On the whole this hotel was ok for what we paid but considering i had saved 218 (apparently) it would of been a different story. The hotel is in a bad need of refurbishment. The lift had broken which didnt bother us as we were only 2 flights of stairs up but may of been a problem with others. The... More

Unfortnatly my experience at the Clifton was not very pleasent... First of all we were greeted by a very snotty and unwelcoming gentleman who spoke to us like we were pests! I found him rather rude and arrogant and like we were not posh enough to be in his hotel. As we took the 7 flights of stairs to our... More

With each review I write, I try to be fair, pointing out (from my opinion) the good and the bad. Unfortunately my stay in this hotel was not one of my better experiences. It has to be said that we obtained this room via a voucher offer so we did not pay the full price, if I had of done... More

We booked this hotel for a family get together. We stayed here about 20years ago when it was fresh and vibrant. Unfortunately it is now looking very sad and is in desperate need of a face lift. We had to park on the road in the disc zone due to the car park being full and were charged £6 as... More

I have been visiting the Clifton and other hotels in scarborough for many years, but the Clifton holds an enjoyable part of my life, old it may be in need of a face lift possibly but the traditional values of politness and service are the best around, the pace of life slows nothing is too much trouble for the staff...

We booked into this hotel as part of a weekend dance break holiday in early January 2012. The staff were most helpful and good humoured. The ballroom an ideal size for our numbers. Bedrooms can vary enormously, both in size and comfort. The food was very good, with excellent choices from the dinner menu. One disappointment was that the in-room... More

We went away for the first time ever at Christmas to the Clifton hotel at Scarborough. We were 5 pensioners. Had a great time. Recommend paying extra for sea view rooms as these really are lovely. Other rooms may not be quite as good i heard. Also prebook car parking. there is a charge but it is well worth it.... More

We booked in to the Clifton for New Year for Bed and Breakfast. When booking the hotel we looked at booking directly with the hotel, but it was £110 for one night. I got it on another website for £49, so make sure you look around. Stopped here previously and it was dated, but noticed they had decorated in the... More
