If you’re an early riser, its definitely a place for you as you can hear the birds outside and the people around your ro
Pros:

The area is pretty close to the beach and how its a quirky place. Plus the old golf course is just across the hotel.

Cons:

Its just so hard to go up the stairs with a big luggage plus you can hear the steps of every people outside of the room and even upstairs.

Charming and comfortable hotel in the heart of St. Andrews.
Pros:

The hotel is a charming property located in an ideal area of St. Andrews and within walking distance to everything - shops, restaurants, the university. The suite we had was enormous and featured a comfortable bed as well as a spacious bathroom. The views of the North Sea were a lovely bonus.

Amazing stay
Pros:

Had a wonderful stay at Hotel Du Vin. Great location to get into town but have the benefit of the beach on the doorstep too. Such a relaxed atmosphere but felt so well looked after.
The bar was perfect to warm up in after a cold day and the food was great in the bistro, especially the duck.
Can’t wait to go back for another visit already

Lovely hotel.
Pros:

Stayed for 2 nights on bed and breakfast basis. Room was to the rear of the hotel and was spacious and spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated. The spacious dining room had views to the sea and beach .The bar area is to the rear and has access to a patio area with seating and tables and would be nice to sit in during summer months. All staff were friendly and efficient and professional.
Would definitely recommend this hotel.

Stay away for now.
Pros:

Terrible. Don’t book as there is major building works going on next door and they are not being transparent about this.Really unfair. Excavators and drilling into ground. Also like a building site front and back.
Shame for the hotel but be honest. Don’t take peoples money and hide this from people.

Great St. Andrews Hotel
Pros:

First time staying with Hotel du Vin and we were very impressed. Great location in St. Andrews close to the West Sands, the Old Course and the centre of the town.
What really stood out was the staff. All of them were very friendly and very cheery and always went out of their way to help us. Would certainly stay there again.
