Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Old Course Hotel enjoys an amazing location, often providing guests with suite upgrades that boast views of the golf course, town, and sea. The spa is a highlight, especially after its renovation, and afternoon tea is a delightful experience with fresh sandwiches, scones, and creative cakes. While some found the food during buffet meals to be inconsistent, many appreciate the spacious, clean rooms and the little extras like quality bathroom products; however, some rooms lack a bath, which some guests find unusual for the price point.

Disappointing Experience, Unexpectedly.

dirty room non-functioning tv
I had issues. The room was not as clean as I expected. It did not resemble the photos online. The TV in the room did not work. That was frustrating. I arranged for rose petals to be in the room upon arrival. Staff told my girlfriend at the door they were placing them. We returned from dinner to find only 15 petals. They were not roses, and I was charged £15 for them.
