 Privately owned, the Albany Hotel is first and foremost a family run hotel. Its aim is to provide an informal and relaxing atmosphere for guests. After a busy day's golf, business or sightseeing, they will really appreciate the peace and quiet of the hotel and enjoy unwinding in its cosy residents' lounge with a good book, and a brandy or a dram of malt whisky.
This elegant golfing hotel lies at the heart of historic St. Andrews within a short distance of the castle, the cathedral, the university and the theatre. There are many shopping venues as well as countless restaurants and bars to be found in the near vicinity and links to the public transport network may easily be reached on foot. The sea and nearest beach are to be found within metres of the hotel, lying just 600 m away. Edinburgh airport is just under 90 km away.
There are 22 en suite rooms, family rooms and suites to suit all requirements. Each room is tastefully and individually furnished and offers flat screen TV with digital channels, a hospitality tray and free WiFi access.
For golfers, reception will arrange to enter guests into the daily Old Course Ballot (subject to golf conditions).
A full Scottish Breakfast in the lovely Garden Restaurant is offered daily. Although evening meals are not available at the hotel, it is within walking distance of many excellent restaurants in the town centre.
Glasgow and Edinburgh are the nearest airports. The local railway station is Leuchars. There is a bus station in St. Andrews.

If travelling from the railway station take either a taxi or bus to St. Andrews (15 minutes' drive).
