Here are the comments we’ve received when asking our customers “Are there any other comments you would like to make ?”. There some fabulous comments in here !

“As always, this is the best place to stay in Whitby, no question; I stayed in a LOT of places in town before discovering the Penthouse, and now will not stay anywhere else.  Penthouse views and quietness, coupled with private lift access, spotless cleanliness, and everything you could ever need tucked away in the cupboards, guarantees the perfect, effortlessly relaxing, holiday.  I'm writing this in the Penthouse and already plotting my next visit.  :-)”

“We love our visits to the Penthouse Apartment..  1st class¦. Thank you...”

“You will not regret staying at the Penthouse !”

“We will be back!”

“We're in the middle of it (our stay) and so far we are loving it. The penthouse is brilliantly located, with easy access the to bustling centre and to the more sedate and beautiful coastal areas...”

“Had a wonderful time very conviniently situated...”

“Lovely stay, will definitely return...”

“Communications have been second to none. Excellent location too...”

“Easy access parking no problem.bedrooms comfortable but could do with a chair in there.not so good plates all chipped need replacing.echo speaker wouldn't work after being switched off because it wouldn't switch off first time used...” - There is a bar stool in the corner but we didn’t think a chair was a requirement, the plates have a few chips BUT we do say if any are dangerous leave them out for the cleaner to remove. The echo dot worked ok before and after, as with the lack of biscuits comment on the previous page we always say get in touch if there is a problem, we cannot do anyting about things such as this  when we only get comments on a feedback form.

“I have stayed in many other cottages, apartments and rooms in Whitby over the years, but since discovering Janette's Whitby Penthouse I will not stay anywhere else.  It is the best accommodation in Whitby, without question.  And it feels so homely that it breaks our little hearts to leave and we have to start planning our next stay immediately!”

“Already booked for next year, and hopefully many more to come. Lovely gesture of a card and a bottle of cava for our 30th anniversary. Amazing thank you.”

“We didn't want to leave and can't wait to come back!”

“Just a fab holiday in a fab apartment !”

“I don't think you would find a better apartment for the price. “

“We always enjoy our stay at the Penthouse..”

“We had a great few days, despite the weather being very changable.  Apartment is in a good position for the beach, town and coastal path...”

“Once again we have had a fab stay in the Whitby Penthouse.  We both said it was like 'coming home' when we walked in...”

“Lovely apartment, great location...”

“I also appreciate that you let the apartment for individual days rather than just weeks or set part weeks.  It really helped us when booking.  Parking was an issue as we went during school holidays but it was good” - this is why we provide the car park permit, it isn’t often used but just gives that back up option !

“Stayed here on numerous occasions over the years and Chris and Janette take pride in making our stay special every time !”

“We will always stay here whilst present owners own it !”

!Such a lovely place to stay...”

“We usually stay in the sea view and never experienced a bad time.This occasion we booked into the penthouse apartment with no regrets fantastic break.The owners cannot do enough to help !”

“This is our "happy place" we have already booked next years holidays in this wonderful apartment !”

“Any issues are quickly resolved. Very impressed...” - DVD  player didn't work so we recommended using Netflix, we have replacement DVD player for the next visit

“The apartment was great, very clean and a perfect place to come back to...”

“Extremely comfortable, well equipped apartment offering good value for money...”

“We’ve visited on a number of occasions and we are always impressed...”

“We absolutely loved staying in your beautiful apartment. It’s in a great location and we were all very sad to leave...”

“Janette and Chris work tirelessly to ensure we have absolutely everything we need and go above and beyond to help us if needed! Both apartments are top class, fit for Royalty to stay, this is our “ special place”❤️The only down side is having to go home! This is certainly our “ Happy place” Thankyou Janette and Chris once again!!”

“Love this apartment. Home from Home...”

“Great place to stay a real home from home !”

“Will definitely be back. Love Whitby and love the apartment. See you soon...”

“Already booked for next year and wanting ro book for 2024...”

“The main problem with the apartment is it's so like home we never want to go out!...”

“Communication is above and beyond. Fast fix on any issues even minor ones dorted immediately. Can't thank you enough....”

“Unfortunately we had to leave a day early as I was feeling unwell. We found out the following day (Sat) that we were both suffering with covid. We are isolating now but it won't stop us returning in the future...” - this is such a shame and we wish you a speedy recovery !

