Rusacks St Andrews

Perfect to holf location.History.

Iconic and well placed. Weird smell in hall and room closets.

Very good overall. Shower temperatures need to be able to be set warmer and stronger.

Thoroughly enjoyed our 2 nights stay. Staff very friendly, room very spacious, views over Old Course fantastic and first class breakfasts.

The hotel is beautiful but I had some issues. I made contact with the hotel to make them aware and received an apology. I was not happy with something said at check-in, my shower handle came off and wardrobe door handle too. These were not fixed. The noise from upstairs, fridge and people banging on the hall way door prevented me sleeping. I had issues ordering breakfast due to a lack of menu in the room and reception not knowing what I could have. My room was lovely other than what I mentioned above, the majority of the staff were friendly and the food good. I loved the smell of the coal fire every time I went to the reception area! I just expected better from a 5 star hotel. I would not return at full price as I don’t trust that I wouldn’t have a similar experience.

This place was absolutely beautiful. The rooms are stunning an the beds are so comfortable

Lovely hotel & staff, the hotel and bedrooms are full of character.

Hotel was great and staff and amenities superb

Wonderful

Loved our stay at the Rusacks. Thr room was beautiful and spacious with amazing views over the golf course and beach. Could relax in our room for hours. I had the most comfortable sleep even the pillows were a dream. The staff were all friendly, polite and welcoming. Would highly recommend going at Christmastime. The location is ideal close to the beach and the town. Thank you for a wonderful stay

I brought my husband here for his birthday and to play at St Andrew’s. The team at Rusacks made it such a memorable stay for us. They were very warm and welcoming from the offset and gave us a tour of facilities and a walk through of the grounds. They even had great quality clubs to lend him for his game. We were treated with a bottle of champagne to celebrate and a bag of treats for our pup. The room was beautiful with a great view of the old course. My husband was a big fan of the man sized towels and robes which many hotels miss out on. 5/5 would stay again thanks to the great team there!

Great location in one of the most picturesque villages in Scotland. The 18th hole is just outside the back door and the road hole is right there too. Great for a peaceful early morning walk, even if you aren't a golfer. The stroll down the street along water to the ancient cathedral is a beautiful walk as well. Overall the food, location and room were first rate and some of the best accommodations we had in our week in Scotland.

My family and I loved our stay here! The rooms were so beautiful and the views we had of the golf course were lovely, perfect for the golfers in our family! The staff were very friendly and were always ready to help us or answer any questions we had. We had a wonderful time!

We had no hot water but the staff could not have been nicer and moved us to a lovely room.

Loved this Hotel . Great location friendly staff beautiful room

Truly one of the best hotel stays. Our room was great with views over the 18th fairway of the Old Course at St Andrews. Staff were super friendly and helpful. A real golfers paradise.

Excellent hotel and location Quite pricey for the size room and slightly low service level.

This was a special event for my wifes birthday. It didn't feel at all special, birthday requests were ignored. The room was overlooking a service yard, bins and bottle noise was bad. However we were in an old part of the hotel. The room was very cold and the sound insulation was non existent. The staff however enthusiastic were all teenagers and there seems to be little senior management. On our arrival, we asked if it was necessary to book the restaurant, the reply was it was not. We arrived at 20, 00 and they said to come back at 8.45pm, when we did we were told the kitchen was closed. After some discsions, we were shown a table, we were served 21.30. My worst experience was the car valet, 35 per night, but my beautiful Bentley whizzed passed passed me twicet outside the hotel at speed, i crossed to the other sidebodbthe road and he sped past me, before being left on a zebra crossing on the zig zag lines ( an arrestable office). This was a 550 GBP per night room, it fell very short of all of my expectations. Old Course or Fairmont, both of which i have stayed before, better all-round and much better value. For info, I am a very frequent traveller, I almost never post reviews, but this location needs to be highlighted on this occasion. Poor show.

This has to be the place to stay in St Andrews. Our room was extremely comfortable and overlooked the 18th fairway. Lots of shopping, dining, and cocktail options nearby. Breakfast was superb.
