We didn’t see any staff as it was self check in due to the virus at the moment. The room was lovely and so was the view but it is badly needing painted. The walls on the stairs and the rooms have marks all over them and There’s a smell like sewage when you come in the bottom door. Breakfast was delivered in a basket ...croissants, jam, fruit juice, apples and yoghurts. I would not say it was worth £150 For the night !

Pleasant enough stay for one night. The rooms were very small and basic. A few cob webs despite having a deep clean. No WiFi was given despite us sending an email. No one was on site and no facilities were open. They should have waited and opened everything together. Definitely over priced

Hotel is in a great location but do be careful when booking your room. Room 7 should never ever be classed as a double it is so small. No room for a wardrobe or even hanging rail. Only a few hooks fixed to the wall and a few coat hangers. Also a ventilation shaft outside the window was very noisy. I notice now we are not the first guests to make this complaint. This hotel is not cheap so would never stay here again

Good Room, Great Location to St. Andrews GC
We booked 2 rooms for one night at this property, one couple per room. Upon arriving, we parked at the lot at the bottom of the hill along the water. Be sure to pay for a generous amount of time. We were 30 minutes late to the lot and had a ticket for 30GBP. We checked in with the bar and proceeded to our rooms on the upper floors. The rooms were not large, but were comfortable, and the bathroom was a good size as well. Breakfast was in the pub downstairs and had a menu of hot options to choose from as well as fruits and pastries available on a table. It was a decent size breakfast, and no one in the group went hungry.

While our stay was short, we enjoyed the room above the pub (note there is no elevator). No worries for us! Good food and service. Very close to St. Andrews Old Course; in fact you can see the Inn from the course.

Not suitable for the infirm or elderly as there is no lift and awkward stairs. Noise from street could be intrusive but room was clean and hot water supply good. Shame it was spoiled by the juke box being played loudly at 12.30 on the floor below (by staff!!!).

Great location, clean rooms, friendly staff. No elevator, but not too many stairs. You can hear things from the street at night, but it’s not too bad. Make sure to go to the Jigger Inn by the old course hotel for lunch and a Jigger Ale.

Were lucky enough that we booked it in time of "hottest Easter in record", so weather was great. On top of that, room was big, cozy, and with great view! Would recommend this place to everybody!
