Loved by The Raincliffe Hotel guests
"He was also happy that the hotel wasn't too far from the front and his favourite arcade.."
"There is even a free standing air conditioning unit in the room, which may I was needed as the weather was very warm this week."
"The lounge is cosy with a pool table for entertainment."
Victorian-era charm
The Raincliffe Hotel is a restored 1880s Victorian townhouse on Valley Road, 750 meters from Scarborough's South Bay. Original features include cornicing, a marble fireplace, wooden floors, and a central spiral staircase. The 14 rooms are individually decorated, with en-suite bathrooms, tea/coffee makers, flat-screen TVs, and free Wi-Fi. Options include single, double, twin, family, and four-poster rooms, with four king-size superior rooms for extra space.
Breakfast and bar
Guests can choose from cooked-to-order breakfasts, including Full English, vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options, served from 8:00 to 9:00. The hotel bar opens midday until 22:00, offering ales, wines, spirits, and snacks. The outdoor terrace is available for evening drinks.
Leisure and location
The hotel is a 10-minute walk from Scarborough's beach, fairgrounds, and South Cliff Italian Gardens. Nearby attractions include the historic Scarborough Castle and the North York Moors National Park. Free parking is available nearby for up to three hours, with overnight parking at no cost.
Family-friendly policies
Children aged 3 and over are welcome. The hotel has 16 steps at the entrance and internal staircases to rooms on the first and second floors, making it unsuitable for less mobile guests. Pets are not allowed.
Sustainability efforts
The hotel reduces single-use plastics, recycles, and uses low-energy lighting and showers. Guests are encouraged to limit laundry requests and switch off unused electronics. Check-in includes selecting breakfast options to minimize food waste.
“This Scarborough hotel impresses with its dedication to hospitality, particularly the welcoming owners and exceptional breakfast. I especially appreciate the on-site bar with its pool table and Moretti on tap, which adds a social element often missing in smaller hotels. Its location provides easy access to the town's shops and attractions, rounding out a well-located and hosted stay.”
