Phoenix Court Hotel
Five-star comfort a short walk from North Bay
About this hotel
Phoenix Court Hotel delivers five-star comfort on a quiet Scarborough street, a nine-minute walk from Scarborough North Bay and, by extension, Alpamare's water park, with Scarborough Castle just 400 metres away and Peasholm Park under a kilometre. Rooms come with sea views, private bathrooms, tea and coffee makers, hairdryers and free toiletries, and free on-site private parking removes the North Bay parking hunt entirely. The quiet-street setting means the five-star comfort extends past the room into genuinely restful evenings, a point of difference from busier town-centre alternatives. Guests consistently highlight the attentive staff and impeccable room cleanliness. It closes as the pick for families or couples wanting proper comfort without sacrificing the walk to the water park.
- 5-star comfort
- Free private parking
- Quiet street setting
Our take
This suits families or couples who want genuine five-star comfort within walking distance of Alpamare rather than choosing between the two. The quiet street setting suits those wanting rest after a slides day over nightlife, and the free parking is a real practical plus for anyone driving up the coast.
- ✓Request a sea-view room specifically when booking, since not every room faces the water at this rate.
- ✓Book well ahead for peak summer weeks, since five-star rooms this close to Alpamare are limited in number.
- ✓Use the free on-site parking rather than risking street parking, which is tighter on this side of North Bay in season.
Why we love it
- 9-minute walk to North Bay and Alpamare
- Free on-site private parking
- Sea views from several rooms
- Attentive staff and impeccable cleanliness
Why guests love itWe treated ourselves to Phoenix Court for our last two nights, and the nine-minute walk to Alpamare felt entirely manageable even with tired kids in tow. The sea view from our room made the evenings feel special rather than just another stopover, and the free parking meant we did not think twice about driving in for supplies. Staff remembered our names by day two, which the kids loved.
