I arrived after a 9hour drive at 9pm to find no parking, when entering the very small car park it takes you off to a divert of 10 mins to find your way back. Was then asked to park 5 mins down the road and to lug all my luggage in the rain. Was welcomed by possible to rudest person I have met in a long time and I work in sales so that really is saying something! She was very unhelpful, was not willing to offer any help or alternatives. Carpets to the bedrooms look like someone has had a mud fight and ground it all into the carpets. Digital Door key would not work so had to obtain back at reception. The fact I had breakfast included hadn't made its way to the restaurant so I had to prove that which was fine. The girl there was SUPER polite so that was nice to see at least 1 person working there was pleasant. I then had to make my way back in the pouring rain with all my luggage back to my car the next morning in a nice suit ready for my next meeting! It is a shame is it is a very nice building and the food was good. Just needs staff that actually appreciate the customers paying their wages and a car park bigger than a shoe box which really should be mentioned before booking.

The staff were friendly and the room was nice but the breakfast was a little disappointing. The little jug of milk for tea/coffee was sour and the hash browns were anaemic. I expected better from a Hilton and have had better breakfasts in cheaper hotels.

It's a smart hotel - very corporate in image. Staff are very helpful and it's clean. The shower in my room didn't work - I think that the head was blocked in some way. Bed was a bit hard. Breakfast could so easily have been better - not a lot of choice. The choice of fresh fruit was disappointing. But the evening meal was outstanding, hot and excellent value. Overall it was pretty good value for money and I'd use it again.
