Lovely edwardian hotel only 10 minutes from town,beach,restaurants. Boutique style large rooms decorated very nice. We had room 5 which was decorated in lime and brown,large leather bed,sofa and table with two chairs. The continental breakfast delivered to our room at 8.30 each morning was a treat,with lots of choice. We would definately recommend.

On the day of travel to Whitby I received a text message from the propiertors enquiring what time I would like to check in (two options were given), which I thought was a useful idea. Having arrived slightly earlier than intended, Ged, the owner, welcomed us into the accommodation and showed us up to our room for the night, which... More

This guest house is possibly the cleanest and most beautifully laid out I've ever stayed in. Our tasteful room had a wooden floor with rug, sleigh bed AND a view across Whitby of the Abbey. The continental breakfast was just the ticket, warm bread rolls and boiled egg as well as cereal, fruit and yogurt delivered to our room. Clean... More

After deciding to fight off the January blues with a quick trip to Whitby (one of our favourite places in the UK), we had a fab stay at Elford Guest House. Elford Guest house is ideally situated for getting about Whitby and it's surrounding areas such as Sandsend and Robin Hoods Bay. For a late booking we got a lovely... More

We went to Whitby with friends for a few days around New Year's Eve, and stayed in Elford Guest House. Everyone was really friendly, even when we asked for the wifi key at 11pm. The location was really handy, just a 5 minute walk to the waterside restaurants etc. The room was large and comfortable, and nicely decorated. The breakfasts... More

We stayed in Whitby for a couple of days to relax and recharge our batteries. The Elford Guest House did just that. It is not by the sea front but it is only 5 minutes walk away up a hill which was great for walking the fish and chips off. We stayed in the attic room which overlooked the Abbey.... More

We went to Whitby for a friends 50th birthday and found Elford House from Trip Advisor. It was easy to book, we paid 50% deposit on booking, the owners were in touch in advance about check in times and to let us know about parking - there is 1 parking spot per room. On arrival we were shown to our... More

We had a wonderful short break in Whitby and stayed at this fantastic guest house. The room was a good size and seemed to have been very recently refurbished. It had a lovely view of the abbey. The location was within a ten minute walk from the harbour. The breakfast idea was great; a basket of food including cereals, fruit,... More
