Warm and friendly welcome. Clean and tidy. We will be back.

Very pleasant stay. Mark was super friendly and helpful. The hotel is great for visiting Scarborough Open Air Theatre, only a short walk. Parking was also no problem right outside hotel with a scratch card provided by Mark

The hotel was very clean with a good communal area.Mark, the owner, is the nicest person you could ever meet.My room was good and most importantly the bed was very comfortable.I would definitely stay there again

Spacious clean comfortable room, couldn’t fault it.

Excellent location for the open air theatre. Attentive host, perfect for a weekend away. Will definitely book again

Nice, clean room. Only stayed one night, so I didn't make use of many facilities, but I did enjoy being able to make a cup of tea in the room and the free biscuits :) It was the perfect location for the concert at theScarborough Open Air Theatre. I would recommend to others.

At his hotel was lovely.Perfect location for North Beach and theatre.Mark, our host was very friendly and helpful.He went out of his way to accommodate us.The room was clean, cosy and quiet with a lovely view of the cricket ground. Breakfast was cheap and cheerful £1.50 for as much toast, cereal, fruit and tea and coffee as you wanted. The only useful addition to the room would be a fan as it was quite hot in the room.All in all a fabulous stay, would definitely recommend

The place is very clean, nice rooms and a very approachable man who welcomed us and showed us to our room, we only stayed 1 night to attend a concert so would stay here again as it was only 10 minutes walk to the venue.

Lovely B&B very central, very clean and great host. Would recommend

Clean room, lots of amities, great position

Very good

Good value no frills B&B in a central location. Handy for the town and both beaches.Comfortable bed, clean room. Helpful staff.Ideal for me.

Perfect night stay , cozy and lovely. Great host as well , can’t waIt to come again.

If I’m in Scarborough in the future we certainly use you again

Clean rooms. Friendly staff. Close to amenities. We throughly enjoyed our stay

We stayed here for two nights in a family room overlooking the Scarborough Cricket grounds. Clean room with on-suit toilet and shower.Not very modern decor and in need of some maintenance. No complimentary breakfast. Bit overpriced

Friendly quite will.be booking again

A nice little stay in pleasant accommodation. Perfect if you just want a bed to sleep in. Clean and tidy with a lovely view of the cricket ground. Great location. No complaints.

Had a lovely 2 night stay at Arran, enjoyed it so much we added an extra might while we were there. The host was very helpful and accommodating, room was basic but adequate with everything we needed. Would definitely go back if we go to Scarborough again. Thank you

Nice stay. Basic but does the job.Very pleasant host.Good value for money.

Good location everything within walking distance. Mark was very informative of were to go. Roombasic but comfortable with a lovely view of cricket ground when we checked in there was a match on. Very enjoyable.

The room was spacious and clean with a great view of the cricket ground. Mark the host was really helpful and friendly and he was on hand if we needed anything. We’ll definitely be staying here again.

Great welcome. Clean , comfortable room. Dedicated bathroom. Easy parking. Central to visit north and south Scarborough.Couldn’t have asked for better. And if you want cricket you can watch from the bathroom it’s that close. Will be staying there again.

Very clean and landlord very pleasant and helpful

Everything we needed for a weekend stay.Good location, basic room but very clean with view over cricket ground, friendly and thorough host, great value for money. Would definitely recommend and would stay here again.

Host was great warm and welcoming explained everything regarding bathroom fallacies, rooms were clean bathroom clean, cheep and cheerful,

We were very impressed with The Arran. extremely clean and the bedroom and bathroom were so very well equipped. we will definitely stay again if we plan another trip to Scarborough

This is a great hotel for going to a concert in Scarborough open air venue because it’s a 10 minutes walk and the owner is very friendly and welcoming I’ll be back

Nice pleasant hotel

Great hotel close to where we wanted to be for the UB40 concert. Also close to pubs . Clean and comfortable beds .

