We had a great overnight stay. Our room was spacious and comfortable, and very clean, with a fantastic view over the North Bay. It is in a very handy position for both bays and also Peasholm park or the Open Air Theatre. It’s only a short walk to the town centre and station. Handy parking outside and a very easy check in process. We will certainly book again next time we come to Scarborough. We saw a wonderful sunrise from the bedroom window and got some great pics😊

We loved it here, room had a gorgeous view and the family room wa spacious. Bunk bed was a bit creakky (but our kids were probably too big for them really.) Fab locations for the northbay side where there is lots to do. Breakfast was AMAZING!

I had only spent one night in this property on a one-day trip to Scarborough. I was disappointed that my single room was facing the street rather then the North Sea; my private bathroom was also separate from my room, which was a bit inconvenient - but it had an excellent beach view. I struggled a bit with door lock too. However I had a sink in my room, I had access to an electric kettle, cups, coffee/tea/bottled water and towels/soap (no toiletries though) and it was pleasantly quiet in the building. The room was quite spacious and comfortable, with more conveniences I had opportunity to use. I appreciated really hot radiator in the evening after a long walk battling chilly wind and intermittent rain. Check-in was quite smooth and communication was relevant. The area is attractive to walk about if weather permits, there is even a small cinema and a pub within short walking distance. It was fascinating to contemplate this seaside town only just waking up from a winter hibernation. Despite challenging weather, I had pleasant time, especially in the Scarborough castle and beach areas. Overall, I was quite satisfied with this property and I would recommend it for a short, no frills stay, even out of season.

Everything was amazing, the breakfast was beautiful and there wasnt a brand of tea and coffee not available. The lady in charge was so so kind, there was a mix up with our reservation (my fault) however she was so understanding and our stay went ahead. Plenty of outdorr seating area front and back, all clean and tidy. Inside was spotless, cosy and welcoming. Ill definitely be coming back, it was away from the hustle and bustle but a glorious view of the sea. 10/10.

The Kenton is right on the sea front (the back of the property with the customer car park on North Marine Road). Fantastic view from the rear, overlooking the coastline, waves crashing in, the headland and castle ruins off to the right. It was early evening and quite windy when I arrived. It’s easy to find, the signage stands out. There’s space for a few cars and parking is free to customers. On street parking around Scarborough is free only after 6pm. There’s a few steps up to the back door and the front door is on street level on Queens Parade. The corridor, reception room with bar and dining room were all warm, welcoming and clean. Quite a homely feel to the place. I was welcomed by one of the staff who checked me in. She was really friendly, helpful and polite. I briefly went up to my room as I was on my way to the SJTheatre in town to see a show and didn’t want to be late. I had room no.1 on the 1st floor, it was small but just right for 1 person, high ceiling, nicely decorated, warm and cosy. With a double bed, washbasin, mini fridge, wall mounted TV and tea & coffee facilities. Towels were provided also. I had a private bathroom (toilet and shower) just round the corner from my room next to rooms 2 & 3. Clean & tidy. I didn’t get the opportunity to stay overnight as I had an offer of work the next day, so decided to drive back. I can’t comment on the bed or how peaceful it is on a Friday night, but I didn’t see any pubs or clubs in the immediate area. I’d book again.

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.

What can i say. Owner was away and had left a young lad in charge....the moment we walked in he was very friendly we went up to our room and within a few mins he came knocking on our door. He was polite enough but really was annoying and kept asking my daughter for her name on facebook. He pestered her the whole time we were there and sent her numerous messages saying he fancied her etc. We went out and when we got back we thought we were in a crack den. Drinking popping pills etc....didnt hide the fact at all. We went to our room and within minutes he was there knocking on door trying to get my daughter to go to his room for drinks. This kept happening all the time we were there and we even thought if going home that night so we didnt have to face him. The 2nd night the same again only at about 1 to 2 am there was shouting screaming crashing sounds fighting outside for a good 2 hrs and kept usvawake. Frankly i would like a refund as me my daughter and 13 yr old grandson were scared to stay and wevsneeked out at 4 in morning. We left keys on bar andcwas met with a man asllep on couch. Not good and very very disappointed

When we first arrived there was a mix up with the rooms, we had booked a sea-view room but were put in a room overlooking the road behind the hotel. After pointing this out to Amy, she quickly sorted it out for us to be in the correct room after the first night, which was fine, we were at a concert that night, so didn't spend much time in there anyway. We moved to the sea-view room the next day and had no problems after that. The room was clean, the shower worked perfectly, the bed was comfy and the view was perfect. Our bin was emptied every day and coffee, milk and biscuits topped up. There was no cooked breakfast, but you could get toast and hot drinks, and it was nice not to have to get up at a certain time to get down for breakfast. We found a little cafe a few minutes walk away and had breakfast there when we wanted to. All-in-all we enjoyed our stay at The Kenton and will definitely book there again next time we go to Scarborough, although next time we'll book direct with the hotel and not through a booking website to ensure we get the right room.

On the surface the property apoeared clean, but once you start looking the property was unclean. It is obvious that the owner does not live on site. Shane about the lack of breakfast. I don't think i woukd stay here again.
