Perfect stay. Close to the top of Perth Road, very clean and comfortable bed. Breakfast was amazing, lots of choice and cooked to order. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Had a lovely one night stay. Room was very spacious and came equipped with all that I needed. Bed was very comfy and never experienced any disturbance from fellow guests. Barely heard any noise so it was a surprise to see so many folk the next morning at breakfast. Owners were so lovely and welcoming and nothing was ever too much hassle. Only minor downsides to this place is it is slightly outdated decor wise and there was single glazed windows in my room which made the room slightly cold but that is expected in an aged property. Otherwise no complaints and will gladly stay again.

The Scottish breakfast was a feast and was a great start to the day. Good price, considering what other hotels charge, for what is ultimately a bed for the night. Maybe slightly dated, but hospitable, and owner very personable and helpful.

There were 3 of us and we were given a room with 2 single beds and a double. It also has a sofa, table and 4 chairs. We had a lovely view from our windows and the room had tea and coffee making facilities and also provided bottles of water and pringles. We only stayed 1 night but enjoyed our stay and would recommend.

The hotel offers spacious comfortable accommodation.
utilities services should be overhauled to avoid guests having to wait for many minutes to get running hot wate. There's a reminder note on the wall inside the room about this inconvenience! Once the problem is fixed a stay there will be much nicer

This was my first time to stay here. I have no complaints whatsoever about the place. Delicious breakfast, friendly helpful staff, comfortable & spacious room, tea/coffee & bottled water in room with biscuits & Pringles. Fluffy towels & lots of warm water.

Very spacious comfortable room with very comfortable bed with breakfast cooked to order with good choice and excellent service. Hot water takes a while to run through but is fine once it reaches you and noise from adjoining rooms and bathrooms can be heard so noisy neighbours would be an issue.

The overall dated appearance of this property is easy to ignore.
It is a grand building and feels more like a hotel than a B&B, the double room I had was huge, plenty of storage and some nice amenities.
It’s clear to see that the owners have all the intentions to provide a high level of service without penny pinching to maximise profit.
The quality and presentation of the breakfast was outstanding and up there with one of the best I’ve had at any hotel.
This place definitely deserves stay

In general the lodge was conveniently located for our visit, and the street parking easy to access.
Room was spacious, but due to location on ground floor a bit noisy as the check was located just outside of room at the main entrance. It might be useful for the owner to consider moving the check in down the hall or into the shared common room across the hall as this room was rarely used by any of the clients during our 7 day stay.
Wifi was spotty and this could easily be improved with installation of a few more WiFi locators. The spotty WiFi may have been due to not enough band width, again easily sorted.
The finishing were fantastic in our bed room but dated in the TV room, these could be updated for little cost. The room lack a small refrigerator which all hotels provide, so we would recommend this be installed in all rooms for clients.
Finally, travelers from North America do not us instant coffee, so in addition to the Nescafe sachets the owners should provide some better quality coffee, either ground with a french press or high end bag coffee.

I was very disappointed with this guest house, the reality did not match the description, the room was dirty and not cleaned properly, the shower was a joke, rooms and property very dated in need of a major refurb. I had considered leaving and booking somewhere else. I had booked for B&B only to told on arrival due to Covid there would be no breakfast, I was then asked if I would like to order an evening meal?? No offer of refund for breakfast, if you aren't offering breakfast don't advertise that you are. I wouldn't normally leave a review with photos but I have made an exception in this case. I will not be staying at this guest house again,

Very disappointing stay here for the price.
On arrival I was told there wouldn’t be any breakfast (although it’s still advertised on all sites as available) because the dining room was closed at the moment - not sure why. However I was told that if I wanted anything to eat in the evening I could order a take away from them as they run an Indian take away from their kitchen.
I wasn’t shown any public/shared spaces on arrival, there is definitely not a ‘bar/lounge’ as is advertised.
The whole place was tired, old and worn looking. Bedroom and bathroom spacious but odd furniture, bit chilly, and my room had thin white curtains meaning very bright room at 5am.
Took a while for hot water to come through in shower and it was draining very slowly - actually thought water was going to spill over onto floor.
Wifi didn’t work in the room - only in downstairs lounge apparently.
To top it off whoever was in the room next to me were up all night, chatting, playing music, walking about the room and unfortunately every time someone walked on the floor in the next door room my bed shook.
Can’t recommend and won’t be back. No sign of anyone going about when I left in the morning. Disappointing for what was advertised as a ’superb’ place in the West End of Dundee.

One night stay en route to Aberdeenshire. Beautifully decorated witha nod to Charles Rennie Mackintosh for the interior. Staff were lovely. Friendly and helpful. Would be more than happy to stay there again. Close to eateries for good evening meals but the hotel itself offers a made to order breakfast. All very good and excellent value for money

The owners are 2 years into it and have done a superb job of renovation. They could. like all older guest houses save a ton of money by using the weather film to reduce air infiltration in the old windows but that is minor. Great room and a terrific breakfast only 1.5 miles from train station
