ONLY WENT FOR FOOD .... NOT A NICE EXPERIENCE
Pros:

We did not stay there but only went for a meal . Curry too hot I could not eat it so only ate the chips, my hubbys Lasagna was not nice, he said the Lasagna sheets were soggy so not a good experience. I asked for a diet coke and was given Pepsi but when I complained she said I can get you something else so I ordered another soft drink, When she came back I was told it had been the last glass bottle of diet coke they had put in a Pepsi glass But when did a 200ml bottle of coke fill a 450 pepsi glass with about 3 tiny bits of ice. Never but I was charged for both and even though I had not asked for a reduction in any way but she said I cannot give you anything off your meal as the chef said he did not add anything to the curry. So I guess like the former owners it maybe comes in pre cooked sachets and is only heated up by the kitchen staff Starters were nice but over £54 for 2 people It was definitely not worth it Very disappointed will not be back We used to go there a couple of times a week.

Rude management
Pros:

On my arrival I had been met with a friendly face and had an amazing checkin as I was leaving the building to head to the restraunt I had heard the manager of the hotel say a ride and u professional comment to the reception member. This really disheartens me as people should not come to work and be spoken to like such from any member of staff especially the person who is meant to be setting example !

Apart from that lovely place to stay nice and quiet, good restaurant next door!

Premier Inns are great!
Pros:

Premier Inns are great! I like the reassurance that the room and hotel facilities are consistently good in every Premier Inn.
I also appreciate that most Premier Inns are quiet at night meaning a peaceful sleep.
Craig on reception was chatty so my check in was really friendly and welcoming.
Thank you.

Comfortable no frills accommodation
Pros:

First appearance the place looks great although the road in from an adjacent business park could be improved - the road passes by a drive in coffee business - it’s all very confusing and an accident waiting to happen. Once on hotel grounds there’s plenty of parking.

The hotel shares the site with a Brewers Fayre restaurant so it can be very busy at dinner time.

Hotel check in was easy enough, largely thanks to Kay who was a star. Our room was in the first floor and there are no lifts.

The room was spacious with a double bed and bed come sofa. There were tea and coffee making facilities and a decent view into a hillside with cows!

The bathroom only had a bath with a shower over it was all a bit dated. The step into the bath for a shower seemed a little risky as there were no grab rails.

The room was clean and the bed came with extra pillows.

The staff we met all seemed friendly but this hotel is all about you arrive? You sleep, you leave. No frills.

Bedroom ok, bathroom unhygienic.
Pros:

Arrived at 10pm after a 7 hour drive. Myself and young son. The lady on reception was super helpful and friendly. The room was cold but soon warmed up when the heating turned on. Bed comfortable and room tidy.

My issue was the bathroom. Pubic hairs on the floor of the bathroom and blood on the outside of the toilet and underneath the toilet seat is simply unacceptable.

Shame about the heated towel rails but otherwise 8/10 overall and 10 for value
Pros:

We have stayed here once or twice a year for the past 20 years as we visit our daughter and her family. It's always been good value for money, and still is, but there's always been things we could moan about. We stayed three nights in room 3 for £180 excluding any food. The rooms are a good size, beds and linen are good, good TV and you have control of the rooms thermostat. However, none of the hotels heated towel rails are working and so we had damp towels, the hotel appears to turn down the rooms temperature from a central location at around 8:00am and so just watch out for that and you can turn it up again. There's enough hanging space, we even had a spare bed/sofa in our room which was ideal for unpacking/packing cases. Tea/coffee facilities are all good. We breakfasted one day in the adjoining restaurant and Michael did a good job of looking after us and it was super good value for money and the coffee is similar to Costa but much much cheaper.

Very pleasant stay
Pros:

Loved my stay - staff at the Premier Inn Monifieth were lovely, room and bathroom was immaculately clean and the bed/pillows are just as the advert states - best night's sleep I have had in ages. I didn't book any meals in advance but had no problem getting a table for dinner or breakfast the following morning. The only thing I would say is that the breakfast was a bit overpriced - I had to pay £12.49 for toast and scrambled egg and I had to make my own toast. The quality of the food and drink was absolutely fine though.

Old fashioned dirty premiere inn
Pros:

I stay in a lot of premier inn hotels with work , and personally think this hotel is the worse av stayed in it needs an upgrade asap , old heaters in the rooms give off really bad smell , the rooms are cleaned but feel dirty and the carpets I wouldn’t walk without shoes on never mind bare feet .
The staff are friendly and very helpful and the restaurant attached on to hotel is great , The problem is the outdated rooms and feeling dirty in them and rooms are also very cold even with heating on . Also the lock on the inside it’s a chain you would get in an old tenement , and the key is old school and has massive bit of wood hanging of it . (No key cards)

Excellent in every way
Pros:

Excellent Hotel & Restaurant, we visited with 2 young people with additional support needs. We had everything that we needed in the hotel and it was also very quiet in the evenings which is a huge bonus.
Staff are all amazing and first impressions were definitely lasting.
Bedrooms absolutely spotless and bed linen crisp and immaculate, couldn't have asked for anymore. We all had a fantastic stay. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Rest & relax
Pros:

We booked this hotel at short notice to take advantage of the beautiful weather. The room had a fabulous view over the countryside, it was immaculately clean and the bed was supremely comfortable. The reception staff were very friendly and efficient and came across as very professional. The only downside was workers up & leaving the hotel at 6am disturbed us by slamming room doors & fire doors on the way out but other than that I can highly recommend this hotel g would definitely return 10/10

Lovely hotel with great comfy beds
Pros:

This hotel is located in a industrial place but its a great location for getting to places. The hotel staff are polte and the rooms are clean. The beds are great and comfy. Very clean and spacious.

Not sure if I would recommend the breakfast in the restaurant next door. I found the place to be dirty, toilets dirty and nothing freshly cooked for you. Its all on a buffet. Depends what you want from a breakfast. Staff dont come and clean your tables either so you find your places stack up as well. We also tried this place for dinner and its just as bad.
But the Premier Inn is a lovely place to stay and has good parking to.
I would definately go back.

Stay at Premier Inn - Dundee
Pros:

Decent bedding and clean room. Shower power was weak, and reception could be more friendly. Price for the night was higher than should be, but may also be due to late booking

Monifieth
Pros:

First, I was disappointed that Bill wasn't on the reception desk as he had checked me in on all m previous visits however there was a very friendly girl there instead who was very pleasant, helpful and welcoming. A smile really goes a long way.
All the other staff were smiley and friendly too.
I like Monifieth PI as it is still as it was, un-refurbished and traditional but it still feels fresh.
I managed to get a meal in the restaurant which was only open to residents fo meals on Friday, unfortunately it was completely shut on Monday so I went to Dundee entre for breakfast there instead.
See you next time.
