Dundee is fast moving up the ranks of popular UK city break destinations. The arrival of V&A Dundee only hints at the continuing transformation Scotland’s fourth city is undergoing. It seems that there’s something new to discover in Dundee almost every week. Plus it’s surrounded by beautiful landscapes throughout Angus, Fife and Perthshire and makes the perfect base to stay for a few days and explore.
There are plenty of choices when it comes to resting your head for a night or two in or around Dundee. From hotels to bed and breakfast, luxury lodges to serviced catering apartments you’ll find somewhere that fits the bill for your perfect weekend getaway.
Here’s another list for you to consider for your next weekend away.
Top Tip – Always remember to always book direct with the accommodation to get the best deal.
Located in the former premises of the famous Tay Hotel, Malmaison Dundee is a beautifully-reconstructed building. With a mixture of historic character and modern flair, the property has all the facilities for a comfortable stay and is smack bang in the centre of town overlooking Slessor gardens and the soon to arrive Dundee Winterfest.
The hotel has its own cosy brasserie, Chez Mal, complete with Josper Grill, open for lunch, dinner and Sunday Brunch. The hotel’s Malbar venue has a comprehensive list of classic and quirky cocktails (try the ‘Good girl, Bad Boy), wines, ice cold beers and whiskys.
If you’re looking to make your ‘stay different’ then check out Urban Quarters serviced apartments on South Tay Street. They’re jam packed with style, comfort and perfectly located to fit in with your urban adventure in Dundee.
There are 4 apartments, so you can plan to travel with friends and family and make great use of the well-equipped kitchen, a separate living space, bathroom and multiple bedrooms each apartment offers.
A contemporary four star experience is the reward for choosing to stay at the Apex City Quay Hotel & Spa.
You can take some ‘Yu time’ at the luxurious Yu Spa, where guests get free use of the fully equipped Technogym, swimming pool, sauna, steam room and hot tub. A range of holistic and massage treatments are also available to book for an extra charge, so you’ll have no trouble sinking into relaxation in one of the calming treatment rooms.
You can always be guaranteed a fantastic breakfast when you stay at a proper bed and breakfast and Dupplin 152 is no exception. A lot of love and care goes in to making the first meal of the day the best one.
Book in to your home away from home and enjoy some good old fashioned hospitality.
