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 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.

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.

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.

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.

Wonderful hotel

I loved staying at The Dunvegan. First of all, the staff was outstanding. They were friendly and responsive. The hotel was clean, and my room was kept in prime condition. The breakfasts were yummy, and one night I ate in and the fish and chips were the best I've had. The hotel was central, so I could walk everywhere with ease. If I return to St. Andrews, The Dunvegan will be my first choice of where to stay. Thank you!
