Pros: The location is very central, the rooms are nicely decorated and the staff are very friendly.
Cons: Very disappointed that on a two day stay of Tuesday and Wednesday, nothing was open on the Tuesday in the hotel. No bar or restaurant (it does tell you this on the website - but we hadn't noticed it) Then on Wednesday when the restaurant was open we couldn't get a table! On top of that we were in room 1 and when the restaurant is open the extractor fan outside the window keeps you awake. I did expect it to be turned off at some point but it wasn't. When I complained I was offered a free night stay - however I have no intention of returning so took a discount instead. This isn't really a hotel, but more of a restaurant with rooms. We felt completely misled about this being a 5 star property - it is not. We moved to the Fairmont which is a genuine 5 star hotel.

Pros: Breakfast at this hotel is excellent. A range of hot food options and beautifully presented. (I actually had my graduation lunch in this hotel and the food is as good as I remember it to be.) My room had a balcony which was excellent as the weather was good. The furnishings could possibly do with being refreshed although the wooden furniture was really nice. Very rustic and authentic. St Andrews is fabulous to visit. This hotel is right opposite St Salvators Church and Quadrangle (very famous in St Andrews). It is also near the cinema and the Scores. (The West Sands, made famous by Chariots of Fire, can be seen from the Scores). Those wishing to visit St Andrews Cathedral will also find this within easy walking distance!

Ardgowan Hotel is a traditional Georgian townhouse offering spacious rooms, Scottish cuisine and free WiFi throughout. The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews is just a 2-minute walk away. The refurbished en suite bedrooms at Ardgowan Hotel have cosy, traditional decor. Rooms have a TV, tea/coffee facilities and Wi-Fi access. 7 en suite rooms are located directly next door at the Pilmour Hotel, however guest should check-in at the Ardgowan. Playfair's Restaurant and Steakhouse serves fresh local produce in their intimate restaurant which also has an outdoor terrace. In addition to the restaurant, Playfair's Bar is located in the annexe. It serves bar food and drinks daily (bar opened seasonally). The Ardgowan is only a short stroll to St Andrews’ famous Old Course. There is free public parking close by.
The Best Western Scores Hotel is one of the best placed Hotels in St. Andrew’s, closest to the 1st tee of the world-famous Old Course of St. Andrews. Even if golf is not your game, the hotel still proves idyllic as you’re sure to be taken aback by panoramic views of the West Sands and St. Andrews Bay. Just a five minute walk will take you into St. Andrews city center where you’ll be greeted by many of its famous, historic sites. These include St. Salvator’s Church, a 12th century cathedral, a 13th century castle and many of the stunning St. Andrews University buildings (the oldest University in Scotland). Much in line with the historic elegance found in the city center, the hotel itself boasts its own gorgeous Victorian architecture, so there's plenty of the past to take in. The hotel was originally an 1880's townhouse, whilst most of the former drawing rooms are now used as Junior Suites. The hotel has 36 comfortable bedrooms, many of which promise breath-taking views of the West Sands, or overlook the hotels spacious gardens and terraces. With such elegance inside and out, the hotel guarantees a charming and comfortable stay. When dining at the Best Western Scores Hotel you can expect the same impeccable standards seen in the grounds and interior. There are three possible locations to eat at, including a formal and exquisite restaurant and two relaxed and inviting bar areas. No matter where you chose to dine, we guarantee you’ll be greeted by first-class staff. (If you appreciate a recommendation, we’d have to say the lobster served in our restaurant, as it’s the best around.)
