Friendly staff, beautiful old building, great breakfast. Unfortunately we arrived during storm Ciara which gave problems with the boiler resulting in no hot water when we arrived. Not what we needed after a 24 hour trip from Australia. We had to go meet family for dinner without having a shower. We had lukewarm water next morning but after that it got better. The staff were very apologetic and offered us a change of room as room 4 where we stayed was very slow to get hot water. It was a lovely big room though and we had already unpacked so we decided it wasn't worth moving. We had snow, sleet and rain during our stay but our room was nice and cosy. Enjoyed our stay overall.

Travelled on business and stayed the one night. Stayed in a single room which was compact, but functional. Evening meal was excellent, varied menu and home cooked. Great VFM. Have to say though, the breakfast in the morning, probably the best I have had - Full Scottish Breakfast and it was exceptional. Helpful staff and attentive - lady on Reception at checkout was extremely pleasant. Would visit again and recommend 100%

I stayed 2 nights and unfortunately my room was directly above the function suite. I was not made aware on my arrival that there was to be a function that evening that included a loud disco and karaoke until the early hours of the following morning. When I complained the next morning I did receive a sympathetic response being told that there was no function planning that evening. The shower in the room ensuite produced only lukewarm/cool water. Whilst the staff were pleasant this was not an enjoyable stay.

Location of property was good and our room had lovely view. Shower in room was difficult at times due to being an old property with old piping. This would not deter us from returning.

Wouldn’t return
The single room was clean, but tiny. Like a cell. The bed was very small. The room looked directly into another room - just a few feet away. I was woken up very early each morning both by other residents and also staff walking up and down the corridor talking quiet noisily. Breakfast was good. The members of staff I met were friendly and professional however there didn’t seem to be enough of them.

Cute little hotel. Food was average though and the waitress seemed irked that we were a party of 3 and all the tables were set for two! And then we did not order a drink! We felt a bit unwelcome in the restaurant.

Great value in a classic Scottish manor house
Upon entry to the reception area my wife and I were greeted by a roaring wood fire in the lobby fireplace. Terrific on a chilly, damp Scottish day.The check-in was a breeze. The room was clean and nicely appointed. We even had a deck! Aside from the lounge area, there is a whisky & gin bar for more intimate conversation and relaxation. The restaurant was busy and everything we ordered during our two night stay was top notch. The hotel is within walking distance to the harbor area. However it seems Kirkcaldy has seen better days. Not one restaurant, tea room, shop, etc. near the water's edge. As we picked Kirkcaldy as a "base" for exploring the Fife southern coast it was just fine. The hotel is reasonably priced and if St. Andrews is your target, it is only a hour away via a pleasant drive along the coast of the Firth of Forth.

Kirkcaldy Gem
The Strathearn offers a clean and authentic Scottish accommodation. The breakfast was a fabulous offering of eggs, pancakes, fruit, yoghurts and cereals. Within walking distance to the beautiful ravenscraig park and the towns of Dysart and Kikcaldy. Our room was very clean with lots of room. Will return again!

A nice old mansion that need some update.
This hotel is in an old mansion and our bedroom was #6 near the heating/boiler system which was very noisy and lots of vibration and reverberances in our room when running. Fortunately it does not run all the time. The hotel appearance is outdated but still with some charm. Our mattress was worn out, the springs making noise - not very comfortable unfortunately. We stayed only one night. The room is very spacious but the bathroom is very small. The breakfast was very good. Some other rooms might be better than the one we have but cannot tell.

A hotel with a view and outstanding comfort
An excellent hotel which should have a higher rating. Excellent beds, bedrooms and views. The hotel is very comfortable with a gin and whiskey bar. There is a separate bar and restaurant which serves very good meals at value for money prices. The hotel is located close to the coast and a park which provides excellent coastal walks. It is within walking distance of the town. Locals make good use of the hotel adding great character to the hotel. Staff are friendly. The hotel is suitable for couples and families but more senior persons may struggle upstairs to bedrooms.
