Roy, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The riviera is in the perfect location, 5 mins to the harbour, but nice and quiet.The hotel room was spotless , of a generous size with an amazing view overlooking the sea. The owners were very welcoming and the breakfast was faultless along with the service which was exceptional. It was our first time here, we will be back definitely, this should be a go to stop for anyone visiting Whitby, thank you.

Catherine, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Comfortable room just a shame there were so many stairs as we are both elderly and found them a little daunting. Breakfasts were delicious, especially the porridge! Furniture in bedroom rather old and dated but all in all a very nice guesthouse.

Yes
NORMAN, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

On the West Cliffs with a lovely view of the sea and the harbour from our third floor room (the stairs were tiring after a long day!). Breakfast was lovely with plenty of choice. For £3 the guest house can provide a parking card valid for four days in Whitby. We had no trouble parking in the street around the corner.
Barry, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great service from Riviera. I am especially appreciative of them accommodating my very late arrival and check in. The breakfast was also excellent - I highly recommend the smoked kipper if you want something new and different.
Ahmed, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Property was excellent! Great location, clean, 3 pounds for parking. My only drawback, 5th floor with no lift. Very slow wifi. Otherwise, very good!
David, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It would to have been given better bread with our breakfast. I know it is available in Whitby! Otherwise we loved our view from the top of the house and enjoyed the excitement of the regatta weekend … especially the fair as it came in to town. Lovely friendly people in Whitby.

Whitby with that sea view.

Fabulous sea front location. Friendly staff. Payable permit parking close by. No lift, so lots of stairs to take into consideration. Overall, good cleanliness, practical room space with all the standard goodies supplied. Excellent breakfast selection also included.

Superb location
Jan, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

A nice place to spend the night

Clean and friendly, a lot of stairs to access the rooms, but it is an option to have your bags carried up. Attic room had extremely low beam on one side of the double bed, which made room really not suitable for two adults staying in it. Lovely breakfast, with great views and easy access to the beach

3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A great customer service from the confirmation of the booking to leaving. All staff are friendly and helpful, the room was clean and spacious. I think it was the little touches such as Zed coming round at breakfast time checking in with everyone that they are ok.
Kay, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Perfect, cosy and wonderful

It was amazing, the service and the personal touch was perfect. Really enjoyed the breakfast it’s such a good idea ordering it the night before to save wasting food. All questions were answered straight away and in a friendly way. The room was clean and it had a great selection of tea and coffee with biscuits too. For my first time to Whitby, it was the best place to stay.
Ella, 2-night trip
