Dakota Manchester Reviews from The Last Year
Definitely room for improvement
The service in the restaurant needed work, the knives were taken away and replaced with steak knives before we had eaten our starter. We requested mixed toast at breakfast and only white arrived,we asked for sauce and didn't get any. Our mattress was broken and very uncomfortable
A very relaxing laid back hotel
We had an extremely relaxing stay. The room was spacious with a canal view. The staff on reception were friendly and the gentlemen sorting the valet parking were really nice. We ate in the restaurant before going out for the evening and the food was superb. The staff were highly knowledgeable about gluten free which was reassuring. We also had breakfast the next morning which was very good.
Fantastic Service
Great experience at Dakota. We have stayed in a lot of the 4 and 5 star hotels in Manchester and beyond and I do think this is the best. Fantastic rooms with all the amenities and spotlessly clean. We’ve been lucky enough to stay in some of the best hotels in the world but The beds, pillows and linen were some of the best we’ve had. The service on reception was among the best we have ever had and the lady was extremely informative and helpful- just brilliant and so welcoming. Service in the lounge also fantastic! We arrived and were greeted by the concierge who parked our car for us and fully charged its battery, also left water and mints in the car for us for departure. We are looking forward to coming back and this will be our hotel of choice in Manchester when coming for concerts and events.
Classy joint
Classy tip top joint in Central Manchester walking distance to Piccadilly. Boutique hotel at its finest. Rooms a very decent size and decor very on point throughout the hotel. Restauutand and bar a great space, breakfast superb. Not cheap but you get what you pay for. One minor point - all rooms should have Robes and a Nespresso machine :-) Its sort of what you expect at this type of establishment.
5 Star Hotel and Service
This was my first visit to a Dakota hotel and it did not disappoint. On arrival Eddie from concierge parked our car and James on Reception was very welcoming and explained all that we needed to know. Our room was on the 5th floor and had everything you could need including a hot tong slate mat! The bed was extremely comfortable and as the hotel does not offer twin beds, we had asked for an extra duvet so we could effectively sleep in twin beds - this definitely helped! The bathroom was vast and the shower was hot and powerful. Great little touches in the room with the Nespresso machine and bottles of water in the mini fridge. We had drinks in the rooftop terrace and all the staff we encountered were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was execellent and a good choice of pastries and cereals on the buffet. Will definitely return if I have a need to return to Manchester - or try one of their hotels in other cities.
Amazing 21st birthday celebrations at Dakota
We had the most amazing stay at Dakota for my daughters 21st birthday. Diamond was so helpful organising balloons and champagne and made sure everything was perfect. Looking forward to staying with you again soon. Thank you so much for making our stay so special.
night in Manchester Dakota
Lovely hotel, the room was delightful and the bed comfortable the staff were so polite and friendly and helpful stayed for Sunday lunch it was delicious would recommend to anyone we will be coming back. we look forward to a great reception and comfortable stay
Weekend away treat
Fantastic hotel in the heart of Manchester. Comfortable well furnished room and bathroom. Good breakfast and great staff. A real treat and worth every penny. Dinner in the restaurant is a must, especially if you like steaks. Conservatory for drinks or a light snack worth a try.
Mr Manilow
From walking through the door everything was perfect , the staff the atmosphere just total chill zone. Our only negative was that all the controls and information was accessed via the tv remote and at the age of 80 we are technophobes .reception provided us with all our answers and James was exceptional - Bed comfy pillows comfy breakfast superb thank you def come again
Amazing service Dakota bar & Grill
We arrived at the Dakota Manchester for drinks and food on the terrace it was a beautiful day we were met by Abbey on reception to the bar she was amazing found us a table and took us to it very polite and bubbly she is a credit to your company . We were sat at our table and Ben the Bar manager came over to greet us and thanked us for returning he made sure we were served straight away and looked after us through the day he is a credit to your company we will definitely be returning very soon many thanks Mandy & Martin Sherwin

Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?

Prepaid Reservation Fee |
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.

Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it? |
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.

I just cased out some money yesterday and was quoted payout by 6/19 then today cashed out again and was quoted 6/22 for today’s cashout. Why would it take 8 days to get paid?
Give the best answerUnsold listings bug?
Idk if this is related to the unsold listing % rule but I have listed 6 reservations and sold 5 of them and my unsold listing percentage is ~45%. For some reason the unsold listings have not been converted into sold ones. Does this happen only after the payment is released following the booking or is it an issue that needs to be addressed?

Give the best answerHonest review of AT and advice to new joiners
Forget trying to snipe reservations online by waking up early and booking top restaurants at Carbone or Tatiana or Cote or 4Charles. After 2.5 months of booking reservations by setting up alarms, waking up early to sell appointments. It’s very hard to cash out on this app. During cash out, you have to pay $5 fee +3% transactions fee and max payout per day is $150.
Advice to new users:
- do not mass book reservations
- fill bids only
- don’t try to book reservations online, you need connections and call the restaurant
After putting in about 40 hours of work, I’ve made about $750 sale on this platform but gotten paid $0. Take this with a grain of salt.
Fraud
I believe this site to be a fraud. I paid $158 to get a reservation. Now they want my SS # and other private details in order to supposedly repay me.

Give the best answerPayouts
Hello All,
I don’t know what else to do as I can’t transfer my cleared funds to my bank account. Customer support is close to non existing and not helpful. How can we keep selling here if we can’t withdraw what we have worked for. They say I have to wait 180 days. This is ridiculous!
Via Carota
Hi all! I have a reservation for Via Carota for tomorrow for 2 people at 4:45PM for only $10 if anyone is interested!!
Give the best answerPayout limits? Have 1k…
Am confused about the payout restrictions. Have nearly $1k sitting, wanted to withdraw some and am surprised to see I can only withdraw $50. If i have to do this everyday I’ll end up paying over $90 in fees just for withdrawing via ACH which doesn’t make much sense to me. Have opened a ticket regarding this, but any input or advice would be appreciated
Give the best answerIs Appointment Trader Doomed?
Looks like New York passed a bill making it illegal to sell a reservation without the permission of the restaurant. Is this the end of appointment trader?

Give the best answerAny seller support?
Has anyone found a way to get a question answered? From what I can tell there is no way to get in touch with anyone that works at/for AT. Other than the occasional admin posting a consultation offer here and there they are non existent. A lot of people have the same issue I have where we cannot cash out earnings. I cannot get my warning medal removed even though I am under the threshold. Sad to say but seems like AT is holding up everyone’s funds currently. Very scary and makes me wonder….Please reply if you read this admins and can help. Tried every way possible to get in touch
Give the best answerWhat happens if someone changes or shows up for their reservation after I buy it?

Give the best answerRestaurant Bought/Canceled Their Own Reservation
I accepted a bid for a popular restaurant in Los Angeles only to receive a phone call shortly thereafter informing me that the reservation had been canceled due to it being listed on AT. I of course need to subsequently cancel the reservation on AT but get this warning that my status will be negatively affected for doing so. I've reached out to customer support about this several times with no response, not sure what to do in this station. Hoping someone can advise.

I need to be paid for the two reservations I sold as a new user before I do more work to get and sell reservations only to not be paid. Can someone get back to me so I can get my funds. I don't understand the error message about the percentage. PLEASE HELP!
Give the best answerQuestion about postpaid listings for prepaid bookings
I have a prepaid reservation, but I'm allowed to transfer that reservation to others for a price that I set (up to the total price I paid).
For selling POSTPAID reservations, do I charge the buyer the full amount of the reservation when transferring? And then the buyer pays something on top of that (which is what is listed in the AppointmentTrader listing?)
