There should be improvements on the followings: Wall papers are coming off along the hallway to rooms. Bathroom should be modernized removing those dangerous baths to most modern cubicles. Lobby toilet doors should be replaced or sprayed Thanks

Arrived just before lunch, check in time 3pm, checked in straight away. The receptionist asked why were were visiting, my daughter said, it's Mum's birthday. 20 mins later there was a knock on the door and the receptionist and another staff member stood outside with a bottle of wine, 2 glasses and a card and sang Happy Birthday! What a lovely surprise! Lovely hotel, we only stayed 1 night, price was very reasonable considering some places we have stayed in London which were terrible were the same price! Plenty of space in the room, well lit, clean and quiet. Convenient for the tube. Would definitely stay here again.

This hotel is convenient to Tube station and local grocery and pubs. Staff was wonderful . Beds are very poor quality and shower tub combo may be impossible and dangerous for elderly to use. Keeping water in enclosed shower was difficult resulting in much water on floor.

Hotel staff could not be more helpful and friendly. However the hotel needs a complete refurbishment. The hotel is old and tired, the carpets are stale and musty. Definitely not what one would expect from a Hilton, especially a flagship.

Needs decor updated

Hotel staff very pleasant. Breakfast very good.We had a squeaky bed every time I turned.Got back late so didn’t bother to ring reception. Only stayed one night. Decor needs sorting out. We used Tesco points to pay so maybe that’s why we didn’t get a good room. I would come back again but would ask for a different room next time. I’m sure they would of changed room but we didn’t get back till after midnight.
