Perched right beside the 17th fairway of The Old Course, the Old Course Hotel is as close as it gets to staying at the Home of Golf. From the Champions Wing you're looking straight over the most famous layout in golf, with West Sands and the town just beyond. It's a five-star base built for golfers, with Kohler Waters Spa for recovery days, standout dining across several venues and the Jigger Inn next door for a proper post-round pint.
The hotel has recently completed a major renovation too, including refreshed rooms and public spaces plus the Swilcan Loft bar and restaurant, which has quickly become the go-to spot after a round. St Andrews' shops, bars, castle and cathedral ruins are all an easy walk away, so you can keep the trip simple, even if you're playing multiple rounds across the town's seven courses.
Previously named Scotland's Leading Golf Resort at the World Travel Awards, the Old Course Hotel delivers the sort of service and facilities that keep tour players coming back when they're in town. It's the only hotel right beside the Old Course, with front-row views across the links, and if you're serious about playing St Andrews properly, this is where you base yourself.
