Brilliant host and staff; they couldn't have been more helpful or friendly. I stayed here for two nights and would definitely stay here again when I return to Whitby. Great location – everything on the doorstep! The breakfast was amazing and set me up for a hard day's fossil hunting. I am a female travelling alone; I felt very safe here, and the staff were knowledgeable about the local area. Thank you for a wonderful getaway. 10/10 :)

John and Marie, and also our two pet dogs, spent 10 wonderful days at Arundel House. The room we stayed in was very spacious, with a TV, wifi, and an en suite, and tea, coffee, and biscuits were replenished every day. Had a lovely cooked breakfast of choice every morning, which was served by the wonderful staff and Scott, Rachel, and Olivia... we really enjoyed our stay. We both hope to see you all again soon.

The friendliest of welcomes, the cleanest of rooms, the most comfortable of beds with the fluffiest of pillows, the best service and the tastiest of breakfasts. Staying at Arundel House is a most pleasurable experience because of Scott, his family and everyone who works there. They do their very utmost to make you feel at home, and you are very well fed. The location is perfect: a short walk into town and its attractions, and Pannett Park with its gardens and museums is on the doorstep. There is more than adequate parking, and the bus stop is very close. It ticks all the boxes.
