We stayed in a double room with a private bathroom just across the corridor from our room. Lovely clean room and bathroom. Bath with sea view. Tea making facilities replenished each morning. Clean towels daily. Friendly atmosphere. Close to town centre and local attractions.

The hotel was clean and tidy with its own car park. A short walk from the beach and a few minutes walk from central Scarborough. The owner was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is an optional extra but was great value. Would definately stay again.

After arriving on a cold and very windy day, it was wonderful to be welcomed by Duane. The hotel has all the facilities needed for a weekend break and is situated with breathtaking views of North beach, close to the town centre and attractions. A definate return.

We were surprised how much storage there was for clothes as often in family rooms these are limited but there was large... More

The Kenton is a medium sized guest house in Scarborough. We are located on Scarboroughs North bay with a panoramic view of the bay. We have a car park which is very rare in Scarborough and can be accessed from Queens Parade. The Kenton is constantly being updated and is about to get its exterior re painted. The en suite rooms are very spacious with very modern showers which are also large and spacious. We are only 10 mins walk from the town centre which is close for easy access yet far enough away to enjoy the peace and quiet the north bay has to offer. ... more   less
