Oh dear! We've been going to the Fairmont since it was the St Andrew's Bay and this is the worst experience we have had. Admittedly it is a couple of years since we were there and there have been a few changes - not for the better. There was a wedding on on our day of arrival and it took... More

Stayed over a weekend as my husband had a work related function to attend and we made the most of granny offering babysitting services! Modern and very comfortable surroundings. All the staff were excellent, from the doorman and reception to the cleaners we (including our dog) were made to feel very welcome. Room first class. Food the same. We would... More

Our room was lovely with fabulous views but it was too hot and the thermostat in the room didn't work, eventually managed to wrestle one window open about 1/2 an inch but still uncomfortably hot. Disappointed that they charge extra for water in your room and for water. We have stayed before and used the courtesy bus into St Andrews... More

Always love this hotel. Staff very helpful. Spa treatments expensive but we were treating ourselves. This is the first time I've stayed in summer ? Weather and views were lovely. Had a spacious king room which was really clean and comfortable. The restaurant is quite large and seems a bit impersonal but breakfast was great.

We came here for afternoon tea on a Sunday and so the review is based purely on this as we did not stay the evening. We phoned up on the Sunday and were told they were fully booked by reception but kindly put us through to the restaurant to see if they could squeeze us in (two of us), to... More

Hotel is mostly good with a lovely pool but some annoying factors. Air conditioning couldn't get switched off so a disturbed sleep. Housekeeping not up to par, e.g. Bins not emptied. Quality of bacon and other meat could be improved. There is a sense that it's a shopping mall when eating in downstairs restaurant area. The clubhouse is in a... More

Stayed as a couple for one night over the weekend. It was the 4th time I'd stayed here so I knew what to expect. This is a mega hotel in that it's huge. It's not really in keeping with it's surroundings. Anyway a warm welcome from the doorman who was wearing full highland kit. He helped with the bags and... More
