Ideally situated for my boat trips. Room good size clean and comfortable. Excellent breakfast. Good choice for evening meals. Staff friendly and helpful. I would stay there again for my whale trips. Only minor thing which wasn't great was that on one morning I was out before breakfast and the hotel supplied a 'pack up'. This consisted of a packet of crisps, a biscuit and bottle of water.

I am a regular at the Captain Cook Inn. It has an unique ambience which refects Staithes village itself. Bed extremely comfortable but the duvet was a higher tog than the heatwave needed.

Panorama of Staithes

Fantastic location - warm welcome and great prawn sandwich. The room had wonderful views and bathroom amenities good. However the bed needs a new mattress!

Value for money, free parking and great breakfast

More like rooms above a pub restaurant than a ‘hotel’. Big room with tea-making facilities, complimentary bottles of water, single-use toiletries, hair dryer and floor fan. Great view from the window. However, the light coloured carpet is a little stained, it’s not really suitable for non-domestic use. The room I was in would benefit from a bit of investment and TLC. The rooms are on the first and second floors (there isn’t a lift) and all the doors have push button coded locks. Friendly staff. I felt safe in this hotel. It’s a great base for exploring the surrounding areas.

Nice view from window, large room, pub area was nice with good food. Lock to the door was difficult (no secondary lock), shower had poor water pressure, white carpet was quite dirty, but it was in a good location to access if you are hiking the Cleveland Way.

Staithes is a beautiful village, although we were certainly lucky with the weather. The Inn was a great place to stay, with a tucked away car park at the rear. Nice big room and good bathroom. Great breakfast including kippers as an option. It is short walk down into the village where there are other eating and drinking options too and lovely walks and views. Steep back up though!
