Stayed for a couple of days mid Jan.
Room was really clean and comfortable and modern.
Staff very friendly and helpful
A perfect base to explore and relax
Good breakfast in the morning
Yes- very clean and staff very friendly and helpful.
Could have done with a bit more cupboard space and bathroom could have done with a shelf.
Breakfast was good and immaculate tablecloths.
A lift would have been helpful as we were on the top floor.
Great location, room had a lovely view and staff were very welcoming and friendly. Nice comfortable bed, great breakfast. Maybe could do with a lick of paint but would definitely stay here again.
Really excellent stay at the Dolphin. Fantastic location in Whitby, friendly staff throughout my trip, a very pleasant breakfast; great value for money and would very much recommend!
Lovely place to stay harbour side excellent view clean room staff very friendly breakfast multiple choice very tasty nothing was to much trouble for the staff definitely visit again thank you all for a perfect holiday.
Perfect location. Traditional hotel. Breakfast included and cooked to order. Restaurant on site with good choice. Five minutes from train station. Have stayed previously and would return. Stayed in Room 6 - fab view.
We celebrated our wedding whilst staying here on our honeymoon it was so comfortable food was really nice good choice for breakfast and staff couldn't do enough would definitely recommend 😊
