Everything is written in stone in regard to this establishment, breakfast time 7.30 am to 9am (no deviation) Not much use to golfers getting an early time on the Old Course or elsewhere. You are supplied with a breakfast bag, which fairly describes it!! Restaurant facilities fine, food good , cannot be said for wine which is overpriced more

The Ardgowan hotel was an excellent place to stay for our golf pilgrimage to Scotland. Jim the Manager helped us with the ballot for the Old Course and from check-in to check-out it was a great experience. The room was clean and bright and spacious and the restaurant and staff were top notch. Easily one of the best things about... more

Jim and the staff at the Ardgowan Hotel and the Playfair's Resturant made our stay in St. Andrews extra special. About a block and a half from the Old St. Andrews Golf Course, the Ardgowan is a quaint, yet modern small hotel within walking distance of all the sites. Not only did the Ardgowan enter us in the Old Course... more

The Ardgowan is a clean hotel with a helpful lodging staff in a great location. Very close to the Links and restaurants and shopping. You can walk the whole town from the hotel. With parking, just do the best you can on the street. Recently renovated, it's a modest, comfortable place for the middle-of-the-road kind of traveler, a decent value... more

Stayed here for a Saturday night at the beginning of December. There was 7 in our party, Our room was very modern and clean and finished to a decent standard. I only saw one other room, but that was to the same high standard. The communal areas are all smart and clean too. We had a 3 course meal in... more

Took advantage of a 3 day break in November, 2008 and found it to be really good value. The room was adequate in size, clean and warm and the catering throughout was excellent. Staff were friendly and efficient and nothing appeared too much bother. The Hotel is also well situated between the golf course and the interesting town centre. Well... more

Was a bit concerned after booking the hotel and reading a few reviews about the hotel in previous reviews. All I can say is ignore them and stay here, they must not be use to paying for accomodation in a nice hotel. It was fansatic and I will be staying again. The rooms were nice and clean. Staff were friendly... more

The ardgowan hotel was a great choice for our golf group. The rooms were nice but a little small for the price but you cant beat the location. We walked to the old course each day after a nice hearty breakfast on site. At night the restaraunt doubles for the bar with large screen tv for soccer matches. The food... more
