Reviews for Dakota Eurocentral

Review 1:Food prices are on the high side and I'd like to see more vegetarian options on the menu.

Review 2:Staff are excellent, food is excellent, location is excellent (for me), rooms are very comfortable and well finished. Enjoyed my stay and in fact extended it from 2 night to 4 nights without fuss.

Review 3:Rooms are smaller than I've previously experienced within this price range and the view wasn't anything special.

Review 4:The ambiance in the bar area was sophisticated and the food and drinks of a high standard. I recommend this venue for business travellers.

Review 5:Was disappointed when we got back to the room and found out that room service stopped at 10pm, would have thought it might have been later than that. At times there was also a smell of stale smoke, I have a feeling this may have been coming through the aircon. The smell wasn't constant, we could smell it at times late on in the evening and then again in the morning. Reported it to reception in the morning and they couldn't have been more apologetic but I got the feeling it didn't come as too much of a shock, so perhaps something that's been reported before. This all being said I've still given it a good rating as overall it's a really nice hotel.

Review 6:The rooms are large and comfortable and well decorated, the bathrooms are large and the shower is great. The staff were all very friendly and couldn't have been more helpful, even knocked us together a wee sandwich after the kitchen had closed.

Review 7:No fridge in room. Nothing outside the hotel apart from offices and buildings. No entertainment it was New Year's Eve.

Review 8:Staff were excellent and so was food and service.

Review 9:we asked for milk to be taken to our room, it never appeared. Staff told us we could move into another area and enjoy a drink for as long as we wanted but never got any more service, very disappointed as that was new year.

Review 10:Staff were very helpful, service was first class, breakfast was lovely.

Review 11:could have done with a brighter light in room and a couple of drawers would have been nice . but they are just minor things.

Review 12:nice clean comfortable hotel friendly staff excellent value for money

Review 13:I loved how friendly the staff were especially on Christmas morning for having to work on Christmas morning they were so cheerful hardly in the lobby and 3 people had already said merry Christmas. The room was beautiful and the food was absolutely amazing.

Review 14:Desk faced away from TV so you couldn't watch TV and use a computer at the desk. The food in the restaurant was nice but over priced. Location is a tad remote and there are no decent restaurants within a couple of miles or more. Breakfast was massively overpriced.

Review 15:The receptionist who greeted me on arrival was warm, friendly and extremely helpful. Generally all staff in hotel and restaurant were friendly and helpful. Rooms were very comfortable. Shower was great and bathroom was spacious. Plenty of shower gel and shampoo provided unlike some hotels where you get a bottle barely big enough to clean a full grown adult. Wi-Fi connection was good enough to run sky go on a tablet. There was a wired Ethernet connection in the room.

Review 16:The hotel was very noisy on the 5th floor, we only had one towel for the shower. Also we asked for 2 drinks at the bar a processco and chambord, and processco and peach snapps and were told you's were not prepared to make them, I was then persistent and you's then served them to us. I was told it was table service in the bar but yet I had to walk over twice for drinks. It was a special evening as it was a supprise night away for my partner therefore I shouldn't be debating at a table over 2 drinks. Was pretty embarrassing.

Review 17:The room was lovely and the girl on reception when we checked in was very helpful. Also the young boy in the restaurant that served us was exceptional.

Review 18:Would be perfect if you could have the option of a later check out (12pm) and an earlier check in (2pm) as would like to stay a little longer to enjoy the experience more.

Review 19:The overall atmosphere is wonderful. Feel really relaxed as soon as you walk through the doors.

Review 20:The manageress in the morning ,very sour faced and not approachable the atmosphere changed when she was on reception all staff were quiet and not as happy. A bad manager makes unpleasant staff! No hairdryer in rooms.

Review 21:The room and the friendly night staff.

Review 22:The hotel was beautiful as was the room, don't think the location is great for a young couple looking for a night out.. Apart from that it's lovely

Review 23:Only thing is leaving, again only down fall but that's personal choice hotel only has showers and doesn't have baths.

Review 24:Can't fault the place it's my favourite weekend away and we love it here.

