    cozy restaurant
    steep stairs

    Perfect spot for a getaway!

    Had an awesome stay! The room was super spacious and comfy, and breakfast was tasty with good options. Enjoyed the cozy vibes at the restaurant for dinner. that steak special was a steal! A bit of a trek up the stairs to our room, though, so keep that in mind if you're not into climbing. Still, totally worth it!

    great value
    excellent dining

    It was just a good match for a short staycation in St Andrews with fantastic value for money. The nearby Playfairs Restaurant had outstanding meals that I truly enjoyed. Make sure to explore the local shops and attractions around the area.

    Excellent location with cozy atmosphere

    I recently stayed for one night and was impressed by the warm and inviting reception staff, who made me feel right at home. The location was truly ideal, just a short walk to many attractions. My room was small but beautifully decorated and well-maintained, though I did find the noise from the street a bit distracting at times.

    delicious breakfast
    cozy fireplace
    spotty wi-fi

    Had a lovely 2-night stay in a Classic King Room where I really enjoyed the delicious breakfast and the cozy fireplace in the lobby. The hotel offers great options for relaxation like a nice garden and a chill lounge area. Just a heads up, though, the Wi-Fi was a bit spotty at times, but it didn't ruin my overall experience. 😊

    cosy room
    attentive staff
    maintenance issue

    comfortable rooms but maintenance needs attention

    Our Junior Twin Room was exceptionally cozy with a charming decor that made us feel at home. The staff's quick response to our issues was commendable, especially how they handled the towel rack problem, ensuring we had an alternate room for a comfortable second night.

    The towel rack in our bathroom caused the room to become uncomfortably warm before it was resolved.

    excellent location
    spacious room
    good breakfast
    dated bathroom
    time limitations

    The stay was primarily for business meetings in St Andrews. I appreciated the hotel’s excellent location, making it convenient for meetings and local attractions. The room was spacious and comfortable, though the bathroom could use some updating. Breakfast was good, offering a nice selection, but be prepared for time limitations during peak hours.

    spacious family room
    sea views
    delightful dining experience
    overly warm room

    We had a marvelous stay with a spacious family room boasting stunning sea views and a delightful dining experience at the restaurant. The hotel offered relaxing opportunities by the cozy lounge and the outdoor terrace, perfect for unwinding. The only hiccup was that our room got a bit too warm for comfort, even with the window open, so maybe a fan would’ve helped. 😊

    central location
    beautiful beaches
    well-stocked bathroom
    dark and small room

    Had a blast with friends exploring local attractions! We checked out the Old Course and spent a lovely day at the beautiful beaches nearby. The en-suite bathroom was well-stocked, perfect after a long day outdoors. Such a central location made it easy to visit the many shops and cafes in the area.

    Our room was a bit dark and small, making it feel cramped. We had trouble with noise from the extractor fan that started early in the morning, which affected our relaxation.
