River View Room
We stayed for a night for my partners 30th birthday, he used to live in Dundee and we had our first date in Dundee so it was a nice way to walk down memory lane. On arrival the lady at the desk was pleasant and shared we had a room with a river view which was a nice little surprise since we hadn’t paid for a view. The room was mostly clean but the throw on the bed had an unusual stain on it (underside) we just threw that off the bed as we were only there 1 night. Chromecast on the tv didn’t work but not a massive issue as we weren’t staying to watch tv. Durin our sleep an alarm went off it was particularly loud, I was startled and awoke asking my partner what it was (not going to lie we were drunk) he thought it was my phones alarm so we went back to sleep after I turned my phone off! It went off again and after a third time we tried to phone reception from the room phone which didn’t work. I ended up phoning the hotel after googling their number to be told someone had brought in a smoke machine to their event and they were trying to ventilate the space and reset the alarm. Only concern I have is the alarm wasn’t continuous - not sure if they’re meant to be if it’s just smoke - whereas at home my smoke alarm would be constantly going. Some areas of the hotel had evidence of general wear and tear but not anything significant. Other than this it was a nice break but we have stayed in better Malmaison hotels.
