Stopped in on way back to my hotel. Ordered a pint of Lager. It was as flat as a pancake. I took it back to the bar and the landlady took one look at the glass and poured it into another. Put a head on it and said there you go.... 2nd one died a death instantly. Took 2 mouthfuls... More

Walked into the friendly public bar and asked if they had... More

We didn't stay in the hotel (we live nearby) but I'm leaving a review of the bar downstairs. We'd never eaten here before, and decided on the spur of the moment to have some food when we popped in for a drink, and we were glad that we did. I had fish (it's local haddock) and chips, and it really... More

We didn't stay at the hotel but will no doubt be doing so in the future. Wife and I travelled from Staffordshire to visit grandson and his children in Scarborough and pre booked via their web page for a meal in their restaurant/bar for Sunday lunch. The bar area was well patronised by locals and was clean, warm and inviting.... More

The Highlander Hotel in Scarborough has spacious rooms in the Victorian style (high ceilings), is tastefully decorated, clean and comfortable. We have stayed twice now and enjoyed our stay on both occasions, in fact it's one of our favourite hotels. The hosts are friendly and welcoming and willing to listen if you have any problems. In the morning you're provided... More

We attended a conference at the Spa Complex and stayed at the Highlander along with another couple, friends of ours. We were all made very welcome with really excellent rooms and large bathrooms to match. the staff were very helpful - no doubt following their Landlady's example. The beer is just about the best once could possibly expect from a... More

We spent 2 nights in this hotel and found it to be very good, the decor is a little dated but the size of the rooms and views combined with excellent service from all the staff in the hotel and the bar downstairs(serving great food, lunch and evening meals at resonable prices) you can forgive the decor. the clenliness of...
