Testimonials
“Came for dinner and overnight stay for my 40th last Saturday. Haar is an absolute gem of a place. The rooms are gorgeous and comfy with lots of nice touches (the homemade shortbread was delicious) When it came to dinner I can safely say that it is some of the best food I have ever eaten! Snack to dessert were stunning. The staff were attentive yet not in your face. My wife and I have decided we have found our new favourite place... Oh and I still cannot decide what my favourite course was” – Richard
“Rooms were modern, clean, and even had smart TVs for late night streaming, but what made it special was the hotel host and the restaurant host/waitress who were excellent and treated everyone special. The breakfast was super!” – Bill
“A fabulous time from start to finish!! We were warmly welcomed and taken to our room. The room was tastefully decorated with everything you needed from GHD straighteners, robes, mini bar, tea, coffee and the most amazing view to the sea. The products in the bathroom were lovely (so much so I have ordered some for at home!) We then went to the restaurant for dinner, again the staff were very attentive! The meal was absolutely amazing! We had the 5-course tasting menu and added all 3 extras as we couldn’t pick only 1! We were not disappointed with any! The portions were very generous. I would definitely recommend the signature lobster dish. Breakfast in the morning was also fabulous with a great choice! We could not fault anything and would highly recommend! 5-star food, 5-star staff Thanks Haar for a fantastic time in St Andrews.” - Erin
