Brilliant location, 1 minute walk to the sea front. Parking included with the cost of the room. Very nice decor everywhere, the wife said it lacked a full length mirror, which is the only criticism we have. Will definitely return.

The hotel is very close to the seaside and Scarborough castle. The room is super clean and the mattress is exceptionally comfortable.

We love everything except the noise coming from the street. We didn’t sleep well because of the music (we weren’t sure it was from a pub nearby or something else) and seagulls singing during the night.

Overall, we like the hotel.

This is a lovely clean hotel and round the corner from the foreshore..but there are steps going up to front door which not good for my knee..but if your fit I would say this is one of best hotels in Scarborough.

A great little place to stay. Right in the middle of where you want to be with free parking on the surrounding streets. Very friendly place and done out nicely whilst retaining the character of the property.
Very quiet with comfy beds. I even got an ice bucket for my milk! Adam is very helpful, putting a fan in the bedroom.
Will definitely be back.

The Palace Hill Hotel was excellent from start to finish. Adam, Tip & Baby Jasmine were excellent hosts.

Good location, street parking permit given on arrival for easy parking behind hotel.

Room was clean & fresh, cleaned everyday of our stay, fresh towels when required, coffee, tea & hot chocolate replenished daily, bottle of water refilled daily. Bed was comfortable, plenty of storage & hanger space. Bathroom was good with towel rail, toilet, basin, shower & cabinet. Shower was the best we have had when staying in any hotel, it was large, easy to use and good water flow.

The only one downfall was the thin walls and as we had a loud-talking couple in the room next door we could hear their conversations very early in the morning !!!!

One thing to note is that there are about a dozen steep steps to negotiate to the hotel door, so bear this in mind with suitcases.

Overall we had a fantastic stay at The Palace Hill Hotel and would definately book again if visiting Scarborough.

Highly recommend to anybody looking for somewhere to stay and the prices are very reasonable too 👍

The hotel is good and in a great location but people with mobility issues may find the access problematic due to steep stairs. Other than that, would fully recommend

Fault need addressing

A pleasant stay but over rated
Stayed in room 9 attic room

Pros
Free parking (but have to search for a space)
Decoration lovely

Cons
No chair in room to sit on
Very small shower/toilet room ( could barely turn around)
Very steep stairs
Needs music or something in dining room
No cereals/fruit/choice of juice
Eggs fried or scrambled( she only does fried or scrambled we were told when asked for poached)
Had to ask for anything extra ( host did not ask if we wanted any more tea or toast at all!)
Asked for extra toast was allowed 1 extra slice
Felt rushed he had to get tables ready for other slots( 9 ROOMS 6 TABLES, HAD TO PICK A TIME SLOT)
had no small side plate to butter toast on , had to butter on table and no choice of brown or white bread.
To get the owners attention you have to bang on 3 unmarked doors, we banged on all 3 to get attention, a bell or sign would help!
Wasnt introduced to other owner at all
Seagull noise is horrendous but not owners fault( ghey supply earbuds( but only if you ask for them)

Generally we found it an ok stay but found that everything had to be asked for instead of offered.
This was our 3rd stay in scarborough and this was bottom , would not reccomend or go again

Lovely characterful boutique hotel

Adam & Tip have invested lots of love into this stylish little hotel which was spotless throughout and beautifully decorated.
We were made to feel welcome from the moment we arrived.
For a “larger” couple a thicker mattress would have been appreciated but this did not mar our overall favourable impression.
Lovely cooked breakfast too!
