Staff were great, but didn't enjoy the room. Bathroom smelled of sewage so we didnt fancy drinking the tap water and shower door was broken so floor got very wet. Also thin walls so could hear everything from outside and upstairs. Lights in the room were very weak so it was hard to get ready at nighttime.

Friendly and helpful staff. Parking was pretty rubbish though, the car park only has a dozen or so spaces and getting a spot is pot luck, also a bit pricey at £25. The building itself is very big and beautifully decorated / furnished. Had a very nice stay. Although strange that check in is from 4pm, we have been to dozens of hotels and 3pm is generally check in time.

Few little things. When checking in we were told the room number but not told where to go for breakfast or where to go for our room. For our room We were just told to turn right when going through the doors which would of taken us to the road. When in actual fact it was the building opposite the hotel entrance. It would of helped if he just said that wand what the building was called. Then when we eventually found our room the heating just blowed out cold air. So all we had was a little electric heater. So the room was cold most of the time. Also the shower leaked, the water was spurting out the showerhead over the floor, so had to have a bath everytime. Just things that should be checked i think before a room is available.

Not great, for a Hilton! Checked in fine, was told to come back at 4:00 when the room was ready, went back at 4, got told it would be 10 minutes and got asked to sit in the bar and wait for someone to come and get us. 16:45 no one come, went to desk, still messaging about, gone 17:00 by the time we got to our room. Heating unit noisy, blood stains on the or ironing board. Asks for a late check out to return to the room at 12:00 to the cards not working. Poor experience

Not unique but sometimes lacking in some hotels, this is the service, friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. They were, without exception willing to ‘go the extra mile’ to help.

Whilst the staff were pleasant, the room was a little tired. We had booked a 2 room family room for 3 adults. We checked in to 3 towels, mugs etc. but there was no bed made up or bedding for the third person.

First the good bits - decent location immediately outside city walls at Monkgate and decent breakfast. The bad bits: VERY LIMITED PARKING, which is not mentioned in the hotel description with only about 15 spaces including 4 electric and 3 disabled bays. During my 3 night stay, the car park was full with only 1 car actually using a charger, and 1 registered disabled badge holder, the rest were regular cars. The alternative is a public car park 300 metres away at £25 per day. I stayed in a ‘motel’ room - my room door opened directly onto the car park, where at 7am the foodservice and laundry trucks arrive right outside my door. Room was only partly made up on the last night - and the drains in the bathroom stank.

Upon checking in, my husband and I were given room keys to occupied rooms, not once but twice! This seriously delayed our check in and left me witb no confidence that our things would be secure as I was able to waltz in to two people's rooms. It was supposedly down to a glitch in their system, but it's lucky I didn't walk in on any compromising situations. I was given a free drink for the trouble while the third room was checked to avoid the same mistake a third time, but no money was refunded off our stay. The third room we were put in was a bit tired looking with marks on the mirror, desk and walls but it was okay. Parking was very limited as well so we had to park further away from the building which wasn't the most ideal with the check in experience we had. We did end up staying the full duration of the 2 day trip as I couldn't find anywhere else to stay so last minute. We didn"t have any further issues, despite a bit of noise outside when we think Bins were being collected which I suppose can't be helped. Overall, I would not stay again or recommend as it definitely wasn't worth what we paid, or the stress and hassle it caused.
