Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Travelodge, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on a higher floor (above the 2nd floor) for a quieter stay. The hotel's proximity to Dundee Road may result in some traffic noise, but being higher up can help minimize this. Additionally, rooms on the west side of the hotel (facing the city) tend to receive more natural light and might have a better view of the surrounding area.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the ground floor, especially those near the service entrance, as this area may be busier and noisier. Rooms near the lift may also be more prone to noise from guests and staff movement.
Best views
Rooms on the west side of the hotel (facing the city) may offer a view of the surrounding area, including the River Tay and the city centre.
Quietest floors
3rd floor to 5th floor
🔊 Noise notes
Traffic noise from Dundee Road may be a concern for rooms on the lower floors, especially during rush hour. The hotel's location in a residential area means that there may be some background noise from nearby homes and gardens.
Insider tips
Consider requesting a room with a fridge, as this may be a useful amenity for guests staying for an extended period. If you're driving, be aware that there are limited parking spaces available, so it's a good idea to book a room with a parking space in advance to ensure availability.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Top Attractions in Perth
💡 Ask at the door for the key to the tower — if it’s unlocked, you can climb narrow stairs for a rooftop view of the town.
💡 Look for the small exhibition in the side chapel about the church’s role in the Reformation. The tower is not open to the public.
💡 The free guide leaflet at the entrance is worth picking up—it points out the hidden piscina and the 15th-century roof bosses. No photography during services, which are at 11am on Sundays.
💡 Check the small upstairs gallery for rotating contemporary exhibitions — often overlooked by visitors.
💡 Head upstairs for the small but excellent natural history cabinet with taxidermy and curios. The lift is slow; use the stairs if you can.
💡 The stained-glass window in the lobby is original but often overlooked; stand directly underneath to see the detail.
💡 Start at the bench near the old harbour wall at low tide — you can spot seals hauled out on the sandbanks.
💡 Go on a weekday morning to avoid school groups. The top-floor art gallery often has overlooked works by local 19th-century painters.
