Private Dining & Meeting Space
Pros:

We were hosting a Roadshow, overnight stay with dinner & a strategy session the following day all based at the Dakota Leeds - we can't thank Kiran Matharu and the entire team enough for looking after our Board and guests - the private dinner space and strategy in the private room the following day was perfect for our requirements and kept it unique to our guests only.

We absolutely love the Dakota!
Pros:

After a previous issue that I don’t want to mention, we were given a free stay at the Dakota in a signature suite. The room is beautiful, practical and spacious!
We were looked after from start to finish with complementary mini bar, champagne and snacks in the room. The bed was extremely comfortable and we had a brilliant nights sleep.
Molton Brown products in the bathroom are a brilliant extra touch and the showers are very powerful.
Everyone that works here goes above and beyond for their customers.
We will definitely be back!
