Dakota Glasgow offered a very comfortable stay with standout service. Helpful staff, available around the clock, and room service was reliable and convenient after a long day of recreation. Our room was nicely furnished, with a great minibar and a clean feel, though we did notice occasional dust floating when it would catch the light.
Enjoyed an exceptional breakfast via room service. For dinner, the restaurant was adequate, though a few menu items didn’t quite hit the mark. What stood out was the thoughtful anniversary acknowledgment, with a sweet treat and a beautifully handwritten note, which made our stay feel special. The location is also a plus, as it’s an easy walk from the train station without luggage. Overall, a pleasant stay with warm hospitality. If in Glasgow again, I would certainly return.
The lady on reception who seemed to always be there (!) was so friendly and welcoming, The room smelt so clean when you opened the door, it was large and really comfortable. The room had everything you needed included a complimentary mini bar with water and some beers. The ensuite had an excellent shower and big towels. When checking out we asked if there was another Dakota hotel at our next stop but unfortunately not!! Highly recommend and will go back.
Very comfortable, classy, upscale feel hotel with friendly staff and a lovely breakfast. Discounted parking available nearby was a bonus - highly recommend.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Staff were very courteous, what a welcome! The handwritten note was such a beautiful touch which made me feel right at home.
A very comfortable stay, when we woke up I felt like calling reception to ask if the room was available to extend our stay!
Will certainly be back.
What a place! We stay in Glasgow every month or so but this was our first stay at The Dakota! Absolutely superb. Attention to detail is brilliant, but it’s the staff that make this place- true five star service! We booked a signature suite and it was beautiful. Turn down service, well stocked complimentary mini bar - huge bathroom, with feature bath tub. We loved Jacks (the cocktail bar), super menu and service. We booked the Dakota grill for dinner and it was superb. We usually head to Porter and Rye in Glasgow for a steak, (which is always fab), but Dakota was equally as good. Again great service, the sides are delicious and the steaks (fillet, CB) were prepared to perfection. Can’t wait to stay here again!