Clean room , no availability for breakfast,but near amenities,so pleased we had an ensuite bathroom as we saw there is a room with toilet down some steps

Lovely stay at Arron b an b no hassle friendly service and reasonably priced

OUR stay at the Arran B&B was fantastic the owner Mark is a fantastic person and most helpful in any way I would highly recommend is establishment the Arran B&B to anyone and I will be recommended is establishment to all my friends and we will definitely be staying there again thank you Mark once again have a nice day and keep safe Mark from stuart kirkham and family

Nice clean room perfect for what we wanted

Comfortable,bright airy sizeable rooms.lovely clean beds. I slept like a baby.Mark the manager couldn't do enough for you. Well situated, close to beach and town centre.I would definitely stay again.

Stayed one night at Arran hotel. Room was comfortable and clean. Mark at reception was very helping.

I had a nice stay in Arran, where I stayed for three nights while visiting and exploring North Yorkshire Moors. The manager of the hotel was extremely nice, friendly and very helpful, you ask and you have :-)) The room was clean and comfy enough for what I needed travelling on a budget. Perfect starting point to explore North Yorkshire Moors. The single bed seemed to be very small but it might be due to the fact that I'm used to a king size one. Shared bathroom was for my solely use, which was a bonus. The hotel is in a very short walking distance to the sea front. There is no car park so you have to park your car on the road. It's free for overnight parking from 5pm until 9am. It was very quiet during my stay, and there was no breakfast served due to the new regulations - Covid-19. Overall it's a very good place to stay for the price, and the location is a big bonus. The only down was a very weak WiFi in my room, but luckily I was able to use mobile data on my phone.

Was welcomed by the owner on arrival , was very friendly, showed us to our room , asked if everything was ok , explained all rules , said if we needed anything just ask ,,,,,, room was very clean, was plenty of tea, coffee, etc available, would highly recommended

We look for three things when booking a b and b.1 Location2 Cleanliness3 Price.This place ticked all the boxes for us.Yes it's a bit rough around the edges but the price we paid was well worth the money.The room was clean, the bed was comfortable and the shared bathroom and toilet facilities were clean too.Check in was swift and the lady who checked us in and cooked a lovely breakfast the next morning was friendly and happy to chat and offer advice etc.Would we come back? Without hesitation as it was perfect for what we needed.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Our room was neat and tidy. Breakfast was delicious and served by friendly staff. The Arran is situated in the perfect place and we were able to walk/ catch a bus everywhere. We will definitely stay at the Arran again.

Pleasant clean comfort breakfast good

The Arran is lovely and clean and the owners are friendly and professional. Our room was on the top floor which was quite the walk but the room was clean and comfy.The lack of an ensuite may put us off returning but only because we have a young child who struggled going up and downstairs when needing to use the bathroom but we definitely can't complain at our experience, Thankyou for having us.

Nice rest stop easy to find and check in fantastic food very clean nice people. 10 out of 10 will be back.

Had a lovely day/night in scarborough. Stayed at The Arran, and was a small, clean friendly run Guest House. The host give you a pass to park and leave you to it. Breakfast is good. Cereal, endless toast, tea and coffee and a full English. Recommend this Guest House and will stay again, as only a short walk to the centre of town

Great place to stay. Very clean,good price,good food. Nice staff. Recommended

all usual facilities clean comfortable very good position with convenience stores fish chip shop pub sea front & much more recommended

Nice hotel, good breakfast, use this hotel each time we visit Scarborough.

Was a short noticefor and arranwas happy toto put us up for one nightclean and tidy property a bit datedBreakfast was nice and in with our stay

Friendly staff, clean room and good working shower. Parking available on street. Great location for all things scarborough.

We had a lovely nights stay. Room very clean. The staff were very welcoming and we had a lovely breakfast.Will visit again.

The room on the top floor was basic, but it was also what I wanted for the night and it was very cheap. The breakfast was excellent and the service was good.The owner was very understanding when I told him I had a health problem and could not stay for the agreed second night. I would stay there again.

We really enjoyed our stay here. Was very pleasantly surprised with the room. The breakfast was really good. Staff were very helpful and even offered us more breakfast. Would definitely recommend.