Review 25:Not bad exactly but when I ordered room service my meal included French fries but the tray didn't have vinegar or salt on it. Surely in the UK these are essential ? :-)

Review 26:Such friendly helpful staff who genuinely seemed to love their jobs. They couldn't do enough to help me.

Review 27:Thought the restaurant a little pricey but the food was excellent

Review 28:Very comfortable room, well presented, nice relaxing surroundings, fabulous shower, staff friendly and helpful. There was no problem with us taking the dog into our room (at no extra charge) and we were even offered bedding, bowls etc for him if needed.

Review 29:Very friendly staff. Quality room. Could be a bit brighter but the darkness makes the hotel different and certainly atmospheric! Breakfast very good and at a reasonable price.

Review 30:toilet not properly cleaned. very disappointed as this is a basic requirement! sink plug mechanism broken - water emptied onto my feet! Reported this to staff at check out - no action taken ref cost - no follow up response as requested

Review 31:comfort & standard of hotel, good food, friendly staff

Review 32:The location is perfect for a quiet night away- which is what we wanted but a bit far away from the town centre for tourist locations. Didn't have a shower mat in the bathroom and the floor was extremely slidey.

Review 33:The staff were lovely and friendly. Treated with so much respect as a customer. They even said happy birthday to my boyfriend cause they had it on file that's why we were staying.

Review 34:Gave lower score as if you don't have a car or get dropped off then it's a bit out the way. No baths in the hotel but that's me just being picky

Review 35:Everything , hotel is fab

Review 36:For a business trip the location was good, however, it is a little out-of-the way for a leisure trip.

Review 37:Very good hotel for business, good food and lovely staff.

Review 38:still waiting for my bill 2 days after it was promised. Some staff can be a little cold and judgemental.

Review 39:the comfort of the room and quality of food and beverages. Some staff were very friendly.

Review 40:Think that they're slipping here or becoming victims of their own success: slow service in the bar and no follow up to comment cards- why bother issuing them?

Review 41:Fabulous welcome - thanks to Georgia, who was happy to help me get the best room [looked at three]...when things went wrong with my food order it was credited [gratis]

Review 42:Hard to say. Bigger TV? (32") But a minor point

Review 43:An oasis after a long day working at concrete offices, so relaxing, especially the lounge area with a glass of red wine. The room (complete with music from Lost In Translation) as you enter immediately relaxes you and is high spec and very clean The monk fish curry at the restraunt is incredible

Review 44:I asked for a non alcohol beer and this was served in a beer glass with a handle as a lady I would have preferred this was served in something more stylish

Review 45:Food restaurant Shower size of shampoo and wash facilities were excellent as other hotels off miniature poor quality these were so good I had to ask for more

Review 46:bed was creaky at the slightest movement and the mattress was sagging at the edges which at times felt like you were going to fall out the bed.

Review 47:Excellent hotel as we have been before and would go again

Review 48:We enjoyed all of our stay at the Dakota and would recommend the hotel to friends.

Review 49:The room was very comfortable. Matthew who attended to us in the restaurant when we had dinner had a very personable manner, was efficient, helpful and friendly. A credit to the hotel.

Review 50:Checkin took forever, location is quite soulless, breakfast was extortionate and was incorrect when arrived. Need to up the game significantly for us to return, it was a 2nd stay and I doubt there will be a third.

Review 51:Nice atmosphere, decent bedrooms. Staff very polite.

Review 52:This hotel isn't for anyone it's for rich business people or celebrities. I came here for a special occasion and felt I was looked at differently because I'm young and didn't look the snobby type. I arrived about 4:30pm which was 90 minutes later than scheduled but my room was still being cleaned when I got booked in. The room was very small and standard and the beds were uncomfortable. The room service was very pricey and only suited those well off. The first dinner time for me was 21:45. I had a horrible experience here and wouldn't come back. Not worth the discounted £79 I got it for.

Review 53:The staff were very friendly but I didn't have a good experience in generally.

Review 54:Staff were nice room very clean would stay again as only 5mins away in car there was bowling pictures arcades lots to do and big fort shopping centre was a 10min drive away

Review 55:It is very dark in and around reception, not like mood lighting but dark like a light has been forgotten. Strange

Review 56:Lovely room, clean and comfortable, very nice staff, helpful and polite.

