Our hostess Natalie was wonderful - her enthusiastic welcome and knowledge of Scarborough set the tone for a lovely stay. The bed was very comfortable and the room was beautiful - although a bit tight for room for getting around the end of the bed. The view from our room was spectacular. Thanks!

Tom, the owner, and Natalie, the staff, were exceptional hosts. Their warmth and hospitality had us feeling we had arrived at a dear relative's home. The view from our room was breathtaking and the bed was incredibly comfortable. A great breakfast started our morning, followed by a day of exploration (much of it suggested by Natalie) in and above the... More

Perfect weekend away! Lovely B&B with friendly staff, gorgeous breakfast and beautifully decorated rooms and accomodation. Couldn't fault it! Brilliant location overlooking the sea- will definately recommend to others and will come back again. Staff also recommending restaurants and places to go as well as chocolates on the best - nice touch!

It was our honeymoon. A lovely hotel with superb seaviews. Close to town with the beach on the doorstep. Friendly staff and yummy breakfast. Our room felt like home from home, very comfortable. Highly recommended.

Had high expectations of the Helaina after reading outstanding trip advisor reviews. However, do not book this if you are not good with stairs or dislike views of dismal run-down buildings. Firstly, the rooms are overly hot at night leading to an uncomfortable night's sleep. Secondly, we had not booked a sea-view but were not expecting to wake up to... More

Recently refurbished so it feels fresh and new. Friendly service. Overlooks the seafront and within walking distance to eateries and Scarborough castle. Excellent breakfast. My particular room was small but OK.

I agree with all the other reviewers. Somebody is really doing the right things here. The finish in the apartment was excellent (even came up to my incredibly fussy partner's standards). It was well heated, the beds were clean and very comfortable, and the whole place just oozed 'luxury finish'. The kitchen was well equipped, and the bathroom was beautiful... More

Stayed here for our 1st wedding anniversary. Decor was nice. Our room was small but very adequate. Bed was most comfortable we've ever stayed in. Couldnt fault 'The Helaina' in any way. Was made to feel very welcome by all staff and would def go back again.

We've just returned from yet another wonderful stay in the B&B! Lovely warm welcome on arrival, really swift check in and we were taken up to our room. We stayed in deluxe sea view, room 4 and it was lovely as always. Excellent breakfast in the morning! I love the guest lounge to relax in on an evening and read... More

Had just checked in to another hotel which we were very disappointed with when we came across this hotel. We were looking at the board outside when a very friendly lady asked us if we wanted to look around. We declined because we had already paid for the other hotel. However the next morning we had checked out of our... More
