“The Duke Of York has a special place, tucked right at the bottom of the Abbey steps in Whitby, and I was impressed by how thoroughly it had been refurbished. I noted the community feel fostered by the pub and live events, plus the spotless rooms and that amazing sea view, and I think it's a great pick, especially for families or anyone bringing a dog.”

Guests consistently praise the Duke Of York's amazing location and harbor views, especially from rooms facing the quayside or Room 7 on the first floor. The rooms are generally considered cosy, well-decorated, and clean, offering amenities like tea/coffee facilities and toiletries; plus, the breakfast, included in the price, is often described as plentiful and varied.

amazing stay!

warm roomfriendly staffawesome view
the room was warm, comfortable and clean! all the staff were friendly and helpful. i loved the view, and leaving the window open to hear the water lapping was so soothing, just awesome to wake up to. plus, i saw more of the area than ever before!
the whole building needs soundproofing! i could hear patrons arriving, leaving, and using the hand dryer in the toilets above the pub entrance.
