Welcome To the
Riviera Guesthouse, Whitby
Oh I do like to be beside the seaside… And there’s no place quite like Whitby!
Fish and chips and queuing up for your favourite ice cream; sand castle competitions and dipping your toes in chilly water, brightly coloured beach huts and fresh salty sea air; a stroll around a quaint town and a rambling walk in the countryside.
If you are looking to escape for a classic seaside break, there is no better destination than Whitby. Recognised as the epitome of a British seaside holiday, Whitby has everything you could ask for and more.
Boasting one of the best locations for accommodation in town is the Riviera. Our family-friendly guest house has received several awards for excellence in guest satisfaction.
What’s more you won’t find a better outlook in Whitby than here, with panoramic views out to the dramatic North Sea, Whitby Harbour and across to the next bay of Sandsend from our comfortably appointed en suite bedrooms and dining rooms.
All these things and more, make for perfect sun kissed memories.
We’re looking forward to welcoming you to Whitby and the Riviera!
