Perfect stay

We had a fantastic stay at Dakota Manchester. Staff at reception were welcoming and efficient. We chose to upgrade and so we had a canal side view and a separate bath and shower. The room is so carefully appointed with lovely touches like wool blankets/ throws , led magnified mirror for make up, 2 full length mirrors. Its very conveniently near the train station but quiet enough. The bar was buzzing both times we visited.

Steep Decline - One to Avoid…

Having stayed here several times now and noticed a steep decline in the place. Last time I stayed there, I was stuck with an overflowing shower which wouldn’t drain. Called management who said nothing was wrong with the shower - the next morning the whole bathroom was flooded. This time around, the shower fixtures were broken and falling off as I showered. The hallway stunk of cannabis and isn’t what I expected from a hotel where I paid over £250 for a night. Probably won’t be staying here again.
