Didn’t quite live up to the rating in our opinion. Building and room had a musty, almost damp smell to it.
Breakfast is at a cafe next door, which was good but you only get a £5.50 limit. A small breakfast is £5.50 which means you have to pay for your drinks. Breakfast should always include a cuppa!!
Shower pressure in room 5 was borderline awful.
Host was a nice chap.
All it all, it wasn’t unpleasant but will try elsewhere next time.

New owner from late July/early August. No owner or manager on site. Check in requires phone call to owner who will arrive in 10 minutes to let you in. Kitchen being refurbished so no breakfast. Breakfast at nearby restaurant is partially subsidized by owner if you had paid for it at The Meltham.
Fire alarm doesn't work in all rooms - we had a false alarm which took 20 minutes for the owner to respond and turn it off - no Fire Department response.
Our room was cleaned on the first 2 days but not on the 3 remaining days. Only soap in the room was one small bar. Shower never worked properly despite owner's attempts to correct. Towels very poor quality and were replaced only when requested.
8.0
Clean & comfy, wasn't anybody around to get any milk, or extra tea or coffee. A hairdryer would be a big bonus in the room, otherwise a comfortable stay.
4.0
A good experience overall. The B&B had just been acquired by a new owner immediately prior to our arrival and so some of the signage around the premises wasn't up to date and a couple of things were unusual. Breakfast was at the cafe next door, with a set budget which we could pay above if we wanted more - this was actually quite flexible and worked well for us, although we couldn't have breakfast until the cafe opened at 9am which meant starting later on our day than we would have preferred. We also did not have WiFi throughout the visit as the password had changed and we weren't given the new one despite requesting it, which was the only real issue with an otherwise comfortable stay.

The hotel was ok, location was good. Breakfast was at a run down cafe at the end of the road. We had an allowance of £5.50 each to spend there each morning.
1.0
The description is misleading. There is no bar & the breakfast is served at the cafe up the road. You can spend up to £7.50. The people who let us in acted surprised to see us & there was no one around for the majority of the time. No one to take the keys back at checkout time.

Meltham House is a fantastic base to travel the East Coast and the premises itself was as good as anywhere I have stayed before. The facilities are great and the owner if very friendly and helpful. I will return.

The room was lovely and spotless and very comfortable the bed was also comfortable the hosts Alison and Marc were very nice and couldnt do enough the breakfast was very nice and we would definately return.
5.0
An excellent place to stay, clean and friendly and a short walk to Peasholm Park, the Open Air theater and North Bay Beach. The roads are wider in this part of town and you can park for 3 hours on the street with a disc, or all day with a scratcher card from Alison.
Room 2 is a well-planned and decorated double twin room with a spacious bathroom. There is a large tub and an easy to operate shower.
The breakfast was excellent.
If you have children with you, there is a games room in the basement to keep them entertained.
A folder of places to visit is provided too.

Liked my stay at the Meltham, only gripe is with Expedia - who failed to get the property details right. Stated 'no pets' yet found to allow them - this is a serious failing as I have a very common pet allergy - which could put me in hospital. Guest house fortunately put me in an upstairs room away from problems and I accept it was not their fault. Expedia - time to get your act together!

This was a lovely guest house in a good location. The owners were very happy, jolly and welcoming. We had a nice sized room and bathroom with a good selection of teas, coffees and a kettle in the room. The lighting options were awesome. (So many places seem to have dim lighting!) The wifi was excellent and there were lots of power outlets and a fan. Everything was well thought out to meet a guests needs. We had an excellent Full English breakfast each in the morning with plenty of tea. The only 'bad' thing we had was we had to park a couple streets over due to a huge concert being in town that night. The owners gave us a parking disk to put on the car dash and it was free to park there overnight. More inconvenient than 'bad' as we had a lot of baggage and it probably isnt that bad on a normal night in town. After we checked in we took a lovely walk along the seafront which was an easy walk away. We also found a lovely pub just up the road. We would definitely stay here again. Thankyou!

The Meltham gave us a free parking disc when we arrived in Scarborough at 10.00am, which was GREAT. We parked on the road outside and didn't need to move the car at all during our stay. Our comfy room was ready, so we checked straight in. Alison was really helpful with LOADS of useful tips about the area. Great value for money, everything we needed was provided in our room (as well as toiletries, sewing kit, shower cap) tea, coffee and biscuits. Lovely breakfast (fruit and cereals followed by a tasty full English). A really good B and B, easy walking distance for our overnight stay after the Open Air Theatre concert. Thanks!

Booked The Meltham due to location for open air theatre. It didn't disappoint in any way. Met by the very friendly host (Alison) who gave us a permit to park. Because we had arrived early we went for a look around and we were messaged as soon as our room was ready. We had room 5 and despite a few stairs the room had everything we needed included a spacious bathroom with a shower that was easy to control and very good. The room was spotlessly clean and tidy the bed was very comfortable and we both slept well. Next morning breakfast (which was conveniently pre ordered) was plentiful and very nice also staying were other guests who had been to the same Jane Mcdonald concert the night before so some pleasant chit-chat over breakfast. I wouldn't hesitate to stay at The Meltham again and would recommend to anyone visiting Scarborough

Had an excellent overnight stay here and could not fault it - the room was comfortable, welcoming and clean, the breakfast was lovely, the location was ideal for the event we attended at the Scarborough Open Air Theatre and, last but not least, the owner was so friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable about the local area. Would highly recommend The Meltham and will definitely stay here again.

We had a lovely stay, the room was clean, spacious and comfortable. It felt like we were staying with friends/family rather than a b&b! Breakfast was lovely as well. Very close to the open air theatre if this is your reason for your visit.

Just returned from a short break at the Meltham. The guest house was very easy to find with ample parking, and was spotlessly clean and is brilliantly located for both North & South Bay.
We booked the family for 2 adults & 3 children. It was a really pleasant surprise to find a guest house that could accommodate a family of 5. We’d looked all over and most options meant booking 2 separate rooms. The room was perfect, we couldn’t have asked for more. The beds were very comfy, lots of clean towels were available, and lots of sockets to charge all the electronic devices!! There was a night light which is great if you’ve children who aren’t that keen on the dark yet!
The other guests were very considerate, and despite there being a number of other rooms occupied, it was very quiet.
The kitchen in the family suite is a great addition too, the little fridge was really useful.
The games room was a welcome distraction for 3 energetic children, and 1 young at heart adult (when they discovered the Sega Mega Drive to relive their youth!!)
The owner, Alison was very attentive, welcoming & friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was served at a time of our choosing, and was perfectly cooked. Lots of toast and juice, and all the food was cooked just how we liked it which is great if you’ve a fussy eater or two! There was ample choice and being able to choose the night before was really helpful!
Would definitely stay again, and would recommend it to anyone!
