“Needs a revamp”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 January 2012

We have stayed at the above hotel on many occassions. Unfortunately it needs a revamp. The staff are very helpful and friendly. The restaurant and breakfast are ok. Comfortable chairs in the rooms are ugently require. You have nowhere to sit after a hard days shopping, nowhere to relax and on two occassions the tv in the room has white snow all through it. I would stay here again if they supply two comfortable chairs in the room as the staff are so freindly and helpful. A credit to the travelodge business.

Room Tip: Choose another more comfortable hotel.

“Good budget hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Good standard of basic rooms. Look out for budget rates from around £15. Not in city centre but free parking and buses from right outside. 10 minutes walk to football grounds and 20 minutes takes you to city centre. On site restaurant for breakfast and convenience evening meals. Small bar and vending machines.

“Good for one night...”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Travelodge, Strathmore Ave, Dundee, Scotland is great for just a one night stay,or two at most.
They have very attractive room rates, I paid just 19 pounds, about CAN$30, per night, but there is a catch, it is like staying in a shoe box. The bedroom measured about 9' x 11' and the bathroom 4' x 6'. When you place a queen size bed in a room that size you only have about 3' space between bed and walls, thus our room was only equipped with one chair and small desk on which stood the coffee machine,a small shelf with 6 coat hangers below, and a flat screen TV wall mounted. No closet, cupboards, drawers etc. to permit you to unpack your suitcase. Similarly the bathroom contained nothing but the basic shower stall, toilet and basin with limited counter space.
The location was good as a base from which to travel having good access to major highways and downtown Dundee, while at the same time being located in a quiet part of north Dundee. A restaurant is on site with limited menu but adequate and convenient for a short stay.
Staff were very pleasant and helpful except for their enforcement of the 3:00 pm check in time. When one has traveled for the best part of 24 hours and arrive at 2:00 pm you do not appreciate being barred from your room, or being told that for 10 pounds extra your room will magically become available immediately.
In summary, Travelodge has a good idea to cut frills and reduce prices but for the long stay guest they have gone too far. Eliminating pools, spas, fireplaces etc. is fine but not removing all storage space. Would I stay here again? Certainly but only for 2 nights max.

Room Tip: Ask if they have any larger rooms available, I did not ask.

“Better than expected”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 November 2011
2
people found this review helpful

We booked the cheapest deal we could find for an overnight stay in Dundee- so we were expecting a fairly spartan, no-frills experience. But we were pleasantly surprised by what we found. OK, the decor was far from exotic but the room was clean and quite spacious and the bathroom was warm and also beautifully clean. The bed was comfy and breakfast was plentiful with plenty of choice.
What impressed us most was the friendliness of the staff- they seemed genuinely keen to look after us and we noticed a lot of cleaning and polishing going on in the dining room, which was reassuring. It's not a hotel for a relaxing holiday or romantic weekend, but if you need a cheap and basic bed for the night it's ideal. We'll definitely use Dundee travelodges again for the same purpose.
