No thank you
I would always expect The Hilton to be exceptional - unfortunately standards have dropped. Beds squeak ever time you move, bathroom needed renovation, paper cups for water are not eco friendly, dirty windows , towel rail hanging off, slow service, the list is endless we would not stay again in this hotel.

Great area but the property is run down and needs a revamp. The room smelt terrible like a bad toilet smell, and the shower was mouldy with a stain shower mat. One of the worse stays I’ve had when travelling to london. On the other hand it’s conveniently located but that’s about it. I almost thought I was walking into a mix of a poor holiday in and a 1990’s casino.

This was our second stay (our first was in 2016) and we loved staying here again. It could use a little updating of the rooms (the only outlets for charging our phones were across the room from our bed) and the tv wasn’t able to connect to our streaming accounts even though it was a smart tv. We would also love a microwave in the room, but I’m not sure if it was just the price point we were staying in or if none of the rooms have microwaves. Overall though, we love the area and I really enjoyed using the workout space this time. Room service was great, very good food and didn’t take long to have it delivered.
