這家酒店出乎意料,車子剛到門口心裏一咯噔,感覺完全不是國內的那種概念,進去了才發現原來別有洞天,衞生非常乾淨,房間也很大,用品都很不錯,本身應該是個大莊園,非常漂亮,餐廳非常好,比聖安鎮上的法餐廳口味做的好,出品非常精緻,口味也好,員工太友好了,非常棒的體驗

Wonderful accommodation. We were here for two nights. Our cottage was clean and stocked with water, coffee, tea and biscuits. The bed was so comfortable and the shower nice and strong. Great breakfasts. Had dinner here too. Everything was excellent including the service. We both had the mushroom soup to start. So delicious with a nice, thick slice of bread. I ordered the Bratwurst (excellent) and my husband had the flank steak, medium rare. The steak was cooked perfectly and the triple cooked chips were crunchy on the outside and soft and hot on the inside. Nothing to complain about here except wished we could have stayed longer!

Itison overnight bed breakfast and dinner for a birthday treat. We enjoyed our stay although problems with understaffing for service in bar.

A great stay - coming back after many years - beautiful property and location. Dinner in the restaurant is a must and do enjoy St Andrews itself

We were looking forward to visiting this hotel again but we were very disappointed with our couple of days. The good points. Reception and dining room staff were really nice and couldn’t have been more helpful. Nice large room with a very comfortable bed. Nice grounds for a stroll after dinner. The bad points. We had to wait over half an hour for our bacon and eggs on both days and the dining room was not very busy. We left our room at 9.30 on our second day and returned at 14.00 to find that the room had not been made up. We advised reception but after a wait of over 2 hours it was still not available. We had intended eating at the hotel but gave up and went into town to eat. On returning home I emailed my complaints to the hotel, I am still waiting for any acknowledgment .

We had a most enjoyable afternoon tea at Rufflets. Warmly welcomed, we were shown to our table by a very polite trainee waitress. We didn't have long to wait for the food and speciality tea -- Rufflets 50th anniversary blend. One small groan: insufficient parking spaces made worse by inconsiderate parkers taking up too much room. Apart from that it was a lovely place to visit and enjoy. Special mention: Sam our waitress was superb.
