Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Fairmont St Andrews, Scotland Hotel from previous guests about their experience
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Fairmont St Andrews is frequently praised for its spacious and luxurious rooms and bathrooms, offering a relaxing experience near St Andrews. Guests often highlight the excellent breakfast, although some have noted occasional queues. The hotel boasts a well-equipped fitness suite, spa, swimming pool, and fantastic wine selection; it is a beautiful place for relaxation with lovely grounds and convenient access to the town centre via a shuttle service. While most enjoyed the stay, a few guests were allocated a specially equipped room, arranged for disabled people, that wasn't a good match for them.
