Old Course Hotel, Golf Resort & Spa in Fife

A must-see if you're interested in golf. A legendary golf course. Beautifully situated by the sea, a true classic. Friendly staff and an interesting history. Definitely recommended for a stopover, followed by another round of golf.

Last night of a boys trip around Speyside on bicycle for a few distillery visits, thought we'd treat ourselves on our way back south. As usual, fabulous experience. Great room, lovely bathroom and comfy bed with luxurious bedding. We spent some time in the on site pub, the jigger inn, where a staff member made space for inside despite the fact we were only having a drink and the place was packed. We ate out for dinner, walking into town across the old course as it was a Sunday and the course was closed. Back from town and a couple of nightcaps at sunset at the road hole bar on the 4th floor. Great drinks and lovely staff with plentiful Japanese Chilli rice crackers to boot! Breakfast in the morning was everything you could want and was full at 7:30am with cyclists / golfers heading out on their days adventures. Hotel stored our bikes for us. Yes, it's expensive but it's a great hotel in a great location, with great staff.

It was just one from my perfect trips (Beautiful resort) Resort team can get 7 stars as minmum Not five

Staff made the stay friendly but professional. The way it used to be before covid

Fabulous Swilcan Loft- best views on St Andrews

Went to the old course for a spa day and lunch, it did not disappoint. Spa facilities are amazing. My massage therapist was so lovely and my treatment was so relaxing, I can't wait to go back, hopefully be back soon.

Incredible hotel amazing service

We recently stayed at the hotel and were extremely disappointed with the service and food standard we received. We ate at the road hole restaurant, which I can only describe from start to finish was shambolic. We ordered the monkfish cheek korma & brown butter pumpkin followed by the scrabster plaice (which I was told after ordering it was sold out but they could offer a crab risotto with sea bream instead) and ribeye steak with bearnaise sauce. The monkfish cheek korma, was certainly not a korma it was a spicy red pepper soup with overcooked monkfish, I only wished I had taken a photo of what the dish looked like at the time however we were there for a birthday celebration and we gave the hotel the benefit of the doubt of one terrible dish. The pumpkin was edible but no frills. Our reservation was at 7pm and after receiving our starters we waited another 1.5hrs for our main course. The wait was definitely not worth it, the crab risotto had a peculiar taste and the sea bream was overcooked, the side of maple glazed heritage carrots were swimming in maple syrup. The bearnaise sauce was quite frankly disgusting, curdled and tasted of oil. The steak was tough and the tomato and mushroom looked like they had been sitting out all day. The service was abysmal no soup spoon, no steak knife and no one asked if we would like another drink during the 1.5hr wait for our main course, we had to flag down a waitress even for a water refill. We left with both main courses untouched and when we returned to our room there was a notice left on our bed pre warning us there is going to be another shambles at breakfast in the morning. So We decided to leave the hotel and go to the Rusacks for breakfast which we throughly enjoyed and would highly recommend and we’re glad we made that decision even though breakfast at the old course was included in our rate as the reception desk on check out was full of guests complaining again of the service and standard of food received at breakfast. The old course hotel was bitterly disappointing, 5 star prices but substandard rooms, very dated, poor service and the food was terrible. The spa was nice but I would suggest staying and eating elsewhere and pay the £40 spa fee if you would like to visit.

Stunning views over the golf course. Beautiful hotel rooms and the showers are incredible!

The Old Course Hotel is a true gem for golf enthusiasts and luxury travelers alike. Nestled adjacent to the iconic Old Course, this resort offers a world-class experience with stunning views, impeccable service, and a range of amenities. From the moment you arrive, you'll be enveloped in an atmosphere of elegance and tranquility.

The Hotel made us feel extremely welcome for a 21st afternoon tea, reserving a lovely space. Service was fab. Unfortunately the afternoon tea itself left much to be desired. There were very few sandwiches, and these were dry at the corners. The deserts were not that great with the exception of the scones and clotted cream.

Amazing view from the Road Hole Restaurant...food excellent and probably the best toilets in the world!

Amazing 2 hour spa experience & lunch in Spa cafe. Superb service.

Great hotel good views even if not golf fans. Staff helpful and friendly

Perfect experience all round from. Nothing to fault. Helpful and friendly staff, quality food, luxury spa services. Room service is 1st class.

Lovely afternoon tea for my partner's birthday at short notice. Excellent views over the course and way too much cake! ❤️❤️❤️

I had the most pleasant stay at the Old course. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable and extremely courteous. They went above and beyond any opportunity they could. The breakfast was delicious, including the best waffle I have ever had. The views of the course are obviously unbelievable. The Swilcan loft dinner was an absolute treat. One of the best hotels I have ever stayed in and worth the spend.
