ABOUT US
La Rosa Hotel is a destination for romance, escapism and fantasy.
Situated in an elegant period townhouse on Whitby's West Cliff, our hotel was once a favourite of Lewis Carroll and boasts one of the finest views in the country... Facing us across the picturesque harbour are the ruins of Whitby Abbey, inspiration for Bram Stoker's Dracula.
Each of our unique rooms have been lovingly designed using Whitby's rich heritage as inspiration. Furnished with thrift shop finds and carefully sourced antique kitsch, fun and opulence are high on the agenda throughout


Our Victorian tearoom serves home made cakes and drinks and is available for private hire, as is the whole hotel - a perfect destination for family get togethers and celebrations.
You won't find TVs or telephones in our rooms... La Rosa is a place to unwind and get away from it all. However, we do have a great selection of books and vintage records available in our Cocktail Library for when the mist rolls in, as well as free wifi throughout the hotel.

Harry Pearson
Conde Nast
Attentive and eager to please, but not in a Mad Hatter sense, La Rosa strikes that fine balance between restful and friendly."
Jo Shute
The Telegraph
Arriving at La Rosa Hotel is a bit like tumbling down the rabbit hole and into wonderland itself."
Jessica Johnson
Coast Magazine
La Rosa is an inviting, fun and seductive wonderland... The love of hospitality oozes from every rescued piece of gorgeousness at La Rosa."

Happy Sailing!"
Brian Eno
Musical Genius
Think Victorian theatre set. There are no telephones, televisions or showers (but the rolltop baths are decadently inviting)."
Gareth Huws
Daily Mail
Perched on the West Cliff in Whitby, La Rosa is a riot of Victorian inspiration... coupled with memorably decorated rooms and sea views."

LET'S TALK ABOUT MUSIC...
We've got the best!
We take our music selection seriously at la Rosa...
With nearly 40 years DJing experience, owner Rob has amassed a huge vinyl collection from which our soundtrack is taken. If you were out on Call Lane in the nineties or Tib Street in the noughties, you've probably seen him behind the decks rummaging through a crate of 45s.
We don't use some bog standard hotel music algorithms, just the weird and wonderful records we mix up and play using our Raspberry pi based music server, all recorded from the original vinyl down in the basement.
Check out our events page for details of upcoming parties and events.
We've made a small selection of our favourites on Spotify to get you in the mood...
