I am a Hilton Gold member and stayed on a 2 night pleasure trip. The rooms are nice, spectacular view on upper floors, great housekeeping, nice and quiet except for some distant freeway hum. But charges for everything: internet, valet parking, even per minute charges if you use the computer at the business center. Very poor service at the restaurant... more

I enjoyed my stay here as it was quiet and comfortable. We had a great night in the bar drinking tasy cocktails and all the staff were friendly. It is so close to Universal Studios and there is a complimentary bus that leaves regularly. Great quality food! more

I have stayed at this hotel several times for business. The rooms have always been spacious but ever since staying here first in 2006 the common areas have needed updating. It's outdated in general. The hotel is situated up on the hill by Universal Studios and in terms of sites and restaurants, is only accessible by foot to City Walk.... more

Room was just right for 4, plush and modern. Restaurant in lobby looked upscale. Walking distance to attractions, would stay again for the convenience to citywalk and studios. Parking fee, internet fee. more

Stayed Dec 30-Jan 3 for Rose Parade & Bowl. Rooms nicer than expected. Cafe' Sierra food less than average - mostly geared toward Asians. Seafood stays out 24/7. Odor overwhelming. Service just average. Concierge not nearly as helpful as other Hiltons. Great location. Easy to get to Hollywood, LA, Beverly Hills. Room service took almost 2 hours. Hotel is surprisingly... more

The Universal City Hilton is next door to the theme park. I stayed in an Executive Club room (worth the extra- it includes a good quality buffet breakfast). The room had a superb view over the park. If you are visiting Universal, this is probably the best place to stay- it's the closest hotel to the park, so you don't... more

The Hilton is located within walking distance of City Walk at Universal Studios. It was great to walk over for meals and shopping. Just be aware that parking is $17 (self parking), no free internet or continental breakfast. You don't even have the convenience of printing out your boarding pass without paying extra. Our hotel room door was left ajar... more

This is the best hotel. We arrived early on our arrival day to be greeted by Linda at the front desk. She was more than helpful and actually arranged for an early check in for our two rooms. Much appreciated after a 13hr flight with three children. Beds are the most comfortable hotel bed we have ever slept in. Great... more

This Hilton is my LA Hotel of choice, particularly as a Hilton Honors Silver Level - they go out of their way to provide the best room available. more

I spend lots of nights per years in hotels traveling for business. That being said, it is tough to impress me or to even break out of the norm. The Hilton Universal City did both. I arrived early but my room was ready. The food in the Sierra Cafe (had the chicken & sausage alfredo) was terrific and the service... more