Review 57:while I don't mind paying between £5 & £8 for a drink, the size of the very small cocktails are not remotely worth the money. Also noticed from both my first and second trip, that if your sitting in the bar for a duration of more than one hour, you'll soon notice the music repeat itself over and over. BIG let down and probably more annoying to the staff who have to endure it for a full working shift. This really needs sorting out, and I'm afraid to say puts me off going for a third visit! The location is also poor unless your not planning going anywhere and if your looking for a room with a view this is not for you. Also feel the whole bar area is missing a ceiling, while its tastefully decorated, looking up gives you the feel that your on a building site with exposed air on ducts and cable trays in full view. Poor design on that note!

Review 58:This was our 2nd stay here, the hotel and staff are great. The food is to die for (compliments to the chef) and the room was immaculately presented. Can get the same service and quality for less if you shop around. But still worth a visit.

Review 59:Usually go for standard room but went for executive this time. We had to ask for the robes, and they were extremely creesed when they arrived. Only plastic tumblers in the room and apparently company policy now? The mirror was visibly dusty. Chap at reception did not appear interested when I fed back that I did not think it was worth the extra money...not sure why he asked how our stay had been?

Review 60:Staff and ambience warm and welcoming

Review 61:from book in till we left i well very pleased with the staff and the hotel-we were given a glass of bubbles as i had said only in the passing it was our anniversary-nice touch wife was impressed that helps

Review 62:No resrvation available before 9pm on the night of my stay despite trying to book at 3pm. Having said that I did enjoy the burger via room service

Review 63:Bed and pillows top notch

Review 64:I couldn't get the shower door to close properly so had a flooded bathroom. Also, we didn't get any biscuits which our friends did, also read on the website there should have been some in the room.

Review 65:The bed was comfy and the rooms looked good!

Review 66:The room was quite dusty. Breakfast was not included in the price of the booking which was not made clear at the time of booking.

Review 67:Size of room was good and location was easily accessible.

Review 68:The staff were brilliant . The bed was the most comfortable ever. We had drinks in the lounge by the fire and it was the most relaxed in a hotel I have ever been

Review 69:the only downside was when i checked in the woman could of been a bit more polite but when I checked out it was a different woman who was really friendly and made up for it.

Review 70:I like the style of the hotel and the cleanliness of the rooms and lobby.

Review 71:For dinner the chips were overcooked, we asked for then to be changed but the new ones that we got were the same as the first over cooked ones. Hotel would benefit from a pool.

Review 72:Staff were lovely and helpful. due to the hotel being busy when we arrived for check in our room wasn't quite ready we were given complimentary drinks while we waited and as we had a taxi booked the girl on reception took our luggage and had them taken up to the room for us.

Review 73:We were treated like royalty! The hotel is beautifully decorated and furnished and maintained to an excellent standard. We arrived late to a complimentary platter of fruit which had been left in our room. New were made so welcome I am just longing for the next opportunity to return.

Review 74:Toilet seat was not fixed properly and electric sockets were not easy to ge to (without having to move or crawl under furniture). Wi-Fi coverage was poor.

Review 75:Friendly and helpful staff with a comfortable room. As I was being picked up early, staff were accomodating at breakfast and at at checkout.

Review 76:The first room we were given smelled of cigarette smoke. When we told the staff we were moved to a different room immediately without any question.

Review 77:We were travelling from Aberdeen to Yorkshire so this was a great stopover. Handy location right next to the main road, but surprisingly quiet.

Review 78:That the only table available for dinner was at9.45 and as a paying over night guest it would have been nice to eat in the hotel at "dinner"time.

Review 79:The inside of the hotel was lovely and had a very warm feel.

Review 80:The constant "twilight" lighting throughout the hotel is a bit depressing. Staff look generally depressed and receptionist was a bit "dizzy" to say the least.

Review 81:Location, comfort, room.

