Disliked: Amenities
Spa is no longer available without purchasing a treatment. We booked and paid way too much to not have this offered any longer due to new ownership. No AC meant windows had to stay open allowing bees and wasps inside and very loud due to traffic and birds. Our room was located across the street and on the 3rd level with no assistance with luggage up a tight spiral staircase.

A bit pricey but a nice stay

We booked last minute for St Andrews so this was one of the few properties left that had an opening. It was a little more expensive than I would have liked to pay, but the room was big and the bed was comfortable (albeit a bit on the small side for two people). We were in their other building across from the main hotel. There were a lot of stairs which was fine for us but could be an issue for others. The parking situation wasn’t ideal. There were apparently free spots somewhere but they were never open so we had to keep feeding the meter during our stay (be sure to have coins!). The hotel is on one of the main streets so on one of the nights it got a bit noisy. The included breakfast was pretty decent. All in all probably one of the nicer hotels in St Andrews.

Location

Really nice hotel. We were in the annex across the road but the very helpful receptionist took us over to our room. Room was huge as was the bathroom which had really nice toiletries. Breakfast in the main hotel was really good with freshly cooked items fresh fruit pastries and lots more. I would return to this hotel

Excellent location. Clean and comfortable. I really enjoyed my stay. My one quibble is that the front desk was not present when trying to check out early in the morning. Breakfast was delicious. Overall I had a very positive experience.

staff lovely& breakynice butdangerously low ceilin

Staff were lovely and accommodating, nothing too much trouble. Excellent breakfast options and very tasty. I would not recommend staying top floor in the annex to anyone with walking difficulties or even those who can’t manage steep steps. The room layout with the windows and low slopping ceiling meant my partner cut his head open and I bumped mine too but was only bruised. Only one chair at the table where coffee machine was and this was broken - so was disappointing.
