Great location and a lovely staff, but Hilton always manages to disappoint. Here was yet another uncomfortable mattress I can only describe as worn out and at these rates I just have to ask, is it luxury when the bath has SO little counter space you have to set your shaving kit on the closed toilet seat every morning? Maybe I’ll try a Hilton again in another five years…

Renovated Upscale Central Location

This hotel is in such a fantastic area, it is 20-min walk to anywhere and even better rideshare ride, and the metro is right there too. The room was large and very comfortable. The staff were great, and again amazing location. Hotel is well done, upscale, and clearly recently renovated. Great for a London stay. We were never more than 20-mins away from anything we wanted to do.