Review 82:Contemporary design and style, food, service, staff just great. I had a slight problem in that my shower flooded the bathroom floor every time I used it but left a polite message as feedback and had an email waiting for me upon my return sying they would investigate and resolve along with a lovely note from a manager to personally assist me on my next visit - What a great experience!

Review 83:Some designer obviously thinks its a good idea to have the whole hotel in semi darkness. I don't mind this in the bar and restuarant but other areas, reception, corridors and rooms should be properly lit.

Review 84:Comfortable and convenient. No issues apart from the level of lighting.

Review 85:The lighting can be a little dark

Review 86:- Doesn’t look much from the outside but when you step through the front door its boutique luxury to a tee. - The rooms are well designed with large comfy beds - The food was very good and the service was friendly

Review 87:The street names have recently changed which disconcerted me -and more importantly, the sat av. Hardly the hotel's fault, but if this had been mentioned in the booking confirmation,it might have saved time and trauma.

Review 88:Very friendly and helpful staff. Decoration and ambiance of room and hotel generally. Food and presentation excellent. Good work space in room.

Review 89:Very dark, supposedly stylish lighting. Continental breakfast was limited and alatte was additional cost even when ordering a hot breakfast. No bath: Could have done with a soak after a four hour drive.

Review 90:Good price and convenient for the business parks in Motherwell. Friendly reception staff. Nice varied hot breakfast Free wifi.

Review 91:The dead moths on bed ( bedding was changed as soon as reported to staff) cobwebs above the window at the ceiling

Review 92:I liked the extremely comfortable bed

Review 93:The bed was really uncomfortable

Review 94:Loved the decor and it was warm n cozy. The waitresses and waiters were lovely, very attentive and helpful. The receptionist checking us in looked like she was having a bad day.

Review 95:We stay here quite often when visiting our family in Glasgow, easy to park, excellent express checkout. We used room service for food this visit as we couldn't get a table. The service was quick and the food excellent as always.

Review 96:The cocktails were not good. Very watery and poor looking. Didn't taste like a cocktail just a glass of see through juice. Only had one because of this

Review 97:The room was lovely and the rose petals were a nice toucj

Review 98:Leaving!

Review 99:Cool, relaxed atmosphere. Fantastic steak and selection of wines. Very friendly staff who are always happy to help. Second time staying, will definitely be back!

Review 100:Watch when booking a table, if they have a function they try to steer you to a time saying it's very busy, we had the option of 6:15 or 8:45, we chose the earlier option and many tables were empty the whole time - not so busy then.

Review 101:Room was clean and the bed very comfortable. Dog bed was provided with feeding dish, dog loved the bed couldn't get her off it. Food was excellent although a bit pricy.

Review 102:Everywhere was in the dark with low lighting. I suppose to create an ambience which did not work for me. No food allergy information on display on menus or in restaurant in contravention of EU directive December 2014. Raised as business colleague has an allergy stressed this to waitress and chef ignored it. Not the fault of waitress and when identified management were very good. Breakfast order taken and then poached eggs delivered cold, toast had to be asked for and appeared to cause problem for waitress who tutted. Management again rescued this.

Review 103:The location was handy for the business trip as only 5 minutes from where I wanted to be. Handy for M8 and noise from Motorway could not be heard. The reception staff and management were very very helpful. The bedroom and bathroom were spacious and clean delivering all that was required. The hotel is very impressive on approach and appeared to have ample car parking.

Review 104:Our room was freezing and very dark, so much so that I couldn't read the air con thermostat. We had to have it activated remotely by the Manager....After eventually finding the tea/coffee, it had to be placed on the floor as the flex would not reach from the table. A plug socket beside the bed for phone charging would be beneficial.

Review 105:Staff were friendly and helpful, beautiful reception and bar area.

Review 106:That I couldn't get a cocktail to my room I arrived really late and wanted to relax with a cocktail but when I looked at the menu it only had champagne and beer and cider

Review 107:Lovely, comfortable, clean excellent would not think twice about staying here again loved it

Review 108:we had to wait over an hour for our food to come and as we weren't having starters as you can imagine that was a very long time to wait,this was quite disappointing.

Review 109:Great place with friendly staff,lovely place to have a quiet overnight stay.

