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.

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

No lift ,so being on the third floor climbing all the stairs was not for anyone with disabilities or with walking difficulties (As my partner had ) . Fire escape procedure was not what i would expected from a five storey building .

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.

Nice guesthouse with fantastic views on the doorstep,close to the beach and attractions,would use again although probably better not for those who struggle with walking.

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.

I was informed about being on the 4th floor in advance of my stay, which was not a problem.
However, the stairway is steep and has many doors to pass through.
The room itself is compromised for height by being in the eaves but not a problem for a solo traveller. Would be a different review if I had been offered this"luxury" double room as a couple

A reasonably priced guest house which is very convenient for the beach walk and the town centre. Very good choices at breakfast.
Parking is, maybe inevitably, a trial!

Excellent choice for a last minute visit to Whitby. Stunning views overlooking the sea and a perfect location for exploring everything Whitby has to offer. Super clean and modern room and lovely full English breakfast. Nothing at all to complain about. If you can mange the 199 steps you will be fine here 😁

Overall stay was amazing, expectations exceeded. Despite the many Guest Houses, Riviera far proclaims the rest! Highly recommend people consider staying here. Close range to the beach and harbour, your feet get plenty of exercise. 25,700 steps on our first day there.

Well looked after, the bedroom had a nice character, however the bathroom en suite has had some sort of a make over but not to the best standard.

Great location across from the beach with sea view. Near to the town. A very clean and comfortable stay. Owners were there if needed, but never intrusive. Staff friendly. We can recommend the Garden Room restaurant at Sneaton Castle and the Trenchers Fish restaurant in Whitby. Both served very good food.
