Rufflets St Andrews

Lovely hotel and surrounding, very convenient location. Some suggestions for improvement - We found the washroom setup perplexing - it was so small and it seemed the hotel disliked giving its guests hooks for hanging wet hand towels. The water pressure from the shower head was also miserably slow and it took forever to get our hair clean. Finally it’s the toilet flush - it was so hard to flush the waste. It’s pretty disgusting to find waste still floating around no matter how hard or long one tried to press / hold the flush button… 🤢

Love the hotel! Nice and neat, staffs are friendly! Strong recommend! Breakfast is good

Nice feel to this hotel. The staff were very good and helpful. The food was excellent. The lodge we stayed in was a little tired but clean and pleasant enough. Overall we had a nice stay.

Stay in Rufflets Hotel, St Andrews (27-30th Apr 26) for quick break. Good Stuff: Hotel in beautiful surroundings just approx 30mins walk from centre of St Andrews. Beautiful gardens to explore and plenty of free parking for car. Staff all pleasant (though service sometimes slow, possibly due to being understaffed for hotel size). Bedroom good size with added touches of coffee/tea facilities, bottled water and shortbread, which were all replenished daily. Bathroom spacious and added bonus of freestanding bath (which my wife appreciated) and separate shower cubicle with quality towels, body gel, shampoo etc. Extra touch of hooks on doors (always something I look for) to hang up outdoor coats was appreciated; the number of Scottish 5-star hotels I have stayed in that do not do this is amazing. In a country prone to regular rain showers where do they expect you to put your wet coats 😫 I have been forced in past to hang on back of chairs or over top of doors (though not an issue on this occasion) Bad Stuff: Stayed in Room 36 and we found the bed to be a bit soft for our liking and view was it had seen better days. The bathroom although tastefully decorated was looking a bit tired and wallpaper coming loose unnecessarily in several place (a bit of paste and 10mins would sort this). The shower ceiling was also crumbling in several areas and certainly looked unsightly and not expected in a 4-Star hotel. Quality of restaurant food was very disappointing and again expected better.

Rufflets was our favorite stay out of five different hotels in the UK. The whole experience was incredible! The staff is so wonderful and welcoming, the bar was cozy, and the breakfast was delicious. My family all agrees that this is the one hotel we want to go back to!

Everything about this hotel is amazing. Cleanliness, friendly staff, food. Could not complain about anything.

The room was large and well kept, the bathtoom though updated had plaster peeling from the ceiling (If the fan had its own switch/supply instead of needing the lights to be on for it to run this could help). The main hotel was well maintained .Staff very friendly and helpful.
