“Friendly, beautiful and comfortable...”

St. Andrews Golf Hotel

5 of 5 stars
Glasgow, Scotland
Dec 15, 2007

We left for a getaway trip to see St Andrews and have a little holiday for 2 days. I had read on TripAdvisor that this hotel was well recommended and I have to say I have no disappointments.

We stayed in a superior room (Troon I believe), it had a beautiful iew of the sea and it was very nicely fitted and clean. It reminded me of an old tenement with a bed in it. It was one of those joined together beds which I'm not a fan of because you can feel the join in the middle but it certainly wasn't uncomfortable. The bathroom was lovely as well, I don't think you can emphasise a good bathroom enough.

The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful the time we were there. The hotel was very quiet which suited us fine. The lounge and the dining room were always clean and very well staffed but then that could've been reflected by the fact there weren't many people around.

The restaurant was sadly closed when we were there so we didn't get to sample the food in the evening which I'd been looking forward to. The breakfast menu was very ample and even though the buffet wasn't out (again due to the lack of guests) the staff were happy to get anything for us.

Location of the hotel is excellent and it is a short walk to everywhere of interest in St Andrews.

My only complaint would be we didn't get to eat there in the evening, that and our room was a tad cold when we first arrived but it soon heated up.

Overall it was an excellent stay and I think we would definitely go back for another short break and to sample the food (I'd go back for the breakfasts alone). One of the nicest hotels I've stayed at for a long time, I would recommend it to anyone!

“Excellent Food, Great Decor, Excellent Staff”

St. Andrews Golf Hotel

Dec 10, 2007

I've just come back from a weekend at the St Andrews Golf Hotel for my birthday and cannot fault it. The decor is modern without being pretentious, the food excellent and the staff couldn't be more helpful. A great weekend and one I hope to repeat very soon.

“we love the golf hotel”

St. Andrews Golf Hotel

5 of 5 stars
Edinburgh
Nov 27, 2007

We stayed in this hotel for 2 nights and had a wonderful chilled-out time. The room was beautiful - spacious, clean, in good condition, nice decor (no tartan!). The free-standing bath with a view over the sea was a favourite. The staff were warm, friendly and helpful. The restaurant food was lovely. Breakfast is great too - many choices and can be delivered directly to the room.

The hotel is in an extremely handy location, being minutes away from attractions like the cathedral and castle and round the corner from the centre of the town. It has great sea views (and views of the seals in the aquarium!)

A music system in the room would have been good and maybe a bit more of a choice for vegetarians in the restaurant but other than that it was all fab! Go! Obviously its ideal if you like golf but I would strongly recommend a stay here if you just want some relaxing time and a bit of luxury in a picturesque location

“Memorable”

St. Andrews Golf Hotel

5 of 5 stars
Scotland
Oct 29, 2007

A lovely hotel with extremely helpful and friendly staff. We stayed in one of the Junior Suites which was spotless and well decorated, the large bay windows gave us a fantastic view out to the beach. We enquired about room service and they were more than happy to oblige, both mornings our breakfast was delivered within 15 minutes of us calling down and it arrived hot. We dined in the restaurant on the Saturday night and we thoroughly enjoyed the cuisine and service provided. We ended the night in the lounge and again we were impressed with the service we received from the young lady behind the bar, there was a wedding on and everyone was obviously extremely busy but the staff were still extremely attentive to our needs. We would definately stay at this hotel again and would recommend it to any of our friends.
