    helpful staff

    This place suits me perfectly with reliable Wi-Fi, a lovely bar area, and helpful luggage storage. On my first visit, the staff recommended a taxi service that I still remember. Each stay has been enjoyable, and I’m excited to come back for a holiday.

    The room was fantastic with air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, and a coffee machine. The shower was great, featuring a rainfall option, and the bathroom had quality toiletries. The fitness center was a nice touch to unwind.

    The hotel has a sleek, modern design with stylish decor that gives it a classy vibe, reminiscent of early aviation aesthetics and Art Deco elements. The executive lounge offers an impressive cocktail menu with a wide variety of spirits, and the bartenders are skilled, making for one of the best bar experiences I've encountered.

    The bed in the executive room felt like a rock, which made for a rather uncomfortable night, especially considering my back issues. the rooms are quite dark, which may not suit everyone, and I found the shower had a damp smell that detracted from the overall experience. For the price, I expected more convenience features, like a fridge or safe, and the distance from the city center proved cumbersome, taking nearly an hour by bus each way. Not to mention the lack of transparency regarding shuttle services—expecting one only to find it's not available on weekends was disappointing.

    stylish decor
    noise issues
    communication gaps

    Modern and stylish decor, luxurious rainfall showers, variety of dining options

    The noise issues from service elevators disrupted my stay!!! Communication gaps regarding amenities made it frustrating to enjoy the full experience. the lack of plug points near the bed is practically a crime!!!

    temperature discomfort
    billing issues

    Luxurious rainfall showers, modern and stylish decor, strong Wi-Fi connectivity

    Room temperature was difficult to control!!! It would be better if there were brighter lights in the bathroom and closet!!! More attention to billing accuracy would enhance the experience!!! Key card access can be frustrating!!!

    my stay at dakota was fantastic. the staff were incredibly professional and helpful, making my last two days in scotland memorable. they went above and beyond, printing boarding passes and arranging shuttles. the double room was designed brilliantly with all the comforts you could need. the bar offered nice drinks, and the dining was superb, especially the final dinner. the hotel was truly a serene retreat!

    hard mattress

    Great stay with a few bumps

    Had a fab time at this hotel! The staff were super friendly and even offered a taxi to the airport for me. The room was neat with nice decor. The restaurant had some good options. But ugh, the mattress was pretty hard, made it tough to sleep well. Still, I'd totally recommend it!
