We often visit this hotel and think it is a very slick operation. The decor is pleasant, though not plush. The managers are always polite and efficient as are there staff. They seem to work hard to please and offer excellent deals. The food is good and great value, the best meal for us is Sunday lunch, a hearty well... More

Despite excellent accommodation and food, the owners of the Downe Arms should decide if they really do want to accept weekend guests or cater only for weddings! We had the misfortune to spend a weekend at the Downe Arms in February which unfortuntately clashed with a wedding there on the same weekend. We were made to feel very unwelcome from... More

Such a shame that the Owner/Manageress knows nothing about customer service. We ordered 7 meals, 3 of which were for Murgh Makhani Chicken Curry. When the dishes came, we were HORRIFIED to discover that the curry wasn't chicken, it was prawns. This may not be an issue for most people, however my sister has an ALLERGY to prawns & shellfish!!! ... More

A very pleasant old stone inn a short distance outside Scarborough, with friendly staff and characterful rooms. However on a cold April evening the hotel appears to have turned off the heating and hot water before 10.30pm, as neither were available in our (superior) room at that time, although they were restored in the morning, No manager was available the...

We stayed here for 2 nights in March 2011 for a weekend getaway. The room was quite small, but ok, it had all you would need really. The decoration wasn't great, it appeared like it had had a bit of recent work done but the standard was average. The 1st night there was a band in the bar, which was... More

We stayed here for a break in January on the DBB deal. Although out of season The Downe Arms staff made every effort to make our stay special with a full dining experience and four poster room. It was a well needed break, indulgent and we enjoyed this picturesque little spot.

I stayed on a Sunday night on a business trip so that I could start bright and early on the Monday morning. The room was nice with all the facilities required and it was quite. Breakfast was not until 8.30am but they arranged for me to have one earlier. Plenty of room on the car park.

I would just like to say we had our daughters chrisening here and the service was first class. The food was excellent and so were the staff Great venue Highly Recommended
