Reviews for Rufflets, St. Andrews
Beautiful stay at Rufflets Hotel
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the beautiful Rufflets Hotel. Our family-sized suite was large and had incredible views of the property. The quaint dining room offered a plentiful breakfast with great service. There is lots of property to walk and enjoy including the areas where they grow their own produce/tea/hops. The homemade shortbread in our room was so delicious too!

Friendly, Intimate, Five-Star Service
Rufflets is a superb, small hotel located a 20-minute walk (or five-minute drive if you prefer) from the centre of St Andrews. The decor is stylish, the (extensive) gardens beautiful, the dinner menu choices extensive and the bar drinks range absolutely what you would expect from a quality hotel in Scotland. The staff are without fail friendly and helpful; and the kitchen clearly works to very high standards, producing some truly memorable dishes. Overall I highly recommend this place.

Staff member praise
Was recently at the hotel with my partner and our experience was 100/10. All the staff were fantastic but Kaitlyn in particular was second to none. The attention to detail, her friendly and bubbly personality, her willingness, the list could go on and on. Please pass this onto her as she was fantastic and is a great asset to your hotel

Horrifically warm room with no temperature control
Room so uncomfortably warm - unable to sleep. Very small fan which didn't help. Pointless going to a hotel to not have a restful stay.

A lovely place for a celebration or relaxing break
We chose Rufflets to celebrate my sister's birthday and from start to finish we had a lovely relaxed stay. The hotel is only a few mins drive from the centre of St Andrews yet you are in the countryside. The hotel has a gorgeous patio, gardens and woodland walk. All the staff were friendly and professional and the food was excellent. A lovely place for a special celebration or relaxing break.
