Jim and the staff at the Ardgowan Hotel and the Playfair's Resturant made our stay in St. Andrews extra special. About a block and a half from the Old St. Andrews Golf Course, the Ardgowan is a quaint, yet modern small hotel within walking distance of all the sites. Not only did the Ardgowan enter us in the Old Course... more

The Ardgowan is a clean hotel with a helpful lodging staff in a great location. Very close to the Links and restaurants and shopping. You can walk the whole town from the hotel. With parking, just do the best you can on the street. Recently renovated, it's a modest, comfortable place for the middle-of-the-road kind of traveler, a decent value... more

Stayed here for a Saturday night at the beginning of December. There was 7 in our party, Our room was very modern and clean and finished to a decent standard. I only saw one other room, but that was to the same high standard. The communal areas are all smart and clean too. We had a 3 course meal in... more

Took advantage of a 3 day break in November, 2008 and found it to be really good value. The room was adequate in size, clean and warm and the catering throughout was excellent. Staff were friendly and efficient and nothing appeared too much bother. The Hotel is also well situated between the golf course and the interesting town centre. Well... more

Was a bit concerned after booking the hotel and reading a few reviews about the hotel in previous reviews. All I can say is ignore them and stay here, they must not be use to paying for accomodation in a nice hotel. It was fansatic and I will be staying again. The rooms were nice and clean. Staff were friendly... more

The ardgowan hotel was a great choice for our golf group. The rooms were nice but a little small for the price but you cant beat the location. We walked to the old course each day after a nice hearty breakfast on site. At night the restaraunt doubles for the bar with large screen tv for soccer matches. The food... more

My husband and I found the Ardgowan to be clean, friendly, and reasonable (for St. Andrews that is). Our room appeared to have been decorated within the past few months (someone's been watching the Hotel Inspector)! While the room wasn't large, it was a regular double and was more than adequate. I was somewhat put off by the reviews I... more

The Ardgowan wasn’t my first choice after checking reviews of hotels in the area but after trying a few other places with no luck I booked the small double room, was advised it was smaller than the other double rooms and it was discounted to £100 per night. The room was clean and comfortable but was small as advised and... more
