The Clarendon

The owner was very responsive to my questions before arrival and was there to meet me and introduce me to the room features, especially the most up-to-date electronics. There was plenty of on-street parking so that was no issue whatsoever. I liked the location - a bit out of the center, therefore quiet but with easy access to the town center. As a single woman traveling alone, that was another bonus. The bathroom was beautifully designed with plush towels. They shared their own app with restaurant and sightseeing recommendations and other handy tips! This was a great base to see Dundee as well as Perth, Arbroath, Edzell, Montrose, St. Andrews and other locations in Fife. I hope to visit again.

We stayed at the Penthouse, and it was fantastic! Beautiful light from the skylight (there’s a blackout shade for darkening the room), a lovely view of the water; a generous amount of space; modern, tasteful appointments; great shower pressure. A refreshing modern change after a week of rustic B&B stays.

This place was so great that we decided to extend our car rental and book one more night. When I first booked, I received a lot of automated messages so I worried it is one of those hotels that belong to a large company and are not very personal. Luckily I was very wrong. The interior was beautiful, the room was perfectly clean, and the host (owner, I think?) was genuinely helpful. We had an issue with our car and he went out of his way to help us get what we needed. All the facilities worked great, the shower had great temperature and pressure, the internet was fast and reliable and the bed was comfortable. Definitely recommend!

My room commanded a spectacular panorama of the Tay and its rail bridge. (The proprieter informed me that the same goes for most - but not all - of the rooms.) This grand old place appears to have been given a thorough facelift in recent times. This has brought the best out of original features in the communal areas whilst affording considerable comfort, space and modernity in the rooms. The proprieter clearly shares my taste for slightly post-modern decor, which is to his credit. The fact that in-room provision included a Dundee Cake literally put a cherry on proceedings.

Some places look a lot better in the photo than they are but this one far exceeded expectations. The house is beautiful with a touch of quirk which appeals to my artistic self. The attention to detail is wonderful and it is super clean and comfortable. The bed was so comfortable we wanted to take it with us. I loved the technology but also that those who don’t have the option. The owner is a great and really friendly guy. Thanks so much for an amazing time. We highly recommend it.
