Great location and views over Whitby harbour. Parking a bit hit and miss on street. Nice, quirky hotel. Very friendly, no shower became a bit tiresome after three nights and room could have done with more comfortable furniture. Also worth noting breakfast not included in Expedia rate.

Our stay at La Rosa

I had such an amazing stay at La Rosa Hotel in Whitby! From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly welcoming—honestly, all three of them were just amazing. They went out of their way to make sure everything was perfect and created such a warm atmosphere that it felt more like a home than a hotel or B&B. The hotel itself has such a cool, quirky vibe—it really captures the charm of Whitby’s seaside atmosphere. The breakfast was definitely a highlight—so tasty and filling, it set me up perfectly for the day ahead. Everything about the place feels thoughtful, from the comfy rooms to the fantastic hospitality. I can’t wait to go back and enjoy it all over again!

Not your typical hotel - don’t expect cable TV and a jacuzzi. This hotel is English eccentric and unique. A museum of curiosities, a superb location with Abbey and sea views - absolutely delightful.

A very quirky property in a quiet, walkable location. Amazing views of the beach and across to Whitby Abbey. Our room was basic and had no shower but was warm and comfortable. Lots of interesting antiques devote the property. We had a lovely afternoon tea looking at the view.
