This is a very nice place with a beautiful garden. The distance to the town is reasonable also for persons who preffer to walk (in fact partly by the path on grass, but it was OK for me).

Excellent downtown location close walking distance to everything you want to see or do in St. Andrews. Free parking in the public lot right next to the Inn, if you're lucky enough to get a spot. Usually, you can if you wait a few minutes for someone to leave. This is a big plus. Large comfortable king-size bed. Good breakfast made to order. The rating is based on the good location, good breakfast, available parking and friendly staff.

Really liked St Andrew. My husband was keen to see the golf course and photos were taken at the 18th hole. He went to the golf museum which he said was very good ! I went upstairs for a coffee and enjoyed the lovely views of the golf course and beach.
The shopping area is good in the town too.
The university accommodation was adequate and a good price for St Andrews.
We had a very nice day there.

This is a great and friendly town, which is very crowded all year around with either students or tourists. It is very clean and a joy to walk around. Worth visiting the town centre on foot and just enjoying the small shops and boutiques as well as the ancient college buildings.
St Andrews is a small town, especially the tourist part and so it shouldn't take more than 2 hours to walk around the entire town and see all its sights. However, give it a day to actually go into all the key tourist attractions. Then just spend time drinking in the ambience of the town.
Its worth the time to explore many of St Andrews back alleys and small lanes and if you got the time, take Lade Braes Walk down to the Botanic Gardens along Kinness Burn (probably 30 minutes from start of walk).
Parking is pretty limited in the town, so best to park in your lodgings and walk in or get a bus (very regular due to student community). Most of the town is at 20 MPH if you do drive and has speed bumps everywhere. Many of the side roads are narrow and if you must park in town, most of the roads have Parking Meters.
Nice beaches near the golf course (West Sands) and below the cliffs (East Sands) although the water is quite cold most of the year around.

This should be on every golfers bucket list.
This should be on every golfers bucket list. You really get into the feel of what links golf is. It's also a University town so lots of students abound but great pubs and restaurants and shopping make for lots to see and do.
Make sure to visit the cathedral ruins (stone from which built the town) and the nearby town of Anstruther for great fish and chips at "The Wee Chippy".

We came up to look at the university.
We came up to look at the university. Arrived later in the afternoon and stayed two nights. We don’t play golf, but walked all around the town giving it a thorough overview, and even had a dip at West Sands. It’s bracing!!! 😳Everyone we met was delightful - engaging and smiling. It felt like we’d stumbled across Brigadoon! An antidote to the troubles we all seem to face on the daily news, the air is clean and fresh, the history palpable.it is a genuine town that embraces its visitors and makes them feel very welcome.

In addition to picture perfect St Andrews, steeped in history and many many happy uni memories, there are lots of pretty towns and villages along the East Neuk coast to explore. We took a boat to Bass Rock on our journey to the Offgrid Hideaway at Cambo, stopping off in North Berwick and squeezing in a walk up The Law to take in spectacular views of Fife. I’d recommend having a bite to eat at The Ship Inn at Elie and the Giddy Gannet in St Monan’s - they have divine cinnamon buns and the best coffee and ambience around, plus sumptuous smoked salmon and bacon sarnies all prepared with friendly professional service. Loved the coastal walk from Anstruther to Cambo Sands. Bought some great handmade oilskin bags and a bespoke hat from the maker at Fabrik in Crail, and discovered a gorgeous bracelet and drawing, both from The Beehive. Lovely walks around Cambo gardens including the incredible walled garden. And no midges!
The place is gorgeous, very tastefully decorated, super comfortable beds, beautiful bathrooms, a wonderful experience overall. We spent the last night of our 1 week trip in Scotland here and, after having seen a series of 4-star accommodations in various places in Scotland,, this was by far our favorite. Needless to say the location is perfect, right on the main street of the town, close to every nice restaurant and shop worth visiting. This place really feels like a home away from home and not a hotel, we loved it.
I loved my stay at the cottage. It was in a great location (once I found it, as sat nav kept saying I had reached my destination at the fairmont hotel. Its the turning after the Fairmont. I used it as a base as my husband is in the community hospital at the moment and it saved me from 2 hours travelling every day. The cottage was lovely and the garden was fab for my two greyhounds. It has everything there that you will need. I may return if my husband is still up there next month (if there is availability. )
Beautiful hotel, so much bigger than I expected. Something for everyone too, lovely lounge bar, Italian restaurant (although we didn't eat dinner in the hotel), sports bar with loads of facilities. Great spa area also, was nice and relaxing
Breakfast was excellent, lots of fresh fruit and portions for yoghurt and toppings which was great
The room itself was much bigger than I thought too, lovely corner bath and everything super clean. Can't wait to return!
Great place to stay for visting town (or university) of St. Andrews. Clean, comfortable, great location, good price & value. Didn't eat here, so I can't speak to that. But quiet and comfortable and clean for sleeping. Also, they're nice about letting you store luggage securely before or after your stay. And location is good for both arriving by bus and walking anywhere in the heart of town.
A very comfortable and welcoming small Hotel with well appointed rooms finished to a very high standard. The breakfast is cooked to order and one of the best I have had anywhere, likewise the evening meals are of a high standard and cooked to order. The Hotel is well situated in the pretty village of Kingsbarns and makes a good base for exploring St Andrews and the East Neuk of Fife.
Breakfast and the staff were excellent. The room was a good size but we had a few issues with the bathroom. The toilet didn't flush (how could this happen in a 5 star hotel) and the shower seal was leaking and spraying water everywhere. The hotel responding very quickly to move us but this experience is more what you'd expect from a 2 star hotel, not the 5 star old course hotel....
The room view was amazing. We stayed in room 507 which overlooked the 18th hole of the Old Course with an ocean view.
The service and staff was immpecible. The hotel supplied golf clubs .It had 3 different restaurants on site from a casual pub, pasta, pizza to an upscale rooftop restaurant. The location was convient to St Andrews and the bus stop. We will be back!
St Andrews is a lovely place to visit.
Hotel location is great within St Andrews- near the shops and main streets
Food is nice. Esp Haggis balls. We had eaten there on a previous visit to St Andrews so thought we would stay this time.
Room was tidy and spacious
St Andrews is not a cheap place to visit, and given the other options, the prices are very fair.
The hotel was lovely. Our room overlooked the 18th Fairway on the Old Course with views over the beach and sea, and towards the Old Course Hotel and Swilkin Bridge. The room itself was spacious and had a massive bathroom. The staff were all polite, friendly, courteous and professional.
The interior was lovely, views amazing beautiful as we looked over the course and water + village a bit. Comfy beds, good showers. Nice staff. Kind & accomodating. Lovely hotel. Would stay and recommend. Staff very helpful with train info etc.
Breakfast was gr8, staff esp Sheryl was gr8 couldn’t do enuf for you, local to Dundee and St Andrews, other guests were lovely and friendly, prices gr8 for golf hotel, heating in room and very clean
The breakfast was wonderful everyday with multiple tasty choices available. The hotel location was perfect and convenient to everything we wanted to do in St. Andrews. Everything was an easy walk.
The breakfast was amazing, the location was even better and the staff were very pleasant and so helpful. We would thoroughly recommend this hotel to anyone else.
