Whitby hotels

Top tips for finding the perfect Whitby hotel

• If you visit Whitby and are a history and culture fan, consider staying close to the Whitby Abbey and the Captain Cook Memorial Museum. The Dolphin Hotel is only an 8-minute walk from Whitby Abbey and a 1-minute walk from the museum. The Black Horse Inn, alternatively, is located within walking distance of the abbey, museum and the Caedmon Memorial.
• For fans of fun attractions, the Dracula Experience, the Whitby Whale Watching or a cruise on the River Esk are good things to do on your vacation. The Pier Inn is a traditional pub with room accommodation, with less than 5 minutes’ walking distance to all attractions and the city centre. The slightly more upscale Angel Hotel offers river views and is equally close to all attractions.
• Whitby lies just next to the oceanfront and includes a scenic beach for strolling along and enjoying the breeze. The White House Inn is a chic 4-star hotel located right next to Whitby Beach and a 5-minute drive from the city centre. Alternatively, the Royal Hotel is equally close to the beach but only 10 minutes on foot from the city centre.
• If you are travelling with children, you may want to consider hotels like The Grove, which offers family rooms and it is only a 15-minute walk to the beach and a short walk into town. Another family-friendly location is the Bagdale Lodge, situated over 250 metres from the city centre. The hotel offers free parking and Wi-Fi, as well as breakfast.
• Try scrumptious local or international food in the city’s heart around Bridge Street. Foodies should consider staying in nearby hotels such as The White Horse & Griffin, which is a 3-star hotel not only located amidst a plethora of restaurants, but it also featuring its own restaurant on site with seafood and other local dishes. Another nearby hotel with an on-site seafood restaurant, which is a little more upscale, is The Marine on Marine Parade close to the centre.
