Crossways

Just back from a three night stay at Crossways. Very nice old building with lots of character and only 300 yards from the centre of town. Pauline and Simon are wonderful hosts, very nice comfortable room and fabulous breakfasts. Private car park too just behind their pretty little garden. Highly recommended.

Not for us! We were disappointed with the hotel. Were given attic room up four lots of stairs. Decor very dated and mismatched. Room cold even though electric radiator provided. En suite shower very small with no heating. Bed quite firm which we found uncomfortable. On plus side bed linen very clean as were towels. Breakfast was nice and well presented although again room was cold. In fact whole building was quite cold as certainly not many radiators. We actually cut our visit short and only stayed for one night instead of the two we had planned.

We had a wonderful reception from the owner. Assisted us throughout our stay. It was lovely to open up the window and enjoy the cooling breeze after other stuffy rooms. Breakfast was a delight. Great experience and highly recommended.

Disappointed value for money The room was very cold and in need of an upgrade.

Crossways Pickering centre of a great world. Crossways was a unique experience of life in a hotel in a bygone era,where time stood still,everything was prim and proper and every thing was just perfect. Paulines hotel decor reflects her love of her life and time spent in years of world wide hotel management, and it shows in her wonderful down to earth attitude,her amazing breakfasts, and professionalism with a hint of humour for her guests. Great location in the middle of Pickering and ideal for visits to Whitby, Scarborough,Bridlington etc. Fantastic steam train ride on your door step. Excellent large free car park at rear of the property and gateway through garden to hotel. Nothing was too much trouble to please guests. My wife and I enjoyed every moment of our 4 night stay. You will want to go back again.

Cosy, clean nicely presented, friendly helpful owners, would return again.
