Travellers describe The Dunvegan Hotel as a characterful, centrally located spot steps from the Old Course, with a lively pub and standout, friendly service, comfortable rooms, and generally good breakfasts and pub meals that make stays easy and enjoyable.
The golf memorabilia and buzz appeal to fans, and bathrooms in several rooms are newly updated. Common trade-offs include evening noise from the bar or street, no on-site parking, and stairs only. A few guests reported room maintenance issues or limited tea-making options. Expect a lively, convenient base best suited to those who enjoy the scene.

Great legendary golfers hotels. Nice bar and restaurant. lLots of history. Close to St. Andrews and shops. No onsite car park so there is a long walk from a lot at St. Andrews medical school.

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

Fun spot from which to experience St. Andrew’s. Great staff. Comfortable, clean room. Only cautions are that parking is a couple blocks away and there is no elevator, so luggage must be carried up the narrow stairs to the 2nd floor. Would stay here again.

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.

The Dunvegan is absolutely enchanting and is perfectly located for visiting your University of St. Andrews student (MacIntosh Hall, the first year dorm, is right across the street.) The staff was so friendly and accommodating that we left feeling like family. Breakfast was cooked to order and the few number of rooms in the hotel made it a relaxing experience. A few things to remember if you are visiting from the US are that it is in the middle of town in an old building so there is no on-site parking. It's better to rely on public transportation rather than a rental car. Also, the bottom floor is a very popular pub so, in the evenings, you are part of the action. If you are a go-to-bed-early kind of traveler, you may find the atmosphere a little noisy until 10:30 p.m. But that is a large part of the charm of the place too.

This is an older hotel and when you first check in rooms seem old. However they were comfortable. The breakfast in the morning was fabulous and we found the restaurant/pub the best in the evening. It was packed full of golfers and locals, who made you feel at home. The hotel is within walking distance Erin the bus station and to all of the local attractions.

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.

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!

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.

The Dunvegan is absolutely enchanting and is perfectly located for visiting your University of St. Andrews student (MacIntosh Hall, the first year dorm, is right across the street.) The staff was so friendly and accommodating that we left feeling like family. Breakfast was cooked to order and the few number of rooms in the hotel made it a relaxing experience. A few things to remember if you are visiting from the US are that it is in the middle of town in an old building so there is no on-site parking. It's better to rely on public transportation rather than a rental car. Also, the bottom floor is a very popular pub so, in the evenings, you are part of the action. If you are a go-to-bed-early kind of traveler, you may find the atmosphere a little noisy until 10:30 p.m. But that is a large part of the charm of the place too.

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.

The Dunvegan was conveniently located to shops, golf, restaurants, and the university. The staff were kind, accommodating, and courteous. The pub had good food and a lively atmosphere. My daughter and I were very comfortable staying here and are definitely planning on staying again for all future visits.

This is an older hotel and when you first check in rooms seem old. However they were comfortable. The breakfast in the morning was fabulous and we found the restaurant/pub the best in the evening. It was packed full of golfers and locals, who made you feel at home. The hotel is within walking distance Erin the bus station and to all of the local attractions.

Dining
Breakfast is often good or cooked to order, and the pub/restaurant serves tasty meals. Some tea drinkers miss in-room kettles and wider hot drink options at breakfast.

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.

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.

This property is one city block from hole 1 / hole 18 of the Old Couse @ St. Andrews. Our first night we had dinner at the pub and every morning they serve a delicious breakfast. The staff were friendly and helpful.

We had a lovely one night stay. Very spacious, comfortable and stylish room with a new bathroom and yummy shortbread with tea and coffee. A fantastic lively pub downstairs, the pictures are great for golf fans and the meals were delicious!

Great location, lovely staff. But would love a kettle in the room as a tea drinker. Saying that staff were happy to supply hot water. Recommended place to stay.

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.

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!

If you are looking to sleep then this isn’t the place. Bar downstairs is loud beyond belief and the road noise feels like your sleeping in the middle of the road. If you’re looking to have fun with your mates and party then it’s perfect. We would not stay here again.

The Dunvegan Hotel is a great place to stay and served as my base for my 6 golf round trip and one week stay in St. Andrews. The room had everything I needed and the location was perfect near everything happening in the town of St. Andrews and of course, the Old Course, where I had the privilege of playing there. Breakfast was great and I was greeting upon arrival by Luke, the manager, who helped me bring my bags to my room. I would definitely recommend and would stay here again, for sure.

Lovely staff, excellent pub downstairs- and amazingly the rooms above were quiet! Room was a bit tired and the carpet was weirdly slippery but bathrooms were new. Needed some storage or shelving in the bathroom. Expensive but I guess that’s St Andrews for you.
