Set within 5 beautifully restored period buildings, one of which dates back to the 16th century, this unique hostel offers a selection of private rooms on Dundee’s bustling High Street.
Centrally located, the Dundee Backpackers boasts the pedestrianised centre, with numerous shops, restaurants, pubs and clubs, right on its doorstep. Within walking distance you can visit popular attractions such as Discovery Point, Dundee Contemporary Arts Centre and McManus Galleries. Furthermore, the bus and train stations are both within a 5-minute walk of the hostel.
Each building reflects the style and character of the time in which it was built. There are feature fireplaces, plaster cornices and windows of all shapes and sizes. All of the buildings even have their own little ‘museum’ full of information and artefacts from the buildings' history.

What people say
A really well located place to stay, right in the heart of Dundee. The
staff were very friendly, the room had everything we needed, including
coffee making facilities. We shared a very clean bathroom with only one
other room. We had a lovely view over the square, with all the coloured
lights in the evening was really pretty!.
The room was very spacious and the bed was very big in the standard double. The staff where friendly and set in a great location. all reviews »

like the location very easy right in the centre of the action.
Good Clean Comfortable Rooms.
almost everything.
Clean linens.
The shower head had to be held as the bracket was broken. As all the
doors were fire doors, they tended to slam loudly when they were closed,
which was throughout the night. It was quite hard to find as the
entrance is just a small doorway in between two shops.
we we not aware that towels were not available ... we could have brought our own, but the staff sorted us out. Also not aware of the shared bath room but it wasnt a problem ......
badly marked found it hard to find when looking for it too dark entrance sign, no lift room right at top and luggage heavy and difficult to carry up the small winding staircase, kitchen could be cleaner, rooms could have small tv access.
our window on the backside of backpackers,there was a karaooke bar there,and we wish that some of the singers had a better voice...........=).
The room has long been redecorated.