The hotel was very clean and near the beach.Breakfast was enough and the staff was very friendly.Thank you everythink

Lovely place. Clean. Very good breakfast. Lovely owners.

Very enjoyable stay, cosy,clean,great breakfast.staff very pleasant and helpful.would gladly stay again. Thanks very much.RegardsGeoff and Margaret.

Stayed 4 nights in early September.Only met one staff member during my stay, Tracy, who welcomed me on arrival and issued my parking pass. Plenty of room to park on the road outside the premises.Room was a single and although quite small was adequate for my needs. Washing facilities were provided in the room and the shared toilet and shower were just outside in the corridor.Breakfast was prepared by Tracy and was ready straight away, no waiting. Plenty of cereal, juice, tea or coffee and a full English.Didn't spend much time on the premises as I was out every day, however during the evening the place was nice and quiet and I slept very well.In my opinion, Arran could do with a bit of modernising here and there, but for the price I paid I can't complain, after all it's your basic seaside B+B, not the Savoy.

The staff are always welcoming

enjoyed our stay room was clean and tidy.food was good the people were very nice

Having stayed the first part of the week at a differant b and b and then deciding to stay a couple more days, we booked here.The welcome was very very differant to the first it was more like staying with family.The rooms are clean and functional and the cooked breakfat topped it off.I would def go back just because we felt welcomed not a hinderance as was our finding in the previous hotel.Family run and relaxed atmosphere a pleasure to deal with!😊

Clean, dry and tidy. Good bed

We found the Arran to be comfortable, clean and ideally situated. The breakfast was good and the staff were helpful. Would stay again.

Thanks a lot for your very friendly service. Next time, when we are in Scarborough, we would linke to stay in your hotel again.Best regardsElisabeth and Peter

Spent one night here. Had ensuite room ( only one ) and it was fine. Warm welcome and the breakfast was good. On the down side the place is showing it's age decor wise and is, to be kind, in a time warp. Ideally situated for Open Air Theatre etc. The staff made up for any shortcomings. WiFi included in price and on street parking for £2.

Response

Thank you for your feedback.We are in the process of wanting to modernise.Regards Daniel(Management)

Warm welcome, allowed to check in early and put my stuff in my room and go off for the day, lovely clean room only complaint is the yellow curtains as room got very light when the sun came up.Also my daughter left her favourate monkey (soft toy) in the bed, when I phoned up I was told it was not there but it definitely was as I remember where she left it so had a very upset 4 year old on the train journey home.

Response

Thank you for your comments.I am sorry to hear about your daughter\'s soft toy.We will search again and hopefully can find the missing toy.RegardsDaniel (Management)

Came to scarborough for a concert at open air theatre on the wettest day ever and got to the house soaked. Was booked in quickly and shown to my room.the room was clean tidy basic equipment but totally adequate for my needs.would have been better with ensuite but the great breakfast compensated for sharing a loo

Response

Hi Jeanette,thank you for your feedback.Sorry to hear you had terrible weather that day.Hope you will have bright sunshine on your next visit.RegardsDaniel (Management)

Had a lovely stay thank you

Very well situated close to he sea front, room was tidy although could have done with an on suite, toilet on one floor, shower on another and bath on another, not the end of the world but just saying, staff were very polite, gave us all the safety and hotel details on arrival, very good breakfast and bed was comfy, standard wasn't as high as some but can't complain for the price, would stop again and would like to thank the staff for a pleasant stay, regards, Marc and angela, march, Cambs 👍

Response

Hi Marc, thank you for your comments RegardsDaniel (Management)

A bed & breakfast guest house with full English breakfast which was cooked fresh and how you wanted it and plenty of it. Room 1 was aclean, comfortable room for 3 overlooking the cricket ground at the back so was very quiet.Less than ten minutes walk to the waterfront, city centre, Peasholm Park, Open Air Theatre, Alpamare Water Park and Scarborough Castle - Free WIFI available. Parking permits available for guests at a charge of £2.The hosts were polite and pleasant.The only downside was that the room was a little tired and would benefit from new carpets and bedding.

