Helen our wedding planner was fantastic

My experience regarding, The Royal hotel; was really good Helen the wedding planner was always on call and eager to help. I can't compliment her enough for what she gave us on the day. If your looking to get married in Scarborough I would strongly advise The Royal. The only issues came from the night staff, they took the food away a little early and a lot of people hadn't had chance to eat, including myself! But this could of been dealt with I was just so busy I didn't get chance to speak with the night manager. But if you looking for the most breath-taking views with the Grand Stairwell and the Wedding room. Thank you again Helen.

Perfect from beginning to end 😁

We booked an appointment to see Helen the wedding coordinator and to have a look around the hotel. From that moment on I had a fabulous experience. Communication with Helen was spot on, nothing too much trouble. The big day itself was just perfect,the staff, the food, the ceremony, the reception. Everything went so well and exceeded our expectations thankyou Helen and team xx.

We booked our hotel in 2021 for 30.9.23.
Throughout the last 2 years Helen from the Royal hotel was been absolutely amazing. The work Helen and the team put in for our special day was truly amazing. We choose afternoon tea and all we can say was WOW. The buffet on the evening amazing!
I cannot thank everyone at the royal enough for what they did for us!
