We only booked one week in advance of our trip. Check-in experience was great and staff gave good recommendations for places to eat in Dundee. Pool area was busy but a bonus to have. We didn't eat in the hotel but food looked good. Would definitely recommend staying here when in Dundee, very handy ...