“A lovely well equipped apartment...”

“This Penthouse apartment is so special to us , Janette and Chris do everything they can to ensure we have a wonderful holiday, we arrived and there was a bottle of prosecco, a card and goodies for Ruby our dog, they remembered it's our wedding anniversary whilst we are here, how wonderful !! A huge thank you ������”

“The apartment exceeded our memories...”

“We booked this last minute for a birthday celebration few days away. It looked good on the site and we were more than satisfied when we arrived. It was perfect for our relaxing break. A real home from home. The phone call on the first evening was also a lovely touch. It really is reassuring to stay in an apartment where the owners care about the holiday makers’ experience. Thank you...”

“Fabulous apartment, really well equipped with everything and more. Extra touches of fresh milk , biscuits and doggy treats were much appreciated. Wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Whitby...”

“Janette and Chris work tirelessly in both apartments maintaining them to the highest standards possible, the added extras ie : bucks fizz , mince pies ,milk, tea, coffee xmas decorations and crackers that's without the toiletries , complementary pen and key ring ...phew , Thank you both , you are amazing ��”

“The double bed mattress was too hard for me and the hubby, but that’s just our opinion.. everyone is different...” - it’s a brand new medium firmness mattress - we try and go for the medium to try and cater for the majority

Your apartments are so nice and very reasonably priced there are a lot of people after them !”

“We will have a comfortable, action packed stay here...”

“We have always loved staying in this apartment and whenever we come to Whitby this is the place we would wish to stay in...”

“Beautiful apartment on the west cliff, ideal location for eateries and drinks. The owners have thought of everything to make your holiday go well. The apartment is beautiful, superbly decorated and spotlessly clean...”

“Can't believe how well equipped this apartment is my husband and I were speechless. Everything has been thought of. Should he proud of yourselves...”

“Another fabulous break. An exceptionally well equipped apartment, and for us now…. A home from home. We couldn’t ask for anything more. Janette and Chris definitely go the extra mile to make their guests stay as comfortable as possible...”

“Would only ever stay at the penthouse when visiting Whitby...”

“Most definitely. Janette and Chris did everything and more to make our visit memorable...”

“Always a pleasure to stay as home from home. Will be back again. We love that you don’t have to pack so much stuff especially when you have little ones as so much easier. Loved the extra touches which we haven’t had before like complimentary milk and biscuits!”

“Nothing could be done to make it even better...”

“Second time we've stayed. Just as wonderful as the first time. We love it. Just like home from home it's so well equipped. Chris and Jeanette definitely go above and beyond to ensure their guests are happy...”

Bedding could be higher quality with matching pillow cases...” - For some reason the cleaner mixed up the different coloured pillowcases, if we had known we would have resolved this immediately

The space, comfort and facilities were second to none. The private entrance via the lift made it seem very much like your "own home" for a few days. We were very impressed overall. Also very good for or parking. Excellent location...”

“We were there for our wedding and the owners went to the trouble of leaving some gifts and decorating the apartment, it was a lovely touch and much appreciated !”

“Unless you stay in the Penthouse apartment in Whitby you won't realise what you're missing when you stay in other apartments. It's well positioned, superbly decorated, everything you needd is there apart from your clothes. The photos of the apartment are good but it's 100% better when you step out of the lift into the apartment itself. It's a special place!”

“The apartment more than fullfilled the expectations portrayed in the details on the website. Credit to yourselves as owners...”

“Simply amazing...”

“Too many trinkets and ornaments for us - not quite enough space in bathroom to put our own toiletries than on window ledge. No bath towels, if I'd have known I'd have brought my own” - guest toiletry storage is available but had been used by the compliementary items which have now been put in their correct place, bath towels are provided but not batn sheets, these weren’t available in the range we chose

“Excellent accommodation - lovely view...”

“I would prefer a much later check out time on the last morning - 10am is early - more like a hotel than apartment. During Goth weekend people stay out until 2am etc. Some hotels recognise this and extend checkout times...” - Customer had not requested this upon booking and our Terms & Conditions state arrival and departure time, so requirement not known until feedback form. Customer advised to request this next time and we can price accordingly.

“Fantastic location and stunning views...!”
