Not the relaxed stay we hoped for because of the awful noise
Pros:

It’s central location

Cons:

I didn’t like the fact that we had disturbed sleep every night with the awful noise from the building we were in constant banging of doors , and thudding footsteps

Not as good quality as the double tree hilton I stay at in Bath.
Pros:

I wish there was a machine to get hot water so I could have a hot cup of tea instead of hot water from a jug.

Cons:

The bathroom was a little bit shabby, the soap dispenser was empty, there was no lock on the bathroom door and there as a hole in the door filled with toilet roll.

Hotel and staff were great, but eat somewhere else for the evening meal.
Pros:

The rooms and hotel was very clean. The staff were all friendly and helpful.

Cons:

The restaurant menu, for a Hilton Hotel, was extremely poor. We could get the same sort of menu at a cafe or burger bar. The food produced, however, was of good quality.
