+ Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Almar, everything was spot on, breakfast choices were amazing, between us we tried, cooked breakfast, fresh fruit which was plentiful with, strawberries, grapes, bananas, blueberries, oranges, pineapple. Cooked breakfast was very tasty, especially fried bread and black pudding. Room was very comfortable, bed and especially pillows were very good. Highly recommend this little gem tucked away in the quieter part of Scarborough. Julie and John were the perfect hosts, thank you, we'll be back.

+ Wow! What a great little place 🩵 I travel around the country a fair bit with my daughter and this has been my favourite place to stay to date! The welcome that you receive from John and Julie beats any 5 star hotel, anywhere we’ve been to date! They are wonderful hosts and make every guest feel welcome! Bed was comfy, everything was on your doorstep, WiFi great, parking is great, bar is well stocked and there is no shortage of complimentary toiletries, drinks, snacks etc. Clean, comfortable and good value for money! I understand why there are so many repeat guests. My daughter was sad to leave (never happened before) and we would have stayed an extra night had they not been fully booked! A truly wonderful place - it’s run from the heart and you can tell!
− Nothing bad to report. Property is on a fairly busy road and has a bar but it was surprisingly peaceful!
