Summer 2022 Family Stay

We did have a very nice stay and the accommodation was on the whole, great. If I had to point out a few slight complaints, the pillows on the bed with the plastic covers under the pillow case where annoying and the plastic bags on the towels were not very eco-friendly. Also the disabled lift was permanently out of order(Based on the sign in the lift). These are small things and overall we enjoyed our stay and would stay again.

Small room

The room was tiny, had to close the bathroom door to access the shower and could barely walk around the bed. The room I had was clean and tidy but nowhere big enough for two people. For one person it was ok.

I probably did not do enough research as to how Discovery hotels work The Virtual customer service once I got through was polite and helpful but it took 40 minutes to get through. I was asking for a blanket as duvet was very thin. The heating was nt very efficient and in December more detail should be given Housekeeping - if you could find any - very nice and helpful Would book again in summer

Terrible never use them again keep well away

I will never use this hotel company again changed my hotel from silver Street the day before we was due to go even though it was booked 6 months in advance to seabreeze what a damp and unclean dump how can a company just change your booking to a place like that it even looks not appealing from the outside and the reviews for Seabreaze says it all we just found a guest house around the corner which was superb and stayed there instead.

The postcode given was not for the property we was staying at. No reception and poor signage in property. Dirty looking out front and dark inside. Room small and very basic poor ventalition and not equipped for elderly people. Couldn't upgrade room but couldn't. No parking at all. Communication unclear by staff and owner. More like a prison cell people complaining about the hotel. One young girl was only person that was helpful and polite. Would not recommend this hotel to anyone. But Whitby very beautiful and sea nice.

Website for property did not say room was on 3rd floor. Wife disabled and struggled with location as no lift, also omitted from website. Unclear room was room only, was expecting B&B, Breakfast facilities would have been a 5 minute walk away in another property. Room windows would not stay open, not airconditioned and no fan provided. Website said no kitchen facilities so did not bring own food, but when arrived induction hob pans, kettle and toaster provided. Floor in bathroom listing not fitted correctly and shower draining too slow for shower output so nearly floods the bathroom when shower is on. stains on the towels provided. bedding washed but not ironed bed sheet badly creased.

Awful, won’t return and would not recommend

Upon arrival we had a nightmare when we found no reception of anybody to talk to, phoned the number provided on front door a few times before getting through to finally soaking to somebody, to then be told I should have received an email with where my room is and the door codes, I didn’t receive any emails, the lovely lady on the phone the advices she will resend the email so I waited 15-30 mins and still nothing, so I phoned back up and was told the room address and door codes to get inside. This is where it went downhill, the room itself has the loudest floorboards I’ve even steps on and the bed is absolutely ridiculous, had to be a small double at most, whenever you move the slightest bit the whole bed creaks like a hurricane is going off. Then the smell, the smell is by far the worst part about my experience so far, there must be some drainage issue nearby or something as the stench in the room is just unforgiving. Me and my pregnant partner had to actually leave the room and go for a 30 minute walk just to be away from the smell, maybe this is a nearby drainage issue and no fault of the hotels but it’s ruined my stay.

Lovely quirky place!

We stayed in a lovely little cottage that was 3 stories. It was lovely and quirky. Location was a tad tricky to find but no issue there is on street parking for some evening periods if you work it out. Would love to stay again Everything we needed and peaceful. x Recommend especially after some of the reviews I read.

Top Location,Discovery accommodation

Ok,a lot of hard work has gone into making this location clean,tidy,themed,and 10 minutes walk from everything,parking is a slight issue,but let discovery help you,get the parking pass,personally,i parked up for our 2 night stay and used public transport to travel anywhere,because,lose your spot at your peril! When we first arrived,there are 2 number 14's in Silver street,one is someone's house!,yup,walked in,got redirected,5 minutes later,found our accommodation,the doorcodes work with a little practise,the wifi didn't connect,never mind. There are some residents living just behind the property who get visited by the less fortunate possibly homeless people,they make a little noise,then move on once they have what they came for,i witnessed nothing,but you join the dots together,you can't pick your neighbours,but it tarnishes the area slightly,i shall mention it to discovery,because at 2.30 am,no thanks,but i must say,all things being even,we felt secure,the accommodation is lovely,the location is superb,Whitby is fantastic,I'd give Discovery 9.5 out of 10,they have an office 2 minutes away as well,should you need assistance,we figured out bits for ourselves which added to the fun.

Booking was easy and efficient

The room was lovely and clean. The bed sloped so that your feet were higher than your head. So had to sleep head at the foot end. A bit of a delay getting the text message to tell us our room number and entry code. There was a gentleman who was helpful. The system is good just needs to be more timely
