Reception staff was not at all helpful and seemed put out when asked questions. Room was tidy but the carpet was stained and the furnishings were worn. No electrical outlets near the bed, closest were on the far wall. Both the sink faucet and the shower faucet leaked constantly. The cleaning staff seemed very kind.

Due to the noise from the room next door we had no sleep the fist night so we cut our stay short . The burg plug did not work so you could not take a bath which as a good thing as the bath was dirty.The bed was not to the standard you would expect from a Hilton Hotel.When we told the receptionist that we were checking out early and way she did not attempt to resolve the issue.As a result we will never be back to this hotel again

The hotel is very tired in areas and could do with a repaint in the corridors and room with perhaps a carpet clean or replacement. The room was not exactly clean and needs some attention to detail within the showerroom, windows and surrounding frames. We stayed here a few years ago and is was certainly not the same experience as then. We paid almost £172 per night for two nights bed and breakfast through hotels.com when in fact when checking the price for the dates during our stay on hotel.com it was available for £64 per night plus breakfast on the same nights. This would have been £80 per night. We did question this with the hotel reception and all they could give us was a free bottle of wine with our dinner on the evening of our Wedding Anniversary which was the reason for our stay. The room was very small and disappointing and we had to change room as the shower was in the bath and my wife has mobility problems albeit the room with a walk in shower was also very small with not much room in the shower either. We did used the swimming pool facility and found this satisfactory. The food in the restaurant was also excellent and the staff attentive at dinner and breakfast.

The property was lovely if not slight worn. Our Junior Suite had torn curtains which wasn’t ideal. We asked to take some snacks (bread and olives) out onto the terrace and were told no because of health and safety but then a waitress brought food to a couple sitting next to us. The food was lovely and thoroughly enjoyed.

Hotel smelled like cleaning products. No staff to help with bags and you have to carry up the front steps because there are no ramps. Carpet in bedroom was stained. No mini fridge. Room was just outside elevator so it was noisy. Cable was broken and it took staff an hour to show up to fix. I wouldn't go back there are way better places for the price. Dinner was good though.

Stay in the main building.
Our stay was less than grand. The first night we were put in the grotesque Sterling Wing, with its dilapidated walls, musty smell, non-functioning lift and faulty toilet. We asked to be moved. The second night in the main building was much nicer. The staff had a bit of an attitude. They seemed to want to be helpful but were defensive. They need better training. Surely Hilton can afford to put some money into this property - it has a lot of potential.

The disability accommodations were incredibly helpful. Staff was nice and its a very pretty hotel. The only issue that we had was the massive flooding in the shower from the drain being clogged with hair before we got there. They fixed up the issue and mentioned making sure that cleaning staff is more frequently checking the drains.
