an extra £35 for breakfast per couple- I thought this was on the pricey side to be honest The shower over the bath needs handles as it was very difficult to get in and out."

Crown Spa Hotel Scarborough by Compass Hospitality

10/10 Excellent
"A once grand hotel now showing it's age, the exterior could do with renovating as it looks untidy on first impression. Walk in and the interior is so much better, the staff are excellent and our room was very good. This is good hotel to stay at, the only drawback being the walk up and down the hill to and from Scarborough itself, but we were very satisfied with our stay"
