The close proximity to everything and the owner was very helpful.
The breakfast was unbelievable

Everything was tailored to a comfortable stay. The furnishings were good quality, there were lovely toiletries rather than the wall mounted pump-dispensed shower gel often seen in hotels, the decor was lovely and everything felt fresh. Breakfast was excellent, lots of choice, great coffee, and little touches like jam in jars rather than plastic sachets made my stay at this little boutique B&B feel like a treat.
Just a 1-minute walk from Whitley Bay’s beautiful beach, Sandsides Guest House offers rooms with flat-screen TVs and free WiFi. Guests can enjoy hearty, full English breakfasts.

Whitley Bay is an up and coming town with some lovely shops.
Whitley Bay is an up and coming town with some lovely shops. It also has easy access to Newcastle and the surrounding area by road and by Metro. In the summer Whitley Bay is busy but in the winter it is much quieter.
I have visited this town many times while visiting my daughter. On this occasion my visit was not a holiday; I was helping my daughter to move house.

Whitley Bay is ideally place for walks along the coastal path both North up to Blyth and South down to South Shields and the pretty Souter lighthouse.
Be sure to try to time a visit to St Mary's lighthouse for a spot of seal spotting.
The walks along the promenades down to Tynemouth are all on the level with plenty of eating and drinking options.
If time allows be sure to get the tram into Newcastle Central and the train from there to Durham to visit the marvellous cathedral and castle

I loved the walks along the coast to the lighthouse and to see Spanish City. In the opposite direction it is nice to walk along the coast to Cullercoats and on to Tynemouth. The walks are peaceful and the little shops at Tynemouth are lovely. There are plenty of coffee shops along the way and fish and chip shops if you get peckish. Parking is relatively cheap in Cullerboats but you may need to wait if the car park is busy, for someone to get chatting to.
Great location overlooking the seafront and the bay. A very easy stroll into town and a pleasant walk to Cullercoats and Tynemouth. The friendly staff at the restaurant downstairs allowed us to use their car parking spaces to unload and load the luggage and then we always managed to find a parking space in the streets behind the property. Parking was free with the permit provided. Raymond the host was very helpful with any queries being answered by return. All in all, very good value for money and we would definitely stay there again.
Quite simply the best guest house I've ever stayed in. The whole property is spotlessly clean and Paul and Lee go the extra mile to ensure you enjoy your stay. Always ready to impart their brilliant local knowledge - they are tremendous ambassadors for Whitley Bay and indeed the North East. Breakfast was cooked to order and was fantastic on each of our three mornings as we worked our way through a varied menu. If you're planning a trip to Whitley Bay this property should be your first choice. Thanks for a wonderful visit.
York House is a lovely friendly Hotel.
We will definitely stay again.
We had a lovely walk into Tyneside on the
Coastal walk great views all the way.
The Metro system is very punctual, cheap and makes it easy for people to get around.
We went into a pub in Whitley Bay called "Fat Ox"
It is full of friendly folk, brilliant atmosphere and the staff are the best we have come across, very professional, but find the time to interact with the customers and make the place a fun place to visit.
Stayed 2 nights to enable me to run the Great North Run. Comfortable room in wonderful farm house set in pleasant rural location with super friendly and helpful staff (John & Trish). 3 friendly and well behaved dogs made it feel homely along with the horses and donkey. Plenty of parking space and access to the metro which will take you to the centre of Newcastle and also on a pleasant journey along the coast which is well worth exploring. Very enjoyable stay Thanks David from Bristol.
The location was brilliant and couldn’t have been handier for what we wanted. From our window we had St Mary’s Lighthouse to the left and Spanish City to the right. Our host had sourced some excellent gluten free sausages for us. She is extremely knowledgeable about Tynemouth and Whitley Bay and suggested an Indian restaurant for us which again exceeded expectations. We will definitely make this top our our list of guest houses in Tynemouth.
The location was superb, right next to the beach and a 5 minute walk from the town centre. A perfect base for me and my family whilst visiting our family in Whitley Bay. We took the kids paddle boarding at the neighbouring Cullercoats beach. Highly recommended! The hotel was clean and the beds comfortable, thank you for the warm welcome and thank you for a lovely stay! We’ll be back next time!!
Everything was perfect for our one night stay in Whitley Bay. Very warm welcome from Paul & Lee. From the really comfy bedding, to the good selection of toiletries in the ensuite, from the biscuit selection to the local recommendations for where to eat and drink, our stay at the Metropolitan was excellent. Great location for train station and for making the most of the delights of Whitley Bay.
Fantastic location, really good rate for a night's stay. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Cheapest hotel in Whitley bay, decor is a little tired and dated, but really can't complain due to the price. If you want to cut costs right down to explore the area and aren't fussed on decor then its fine
The hotel is in a great location for the beach and not too far from whitley bay town centre. The breakfast was fabulous and the breakfast staff were very efficient too. I was lucky enough to get free parking out the front too. These things in mind this was good value for money.
Our second visit was just as good as the first one. It's the perfect place with a young child and the location is great, so close to all the Whitley Bay amenities yet distant enough to enjoy the countryside and starry nights. The 3 dogs were as adorable as ever.
Staff were amazing nothing to big or small. Very polite. Great value for money, location was ideal as everything you need is on your doorstep. Room was comfortable, spacious & very clean. Would recommend this hotel & would definitely be going back
Really enjoyed our stay, really lovely hotel, very comfortable and extremely clean, very welcoming and friendly staff, great location, breakfast was excellent....if we are ever in the area again I won't be looking for anywhere else to stay.
Hotel was handy to walk down to the sea front. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Breakfast had a really good choice and served hot. Room was clean even though the carpets were a bit rough round the edges.
Staff were polite and attentive, you can't beat the Geordie charm, central location with parking available, right next to the beach,comfy bed and decent breakfast, close to Tynemouth aswell.
Spotlessly clean, with all the comforts of home, close to a beautiful beach, good eateries, and bars, with the Metro to Newcastle, just 10 minutes walk away.
