Macdonald Rusacks Hotel

Ever since Mary Queen of Scots scandalized a nation by playing golf here when she should have been mourning her husband, St Andrews has been a Scottish location that gets plenty of attention. The Macdonalds Rusack Hotel sits smack bang in the heart of this lovely seaside town (these days more famous for being the setting of the courtship between the Duchess of Cambridge and the current king-in-waiting) and just a toss of a golf ball away from the celebrated Old Course's 18th hole but this hotel offers more than golfing nirvana. The views from the rooms are just breath-taking and the Rocca Bar and Grill serve mouth-watering dishes that diners consume whilst admiring the breath-taking sea vistas. Spacious, comfortable rooms are decked out in modern décor with cozy tartan bed throws and feature lovely fluffy bathrobes and slippers, trouser presses, luxurious toiletries and tea and coffee making facilities.
