“Good budget accommodation”

Travelodge Dundee Central

Dave9

Blackpool, United Kingdom

Aug 8, 2007

If three dots is three-star then that's about right but I've given it 4 because we only paid £26 per room (excellent value then). Everything you would expect from the standard travelodge room - except a bit bigger on this occasion. As others have said, the place is a converted warehouse so the rooms are large and very tall - they have lowered the ceilings by about a metre to make them feel less like a prison cell (bit unfair but you still get a slight echo). Loads of room for your things though.

Good location in the middle of Dundee. Some have said they had trouble as there is no cafe - go to the Weatherspoons 200 metres down the road opposite (the one with the shell station next to it). It serves food from 9am to 11pm and has great beers. Some Weatherspoons are big drinking pubs but this has a good feel and you could get a 3 course meal for £7.50 - it's nice food as well and yes you can get Haggis there (and other scottish foods).

If you have two cars, don't take the best one. The hotel car park is at the back and whilst well lit and we didn't see any damage, it is accessed 24 hours (I think) from a rather unappealing backstreet. There is also a covered walkway that forms the entrance to both the hotel and a business next door and you can cut through from the main road to the backstreet through the car park - handy, but also handy for the drunks from the nightclub opposite. Our room was at the back so we heard them a bit at 2am. The constant squarking from the seaguls was also annoying (we live in Blackpool and ours don't do that at all hours). Flocking noisy birds as I said at 4 in the morning (I do love spellcheck).

Excellant value for money at £51 per room per night. Newly refurbished - sooo clean. Rooms very spacious - high ceilings. Staff very helpful and such a central location. Would definitely stay here again

“Great value, large rooms”

Travelodge Dundee Central

My boyf and I stayed here for 2 nights in May for a family wedding. The hotel is bang in the centre of the city and very close to the Discovery, train station and shops as well as the city's nightlife.
The hotel is a converted mill and the rooms are really large with very high ceilings and a sofa which is good. The car park was a bit run down and hasn't yet been completed as the hotel is new. Room was clean and the bathroom was comfortable, although the temperature of the shower kept changing from freezing to hot! The only slight negatives was the noise, the hotel is close to Fat Sams nightclub and guests could be distrurbed, and the room doors are very heavy and
all night and morning we could hear them being slammed. Great value and location though.

“Noise from Fat Sam's Night Club!”

Travelodge Dundee Central

I agree with other correspondents that the noise at night around this hotel is terrible. It comes from the busy road and especially from Fat Sam's Night Club across the road.

In January at least the standard Travelodge electric heater just wasn't powerful enough to heat a much larger than usual Travelodge room.

“Street Noise and poor parking”

Travelodge Dundee Central

The rooms are large and clean but there a few issues that really bring the score down. The hotel sits at a very busy intersection and close to the road. Basically the car noise never stops if you have a room facing these streets. There are also several local bars and when they close at 2AM there was loud hooting and hollering for at least another hour near our windows after that.

The other issue is parking. Its not at all clear were the parking lot is. You have to go down a back street and turn into an area where there's construction going on. And there's only about 20 spaces. When we got there all the spaces were taken up by cars owned by the construction workers. At 5PM the lot was nearly empty when the workers left. The hotel manager really needs to do something about that since free parking isnt easily found in this area.

All in all I cant recommend this hotel.
