One night stay
The stay was very good. Starter in the restaurant was loveky but both main meals a disappointment.
My cod loin was wet ,sloppy and not very warm.
Unfortunately we are both non complainers but we should really have said something about my meal last night.

Second Dakota hotel we've stayed in and loved it.
Great location.
Great facilities - the bar is lovely and has an outdoor terrace too.
Rooms are immaculate and come with Molton Brown toilettries.
Parking about a 5 minute walk away and not badly priced for city centre.
Room was lovely. Only downside was we were given plain white slippers vs the grey branded ones we got when we stayed in Manchester which are nice keepsakes. Other than that a lovely trip.

The rooms in The Dakota are lovely, luxurious furnishings and the comfiest bed.
There is great attention to detail in the public areas and the guest rooms. Everywhere smells lovely too.
Breakfast is good value and the Afternoon Tea is exceptional.
We keep going back to the Dakota because of the excellent Customer Service, all the reception, and concierge staff have been kind and attentive to our needs. Courtney and Grace are both a credit to the Dakota team in Leeds.

Stayed in one of the signature suites and it was fantastic. Really enjoyed my stay there and will definitely stay here again. I did get caught out with the parking refund but that was probably my fault for not reading the small print when I booked. You must rebook the parking with Qpark online and use the discount code provided by the hotel otherwise it’s full price.
