Whilst I sit here enjoying this coffee I’ve a few minutes to reflect on my stay at the Hilton. My first instinct was to be dramatic and say that it was abysmal, but it wasn’t really, I’ve stayed in far worse. It was, however, very disappointing for a Hilton.

The staff were sub-par, inattentive on reception, housekeeping banging on the door despite the do not disturb sign, shouting in the public spaces. The building was ratty and tatty, the executive lounge simply was not either executive nor lounge. The food quality was really bad, this mornings sausages were cheap and tasteless again.

I’d not recommend this one until all of the renovations are completed, and even then I’d be dubious.
