The room was comfortable and clean. The bed was noisy and there was NO HOT WATER for a shower. Excuses from staff were appalling and they were badly informed about breakfast costs.

Room very comfortable and clean. Lovely bathroom. Unfortunately, there were events on in the ballroom two floors above and the very loud music made sleep difficult on both nights. Would definitely stay again, but in a room on first floor instead.
The staff were friendly and the room was nice but the breakfast was a little disappointing. The little jug of milk for tea/coffee was sour and the hash browns were anaemic. I expected better from a Hilton and have had better breakfasts in cheaper hotels.
Great hotel for business with a gym and a lovely harbour location

Great service, but the hotel is a bit worn.
Brilliant welcome from the reception team and the beds are comfortable but the carpets are really grubby and the walls are very thin so you can hear the next room almost word perfect. The hotel is located in a brilliant area with loads of restaurants nearby.

It's a smart hotel - very corporate in image. Staff are very helpful and it's clean. The shower in my room didn't work - I think that the head was blocked in some way. Bed was a bit hard. Breakfast could so easily have been better - not a lot of choice. The choice of fresh fruit was disappointing. But the evening meal was outstanding, hot and excellent value. Overall it was pretty good value for money and I'd use it again.
