What can we say? This little hotel is a real gem and it restores our faith in the british hotelier. High standards of comfort and cleanliness and exemplary food need not be expensive. You don't have to go to some of the so called four star places with staff who don't care or mind. Alex and Julie are wonderful hosts.... More

Normally used to the bigger impersonal hotel chains we didn’t really know what to expect. We shouldn’t have worried – our experience was delightful. From a bright and breezy welcome from the owner Julie through 3 wonderful breakfasts and a cheery goodbye it -was wall-to-wall short break sunshine (literally - with temps over 28C everyday!). The rooms was very well... More

We were looking forward to our visit to The Alexander, the second of the year, and we weren't to be disappointed! Alex and Julie provide a first class service in this lovely 8 bedroom hotel. The rooms vary in size and price but all the rooms are spotlessly clean and well appointed, and the little extras that are provided don't... More

As we spent our honeymoon in Scarborough some 60 years ago we thought we ought to go down memory lane (whilst we are still able!). We couldn't have picked a better place to stay. Julie and Alex made our stay really something to remember. From the moment we arrived, to our departure, nothing was too much trouble. A nice pot... More

The review of twelve months ago surely indicated that we were determined to return....and so we have - three times! Any search for deficiences is fruitless. A couple of points to add to previous commendations. We arrived on the day my sister and her husband were departing the 'Alexander'. We had the chance of an hour together before they left.... More

This hotel has a great location just around the corner from Peasholm Park and the North Bay but just tucked far enough away to be nice and quiet. It has great car parking which is very efficiently organised by the owners. We booked one of the luxury rooms on the first floor (room 3) which exceeded our expectations, namely it... More