Response

Hi Sylvia,Thank you for your comments.We are in the process of planning to modernise the rooms.RegardsDaniel (Management)

We had a really pleasant stay here. Small but nice rooms, basic facilities but perfectly adequate for a weekend away or a short break. Hearty breakfasts, and great location, 5 mins walk into the centre of town, 3 mins walk to the North Bay and 10/15 mins walk to the South Bay. Very good value for money.

Response

Hi Ben,Great to hear that you had a pleasant stay at the Arran.Hope to see you again when you are next in Scarborough.RegardsDaniel (Management)

Lovely staff, made to feel at home and the breakfast service was excellent.would stay again

Great location, very good host excellent breakfast ,accommodation very dated.

Had nice family room overlooking the cricket ground. Only problem was it was very warm and couldn't get the window to stay open. Short walk to open air theatre and to town centre.

Well our stay was really nice cosy. Warm. Lovely breakfast and the lovely couple who run it namoi and her partner was really helpful and yes would go definitely go bk thanks Chris

If you are not bother about room size, it's an ideal accommodation. Room has everything you could need.Very comfy bed. Definitely we will stay again.

Friendly staff, Good breakfast and peacefull stay near to the beach.

Hi Arran - Tanya and Naomi. I found the guest house to be very good value and convenient. Staff were very helpful and Scarborough has a lot to recommend it. Very well placed for the beaches and local bars/restaurants. Lovely breakfast run by a couple of top northern lasses !

A wonderfully warm welcome was given to me on my arrival, the rooms are clean and comfortable and have tea making facilities and plenty of supplies. Breakfast was excellent. Only a short walk from Peasholm park and the north bay.

Comfortable,warm room.friendly staff,but above all beautiful breakfasts.wont hesitate to use the Arran on my next visit.

Only stayed one night. It was clean and comfortable and the two young ladies who looked after us were very chatty and friendly. Lovely breakfast.

I enjoyed my stay very much at Arran. I was made to feel very welcome by Tanya and Naomi, who were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and tidy and all the facilities were good. Also the breakfast was very good.I have recommended the Arran to family and friends.I will be returning to stay at the Arran this Summer.Best wishesGrenville Wade.

Response

Thank you for your feedback.We look forward to your return stay at the Arran.Hope to see you again soon.

Firstly, we arrived to Arran and the outside of the building looks run down and shocking, needs a freshen up!Then, inside the building was very homely and clean completely different to the outside.Our room was spacious and clean just a shame the toilets and showers you have to share with other guests.Breakfast was lovely, staff very friendly.Would of been better with a little bar too!

Response

Thank you for your comments. We are in the process of improving the front yard.We are glad that you found your room comfortable, the place clean and the staff friendly.You may like to know that we do have 3 en-suite rooms which you may have overlooked at the time of booking.Sorry that we do not serve alcohol at the guest house.Hope to see you again in the future.

Good budget b&b, great host and location.Breakfast was good, thanks Paul.

Such a lovely place to stay, so friendly and really helpful

Very friendly and helpful with anything. Felt very welcome. Room wasn't on suite but was okay, decore was a little dated but smelt very clean. Breakfast in the morning was really good. Would definitely go back again.

Good BB Guest House with good size room. Had a cordial chat with the owner during breakfast time and made us feel comfortable.

First impressions; very clean.Pleasant proprietor/s and easy to interact with them. Free use of the lounge.Very reasonable rates. Room was not an ensuite but that didn't matter as the toilet and shower were nearby.Breakfast was very generous!I was only sorry that we had made plans for Sunday lunch so I was unable to do it justice! Paul and his partner could not have done anymore to make us welcome.

We booked two rooms - one double and one family room and had a wonderful stay. Paul made us feel incredibly welcome. The house and rooms were absolutely spotless, warm and comfortable. Breakfast was yum! Excellent value for money and wouldn't hesitate to go back. BIG THANK YOU :-)

The rooms were really clean and comfortable and the breakfast was nice and very large!!! Would stay again!!

