Very busy place, plenty of different areas and food choices, all food was warm, kids loved the pizzas, sushi and Chinese section. Not to mention all the ice creams and cakes to choose from. Overall we have been a few times now and every time it has been good. Good option with the free refill soft drinks, is slightly pricey in my opinion for both buffet and drinks especially only getting 90 minutes, trust me it soon goes.

From the outside it looks like a small castle keep. None the less I wandered in and was stunned at the £12.50 entry fee. But I paid it, and boy am I glad I did! The castle is more like a Tardis - bigger on the inside. And staffed by guides who talk at length about a subject if prompted. There is reproduction armour to try on and weapons to examine. Stocks, a pillory, demonstration for children and great views over the city. The ticket is valid for a year, so I can always go back again.

It was a bit old-fashioned and vague/pale. The food was not bad, but also not splendid. Not spicy enough. Not the best Thai I’ve ever had, but OK if your expectations aren’t too high.

Gym swim sauna and steam room facilities were great. Food was excellent. Right in the centre of Dundee so good location if wanting to head out but enough to keep you at the hotel. Really nice stay.

Orton Grange Cafe has friendly staff, a beautiful interior and is spotlessly clean, but like so many others have said, the prices are too high and the food isn't value for money. £ 3.50 for a small piece of cake and £ 3.20 for a coffee is OTT, considering other cafes in the area charge considerably less. I won't be coming back due to the high prices for mediocre food and others have said Orton Grange Cafe charges over the odds for small sized meals. This cafe, which is part of a well liked food hall specialising in local produce, should maybe look at cutting their prices to reflect what other places charge in the area as they'll lose custom.

We paid £150 for a standard double room for one night. The view was not good and the room was average unlike the images on the website where the room looks great. It was OK but nothing special. Overpriced for the room and standard of breakfast.

A few of us went on a Friday night who have never been before. The concept of Italian tapas was explained and we ordered accordingly. The food was fabulous, the fritto portofino was particularly amazing as was all the pasta we had. The place had a really lovely atmosphere. The big issue though was the disgraceful state of the ladies loos. Out of the three, only one was working, one was completely blocked (and disgusting) and one had a tatty out of order sign on it with the sanitary towel box sat on top of the loo. The taps were wafting about in the breeze and it was generally in a poor state of repair. These things matter Cicchetti, talk about fur coat and no knickers!

Have been to Ballumbie for a meal on a number occasions and I have always had a nice meal with friendly service. Recently went there to try the hanging kebabs with friends and the kebab was very tasty with a good choice of sides. They had a good selection of cocktails on their menu and throughly enjoyed my time here. Will definitely be back.

Lovely staff working in the sweltering heat today - please sort it! Air con is needed. Coffee/cake/service was top notch.

This museum has got a bit of everything - great paintings, including some of our favourite Pre-Raphaelites, really good sculptures, armour and weaponry, fantastic architecture of the building itself, ceramics, furniture and cabinetry, and a sofa designed by Rossetti. The star of the show for us was the building itself - mosaic floors, decorated ceilings, very convincing ‘marble’ columns (they are actually plaster, painted to look like marble), a fantastic array of statues - the whole place is exquisite.

Now a frequent haunt of ours. Very chilled out vibe. Nice bar to actually sit and enjoy. Nobody is rowdy. Good food and no pressure to spend money.

This is one of the best museums I've ever been to. The exhibits really get you thinking and we had a fascinating debate with one of the guides about the destruction of the Colston statue and modern day slavery and the right to protest. Make sure you allow enough time and drop a donation in the box on your way out.

I am extremely fortunate be a member of the spa at Homewood Park. I swim regularly in the lovely outside pool and always find it a peaceful and relaxing experience. It is beautiful setting and the staff are all so helpful and work so hard to keep the whole spa looking and feeling great. I have recently had course of five massages with Veleria and they have been some of the best massages I've ever had! I'm sure I'll be booking more soon.

We were skeptical of a buffet, but after seeing the rating from all the positive reviews, we decided to check it out. The atmosphere is nice, the service is excellent, and the food is great. Try the Indian food for sure and don’t forget about the chocolate fountain. Pro tip: dip the waffle pieces in the chocolate fountain.

Arrived early and had a drink at the bar. Taken to our table right on our booking time. At first the service was slow, but that improved and by the end we were impressed by how good the service was. The food was amazing. Overall, fantastic food and fantastic service, a bit pricey for what it was, and lighting wasn't bright enough.

Had the loveliest of nights away this weekend at the Doubletree by Hilton and will definitely be returning. When checking in we were given cookies for bedtime which was a lovely gesture Was fortunate to have a room upgrade to a Canal view room on the 10th floor and the views were amazing, just a shame it rained the whole time we were there. Hotel is ideally situated for visiting Leeds good location and not far too walk to shops, restaurants, bars etc. Hotel is spotlessly clean, very modern.
