I stayed in a single room at the Albany in early November while visiting my daughter who is a student at the university. The reception assistant at my arrival was extremely helpful and kind helping with a luggage issue I had. On the plus side: the lobby lounge area is nicely decorated, comfortable and pleasant, the breakfast is very good,... More

Very old worn out hotel... More

Great value in an expensive location! Lovely welcome and friendly staff throughout my stay. Comfortable room, lovely breakfast (plenty of choice). Not a "themed" hotel so no huge expanse of tartan or golf!! Super location, outside the pay to park section of the town! No one officious or pestering, a relaxing stay, I will use it again when I next... More

B & B in a great location. Friendly, helpful staff and lovely breakfasts. The hotel is a lovely Georgian building. Small complaints: decor sightly tired, shower not the best ever and the heating was from a wall heater rather than central heating. However, the lovely atmosphere more than made up for these small things and I will definitely return when... More

My husband and I had a both enjoyed our time in the Albany Hotel. Booking the hotel was very easy, and staff very friendly. Was slightly worried as the room was quoted as 'slightly smaller than normal double room', but could not complain. Room was just what we needed for one night stay in St Andrews. Overlooked the garden and... More
