I stayed here a few weeks ago. It's really quite a nice property but with some negatives to consider. Location is excellent being only 10/12 minutes easy stroll along the river to the heart of the old town.
I booked a standard King Guest Room with Courtyard View & was upgraded at checkin to a King Deluxe River View Room. I was surprised & quite impressed with the room which felt more spacious & a little more luxe than the Hilton website indicated. It has clearly had a refresh at some point with very nice seating options (good chair & sofa) & comfy bed/linens. Views from the windows were stunning.
There is a rooftop bar which offered stunning vista up & down the river & I enjoyed an ice cold beer & a tasty Club sandwich. Well worth a visit, albeit the weather in early September was superb.
Breakfast was, frankly, awful IME. Really basic cheap ingredients. Nothing appealed to be honest. Nasty cubed fruit salad in some kind of syrup, dried out mini cakes/pastries/croissants (why not a decent, full sized croissant?)
I asked for fresh cooked fried eggs as the dried out congealed eggs on the buffet were dire. I made some toast (poor bread too) & settled for that. Coffee was meh too (there was a Nespresso style machine in the room FYI).
Service in general was friendly & pro-active (apart from breakfast where staff were zombie-like, lol). The rooms are comfortable. Location is great. Bar service, drinks, food very good.
Despite the comments about breakfast (just pick & choose very carefully) I do recommend the hotel & would stay again.
Thanks for the update…..I will take all your comments on board.
I arrive here Monday morning around lunchtime, booked king guest room with courtyard view, preupgraded yesterday to a king deluxe room ( it doesn’t say “ water view” but I’m led to believe all deluxe rooms do ) .
I’m here with my lady for two days so will do the usual live reporting for you guys…..
