Before booking we had checked Trip Advisor and things looked positive. The 2012 Trip Advisor certificate of excellence was prominently displayed as well. This together with the £140 price for an overnight stay should have been enough to guarantee a good stay. With a price tag in this range you expect the premises to carry a certain amount of gravitas.... More

I stayed here for two nights while attending a conference in St Andrews. I got a room overlooking the road. I had requested for a family room and got a double bed and a single bed. The room was clean, neat and well equipped. I particularly liked the toilet. The room was airy and bright. There was a flat screen... More

Stayed one night. The room was small but very comfortable. Enjoyed the stay but with breakfast over at 9:15 an extra sleep wasn't an option. Much too early in my book. Shame really as everything else was good.

I can't fault this charming and cosy hotel. I was in room 5 and it was lovely - well equipped and very cosy (fluffy towels and a thick duvet) with a view over the courtyard. The breakfast was great - generous portions and the staff were friendly and very accommodating. My poached eggs were done perfectly. The reception staff were... More

This is a charming, quaint B and B in the heart of St. Andrews, on "B & B Row". There are several things that set this one apart from the pack, though. First, the owners are unusually kind and gracious; the small but cozy sitting room has a homey gas fire going; the rooms are large and well-equipped- unusually so-... More

My wife and I, at short notice, booked a room. Pleasant, well communicated process which led to a highly satisfactory 1night stay. Clean, fresh (painter at work), comfortable, centrally-located establishment. Staff first class. Breakfast had everything you would want and, although busy, staff coped very well. We would return without hesitation - a lovely experience!
