From the moment we drove up to the hotel, the service was impeccable. All the staff from concierge, to reception, to the bar staff and restaurant staff were well mannered, well trained and welcoming. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. The food, wine and cocktails in the restaurant were excellent. We have stayed in other Dakota Hotels around the country and we have had similar experiences in each one. It’s a great hotel group. The only thing I would suggest is to have bathrobes and slippers already in the rooms, rather than having to request them.

The Dakota is a great place. It's comfortable, well-appointed, with pleasant, helpful staff. It makes a lot more out of its bar than its restaurant, however, which gives a clue as to what sort of clientele the hotel aims for. I found the service in both the restaurant and the bar realllly slow. Other than that, it was a great stay.

Was just okay.. wouldn’t stay again especially for the price. Only good thing was the location. Man on the reception when checking in was very rude. I rang down and asked for a straw I waited 30 minutes before just going down to the bar and getting my own, the initial one I requested never arrived. There’s absolutely no food on room service in the evening which is crazy to me. I genuinely don’t know how it’s got 4.7 stars. 3 is generous to me, it’s a 2.5 in my opinion.