Very friendly host, an excellent cooked breakfast (that will keep you going until the evening), clean room, comfortable bed. If you are going to be doing things round north bay the location is excellent. If around south bay you face a 20 minute walk.

We stayed one night at the Arran guest house and the owner was so courteous and helpful.He made sure we were comfortable, he was cheerful and considerate. We had a lovely comfortable room en suite and we had a very big cooked breakfast, it was lovely.We found no fault and were happy at this guest house, and we had travelled 6 hours from the south of England, we were very cold and the owner made sure the heating was sufficient. We cannot praise him and his efforts any higher. The room was comfortable. Highly Recommended.Good value for money.

B&B stay was lovely. Very friendly. Room was very nice. Only slight problem was as the house is old the room was very cold as there is no double glazing. A menu for breakfast would be nice or ask guests what they would like on there breakfast. Breakfasts were too big and this would cut down on any waste. This is no reflection on our stay.

Stayed in the Arran for one night in a family ensuite room. The price was very reasonable for a last minute booking for two adults and a child. The staff were more than polite and keen to help. Bedroom was clean and tidy. Breakfast was fantastic and plenty of it. Would definitely stay here again.

Our stay at the arran was very comfortable and the room was very clean and good value for money.special thanks to tanya who had a very difficult situation on her hands with the chef and relief chef being off poorly but she made us feel very welcoming and cudnt apologise enough for the inconvenience.she handle the situation brilliantly and we woudnt hesitate to book there again.many thanks xx

I booked us in for anniversary, room was lovely and clean, bed comfy, breakfast was great, hubby says it's the best b&b breastfast he ever had. The only downfall is shared bathrooms but for one night it's ok. Would definitely stay again.

Everything's great especially the breakfast. However, do keep in mind that there is no lift so if u have big baggage u might want to reconsider. Also, the washroom is a bit small and the wifi is so so. We had a pleasant stay anyways :)

We would like to say ,this was the most plessant hotel we have stay in a long,This approx our 7th stay here.The breakfast and service was fantastic.The staff could not do enough for us. We will be back.Cheers Paul

Very comfortable room, owner was fantasticNot far from the beach, would stay here again

This was a late booking, so there was only a non ensuite room left. We were made fully aware of this, and it wasn't a problem. The B & B was clean, staff were very helpful and friendly, and breakfast was plentiful. All in all, good value for money, and nice and close to town.

We had a great stay at the Arran, the family room was clean, we were three mature ladies and were very comfortable throughout our stay.Fantastic view of the cricket pitch from our room. Thebreakfast was second to none

Great hospitality and service. Room was light, spacious and functional.The view of the cricket ground was tremwndous and would have enjoyed the game from the 1st floor bedroom window. Breakfast was well preparedAnd cheerfully made.Will revisit for weekend break soon.Thanks. Neal

having booked thro Booking.com we were a little sceptical of what we would find when we arrived. Our doubts were quickly dispelled. The rooms were very clean.Beds comfortable and warm. The breakfast was out of this world/ It wasnt a full English breakfast, it was a full full English breakfast, there was too much for me to eat. The host, Paul, made us feel at home immediately and nothing was too much trouble. Superb !!!!

Friendly and helpful manager. Excellent location to peasholm park and the north bay. Enjoyable and comfy stay.

We loved staying at Arran its perfect for a quite weekend in Scarborough, homely, friendly and great service. Thanks a lot.

The manager makes this place! Paul was very helpful and welcoming. The room was comfortable and clean. Breakfast to die for!

The staff were absolutely brilliant they couldnt help enough, very attentive. The rooms were lovely, clean and comfortable. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay here and will be returning next year.

Paul the owner is very welcoming rooms are dated but clean was in room 9 in the attack seagulls woke us up at 5 in the morning rooms very close get stags hens and you can hear everything breakfast very good and staff behind over backwards for you so yes it's a good base for the town or the open air theatre

professional staff and very friendly. beautiful environment. we had a superb holiday in Scarborough.

