Comfortable city centre location

The hotel beds are very comfortable although the pillows extremely soft, with no other option. Air con & heating in the room is a great feature, black out curtains and little noise heard in the rooms. The restaurant menu isn't great & the food not up to much, I would avoid eating there if you can. Tried ordering room service but couldn't get anyone to answer the phones. Breakfast is generic hotel buffet with limited healthy options. The in room toiletries are lovely & the pool with steam room are adequate for a hotel.

I am beyond disappointed !

Regrettable. We had a lovely theatre trip but chose the wrong hotel. We also complained to management as daughter had slip in the swimming changing rooms and attendant was not engaged/supportive or quick to respond to our suggestion of getting someone in to dry the place down and assess the safety. She had hit her head and there was absolutely no concern for her. I asked to complete an incident form when reporting at front desk. The gluten free breakfast was difficult to manage - there was no simple list and we had to speak with multiple staff to arrange our choices - I had asked at the desk on arrival the day before and was assured there would be a gluten free section but there was not. The server made reference to an area sometimes being there but not that day. We could not find it then was told it did not exist. Overall it was not a relaxing stay at all. At least the theatre knew how to show a fun time! I am beyond disappointed ! The hotel receptionist did a very good job and so compliments to them.

Lovely hotel but not perfect

Check in was fantastic, however bar service is painfully slow, with bar staff serving people that have just arrived at the bar whilst I was stood for about 5 minutes. Woken up this morning (Sunday) at 650am to load music playing for about an hour too. Didn’t think that this hotel would allow that sort of thing to happen.

Limited dining ...restaurant in the hotel had a menu like a pub..the choices were pub food and the food itself was very bland and expensive for what it was. Expected much more from a Hilton that charges top prices. Would have been better eating at a witherspoons.Wont stay again.
