Traveler Reviews on St. Andrews

Inn at Lathones

5 of 5 stars
Strathclyde
Dec 1, 2008

I booked a weekend at Lathones as a surprise for my husband's 60th birthday. I was drawn to the hotel as it appeared to be unstuffy, comfortable and a little out of the ordinary. This impression turned out to be accurate. I loved the mix of styles, the olde worlde bar area was in complete contrast to the very modern... more

Fairmont St Andrews

Nov 25, 2008

We stayed here for two nights in late October. A large hotel with a great drive up to the front door. The day we arrived it was windy and could not wait to try the facilities. Our room had a view of the water but what a noise from the wind it whistled all the time and it was hard... more

Rufflets Country House

Nov 25, 2008

We picked this hotel based on what we read on tripadvisor, as we had to be in St Andrews on business. The hotel, even in winter, was lovely. The gardens were peaceful, the open fires warm and welcoming, excellent food etc but the thing that makes this place stand out from the crowd was the attitude of the staff. It... more

Ardgowan Hotel

4 of 5 stars
Penicuik Scotland
Nov 24, 2008

Took advantage of a 3 day break in November, 2008 and found it to be really good value. The room was adequate in size, clean and warm and the catering throughout was excellent. Staff were friendly and efficient and nothing appeared too much bother. The Hotel is also well situated between the golf course and the interesting town centre. Well... more

Rufflets Country House

5 of 5 stars
New York, NY
Nov 23, 2008

I generally lower my expectations in regards to a hotel slightly as the photos you'll find online and the reviews by web sites and travelers are not always accurate. I can honestly say this hotel exceeded my expectations in every way, as it was much more beautiful than I had anticipated, and the care was definitely that of the highest... more

Greyfriars Hotel

2 of 5 stars
aberdeen, scotland
Nov 18, 2008

Excellent location for exploring St Andrews and we managed to get a space in the free car park beside the hotel - but then this was November! Paid a little extra for a "superior" room - 213 on the 2nd floor. Nice, spacious room. We ate in the hotel that night which was reasonable in price but not great quality... more

Fairmont St Andrews

0/2 found this review helpful

Very nice hotel, although you can tell it's built based on a US design - there are no such hotels in Scotland... if you know what I mean. It'd be more natural situated in Arizona or something. The layout and space is very nice. The bar and restaurant are also very good, even if the service lacks a bit -... more

Fairnie House

Nov 16, 2008

Although Fairnie House is a solid Georgian building (close to the ruined Abbey and castle), it has a light contemporary feel inside. Our high-ceilinged, spacious, bedroom was pleasingly furnished in light woods and had all the conveniences (TV etc.) that we could possibly want. The en-suite bathroom also fitted the bill and was spotlessly clean with pleasing modern fittings. It... more

Struan Bed & Breakfast

Nov 15, 2008

The Struan is an excellent B&B. Stayed for 2 nights and had a really relaxing weekend. The house is lovely with a large lounge and bedroom both beautifully decorated. Coral was a great host - she really has thought of everything: fresh flowers, a wee dram etc. Breakfast was fantastic, fresh fruit, cereal, croissants & full Scottish breakfast. We have... more

Cambo House, Cambo Estate

4 of 5 stars
London
Nov 14, 2008

We had a wonderful stay at Cambo House. Invited there for a wedding, it was an unexpected bonus to find such a great place for a visit. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The house is very interesting but it is the grounds that were really brilliant for our four year old who particularly loved feeding the pigs. Another... more

Cambo Estate Gardens

Nov 11, 2008

We visited the garden when staying in Cambo's s/c cottages - what a find! It truly is like The Secret Garden even down to the robin who was flitting about us all the time we were in the glass house. This is the kind of walled garden to die for, if it were possible to own something like this and... more

Cambo House, Cambo Estate

Nov 11, 2008

We had heard of Cambo and its snowdrops in the spring so when a friend's daughter started at St Andrews Uni and we realised just where Cambo House was we booked Mid Cottage for Mon - Fri break. What a find!!! As someone else said, if all s/c accommodation was like this you'd never need another hotel! We had a... more

Cambo House, Cambo Estate

Nov 10, 2008

A get away from it all experience, beautiful estate near to the beach and golf course. Lovely staff and eager to make us feel at home. A cold week was warmed by a lovely log fire. Our family stayed in the lower servants and the decor and atmosphere reflected the period of the house. Well recommended and would definitely stay... more

Drumoig Lodge Hotel

Nov 10, 2008

I booked one night b&b and 2 nights db&b at what I thought was a nice golf resort for my husbands birthday. Started off waiting 10mins at reception for someone to appear, rang bell 3 times and phoned them! Lady eventually appeared with no apology, gave us key for room and sent us on way. Room was freezing, so had... more

Nethan Guest House

5 of 5 stars
Long Island, NY
Nov 9, 2008

This recently refurbished B & B is done all in creams and whites, making the House a pleasure to come "home" to at the end of the day. Our room and the public areas were all sparkling clean and there was a towel warming rack in our private (en-suite) bathroom. A full breakfast was included in our rate, which included... more

Aslar Guest House

london
Nov 9, 2008

We stayed in St Andrews at this Guest House for a night at the beginning of our honeymoon, and were not disappointed. The room was a good size with high ceilings and huge windows. which gave the room a naturally light and airy feel. The bed was a good size and there was even room for a small sofa to... more

Russell Hotel

5 of 5 stars
Needham, MA
Nov 7, 2008

A truly delightful hotel -- well run, friendly staff and ownership, comfortable rooms with character, a relaxing pub, and great food. Oh, and the location couldn't be better! My wife and I chose the Russell while visiting our son, a second-year student at the University. Because of my logistical slip, we had one room for the first night, and a... more

Hoppity House

5 of 5 stars
Co.Antrim N.Ireland
Nov 5, 2008

This just has to be the best B&B I have ever stayed in. Gordon and Heather were very friendly, the room was fresh and spotlessly clean and the location was perfect. The fridge was well stocked with more than enough food for breakfast and there was fresh fruit and cereals, tea (with teapot) and coffee (with cafetiere). The bathroom was... more

St. Andrews Golf Hotel

Nov 2, 2008

Stayed for 2 nights. I thought the location of the hotel very good especially if you are up to play golf. The public areas are good especially the cocktail bar and outside terrace although in Oct we did not use the terrace as the weather was awful. I booked a superior room which cost £200 per night with breakfast. I... more

Nethan Guest House

5 of 5 stars
Jersey, Channel Islands
Nov 2, 2008

A very "warm" welcome by Brian & Linzi of the Nethan Guest Hosue as we were visiting to see the University of St Andrews. Rooms have all been recently renovated, with en suite shower / toilet and flat screen TV, free internet etc. Excellent breakfast before heading off for the tour. Great for easy access to the Uni, and surrounding... more
