Stayed here on business (at a very busy time). Staff were attentive and helpful, and very apologetic when an upgrade could not be provided. Rooms were large, clean and modern. Bar downstairs looked good - only used it late at night for a post dinner coffee, but seemed to have a good buzz.

The staff were polite, the room, bathroom and TV all large, but this is not an exciting hotel. Nonetheless, it is in a good location with interesting shops and restaurants a short walk away, and transport close by.

My wife and I stayed here for 2 nights (Sat & sun) during May. We arrived a bit early but were told that our room was ready which was very handy for us. Room was nice and spacious and very comfortable. Bed was especially comfortable and had a great night’s sleep on both nights. Bathroom had a bath/shower which I... More

Was in London with my family on a holiday. Had a good time, the breakfast was good, the staff warm and service great Convenient location near the tube and also a mini mall. Me and my family enjoyed our stay and whenever we visit London again would want to stay at this hotel.

This was my first visit to London and I wanted to stay at a hotel that was comfortable and only required one bus to get to work. I found that hotel. It is not, as others have said, a "pretty" hotel on the outside, but since I don't sleep on the outside, I was not concerned about that. I arrived... More

Stayed here for two nights on a Superbreak package deal (paid for out of the compensation from the hideous Travelodge we stayed in two months previously on our last London trip.....read my other review...), and I decided to put my trust in the Hilton name. After all nothing could possibly go wrong, could it?? For those of you that don't... More

A disappointing stay. First the good points: for London the price was reasonable the rate included breakfast the hotel wasn't far from the Underground. Now, the not so good: the toilet wouldn't flush the bathtub was not clean the controls on the heating didn't work and couldn't turn the heat down the internet in the rooms didn't work and they...

Hilton Islington - situated a short walk from LU station Angel on Upper St - is not the fanciest Hilton hotel I ever stayed in but we got a great deal and we are more than pleased. Islington is a lovely area and there are loads of nice things to see and do just a few minutes away by bus... More