Upon arrival I was met by Paul, friendly and funny and had a great chi chat while checking in. No hassle check-in in the comfy lounge.My room was a single room with everything I needed, kettle, sink with mirror, TV and wardrobe.The toilet/shower was on the landing just outside my door but that didn't matter.The whole guest house was clean, tidy and homely.Breakfast was coffee with toast, grapefruit and a selection of cereal, after came a cooked full English breakfast of bacon, sausage, beans, mushrooms egg and hash brown, even had fried bread and tasted great!!No complains what's so ever. It's a cracking typically English guest house old fashionrdly cute and quaint anf I will be staying there again! Cheers Paul and team!

I was working in the area and happened to drop on this hidden gem. It was very clean, the staff were great and the the breakfast was lovely. What more can you ask for? Even though I was there with work I will definitely be returning with my family.

First class room with view over cricket ground. Fantastic breakfast. Recommend

Had a very nice stay would definitley reccomend

Very good value for your money friendly and a very warm welcome the breakfast was lovely l would reccomend anyone to stay,if ever l go back to scarbourough no douught ile be here again.

Clean bedrooms excellent breakfast, very friendly staff, would stay there again

My mum, 2 sisters and myself stayed here for the night in the family room.Very friendly staff, lovely clean room and comfy beds. Also benefited from a lovely full English breakfast included in the price of the room the next morning.Would definitely recommend.

If Carlsberg did guest houses this would be the one,hospitality, room, location, food, service, couldn't ask for more! So welcoming it felt as if I was a returning friend rather than a guest. Can't speak highly enough of the Arran & their superb staff 😊A*

Stayed at the Arron for one night. Very welcoming and ideally situated for the cricket ground. Breakfast is enormous.

Stayed at the arran for the night very welcoming comfy bed will stay again. the breakfasts were huge and delicious and in a nice location just a stroll from the beach thankyou.

Response

ThanksLooking forward to seeing you againpaul

The Arran is the great guesthouse, clean rooms, great location, breakfast was unbelievable, great host. Would stay again.

Had a fantastic bank holiday. Our room was very spacious and clean. No ensuit but it didn't bother us as a shower was right outside our room and the bathroom just a few steps away. Paul was a great host, no matter how busy he was he had time for all his guests. Very helpful and full of good advice. I have not stayed in a guest house for over 20 years because of a bad experience, but my stay at the Arran has changed my view. I will definitely be back, soon I hope.

The breakfast was very lovely. We only booked one room, but because it was quiet, they gave us two rooms. They even offered to let us stay for another night for free. We slept very well and we hope to come again soon.

We booked to stay in the arran hotel for my partners 30th birthday. The hotel was very clean and paul the manager was a top bloke who couldnt do enough for you. Breakfast was delicious and amples of toast was provided. Definitely going to book for here again.

Staff friendly helpful,rooms good with comfy beds,good value for money.

paul brill host could not do enough for you would stay again some breky that was fab

The Arran is a hotel that can be described as 'Traditional'....But it is clean and tidy inside, the hospitality is second to none, breakfast was fantastic and overall the stay was top notch.Points to note:Single glazing allows you to hear the glorious sounds of the seagulls...even at 5am.If you like to talk about football, this is the the place for you....Paul, (the host) obviously loves football...sadly, my knowledge amounts to about the words you could write on the back of a postage stamp...so sadly I couldn't converse with Paul for too long regarding football, enjoyable chats regarding holidays became the main feature of our chats.Only downside to my stay was that the internal WIFI signal was quite weak and slow in the room, but I was kindly offered the front room to undertake my work if I wished too, fortunately, 'EE'4G signal was great, so I could use that.As I said, overall...my stay was top notch and would happily stay there again.

Great value for money friendly owner an great breakfast

There are many many BB's in Scarborough & in terms of the rooms probably not that much too choose between them....so quality service is the key to a good choiceArran has a spacious, comfortable lounge and an excellent manager in Paul....very helpful, polite & friendly, nothing too much troubleBreakfast was excellent & ensuite room was clean & comfortableEasy walk to town centre or to beachesWould recommend
