Reviews for Rufflets, St. Andrews
Stayed here last week and really enjoyed the 2 days . Excellent service from Craig and his colleagues.
Brilliant service , food , room and location - only 7 minutes in a taxi to the centre of St Andrews . We ate in the hotel night 1 then at the best restaurant ( Little Italy ) night 2 .

Good evening meal but other areas very poor
We stay at the Rufflets for one night last week after hearing good reviews from friends and family. Our evening meal in the dining room was very good as was the service by the waiter, he was attentive and good company. However unfortunately the rest of the hotel let our trip down. We waited over 30 minutes in an empty bar after ordering our drinks to receiving them. The decor in this bar area was more of a care home atmosphere, mix matched old furniture burgundy walls with light blue curtains. The waitress offered an apology when the drinks arrived but was very curt and uninterested. Luckily we had been early enough for dinner by this point or we would’ve been late for our reservation. We then upgraded our room to one at the gatehouse. On first impression the room looked nice however it was the worst soundproofing I’ve experienced. You could hear every movement and mumbling next door making our dog very unsettled and not allowing us to relax. The room was also dirty with large amounts of mould on the shower hose and head, wallpaper peeling and leaky ceilings. Breakfast was unfortunately not the quality of food we received the night before. For my eggs royale one of my poached eggs were soft and the other solid, makes you question how fresh they were. My husbands full breakfast was very sparse with the scrambled eggs being the worst we have ever tasted, almost gritty. We tried to find a manager and check out to no success so left feeling very disappointed and ripped off

Quality
This is a quality hotel and is very competitive price wise. The rooms are of a high standard and the views are beautiful. The food served in the restaurant is exceptional and the sofas in front of the fire is the perfect ending to your day. There is also a reading room, function room and a very nice bar with lovely sofas. The gardens are amazing and I’m told there is a path that runs along the burn that takes you into St Andrew’s although I’ve not done this yet. A taxi into the town centre is £7-10 so well worth staying outside the busy town if you’re after a peaceful break. It’s just perfect.

Stayed in one of the cottages
Wonderful accommodation. We were here for two nights. Our cottage was clean and stocked with water, coffee, tea and biscuits. The bed was so comfortable and the shower nice and strong. Great breakfasts. Had dinner here too. Everything was excellent including the service. We both had the mushroom soup to start. So delicious with a nice, thick slice of bread. I ordered the Bratwurst (excellent) and my husband had the flank steak, medium rare. The steak was cooked perfectly and the triple cooked chips were crunchy on the outside and soft and hot on the inside. Nothing to complain about here except wished we could have stayed longer!

Overnight bed breakfast ad dinner
Itison overnight bed breakfast and dinner for a birthday treat. We enjoyed our stay although problems with understaffing for service in bar.
