Stayed here last weekend and would recomend it. Very clean rooms, decorated in a more tradional fashion. Very good breakfast with a lot of choice and unlimited tea/coffee/toast to go with a large full english plus cereals, fruit juice etc. A good location with the centre of Whitby being a short walk. Would stay again and recommend to others. more

I know Whitby is a very popular town to visit with all the Aussies due to its connection with Captain James Cook. The Arches was a great place to stay. Its just a short walk to the town centre and Dick and Ruth were more than helpful answering any tourist questions. Great breakfasts and the first place we stopped at... more

This is one of the best breaks we have had. The proprietors are so friendly but not intrusive, they give advice about local area, places to go etc, if needed. Nothing is too much trouble.
