Arrived 6pm, preupgraded last night to a king deluxe family room from a king guest room.......to be fair it's very nice!, a little worn but fine, great view of Dartford bridge, huge super king bed, fridge sofa and chairs.....could qualify as a suite if there was a partition in middle ( it's very big )...... no drink chit but some chocolate truffles in room ......robes but no slippers.
Off to have a swim and sauna .....will report back !

Rubbish sleep, bed reasonably comfy but creaked a lot, this hotel still does the " bill under door at 3am " concept here, I like that.....Ł5 for parking and it's all ready on the bill so express check out after breakfast.......will report back!

....... breakfast was actually very nice, a little pushed for time as I had to catch Eurostar to Brussels but very nice nonetheless....... coffee is self serving but there is a Starbucks also.
Swift check out via express and I'm on my way.
CONCLUSION- it's ok......nothing amazing, the room was very nice and huge however the bed was creaky and last it's best......
I would stay again but avoid room 419 shame.
ROOM NO - 419
NEXT STAY - Hilton Brussels grand place. ( I'm here now! )

I didn’t press him for details but I remember him telling me, he stayed about a month back.

We stayed earlier this month. Was ok but not great considering the price. I am gold. I noticed during the day at work (stayed on a friday) the we had a deluxe room upgrade but by the time I had chance to OLCI it had been revoked! The bathroom was very tired, room itself ok. Nice dinner experience although prices far higher than the quality of food. Breakfast was very good.

Had another stay this week and this time the deluxe room upgrade stuck. Got cookies too (prepackaged not the usual DT). Difference seemed to be robes in wardrobe, mini fridge and really nice refurbished bathroom.

Checked in and room wasn't ready. They called housekeeping and told it would be 15 mins. Reception gave us comp drinks voucher for the wait as I'm just gold. Fortunately bar staff didn't collect our token so will hopefully get another free one later. No water offered or upgrade. In a queen family room but just the two of us. We paid 95gbp

Looks just like the standard room we had in early Nov. Although possibly we had a higher floor.. the deluxe room didn't have the sofa(bed??) just a singled stylish easy chair. Not convinced the higher room was better on that front...
