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.

Leeds is limited on five star hotels. The five star status is why we chose this location. It’s nice, but average for a five star establishment. The interiors are purposefully dark (nightclub dark). It’s very moody, but it needs more light, including the rooms, corridors and elevators. The pluses; staff are very friendly and helpful. The room was clean. A small range of complimentary refrigerated beverages in the room, including fresh cows milk (nice touch). Bed is large and nice and comfy. TVs in the living area and in the bedroom. Areas that need improvement; Wire shower basket doesn’t hold the Milton brown toiletries upright that are supplied as the gaps in the caddy are too wide. Towels; one on the heated radiator, the other tucked away in a basket underneath the sewing kit and other items (slightly strange set up). More space needed for your cosmetics and toiletries. Including hooks to hang travel kits (ended up hanging outs off the light fixture. Breakfast is okay depending on what you want. The full English was greasy. Overall I’d say the stay was fine. We made it work, but I think we’d explore other options if we ever return to 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.

Rude restaurant staff
Booked a table for 6:30 , when my colleague and myself went to the restaurant at 6:30 we were told that we didnt have reservation and madr to wait. Thier was only 7 other customers in the restaurant and lots of spare tables. We had to ask three times for ice and three times for the bill. The serive was very slow. The attidute of the male server was short and rude. We asked for the service charge to be removed from the bill as the service was very poor. This was questioned. The server took the bill and when he returned to the table he did have the bill, he said all on one card as we had no visablity of the bill we had to ask for it again. As we left the restaurant the male and female server where laughting and point as us. It made us very uncomfortable. To top thing off, when i went to my room the TV didnt work.

Bad for the price
Terrible service and attitude at dinner, asked for ice three times, asked for the bill three times, had the service charge taken off and the waiter came back with no receipt so didn’t know what we were paying. Left the restaurant and the staff were pointing and laughing at us. Room tv wasn’t working, kettle didn’t stop boiling unless turned off.

Really nice hotel! Very spacious and really friendly approachable staff! No parking out front so had to spend quite a bit for the car park that was a ways away. The did have a map on hand at the hotel and that was helpful! We arrived at night and being a big city we did have an encounter with a man that followed us back to the hotel that was yelling at us for not giving him change. As people from a different country it was a little bit alarming.
