Interludes Hotel Scarborough
About the hotel . . .
'Interludes' is a grade 2 listed Georgian building. It is well
placed in the heart of the Old Town conservation area, lying
twixt Castle and Harbour. Because of our enviable setting many of the
attractions of Scarborough are just a pleasant stroll away.
We have just five bedrooms (double, four-poster or twin). Each is equipped for the comfort of
two guests and is strictly non-smoking for your comfort and safety. Quality furnishings, colour TV, hairdryer, radio, central
heating and courtesy tray are standard. Four rooms have sea views over the South Bay and have an en-suite wc with shower or bath. The
remaining room has a shower and WC immediately adjacent.

The elegant lounge on the first floor, with its twin chesterfields is the perfect place to relax.
The dining room is an attractive non-smoking room featuring two
large polished mahogany tables and in common with all other rooms,
has a display of theatre prints, photographs and other memorabilia.
Evening meals are prepared to order and must be booked in advance. We
are pleased to prepare vegetarian and many other special diets. A
selection of fine wines is available and 'Interludes' has a full
residential licence.
Information that you will not normally see in hotel advertising - but
there is no such thing as a universally perfect hotel! Different guests
have different needs and requirements, so to avoid disappointing you when
you arrive, here are a few things which may put you off!!
Parking
What can we say. This is an historic Conservation Area - and Scarborough now has a residents' parking scheme.
In the Old Town there is normally sufficient parking for our guests but at peak times (Bank Holidays and the main Summer Holiday period) it may be more difficult. When you arrive in Scarborough come to Interludes first and - according to the time of day and how many nights you are staying - we will give you either a time clock or a scratch card. These will give you free parking in the Old Town during your stay with us.
No Smoking
On the coast the air is clean and fresh and that is how we like our home - plus - most hotel
fires are started by guests smoking in bed. Not here please.
Stairs
We have them everywhere. Nice Georgian stairs with fairly
shallow wide treads, half landings and lots of posters to look at
as you climb. There are no ground floor bedrooms.
Dogs &/or Children
Penny 1991 - |
Dorcas 1983 - 2003 |
Sasha 2003 - |
The original owner of the hotel (Dorcas Cat) put her paws down and banned them - a tradition Penny cat and Sasha cat are determined to continue. This keeps 'Interludes' quiet and peaceful. See 'Seagulls' below.
Seagulls
They live in resort towns. They squawk. Then they squawk some more.
Hills
We are on a hillside. This gives us our panoramic views across
the south bay. It is a steep hill from two out of three directions.
'Cardiac Hill' one guest christened it. Quite!
We hope that you still want to visit us because a happy guest returns - many times
- and recommends us to friends. That is how we get most of our business, not
through paid advertising but through word of mouth. We like that!
