Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel offers beautiful and clean rooms equipped with everything one could need, but the service can be improving. The location is convenient for exploring the city, with cool light fixtures adding charm. The dining experience is good overall, but some areas need attention. The hotel facilities are functional and satisfying for a comfortable stay.
The hotel offers spacious and well-equipped rooms, with a wonderful view and comfortable beds, though there was an issue with the internet connection. The service was subpar, with instances of unfriendly behavior from staff members. The location was convenient for exploring downtown but safety concerns arose at night. The dining options were limited, and the hotel lacked some facilities expected from a typical Hilton.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were very comfortable and reasonably quiet overall, with a large size and nice window views. The service was exceptional, with extremely friendly staff who went the extra mile to make my experience great. The location was perfect, especially for attending events at the Kimmel Center across the street. The dining options were diverse and delicious, although the pricing strategy could be improved. Overall, a wonderful experience with a few minor drawbacks.
The hotel is in a perfect location downtown, right across from popular theaters and within easy walking distance to great restaurants. The rooms are spacious and clean, though some areas show wear and tear. Staff members are generally friendly and helpful, with some exceptions. The dining options are diverse but on the pricey side. The hotel facilities are well-maintained overall.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was perfect for my needs, being close to the Kimmel Center and other attractions, but there were issues with the service and dining experience that fell short of my expectations for a Hilton Hotel.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms were clean and comfortable, with two queen-sized beds, making it cozy enough for a good night's sleep. However, the service left much to be desired with rude and unfriendly staff interactions. The location was excellent, right in the heart of the city, offering easy access to transportation and attractions. The dining experience was satisfactory with a good breakfast spread. Despite some drawbacks, the overall value for money was decent.
