The room was really noisy. At 10.30 when my daughter was asleep a party started under our room in the bar with someone playing the saxophone loudly. Completely impossible to sleep through this. I had to go down to the bar and complain at which point the manager did ask them to stop. This function room under room 4 should not be used if guests are staying.

Great location near the Old Course. Nice size room with a fun bar/ restaurant on the first floor. The bathroom was completely renovated and was great. We walked a lot of St Andrews from this location.

GREAT location, large rooms - love staying at the Dunny. Onlybwarning I would give is that it will be loud at night (until the bar downstairs closes and the golfers/students disperse) until around 11. Not good for children.

Legendary hotel

Amazing location and history. The bar was always lively but the noise wasn’t an issue in our hotel rooms. Breakfast was good. The only downside was that there was a leak in the room above so the ceiling in one of our rooms was in pretty bad shape. The bathrooms were newly remodeled but our room needed some TLC. Having said that I would stay there again

We had a fabulous stay in Dunlevan. Only negative as tea drinker was lack of tea making facilities in the rooms and at breakfast. I travelled with my 17 year old who also doesn’t drink coffee which was the only hot drink option. Tea and hot chocolate would be a great addition to rooms, breakfast and bar services. Would happily recommend and would stay again if in the area.

Very, very old and very cool hotel with just a few big pleasant rooms. Right around the corner from the old course. The pub downstairs is right out of a movie, full of golfers and golf lovers with golf dominating the conversation. Good pub grub and service - overall great experience.

We loved the location. Walkable to the Old Course. The pub downstairs has so much history and vibe. The room was very clean and comfy. The bathroom is updated. There is no elevator, for those who may need one. We stayed in room #2, there was some road noise but we did have our window open. Breakfast was very good.

The Dunvegan Hotel is fabulous! We loved our time there. The location is perfect, close to the courses, shops, beaches and St Andrews. The people and staff are amazing, so helpful, and so fun. It was lively in the pub area and dinner at the Claret Jug was great. Absolutely a place I'd recommend for repeat visits.

A place to be

The bar is a big favorite among locals and worldwide golfers. Old Course right close. Very pleasant and very friendly. "Hotel operations" are run out of the bar. Pleasant and quiet room with single beds (golfers' pref, i'm sure) with updated bathroom. Lovely breakfast. Free parking for rental in public lot nearby.
