The Resolution Hotel is in central Whitby on the North York Moors National Park coastline. Durham Tees Valley Airport is 70 km away.

“This Edwardian hotel, a Grade II listed building with a history dating back to 1776, places guests within 400 meters of Whitby's beach and piers. The building's refurbishment respects tradition while incorporating modern touches, and select rooms offer direct views of Whitby Abbey. I especially appreciate the incorporation of a unique aquarium in the bar and restaurant, and the focus on locally sourced produce.”

The Resolution Hotel presents a fresh and modern ambiance, with some rooms offering lovely views of Whitby Abbey. Guests commonly enjoy the delicious breakfast, noting the wide array of options including cooked dishes, cereals, fresh fruit, and an assortment of toast toppings. Some guests have mentioned that the rooms can get quite warm, even with the windows open; however, the hotel's central location, close to shops, Whitby Museum, and the train station, often makes it a worthwhile choice.

Spacious Room and Great Breakfast

spacious room coffee machine generous bathroom
The room felt expansive with plenty of space. A coffee machine was a welcome addition. The bathroom also had generous dimensions and featured attractive decor.
The hotel did not communicate restaurant closures in advance, which caused inconvenience. I had to find alternative dining options elsewhere. The information would have been helpful for planning.
