Anonymous, Jul. 2022

Good choice for my group of three friends. Pretty good location, even with local construction (no noise on our Sunday stay). Several places to eat. Great walking to town and Royal Mile. Mile walk from St Andrews tram stop is tough with luggage. Really good breakfast. Friendly, helpful staff (we asked in the evening for a taxi next morning). Our room was ready for check in midday. For those who have mobility issues, this is not accessible: lots of stairs, narrow winding hallways, step into bathroom and big step without aid into tub. Do recommend otherwise.

Opt for a Room in the Main Hotel Building

Some guests found the annex rooms to be noisy due to plumbing and slamming doors, so consider booking a room in the main hotel building for a quieter stay.

Consider Bringing Earplugs

A few guests mentioned that the room walls were thin, leading to disturbances from noisy neighbors. Packing earplugs could help ensure a peaceful night's sleep.

Check Room Configuration

If you prefer a double bed without a gap, it's advisable to confirm the bed configuration with the hotel before booking, as some guests encountered issues with double beds being two singles pushed together.

Explore Nearby Dining Options

While the hotel has a restaurant and bar, guests recommended trying the various nearby bars and cafes for a diverse dining experience.

Pack Light for Annex Rooms

Guests staying in the annex noted that there were quite a few stairs to access the rooms and no lift, so consider packing light for easier maneuvering.

Utilize the Kitchen Facilities

If staying in the apartments, take advantage of the kitchen facilities provided, including a fridge, microwave, and cutlery, for added convenience during your stay.

Consider the Apartment Layout

Some guests found the apartment layout to be lacking a comfortable sitting area for groups, so if communal space is important, inquire about the layout before booking.

Plan for Limited Room Lighting

A few guests mentioned that the room lighting felt low due to dim bulbs, so bringing a small travel light could be beneficial for reading or working in the room.

Check for Room Heating

In some cases, guests experienced issues with heating in the rooms, so it's advisable to confirm the heating situation with the hotel, especially during colder months.

Take Advantage of the Underfloor Heating

Guests staying in family rooms appreciated the underfloor heating, which added to the overall comfort of the room.
