At Dakota we recognise that one of the greatest luxuries in life is time. Your time is precious, you want the best, you want the simple things done brilliantly. Who would have thought you could drive off a motorway and find a bedroom like this. Fresh cotton linens, soft wool carpeting and deeply comfortable beds.

Exemplary service, with as always a fantastic range of drinks and food. I will comment however that despite the restaurant and bar being rather quiet the service was slightly slower than preferred for drinks that were not complex to make. However due to the beautiful surroundings it was a pleasant wait. I would highly recommend both a stay and dinner or even just passing drinks at the Dakota. It's interior is stunning and the service is fantastic.

A very stylish hotel including a nice restaurant. I don't normally care much for "industrial chic" but this is fabulous. Moreover, the staff are friendly, helpful and courteous. This was my first visit to this Dakota, Edinburgh and I shall definitely be back. I have been to Dakota, Glasgow but wasn't so impressed with it.

I was very impressed with this hotel, despite the location not being ideal for a short stop in the city centre. Upon arrival the staff were very welcoming and friendly and the room itself was sizeable, spacious and really well decorated. The bed was incredibly comfortable and the bathroom had all the amenities you could wish for. The rest of the hotel didn't let the impression down either - all of the public areas maintained the high level of decor and the restaurant had a high end vibe. I would certainly consider staying here again and it offers brilliant value.

A designer's dream hotel, as if Massimo Vignelli and Giorgio Armani decided to take thousands of bolts of dark gray cashmere and build an icon to sleek, cozy, deep rich comfort. I've been here twice, and I love it as much as any hotel I've visited anywhere. The Bar and Grill both get ***** as well. Curl up in luxury.

Loved our stay here at the Dakota! The staff was incredibly friendly, helpful, and thorough. We started our Scotland vacation here and we are more than grateful. With a great use of mirrors and lighting, the room feels like a modern designer bedroom rather than your typical hotel stay. The bathroom waterfall shower is an added bonus! I really appreciated the USB outlets located in the room for our cell phones so we didn't have to use our plug converters.

This place will go down as one of my favourite hotel stays ever! The staff are friendly and inviting, the entire place is chill, understated but classy and cozy. The room is small but the space is maximized, the bed was big, raised up and comfy af! It doesn't feel or look like a hotel room, I felt like I was a guest at a very rich friend's house.
I actually wish my bedroom was that legit! We spent sometime in the bar/lounge and it was very cool, lots of seats but still intimate. They had the most delicious cocktails, one of my favourites was a Rhubarb Gin drink My husband made it down to the Restaurant for breakfast and said the food was really good so there's that too. All in all, a legit hotel and I'd definitely stay there again.

The Dakota Deluxe is only missing one star for me because it lacks a spa (but I am rather picky). Other than that this place is an excellent new addition to Glasgow's hotel scene. I was lucky enough to be shown round all the different styles of rooms. The standard room is very reasonably priced at around 120/night, it is luxurious and very swanky indeed, personally I think it is the best value for money and not too different to the other more expensive rooms.
There is one room 'The suite' that comes in at 750/night, its like a little apartment, much bigger in size and it has an adjoining door which can be shut and an area that can be used for business meetings. The colour scheme is very on trend with a mixture of shades of grey. I really liked the interior design, in the downstairs restaurant there is a 'Jack' theme; all the pictures on the walls are different celebrities with the name Jack - some trickier than others to recognize.
I think my favorite room was 'The library' were you can see a selection of cigars and can order drinks to your table, its a small room fitting around 50 people, excellent for private parties. The food is top notch, I had scallops, followed by a monkfish curry and then a couple of tasty cocktails. The menu too is reasonably priced considering you feel like you are in Manhatten in some swish restaurant. The Dakota Deluxe will not disappoint!
