All i can and will say about this place is that despite requesting a double room we were given a converted stairwell with two single beds in it. Not only this. Inside this 'room' (i use the term loosely!) were two doors which could not be locked...the other side of these doors? Stairs to other rooms through one, and an... More

I am sorry you were not given a double room as requested. The room you stayed is part of a family unit and the two doors should have been locked. I can only apologise and hope your stay will be better next time. More

My partner and I stayed here for one night while at a wedding in Dundee. Having never stayed at guest house before I was pleasantly surprised by the warm welcome we recieved.

My boyfriend and I had a very large and well-appointed double room (en-suite) at Alcorn Guest House. The staff was friendly and flexible about check in, breakfast, etc. The beds were very comfortable and noise from other rooms was minimal. We would definitely stay there again if we need to be in Dundee. More

I stayed at the Alcorn Guest House for 3 nights last week while on business in Dundee. Having stayed at a similarly priced bed and breakfast in Dundee the previous week, which left a lot to be desired, I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived at the Alcorn. The room was a good size, clean and warm with good storage... More

I stayed here for 2 nights. You need to be careful to go to Hyndford Street and not Hyndford Place! Room was good value (£25 per night for a single in March 2006, including full English breakfast), fairly small, with TV and basin in room, but no soap or shampoo. Tea and coffee making facilities were included in the room.... More
