Stayed in Rusacks for 2 nights in August 09, the staff is very helpful. However, the rooms are a bit small and need a refurbishment. The staff is veryhelpful, lots of channels on tv. However, this is not a luxury hotel and is overpriced. No free internet or carparking! Good if you are going there for golf. more

My husband and I met friends for dinner, none of us having eaten here before. The staff were friendly and very attentive possibly because we were the only poeple in the restaurant at 7-30 on a Saturday night during the Alfred Dunhill championships which at the time was surprising. The menu was interesting but when the starters arrived although delicious... more

We had a great time at the Rusacks celebrating our 1st anniversary. The staff were really nice and helpful. The room was huge (upgraded thanks to Sonja) and very clean. The Views of the beach and the Old Course were amazing. The breakfast was really good and sets you up for the rest of the day. The bunker bar is... more

Just returned from an amazing stay at the McDonald Rusacks in St. Andrews. I booked the family room which was very spacious for myself and two teenagers. We had a beautiful view of the 1st and 18th fairways with distance views of the ocean. It was spectacular. Both the room and the bathroom were spotless. The food in the restaurant... more

This is the second time we have stayed at this hotel and didnt think it could get any better than the first. The staff were fantastic on checking in and remembered us from our last stay which added a personal touch. There are not many hotels these days that actually pay attention to their guests. The room we stayed in... more

I have stayed in 5 Macdonald Hotels this month and this one is the best by far. Fabulously appointed. Wonderful staff (all Scottish!). Excellent rooms. Wonderful breakfast. Luxurious common areas. The hotel is right on the sea front overlooking the old St Andrews golf course. For me, this was the perfect hotel experience and exceeded our expectations. If Macdonald can... more

My trip was with a dozen women golfing friends, our club pro and his wife. We found ourselves in a wide range of accomodations. Some rooms were a dream come true for those who were a single and could look right out at the 1st and 18th holes of the Old Course. Those same rooms were a bit of trouble... more

We booked this hotel with a 50% off vocher that we had received from a previous stay at a Mcdonalds hotel. We arrived expecting that same standard that we had received at the other Mcdonalds hotel only to be disappointed. One of the great attractions of staying at this hotel had to be the location and view, sadly our room... more

There is no denying that the hotel enjoys an excellent location being so close to the historic Old Course. We had excellent rooms which allowed grand stand views of the 1st and 18th holes - the highlight of the hotel. Lunch in the hotel was both overpirced and of poor quality - go to the New Course Clubhouse twice as... more

The entrance, ground floor public rooms and the staircase were well-appointed, bright and spacious. The staff were personable and willing to help. My room was on the inside, overlooking the backs of adjoining properties. It was gloomy, but there seemed to be plenty of lighting. I later discovered that the 7 amp economy bulbs and the opaque lampshades provided little... more
