I take a long time choosing my accommodation over the net. My girlfriend and I were visiting Dundee for one night only, to go to Albert Lee's (check him out) concert in the Whitehall theatre. The hotel is minutes away by foot and had good reviews, so we picked it. We were given a spacious room with a large bathroom... more

We arrived at the Shaftesbury on the coldest day of the year so far. The hotel is fine from the outside,situated in a nice area and the website was reassuring. I booked in advance and gave card details so our arrival was wholly expected. Despite this our large room was freezing and it was colder inside than out. We put... more

If it weren't for the dreadful bed that we had, we would have enjoyed our stay a lot more. It was impossible to move without making the entire bed rattle and waking up your partner. Putting this aside, the service was excellent and we enjoyed the breakfast a lot. The free DVD and internet service is also a nice touch.... more

Stayed in this hotel with my husband. First impressions were ok, room was spacious but could maybe do with decorating. Breakfast was included which was good but it was about a 20 minute walk into the city centre. Not too bad though as it was straight along the main road and plenty to see on the way. Hotel looked a... more

This charming place was recommended by family in Dundee. Although new owners had just taken over hotel it ran very smoothly (early Sept.04). Small and intimate. Lovely! Breakfast was included and the menu choices had something for everyone. Beautiful dining room and the food was delicious!!! Staff was MORE than accomodating! It felt as if I was staying with family!... more

I stayed for a weekend break at the Shaftesbury hotel and we were very pleased with our visit. The building is full of character and charm and is in a fantastic westend location central to all that Dundee has to offer. Our room was clean and spacious full of period features. Due to the size of the hotel the service... more

We reserved two rooms and were unhappy with both rooms: one room didn't have a decent chair to sit in while viewing the buzzing TV. Both rooms were very poorly lit - couldn't read in the rooms. One room had torn wallpaper in the bathroom. Extremely small shower - could barely turn around it in. Both rooms had no screens... more
