Top Desperate Dan Statue Hotel Reviews

Hampton by Hilton Dundee City Centre

8/10 Good

"Lovely spacious room, good bathroom with shower. Breakfast bit disappointing as food seemed to have been sitting for some time. Sausages were quite hard. Bacon solid. Nice choice of teas and good toaster."

Holiday Inn Express Dundee by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Welcoming staff, allowed us an early check in. Hotel is clean comfortable and well located."

Hotel Indigo Dundee by IHG

8/10 Good

"This is a beautiful unique hotel within an old mill. The building and the rooms within have been modernised to a high standard and they have kept some of the original features. The room itself was large with very high ceiling. The bathroom was also very nice and large. The only thing we could even pick up on was the lack of biscuits on the tea tray or hot chocolate sachets. Even at breakfast there is no hot chocolate option. However we would highly recommend the hotel and have no doubt that we will return."

Four Points Flex by Sheraton Dundee

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay. There was some noise from outside (5th floor, front facing room), but considering the location and that it was a Friday night, we really could not complain. Bed was very comfy, everything was very clean and well maintained. At £99, this was excellent value for money. Would absolutely stay here again."
