“Lovely place but a couple of recommendations”

We booked here as we were visiting Harry Potter studios and the deal was fantastic we got 2x tickets, and 3 nights stay (3 breakfasts) for around £400 as a package deal which i found incredibly reasonable. However we did go mid week (tues to fri) Cost around £8/£9 for an uber one way to HP Studios … lisää

We booked here as we were visiting Harry Potter studios and the deal was fantastic we got 2x tickets, and 3 nights stay (3 breakfasts) for around £400 as a package deal which i found incredibly reasonable. However we did go mid week (tues to fri) Cost around £8/£9 for an uber one way to HP Studios but we paid £15 as we had a large foldable wheelchair that needed to fit into the boot so if you need to take a large wheelchair (anything larger than 90cm id recommend booking a uber XL as these have larger boot space). We did email and let them know we needed a accessible room but we heard nothing back and we were so busy we never rang to ask but equally we didn't hear anything back to confirm we had a accessible room so we just hoped they sorted it for us which they did but would have been good to have a email confirmation back to say it was sorted prior to arriving. Check in was quick and easy. Wheelchair access is around the side of the building towards the end of the carpark. I would just say the slabs need looking at when you go up the incline that immediately feeds off the carpark, its a slightly steep incline and a couple of the slabs are uneven and slightly wonky, fortunately i am a ambulatory wheelchair user so I was able to get out the wheelchair and walk up the uneven ramp but I think it might be quite daunting for somebody to go up them slabs especially if they were new to using a wheelchair, it may not look that bad from first glance but when you are going up and down it in a wheelchair it is quite uneven and it tilts your wheelchair to one side. Room was great we had room 100 which is right next to the lift so great to go down to breakfast, you come out of the lift and breakfast is immediately to your left so not much walking if you have mobility problems and the room was close to the check in desk so not too bad either. Ive seen a review about room 100 being very noisy but it wasn't, maybe they unluckily had rowdy guests during their stay because the noise levels were not bad at all, you could hear the lift pinging but it wasn't majorly loud. Nice selection of teas and biggest tv i have ever seen! Also the room comes with a fan which is a mega bonus as I cant sleep without a fan. Room did seem very hot though, maybe temperature needs adjusting slightly we had the window open most nights in December so must have been hot. Room came with face flannels which was great and thick toilet paper not cheap thin stuff. Breakfast was tasty loads of options cooked breakfast cereals pastries ham cheese etc... there were some lovely vegan sausages as well but they weren't labelled so had to ask what they were, maybe with better signage people would know what they are but they were over by the mushrooms and hashbrowns so kinda figured it out... but for vegetarians or vegans who are very cautious about accidently eating meat maybe a sign would help... most of the other foods were labelled though. All in all a great visit. Im quite a anxious person and I didn't feel like I was judged there, hilton seems to have a reputation of being for business men/women and sophisticated clientele but honestly I felt like i fit in there in my casual clothes and trainers, it seemed high standard but not too 'posh' the staff treated you with respect but they were also chatty and down to earth which I liked, I didn't feel pressured to act like somebody I wasnt, I felt relaxed and had a great time. I would definitely stay again, thanks for a great visit! I also have pictures of the uneven paving stones if management would like to provide a email address I can send them over.

“Helpful staff, decent food, handy location.”

Generally a positive stay. Easy access from motorway, bar & restaurant staff were helpful and car parking was included in the stay which is positive given the ridiculous additional charges some hotels are now charging. Evening menu had decent range of options, was well cooked and arrived quickly. … lisää

Generally a positive stay. Easy access from motorway, bar & restaurant staff were helpful and car parking was included in the stay which is positive given the ridiculous additional charges some hotels are now charging. Evening menu had decent range of options, was well cooked and arrived quickly. Rooms themselves are a bit tired now but were clean and comfortable. Nowhere to walk to from hotel as is on quite a busy road but generally a good base for one night.

“Decent rooms albeit a bit dark”
