Nice spa luxury hotel

The pool was a great touch to our holiday, but the jacuzzi spa pool was too enclosed & had a really strong smell of chlorine which stung peoples eyes! The breakfast was expensive for what we got & a little cold, but we did go a little late!

Although a little dated the rooms were very spacious and well kept. The food was very good and internet access also good. Parking was awkward maybe due to the season. The Spa facilities were also very good.

The Crown Hotel Scarborough - Superior Twin Room

This was easily one of the most disappointing hotel stays I’ve ever experienced — a far cry from the 4* experience advertised. The hotel is outdated and clearly hasn’t been renovated in years. The online photos are incredibly misleading, showing fresh, modern rooms that look nothing like what we were given. Our “superior” twin room looked tired and worn. It had food remnants by the bed, suggesting it hadn’t been properly cleaned, and it appeared someone had been sitting on the bed when we arrived. The room had been set up as a double despite us booking a twin — we had to request housekeeping to separate the beds after check-in. The bathroom was just as poor: the shower controls were literally hanging off the wall, exposing internal piping, which felt unsafe and unkempt. We also visited the on-site spa, which was advertised as a “serenity retreat.” In reality, it felt more like a dated community leisure centre. The pool was cold, the hot tub barely warm, the steam room wasn’t steaming, and the sauna didn’t reach a proper temperature. Treatments were disappointing too. Breakfast the next morning was frankly appalling. The hot food was rubbery & the “fresh” fruit clearly tinned. We were originally going to dine in the hotel the night before — thank goodness we didn’t. Even our taxi driver warned us not to eat there and confirmed the hotel has significantly declined since COVID. Definitely wouldn’t stay here again or recommend. It might have been #1 before but not now!

Like so many hotels in British resorts, it suffers from having been there a long time. However the staff and location more than make up for that. From queries before check in and throughout our stay all the staff, whatever position they held, were exceptional.Beds were super comfortable. Always lot water. Food was fine. So easy to get down to the spa or into town

We have stayed here a few years ago, so booked a return visit with no doubts. However, when checking in there was no record of us paying for breakfast, so had to prove what I booked our room with breakfast included. The spa, was ok, but seems to have lost some of its appeal. ( conversation in sauna between 2 local members discussing manufacturing drugs etc) Bar service was very slow and understaffed, we returned from an event which many other guests had been. ,but only 1 guy on the bar . The breakfast experience was a big disappointment. No fresh coffee, only a machine. The breakfast buffet arrived from kitchen on a trolley, but no food was covered. We paid over £200 for our room and feel very let down, I will not return .

A tired hotel

Rooms available but we were not allowed access till 3 which was difficult because we had travelled a long journey and had to change to meet friends for lunch. Breakfast was not 4 star. Tinned fruit and plastic pots of jam are way below standard. Room was much too hot even with windows open. Choice of beer in bar poor

The hotel is in a perfect location and we managed to get parking close by. Parking was £2.50 for 2 days so considered that a good deal. The hotel is a little tired but comfortable and the pool was lovely. The ice room was amazing but a little disappointed the sauna was closed on the day we went.
