Royal & Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews

Breakfast was great.

Advertised as a boutique 4* hotel but is not. Very good: ease of booking Good: parking, location Adequate: the cooked breakfast was hot and the eggs poached well. The 4 poster bed was a nice feature. Below par: very limited breakfast options, and the need to decide the night before is very odd and burdensome. The business is in effect a mediocre B&B within a grand old Edinburgh sandstone house - which needs a deep clean and ver considerable repair/refurbishment. Windows are single glazed, have rotten frames and are wedged permanently open so there is a lot of sound pollution from ambulances outside. Bathroom fixtures and fittings old and need upgrading. Overall a mediocre experience

Very helpful staff and service
