The view was lovely but sadly through some small windows (due to age and being a listed building). The shower room/toilet was a bit tight on shelf/counter space for toiletries. Please also note the website info re parking. There are only 2 on-site parking spaces and Lower Largo is very tight for spaces. There is a free public car park a few minutes walk up a pretty steep path and we only just got the last space in that.While I appreciate it is well through the season a few areas in the room and common areas were looking pretty tired. I'm not sure the overall condition reflected the comparatively high rate.

The Crusoe has a lovely waterfront situation in Lower Largo pretty much right on the Fife coastal path. All the staff we met were very friendly and helpful. The room we had was a decent size, nice and bright, with a comfortable bed, TV, coffee/tea facilities, plenty of sockets/usb charging. It had a nice view immediately over the shore, which also provided a lovely lapping wave soundtrack. There was a nice shower room, compact but adequate, with plenty of towels provided. The food was very good from the breakfast ( continental buffet and a good cooked selection) to the restaurant and bar offering. Everything was very tasty.

No much really, Hotel looks aged on the outside , but right on the sea it gets weather beaten.

Location, lovely beach / shore for walks , very comfy well facilitated room. Food pretty good, we had a bit of dinner order mess up and the whole dinner cost was taken form the bill, an apology and a free drink would have been acceptable, Quiet location , nice old pub next door . Great breakfast Not far from St Andrews and a much cheaper option if in Fife.

The car parking was a bit chaotic not helped by the Largo art festival week being on, as this resulted in the car park being closed and all guests having to park their car in the public car parks or on the road.

The view from the bedroom was exceptional and the sound of the waves at high tide was very relaxing. The food was very good and all the staff were very nice and friendly.

Hotel with a story right by the sea. Tastefully decorated modern rooms. Comfortable beds. Excellent and healthy breakfast and superb dining in the Hotel and the sister restaurant Ship Inn in Elie (- with free shuttle service). Authentic bar with pool billiard, dart and live music. Very nice and helpful staff. Great starting point for visiting the lovely Scottish coast, Isle of May and St. Andrews.

The adjoining door to next room, understand it's good for bigger families if required however we could hear every word of guests next door (and vice versa). They have ones without adjoining door so worth asking next time.

Food was good, dinner and breakfast, all staff were lovely, great location on beach for dog walks.

Coming home. Would liked to have stayed longer.

Location was excellent. Staff exceeded the breakfast by purchasing G/F sausage for breakfast iin their own time. All breakfasts were cooked to perfection. Staff attentive but not intrusive during meals.

What a Beautiful hotel in a gorgeous location. Dog friendly, big win. Our room was gorgeous, looked on to the sea. Very clean. Breakfast was lovely, great selection. Haggis on the full Scottish breakfast was the best I've ever had. We ate at the hotel in the evening and wasn't disappointed. The staff are lovely, welcoming and accommodating. We look forward to staying with The Crusoe again.

Nothing we didn’t like about the property. The evening meal was delicious and good value but the portions were too large for many of our party.

Location was amazing - right on the beach and the Fife Coastal Path. The service was exceptional and the staff really went out of their way to make sure we enjoyed our stay, sharing local transport information and even posted on some personal property that we left behind.

Any complaint here would be trivial ( no marmalade for breakfast?). We enjoyed our stay very much.

Breakfast was absolutely excellent and we enjoyed every morning. Staff at this hotel were generally outstanding in terms of customer care. We were very happy to stay there and would not hesitate about returning, The location was also quite dramatic , being right on the high tide mark. I was entertained by the copy of “Robinson Crusoe” in each room.

Couldn’t complain about anything.

The property is right next to the sea. When they say sea view that is exactly what you get. So comfortable and relaxing. The breakfast was A+ and so was the service. All the staff especially the lovely receptionist couldn’t have been more helpful and friendly.
