Wow, how to make the customer feel unwelcome. I love St. Andrews and this hotel has one of the best sites in the town (with the exception of the Old Course Hotel), but they really need to brush up on their customer service. The bar staff are more concerned with counting the contents of the till rather than serve the... more

I've just returned from a wonderful trip to St. Andrews and was so happy with my hotel choice. The Russell is a 5-minute walk from The Old Course and overlooks St. Andrews Bay. Each morning we awoke to a spectacular view of the Bay and the Links. The rooms were charming and the beds were very comfortable. The hotel has... more

4 couples stayed at Russell Hotel - we had requested Sea View rooms - they were great. Just a few hundred yards from # 1 tee (Old Course). Rooms, bar, food, & staff were all fantastic!! I saw one earlier "bad" review of the Russell Hotel but our experience was just the opposite - will always return to this B... more

Have such good memories of my stay in St Andrews, but it was made all the more amazing by this hotel. The staff are so friendly and helpful, its not a very formal place, it genuinely feels so homey you feel like you have made friends by the time you leave. And can I just say that as someone who... more

We recently stayed in this hotel. The room was small and poorly maintained. The bathroom was extremely difficult to move around in due to its ergonomics. The shower pressure was poor. Also, on checking under the beds to make sure we had not left anything I was met by piles of rubbish, including food waste. The hotel staff were rude... more

We booked this hotel for dinner, bed & breakfast way in advance (August for the December booking) yet when we arrived we were told that instead of our dinner booking in the restaurant they were putting us in the pub! They said this was because they felt we would have a quieter dinner here as they had several parties who... more
