4 Best Hotels in Fife and Angus, Scotland

Run by welcoming and helpful hosts, this homey B&B in a Victorian town house has seven comfortable rooms in soothing colors with modern, unfussy bathrooms. Bountiful breakfasts are served in a handsome dining room and feature local produce and both hearty and healthy options, including full Scottish breakfasts, pancakes, and Fife berries.

Scandinavian-style rooms with easy chairs, plump bedding, and flat-screen TVs help you unwind at this contemporary quayside hotel. For more relaxation or to work up a sweat, head to the Japanese Yu Spa and fitness center. The Quayside Bar and Grill has views of the harbor and globally influenced menus that include à la carte sharing plates of 28-day aged rib chop and a three-course set menu featuring battered hake and tofu paella for £27.

Located in a converted jute mill, Indigo's loft-style aesthetic of exposed brick, timber flooring, and grand industrial design is cleverly dressed in Scottish fabrics and complemented by comfortable modern furnishings and spacious bathrooms. The funky lobby and public spaces have interesting exhibits exploring Dundee's industrial and cultural past while bistro-bar Daily Tasker serves steaks, burgers, seafood, and vegetarian options. 

British brand Malmaison has brought life and a dash of panache to a dilapidated but much-loved Dundee landmark near the new waterfront. The rooms are richly toned, veering on dark, with firm beds, soft bedding, and lush throws. The glamorous but slightly garish first-floor restaurant and cocktail bar, staffed by slightly scurrying staff, make it popular with young couples. Be sure to hold your jaw shut as you climb up the stunning elliptical spiral staircase, where the light of the cupola shines like a twinkling eye.
