Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The gentleman at desk when we checked in was very helpful making sure we had found a place to park and bringing us in through a back entrance closer to elevator. Room was clean and comfortable with a couch and mini kitchen -more than we needed or expected. The bowl of seafood chowder we enjoyed on the front porch was a delicious end to a long day. A lovely Inn in a charming seaside town. We'd stay again if we are ever back that way.

We had a great time. The staff was great. Our room was ok. The age showed but it was clean and very comfortable. They had an amazing balcony you could sit at in the 2nd floor that over looked the main road. Also, the restaurant was great. Our meals were very good.

Very beautiful setting on the bay right in the heart of the village. Welcoming staff. Unfortunately the rooms, although clean, are just so outdated and in need of updates. Shag carpet, flattened down that no amount of vacuuming can revive. Dated tv with little to no channels to access. Cost per stay does not equal a room so out of date.

Had to cancel my reservation the day of due to an emergency and asked for a partial or full refund, they gave me the standard robotic answer that per their policy no refunds for same day cancellations. Thanks for your empathy and will never come back there.

Kennedy house is central and walkable to most of the sites and things to do in Saint Andrews. We met Mo who manages the house as well as pouring a pint or making a delicious cocktail. He shared the history of the place and made us feel very welcome. The place is clean, quiet and easily accessible. We definitely recommend staying here as we plan to next trip there!!

We enjoyed our stay at Kennedy House. Friendly and helpful staff. Unfortunately, we left three articles of clothing behind when checking out. We contacted the hotel manager and he kindly arranged to have the items mailed to us. Excellent customer service.

The room was large, sper clean and overlooked the harbour and main street. It's a very old hotel and could use some updates, particularly lighting and curtains. The restaurant downstairs was lively with an entertainer that evening. Food was very good. Overall, good but not great value.

We liked the location and how it was so close to everything on Main Street. We were very disappointed with our check-in. The gentleman ( that wears a hat) was not a bit welcoming and acted like we were a nuisance to him. He was very short with us when we checked in. We did have a chance to speak to the owner of the hotel at one point during our stay. He was very friendly and we had a great chat with him about the history of his hotel and upcoming renovations.
