The Kenton Hotel

Warm welcome on check in, room was clean and fresh on arrival. Parking was tight but okay, only enough for 6 cars

Very friendly and helpful hosts and both of the downstairs rooms and the bedroom were very beautifully decorated.

Amy the host was lovely, very accommodating and friendly. However, there’s no way you can call this a 4* upmarket guest house. I appreciate these buildings are very old and require a lot of funding to run and maintain. However, flaking paint everywhere inside and out, dust webs hanging from all light fittings, mould and mildew and limescale deposits in the shower and bathroom could be eliminated with a little effort. I booked a family room consisting of a double bed and a bunk bed. My son (9Y) wouldn’t sleep on the top bunk as the bed wobbled badly when he was trying to climb the ladder. I checked it out and found the floorboard under the leg closest to the door had collapsed quite significantly. The carpet and under the bed were clean. The wallpaper was lovely, but the room was cluttered with too many trinkets, pictures, mismatched themes. There were a couple of chairs in the room which were nice leather ones, but one covered in a rather dingy ill fitting chair cover. Another wooden chair covered in a floral chair cover. On a hygiene level these together with the sequin throw on the bed would be better off without. Aesthetically they were not pleasing to the eye. There was a wonderfully stylish resin table in the corner of the room. No plug sockets near any of the bedside tables. Only 1 on an extension lead and another old type next to the bathroom which doesn’t have a safety on off switch. A small fridge was appreciated however didn’t work. The bar was well stocked.

Had a lovely overnight stay. Lady who runs it was lovely and very hardworking. Room was clean and comfortable, with extras like a bottle of water, small fridge. En-suite was clean and good shower. Was lovely to have parking on site and free tea and coffee at any time was a nice touch. We had breakfast too, which was lovely and good value for money. I would definitely recommend and would absolutely stay there again if I visit the open air theatre in future.

Nice, flexable, clean & friendly. Shortage of shampoo & body wash (sachets very difficult to open).

Lovely place to stay perfect location over looking the beautiful north bay all beaches in walking distance, Room was just right for me small & quiet as dnt like big rooms when travelling alone, was clean and so peacefully quiet in the hotel, hosts were very polite & welcoming, and the veiw over the bay is stunning, can only say 1 thing didnt like was the bed as was too hard & uncomfortable apart from that everything was nice and enjoyed my stay thr, i would definately recomend to any1 looking for a stay in scarborough, i will definately go back to this hotel in the near future

Lovely place to stay very clean and close to the beach. Excellent food and well priced would recommend full English and American pancakes cooked perfect. Staff were very friendly and helpful we will definitely be staying again.

Really friendly and attentive. The drinks at the bar were great value. Would stay again that's for sure.

Really enjoyed my stay here. The castle, town centre, beach and amenities are all close by. The hosts were amazing and couldn't do enough for me. I will be coming back, thank you so much guys.
