    This is probably the nicest hostel I’ve ever booked. My room was large and clean. My private room also had a sink and tea kettle. The kitchen was large, clean, and well-organized. The property also has numerous public spaces, like a reading room...

    Dundee Backpackers is in the central location for getting to all one needs to get to, whether transportation, the River Tay, museums, shopping, walking around, etc. Perfect, and one can quickly be orientated getting g back and forward.

    The staff is super nice and helpful, the room was big and cozy. The hostel is in the centre of the city and there are many parking lots all around: make sure you check first where to park as you might have to walk a bit from the car to the hostel....

    Great staff. Nice clean kitchen with separate dining and lounge rooms. Wonderful graphics showing the history and renovation of a very historic building. Downtown location is very convenient but can be noisy.
