    What an incredible festive stay! The deluxe king room was cozy, with stunning views, while the breakfast and Christmas dinner at the Swilcan Loft truly delighted us. I'd definitely book again!

    This was a midweek 2 night stay. We both thought the hotel was excellent, especially the staff. Very attentive without being intrusive. Complimentary glass of champagne on arrival, excellent breakfast, wonderful spa and a good choice of eateries, from fine dining to pub grub and the Sands grill. Ease of parking.

    The bathroom was very poor for this standard of hotel. The bath was so deep that it was really difficult to climb in and out to have a shower, and it wasn't very powerful.

    The staff is outstanding and the service always top notch. The breakfast included with the room is amazing and we enjoyed it every morning while watching the first golfers tee off. All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to be back many times in the future.

    There's very little to complain about. Its a top luxury hotel and it lives up to its reputation. It's expensive, but in this case you get what you pay for.

    Without doubt this was the best hotel we have ever stayed in. The staff, without exception , were very welcoming and very helpful throughout our stay. The hotel was very quiet in the night so everyone could get a good nights sleep and the levels of comfort were exceptional. We would certainly recommend The Old Course Hotel!

    complimentary treats
    indoor pool
    relaxing sauna
    steep mini bar prices

    We had a wonderful stay with our kids, and the hotel surprised us with delicious complimentary treats for their enjoyment. The spa facilities were perfect for unwinding, especially the relaxing sauna and refreshing indoor pool. The only little issue was that the mini bar prices were a bit steep, but overall, we had an amazing time! 🌟
