DescriptionThis elegant and iconic building provides spacious and beautifully appointed accommodation over five floors plus the lower ground level, with the bedrooms arranged across the second to the fourth floors. The high ceilings and large windows of the ground floor public areas provide a good degree of light and space, further enhancing the grandeur and period feel which is evident throughout.
The entrance leads to a welcoming hall with lift access to all floors and reception desk with office behind. The hall also gives access to the Restaurant and the Lounge. These rooms are spacious and offer a tremendous amount of trading space, are open to the public and also hold civil wedding licences. The Restaurant boasts an AA Red Rosette for food and is used for both breakfast and evening meals, whilst the Lounge serves brunches, light meals and afternoon teas throughout the day.
LocationThe Palm Court Hotel enjoys a prominent position in central Scarborough, and within easy walking reach of all the attractions and amenities which this wonderful seaside resort has to offer. These include the jaw dropping medieval Scarborough Castle which overlooks South Bay Beach, the world famous ‘Stephen Joseph Theatre In The Round’, Scarborough Spa Conference Centre, as well as the Open Air Theatre, Alpamare Water Theme Park, Scarborough Miniature Railway and Peasholm Park.
All these and others, combined with the busy harbour and sandy beaches, help to swell visitor numbers all year round.
Aside from Scarborough itself, the region has a multitude of reasons to visit, such as the magnificent Heritage Coast, home to many picturesque harbour villages such as Sandsend, Robin Hoods Bay and the historic seaside town of Whitby. There is also the stunning North York Moors National Park very close by plus a little further afield is Castle Howard, Flamingo Land and of course, York, in itself, a huge draw for leisure and worldwide visitors.
Ancillary RoomsOn the lower ground floor there is the main commercial catering kitchen, which is more than adequate to service a catering operation of this magnitude, and includes ample cooking, cooling and washing appliances, prep and storage areas, a fridge room and a newly refurbished pot wash room. There is also a small service and prep kitchen behind the main restaurant. Aside from this, there are numerous store-rooms, staff rooms and customer toilets.
To the rear of the hotel is a disused and decommissioned indoor pool which could lend itself to conversion to further rooms or a host of other uses.
Letting AccommodationArranged across the first to the fourth floors, the bedrooms are all well-appointed and in many cases are very large and spacious with en-suite facilities. All beds, duvets and toppers have been replaced recently, and each room offers White Company toiletries, complimentary WiFi, tea and coffee making facilities, bottled water and luxury linen and pillows. The Glaisdale Suite boasts an additional sitting room and is situated on the first floor along with the Farndale Room, which can accommodate 100 guests and is used for conferences, meetings and weddings, as it holds a wedding licence.
