I surprised my husband with a 40th birthday trip to play the Old Course and knew exactly in which hotel I wanted to stay. We spent 3 nights at The Old Course Hotel and had a wonderful time. The rooms are beautiful and well appointed, the beds are comfortable, and the service is great. We did manage to visit the... more

We stayed in a Deluxe Jacques Garcia Designed Suite for 2 nights in early August to celebrate our joint Birthdays. We were slightly apprehensive as this was part of an annual trip to Scotland to visit Family and we normally round of our trip with a stay at Gleneagles but chose St Andrews this year as my husband was playing... more

Stayed one night on a Corporate occassion (The Open Golf). First time in the hotel, it is very smart as one would expect, nice service at reception, very nice rooms and ok decor. Evening Meal - First class food and service, no faults. The room - had one overlooking car park, was very nice but not WOW as you would... more

Living in Glasgow, my wife and I intermittantly travel to 5 star hotels in Scotland for a weekend break. For my wifes birthday, I thought we'd try St Andrews Old Course Hotel. To be honest, it's just okay. The building is frankly ugly- a horrible yellow colour and the interior decor is forgettable. The only time anyone really spoke to... more

Stayed at the Old Course with my Girlfriend as I had been a St Andrews Student and wanted to show her all of my old haunts. Also, as a poor student, this hotel had been the holy grail of decadent luxury and I had always wanted to stay. Bolstered by the fact that it had just won Hotel of the... more

We stayed in this hotel during a May, 2007 four-day golf trip to St. Andrews and neighboring courses. This hotel has clearly been upgraded in many respects since Kohler bought it. However, you may be surprised to learn that not all of the hotel rooms are air conditioned, a fact not made clear on the hotel's website or on other... more

To celebrate my 40th Birthday , my wife booked me a surprise trip to St Andrews which in itself was fantastic. However the experience at the hotel really crowned the trip. From the moment we arriived and were upgraded to a suite which overlooked the road hole , to the check out 3 days later , everything was 1st class.... more

We spent a week in Scotland, staying in small B&B's as well as nice hotels and this was by far the most disappointing experience. It all started when the front desk could not find my reservation. They stated I had a reservation for the following weekend. At first I thought perhaps I booked incorrectly, but I provided them a print... more

Just returned from a 3 night stay with my husband. We had a great time and the hotel can not be faulted. The setting is excellent - we had played with the idea of going to the Fairmont but worried that it was too far out of town (it is) the Old Course is where you would expect it to... more
