My husband and I stayed at the Old Course Hotel for 1 night after attending a wedding reception. I must say that our room was stunning, the service beyond excellent and the icing on the cake was the perfectly cooked breakfast delivered to our room hot and exactly on time. All staff were extremely friendly and polite and very helpful.... More

My partner and I have stayed in the Old Course Hotel on 6 different occasions and we love it! The staff are lovely especially the concierge who will never pass you without saying hello. I would recommend the spa to everyone, we use it on every visit, it hosts a swimming pool, hydrotherapy pool, sauna, steam room, roof top jacuzzi,... More

Popped in for a coffee as it was an extremely cold day and we thought we would treat ourselves. We sat in the library which was very cosy. That's where the experience went downhill as no-one came to take our order as promised by the receptionist, for what seemed like ages. We asked for three coffees and one glass of... More

The massage was wonderful, the spa and hot tub on the roof fantastic, the bedroom (and view of the iconic Old Course) outstanding but the entire experience was marred by poor service and terrible food in Sands restaurant. There were only 8 people dining in the entire restaurant the evening we ate there yet the wait for service, drinks and... More

My husband recently took me here for one night for my birthday. It was a surprise and I have to admit that my initial thoughts when seeing the enormous modern building were mixed. However the minute we set foot inside those feelings changed. The service was amazing! We don't normally stay in hotels like this and were made to feel... More
