Hotel is convenient for travels using the business park nearby or airport nearby. However hotel doesn’t provide breakfas
Pros:

I liked the location, cleaniless of the hotel and the warm staff members. I appreciate the free parking and complimentary water bottles. It was really nice that the hotel had happy hour and a place for guests to gather. Hotel offers coffee and tea service.

Cons:

The take & go snacks were very limited. Also, the breakfast buffet should be included in the price since there weren’t many options for breakfast near the hotel. This lowered the overall rating of this hotel.

+ Airshuttle, location, humans at the front desk. Definitely will stay here next time.
Pros:

The best thing was the 24-hr airport shuttle and its proximity to the airport. The location was safe. It also has the standard amenities and services that Hilton provides such as luggage storage. It's a big deal that there are humans to talk to at the front desk. The soap, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash were Crabtree Evelyn. Generous towels too! I definitely will stay here again next time I'm in Santa Rosa.

Cons:

They couldn't offer dinner due to a systems glitch. But the friendly staff suggested the restaurants right next to the hotel and the movie theater. I ended up eating at Masala Express. The person who got my order was grumpy, but the food was the best Indian food I've tasted. Definitely will eat there again!

Excellent choice near the Sonoma County Airport
Pros:

It’s friendly with good facilities. There’s a small restaurant that serves an actual breakfast, not just a buffet. The rooms are well equipped.

Cons:

The windows in the rooms do not open, so one has to live in air conditioning at night. I like fresh air.

Easy, concveient Stay
Pros:

Had a nice stay at the Hilton Garden Inn after arriving late at night at the Santa Rosa airport. We did have a minor issue with our Diamond food credit, however, the next morning Lisa helped us out and resolved the issue. Emily was helpful answering pre-arrival questions. Well located hotel for our needs that evening.
