What a delightful boutique B&B! So glad we found this place. Just off the main road, but still so quiet and just a short walk from the sea on the south side of Scarborough. The Cordelia is beautifully furnished with some lovely vintage pieces and we adored the sweeping staircases and pretty guest lounge - a lot of thought has gone into the feel of this hotel. Rebecca knows how to look after her guests and make them feel welcome. Our room, which was the smallest double on offer, was perfect! Cosy, warm, large modern shower room, lots of toiletries provided, plenty of storage for our suitcases, and a well-stocked refreshments tray with lots of choice of teas/coffee (and proper mugs! - thank you, cannot stand the usual tiny cups and saucers most places give you). Bed was super comfy (and I have sciatica so I know!). Breakfast was just the best - absolutely delicious! I had smashed avo on toast with halloumi and poached egg, and also tried the full English which was amazing. You fill in a form the night before so can order as many breakfast items as you would like, for a tailor-made meal. If you are looking for a hotel in Scarborough, I thoroughly recommend this one.

Lovely hotel!

This is a lovely guest house!  The couple who run it are friendly, professional and helpful, and the hotel is comfortable, attractively furnished and spotlessly clean.  They offer breakfast, which is pre-ordered and so individually cooked, using top-quality produce, apparently locally sourced wherever possible. There are no other dining room meals, but by request a cold platter can be delivered to your room for a supper at any time in the evening. I ordered a cheese slate which sported five local (and delicious) cheeses served with crusty bread, several different crackers, pickled onions, olives, two different chutneys, walnuts and dried apricots - a real feast. The hotel is situated only a couple of hundred yards from the cliff top in beautiful South Bay. It was a lovely stay and I hope to return.

A lovely guest house.

The small, welcoming Cordelia is situated on South Cliff and is owned and run by James and Rebecca. On arrival we were greeted by James, who firstly gave us the necessary card and disc for free on street parking. After showing us the ground floor guest lounge, he then showed us to our room which was really spacious. The bed was king size, two easy chairs, there was a tray set up for tea, coffee and biscuits, a flat screen tv with remote and an en suite with toilet, wash basin, a range of toiletries, shower cubicle and the biggest bath towels I have ever seen. A few minutes after arriving, Rebecca appeared with thick slices of buttered date and walnut cake as a welcome. We were given cards to complete to order breakfast for the next day. Breakfast was excellent. In addition to the usual fruit juice, cereals, toast and jam you could order a fruit bowl consisting of fresh, sliced banana, strawberry, grape and melon - very refreshing, smashed avocado with grilled haloumi on toast with a fried egg, a generous slice of smoked salmon and scrambled egg on a toasted bagel or compose your own "full english". Although dinner was not served, you could order a Supper Plate - a cheese plate or a charcuterie plate. This consisted of 5 cheeses or meats together with crusty bread and butter, assorted crackers, nuts, apricots, pickled onions, olives and various relishes. The Supper Plates were served in your room. James and Rebecca are really friendly, welcoming hosts and nothing is too much trouble. At breakfast, Rebecca is always asking if you want more of anything - you will never go hungry at The Cordelia! One nice touch - the hand and bath towels were colour coded - one set white and the other coloured so there was no "is this mine or yours?"  The Cordelia is the 7th place we have stayed in Scarborough and is certainly top of our list for future visits, 10/10 from us.
NOTE: although on South Cliff, buses pass the end of the street and the Tramway down to the Spa runs from just along from the bottom of the street.

What a Gem!

Quiet location.
Great breakfast produce
The building is really well furnished and very clean. Friendly owner and staff.
Everything you need is provided.
Few years since last visit but the rooms are lovely 

Fantastic breakfast 

Everything about The Cordelia is 5*. Cleanliness, service, food, bedding and room tray.  Nothing has been forgotten by Rebecca and James. Our second stay here and we'll be back again.  It's location is a perfect base for walking and exploring and coming back to our huge comfortable room was a treat.  

Like home from home

Lovely guest house. Clean, comfortable, high quality touches and a friendly welcome. Breakfast each day was cooked to order and piping hot with very high-quality ingredients. Very comfy beds. Short walk along the top down to the bay, with lovely views along the way.

A lovely stay

Just had three nights here ,lovely Hotel with very helpful staff.Spotlessly clean and so quiet, I thought we were the only guests.A really hearty breakfast with plenty of choice.Could not have been better,if you want a peaceful and comfortable break this is the place.

Lovely welcoming Hotel

A flying visit to Scarborough for one night to see a show at The Spa Theatre. This is a fabulous B & B in a stunning Victorian property. It’s furnished to the highest of standards and the breakfast was first class. A great selection with plenty of vegetarian options. I would like to echo all the previous positive reviews. Highly recommended.

10 out of 10

Had a warm welcome when we arrived. Rooms very well furnished and a large comfortable bed.  Area quiet at night.
Located not far from the town centre and the front.
The parking is free using a card provided by the accommodation. 
The stairs may pose a challenge if you lack mobility

A nice place to stay.

We had a lovely three night stay at the Cordelia - the room was perfect for us and the breakfast was delicious. The owners, Rebecca and James are very welcoming. It's a short walk to South bay which was one of the highlights of the trip. Would definitely recommend The Cordelia and we'll be returning.
