I recently stayed at the hotel for a convention in May 2012 with my family. Having access to the executive lounge made a lot of difference to us. we utilized the swimming pool, Jacuzzi and sauna; while the kids were able to play in the paddling pool nearby. Health breakfast and lovely environment, spacious for the kids to play and... More

Very comfortable nights sleep and quiet considering the amount of people. Excellent... More

This is a very good convention hotel, adjacent to the National Exibition Centre ... a good place to stay if you're going to a trade show at the NEC. As a Hilton Diamond member, I was upgraded to the Executive Floor, and my room was comfortable, if not large, with a nice view. (Why don't European hotels have washcloths ...... More

I recently stayed here as a delegate for a conference. As such, I didn't have very high expectations, but was pleasantly surprised with the levels of service, comfort and culinary delights! As a vegetarian, eating as part of a conference is usually a hit and miss affair, but the team at the Hilton provided an excellent starter and main course,... More

We had upgraded to an executive room, which to our surprise included access to the executive lounge with complimentary tea, coffee and cakes are served in the afternoon and complimentary canapes and alcoholic beverages are...

Rooms are stuffy and small. The staff works hard to make up for things. Everyone was so nice, but beds are like sleeping on boards. Breakfast is adequate. They do have a free shuttle to train station that is helpful.

When we first got there we were checked in by a front-of-house staff member named Richard, and a young Italian woman whose name I have, regrettably forgotten. There was initially an issue with my card which was dealt with very professionally by Richard to ease any embarrassment experienced on my part. He maintained an amiable conversation with the friend who... More
