Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Number 7 Guest House enjoys a superb location, within a short walk of the Whale Bones and Captain Cook's statue, offering sea and Abbey views. Guests frequently compliment the delicious and freshly cooked breakfast, with choices like full English, smashed avo, or eggs Benedict. Rooms are comfortable and well-equipped with ample tea and coffee, though some guests have found Room 5 to be a bit small. Free parking permits are a definite plus, making it easy to explore Whitby.

Really good Stay with Great Hosts

great hostparking permitdelicious produceeasy access
Richard and Joanne are great hosts. Breakfast had fresh, well-presented, hot, and delicious produce. The location is very good, with access to nearby attractions. They provided a local authority parking permit that was very useful.
Room 5 felt small. The bathroom looked designed for a shorter person.

Really good Stay, A Return Visit is a Must

easy check-insuper clean roomcomfortable bedoutdated measures
Check-in was easy. I received details from the owner prior to arrival. The room was super clean and comfortable. I also slept well because the bed was comfortable, and the area is quiet.
Breakfast times were allocated with instructions not to arrive early. Breakfast selection happened by 5pm the previous day. These measures seemed outdated considering current conditions.
Dining
10/10
The breakfast room offered a timed sitting. The breakfast order was taken the night before, so it was prepared upon arrival at breakfast. This system seemed efficient. Joanne cooked the breakfast freshly, using local produce, and she cooked it to perfection.
Rooms

I stayed in room 3. It featured a comfortable large double bed and a television. An ample supply of snacks and tea and coffee was also present. Wardrobe and cupboard space were plentiful, and top-quality soaps and shampoo were provided in the great shower.

I received a parking permit for the surrounding area upon arrival. This was quite useful. Spaces were at a premium. The hotel's location offered very easy access to the surrounding area.

adequate stay with some drawbacks

easy accesssmall roomshower height
the location was acceptable because it provided easy access to the local area.
Room size was smaller than expected. the shower cubicle height was also an issue. I bumped my head a few times because i am taller than the shower height. it resulted in a minor head wound. it's not something i would want to repeat.
