Hotels in St Andrews don’t come more friendly than this. Our quiet location in North Street is close to St Andrews Castle and Cathedral, the University, cinema and the best of town centre shopping. The Old Course - which many of our guests naturally hope to play during their stay with us - is within easy walking distance.

Whether you are visiting a son or daughter studying at St Andrews University, visiting St Andrews or Fife on holiday, a visiting academic, passing through on business, or making a pilgrimage to the home of golf, the Albany will make an ideal base for your stay in St Andrews.

Privately owned by Cecilia Ferraro, the Albany is first and foremost a family run hotel. Our aim is to provide an informal and relaxing atmosphere for our guests. After a busy day's golf, business or sightseeing, you will really appreciate the peace and quiet of the Albany and enjoy unwinding in our cosy residents' lounge with a good book, and a brandy or a dram of malt whisky.

We are open all year round. Our range of single, double and family accommodation allows us to match your needs. We pride ourselves on excellent hospitality, provide some great golf packages, and are best known perhaps for our very popular and short and weekend breaks in St Andrews.
