WELCOME TO

DOUBLETREE BY HILTON DUNDEE

The impressive and sentimental story of Doubletree by Hilton Dundee is one that holds a place in the hearts of many local people in Dundee and Angus.

Historically a Scottish Mansion House and traditional family home built in 1870, the original features and intricate detail in the house still exist today including the romantic latin inscriptions around the private and intimate family chapel. In 1965 this family home became a small privately run hotel and from there developed into Dundee’s most exciting and award winning hotel.

DoubleTree by Hilton Dundee has recently been rebranded, formally known as The Landmark Hotel. The hotel completed a £4m refurbishment, was awarded Dundee Hotel of the Year for the third year running in April 2013 and was recognised with an AA Rosette for a unique and exquisite dining experience; making DoubleTree by Dundee a truly luxurious wedding venue.

Arrive and check in at the hotel before the big day unfolds and spend some well-deserved relaxation time indulging in our fine cuisine and tranquil surroundings.
