Hotel The Helaina (Scarborough, United Kingdom)

You can expect the 5-star treatment as a guest at this hotel. It’s not uncommon for staff members to call you by name—and remember it for the duration of your stay. Elegant details and personal touches make this resort a special and memorable experience.

With all of the included amenities and a delicious breakfast spread, this guest house is an excellent value overall. Rooms are comfortable and feel luxurious, but rates are reasonably priced.

Luxury begins on the drive up to the resort, where you can take in the incredible views surrounding you. Many of the rooms have views of the sea as well. But perhaps what makes this hotel such a delight, is the attention paid to every detail of your stay.

If you want a sea view, be sure to request one when booking your reservation. Some rooms do now have any views, and at this guest house, it’s worth it to get one.

Some rooms receive better reception than others, but past guests have reported that the connection can be slow. If you experience issues with Wi-Fi, alert a staff member. They are quick to remedy issues and are very obliging.

Scuffs on the walls, water marks and other minor damages could use some attention. It shouldn’t spoil your stay, but you might notice areas where updates are needed.
