I know that this is a common sentiment with respect to this property, but frankly I never really understood it - I found the WestEnd Hilton to be preferable just by virtue of it being on the Pest side; I also personally liked to spend time in District XIII (some of my favorite restaurants etc. are there). Agree that the HGI (which opened more recently than my last visit) is better yet, and also completely agree on the Prague property.

My comment, though, was actually less about individual travelers and more about the seemingly insatiable demand of the river cruise-industrial complex, many of whose guests are Americans in their 60s and older, and thus for whom I would think Hilton would have a strong positive brand association.
