The rooms and prices
Telephone House offers a genuinely broad room range for a single building, from en-suite rooms in 5 and 6-bedroom cluster flats through to a full ladder of studios, including Premium Studios (17.6 to 20.9 sqm), Luxury Studios (18.7 to 26.7 sqm), Penthouse Studios with elevated city views, and the top-tier Penthouse Executive Studio at 25.4 sqm. En-suite rooms come with a three-quarter bed, dedicated study area, and ample storage, with a shared kitchen and living space for flatmates, while studios add a private kitchenette and larger living area for full independence. Rent is all-inclusive, covering tenant-controlled electric heating, unlimited hot water, Wi-Fi, and contents insurance through Howden for Students. Guide prices range from around £170 to £290 per week depending on room type, so confirm current rates at booking, given this is a new, in-demand building for the 2026/27 year.
Location and getting around
Telephone House occupies one of Dundee's most recognizable buildings on West Bell Street, sitting right next to Abertay University and just a short stroll from the University of Dundee, so both campuses are genuinely on the doorstep. The location puts you close to Dundee's cafes, bars, restaurants, and shops, with green space and transport links also within easy reach. Being a brand-new building for September 2026, Telephone House benefits from a fresh, modern fit-out throughout, including a landscaped courtyard for residents to relax outdoors. Local bus stops and Dundee Train Station are both within a short walk, keeping the wider city and day trips to Edinburgh or Glasgow straightforward. My tip: As Dundee's newest hall, Telephone House is likely to be in high demand for the 2026/27 intake, so it is worth inquiring early if the location next to Abertay is a priority for you.

The honest picture
Telephone House's standout strengths are its genuinely unbeatable location right next to Abertay University and close to the University of Dundee, a fresh, newly built fit-out for 2026/27, and an amenity set that goes further than most Dundee halls with a dedicated yoga studio alongside the gym. The honest counterpoint: as a brand-new building opening in September 2026, there are no resident reviews yet to draw on, so you are booking on the strength of the specification and location rather than a proven track record, which some students may want to weigh up. As always, confirm your specific room type and current price before booking, since the room range here spans a wide price bracket from en-suite to Penthouse Executive Studio.
Who Telephone House Dundee suit?
Strong fit: Abertay University students who want to be right next door to campus; students who want a genuinely new building with a broad choice of room types and budgets; those who value extras like a yoga studio and landscaped courtyard.
Weaker fit: students who prefer to see established reviews before booking a hall; those on the tightest budget, since Penthouse-tier studios sit at the premium end of Dundee pricing.
