Breakfast was quite simply amazing ... Fabulous choice and friendly servers. Room extras were fab too, was not expecting so many nibbles. Shampoo/conditioner smelled amazing, I wish I'd taken note of brand. Parking was good, we were literally 10 steps to door. I met people who use this hotel often when visiting family at local University and I can imagine myself being one of them now. Local bus service is available at end of street, although we didn't use. Local taxi service was friendly and knew where to go instantly.

It's an older building... and with that comes older fixtures and fittings... I think it adds to appeal.. some may not.

Room was huge! Was like a mini flat (minus a cooker! 😂) Tea, coffee, snacks etc was very appreciated. Beds and bedding where comfy and cozy. Beautiful views. Quite a quirky room, with period features but so lovely and welcoming. Plenty street parking and very close to restaurants and local area. Price was good too. Didn't stay for breakfast as we had the kiltwalk to get to but would definitely recommend ❤️

Took a while for hot water in the shower but that was started on the wall - due to age of building etc. Nothing actually spoiled the stay.

The owners were very welcoming and accommodating, with room upgrade. The room was cosy and quiet with very comfortable beds. From the breakfast menu we opted for full breakfast with toast and fresh coffee. We both struggled to complete such was the generous helping provided. Owners made our one night stay very pleasant and relaxing for both my teenage daughter and myself. Would not hesitate to return.

Guests may need to allow the showers time to supply the hot water from the tank.

The room was great, a perfect size for a solo traveller with a comfortable bed. The room included a small desk with some free water, crisps and biscuits with a kettle and the necessary stuff for tea or coffee. It also included a small TV with channels on to watch. The room also featured a spacious ensuite bathroom with small body wash/ shampoo to use.

While free WIFI was offered, this only worked in the common areas of the hotel, though the connection worked great in these areas.

What a great surprise finding the Shaftesbury Lodge Dundee. Found myself unexpectedly in Dundee for the day and night. Really didn’t want to fork out on city centre prices but wanted a good rated Hotel and found the Shaftesbury Hotel Dundee by chance. It’s around a 25 minute (1.4mi) walk from train station. Please don’t let the 25 minute walk put you off. The walk takes you past some of Dundee’s best rated coffee shops along Perth Road on route to the Hotel. The money saved on city centre hotel prices allows you to stop by these gems of coffee shops. Arrived 2 hours before check in and the manager was super cool and friendly about it. The room looked really cozy and noticed a bed I wanted to jump into at 1pm but more about that later. Room is of Victorian design with high ceilings. Extremely clean, tidy and cozy. Kettle, coffee, galaxy drink, Pringles, bottled water and tasty biscuits all on offer. Smart TV with various apps. I had Netflix & BBC iPlayer on. Plenty of fresh towels and a great shower. Oh! The bed? Quite simply Heaven! Taken a note of the bedding and pillows and will try to recreate at home. Just finished the all Scottish breakfast (other tasty options are available). The 25 minute walk allows you to burn off the coffee shop treats and big breakfast. Best 25 minute walk in Dundee😀. Was embarrassed to have found the room rate at only £60. Sometimes you get lucky. If I’m back for the football again will seek out the Shaftesbury. Staff very friendly and polite! Thank You.

Happy with everything. It’s around a 25 minute (1.4mi) walk from train station. Please don’t let the 25 minute walk put you off.

Good location for what we needed & very clean. Tea/coffee/snacks, hairdryer & shampoo/shower gel in room. We requested our room to be ready early if possible due to attending a wedding that day nearby and they had it ready for our arrival at 11:45am, which was much appreciated.

Breakfast was served until only 9am, which doesn’t give you much chance for a lie-in. Would be helpful to run it until 10am, in time for check out at half ten.

The house is beautiful. I would go as far as to say, it's luxurious. The room with lovely ensuite shower was enormous. The welcome tray went above and beyond. Staff were very friendly. The bed was super comfortable. There was a very good breakfast menu - everything was covered and the portions were extremely generous. Although some might prefer a central location - we were originally looking for one - we discovered we were much happier in this quieter location which nonetheless had lots of great looking bars and eateries close by.

There was nothing we didn't like but we only wish we had seen the leaflet for the take away service provided, earlier. That's no fault of the Hotel. What a fabulous bonus for.a return visit.

We have stayed before and on both occasions the breakfast was tasty and the staff were charming, efficient, welcoming and kind. This time we asked at very short notice if our young niece could join us for breakfast and they gave her a perfect sized breakfast and were very kind to her.

There was nothing that we did not like. We plan to return later this year, and are looking forward to our next visit. We would like to say thank you to the staff.

Yes we came to the hotel for a wedding which took place on Friday in Dundee at 4pm. We rang the hotel on the Friday morning before we set out on our journey to ask if the room could be ready earlier to which they agreed. When we got there everything was ready, and we were so surprised at the size of the room - it was beyond our expectations, we got changed for the wedding and then we rang for a taxi which turned up right on time which took us to the venue. The next morning we had our breakfast which again was lovely. We found the hotel so comfortable and the staff were all very pleasant especially the owners, we would definitely go to this hotel again when in the area.

A friendly and warm welcome was much appreciated and the free upgrade to a double room was a super bonus! I loved the room facilities especially the bath and the kettle. No complaints; great nights sleep, enjoyed windows that opened. Breakfast was delicious, I tried several different choices during my 4 night stay. The scrambled eggs and smoked salmon were exceptional. I enjoyed the walk back to the hotel each evening after my individual explorations of Dundee as this led to the discovery of a charming local pub The Speedwell - small, historic, friendly and full of life - a great way to round off my day.

It can take a while to run hot water; a little patience is all thats required.
