This was our 2nd stay at Dakota Edinburgh & we still loved the quality of the rooms & facilities. The only disappointment was my meal on the evening which was swiftly rectified ‘ removed from the bill with complete apology. Can’t get much better service than that, so thank you.

Positives: Room was a great size, with beautiful modern decor and with everything we could need for toiletries and amenities. Including shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, soap, cream, shower cap, vanity kit, face cloths slippers and dressing gowns. We were in an executive room. We had a coffee machine and tea making facility with biscuits, crisps and water for us too. The room had plenty plug sockets and USB ports. Delighted they were at side of bed. Sky tv was in the room so easy to work. Bed was super comfy and super comfy pillows too. Dinner…. WOW! This was just delicious, food was well cooked and came out piping hot and no long waits. Negatives: my check in was not as good as the person beside me. I didn’t get told where the elevator was, how to book a meal, what floor my room was on, about WiFi, about breakfast etc. I got a fill out for your car and sign and here’s your room. All while person beside me was properly “looked after”. Service for drinks was slow when we were waiting for our dinner table we weren’t looked after in that respect so probably lost some extra drinks out us as we were sitting empty a few times. These things which were negative didn’t impact our stay, just little niggles. Will definitely be back.
