This hotel is in a great location on the waterfront. The rooms are incredibly comfortable with every need catered for. The water side rooms have wonderful views and decks to enjoy them from. The breakfast provides many delicious options or the hotel is within walking distance to many restaurants and cafe. Would recommend staying here.

We enjoyed 5 nights at this hotel. Lovely modern building. The restaurant was very good and the staff pleasant and professional. The room was nicely decorated. Nothing special but nothing to complain about either. We had a lovely view of the harbour. The location is very central and there are lots of restaurants and shops nearby. We would return.

We had a lovely time at the Hilton. We were spoilt rotten and the staff thought of every last thing to make our stay comfortable. There was a huge cruise ship next door, which I imagine some people would be iffy about, but to us, that just lent to the vibe of being in the hub of the harbour. Being... More