Review 110:Room is good value, but I cannot see why the restaurant needs to be so expensive ? Aimed at Corporate travellers on expenses.

Review 111:Location and presentation.

Review 112:Very slow bar service despite the bar area being very quiet ,actually had to go and retrieve our own drinks after waiting 15 mins, seemed to be plenty of waiting staff milling about doing nothing !

Review 113:Luxurious rooms

Review 114:Location excellent with very curtious and professional staff. Relaxing atmosphere and great food. Free WiFi wod wod enhance the experience but would recommend the hotel none the less

Review 115:Hotel location great for motorway links and only 10 miles from Glasgow but not much on doorstep

Review 116:Easy access from M74/M8 ,Clean with friendly staff , good restaurant and excellent value for quality rooms and surroundings..

Review 117:Internally depressing thanks to subdued lighting & dark surroundings. No bath in bathroom. Food is comparitively expensive for what it is.

Review 118:Modern chiq comfortable, easy to find. Decent food.

Review 119:My GPS could not get me to your location. It took me an hour to find the place. Also - my friends GPS could not get them there either. They could only get there thru an extensive phone conversation with one of your staff at the front desk. She practically had to talk them in. The storage shelves had very poor lighting - and I don't see all that well in the dark anymore. Also - the trash container in the bathroom area - the one with the footpedal - is very impractical. When you try to depress the pedal with your foot - the whole container is so light that it starts to move with it. Seems like a design that didn't quite work right.

Review 120:Nice room - a little small - but comfortable for a single traveler. I'd not recommend it for two people. I like the "chic" designs in the lobby and in the bar/restaurant area - and my friends were also impressed.

Review 121:Scotland really lacks some modern comfortable hotels. This wasn't one of them. Great location with easy access. Staff on arrival were great as they were throughout my stay. Meal in bar was very nice and fab service. Room very stylish, modern and comfortable and lots of little extras others don't.

Review 122:There was nothing

Review 123:Wonderful staff Superb decor Restaurant fabulous our cats had a 5* experience & were made just as welcome Overall quite simply an experience second to none

Review 124:The fact the lighting was so 'atmospheric' (i.e.a bit dim) meant that I couldn't read and adjust the settings for the air-conditioning unit. Used torch on mobile.A very minor thing in the great scheme of things

Review 125:The general ambiance was great; dim lights and nice atmosphere. Check-in and check-out quick and efficient The room was large and well appointed with everything I needed. Shower was lovely and hot Breakfast was very good and well served. Very reasonable price. Well placed next to motorway was very convenient for getting to Falkirk. Usual Scottish level of friendliness

Review 126:Breakfast costed £54 which is too much for egg and toast. There was weird smell outside the hotel which was off putting

Review 127:Staff was accommodating Bed was comfortable It was clean

Review 128:The bar prices were over priced! £32 for 2 pints of lager and 2 vodka's/mixer. We were asked to secure £50 on our card at check in which would cover any spends, not sure why this was necessary when we explained we had cash, but this was still needed. The temperature in the rooms was difficult to get a happy medium with and was generally cold. I think it might be to do with the brick wall.

Review 129:I liked the bedrooms. Really comfy with everything you need. Décor was really nice and the staff were extremely friendly.

Review 130:Leaving ..

Review 131:Stayed in this hotel around 15 times this year.. Couldn't fault it for comfort, cleanliness, nice food, good atmosphere , friendly staff and as always love the suite !!! Spacious, comfortable big bed.. 10 out of 10 Dakota.

Review 132:When we arrived room was not ready and we were reallocated. However we did get locked out of this room because booking out system locked down too early. The time taken to receive drinks was shocking and drinks ordered were not always what was ordered.

Review 133:The desk staff were very good, only let down by specific staff taking orders. The environment was very artistic and relaxing.

Review 134:Only thing was the wardrobe area in the room which could have done with some lighting

Review 135:From the time we arrived our first impression was really nice and our stay just got better as it went on we would definitely use the Dakota again

Review 136:Great location easy access to M8 East or West Calming and relaxing atmosphere Wifi access for business traveller Good food and attentive, friendly staff
