Simply put, we expected better. Bathroom and room were both so small. The hotel lobby was underwhelming, crowded and messy. Breakfast buffet very ordinary. The location was good for what we needed.

Disliked: Amenities
No television reception, they assured me that by changing rooms I would have reception after doing this there was still no reception. I have been told by staff and other guests that the T.V. problem has been going on for the last 6 weeks. They are constantly jackhammering the walls during the day you cannot rest or work while this is going on. They should at least warn people about these problems before you complete your booking so as you can make an informed decision. I did receive a reduction but had to argue hard for it, I would have much preferred my stay to have been peaceful and relaxing as a 5 star experience should be. I was also amazed how the staff at magic would lie that there were no problems especially when they would answer (after a long period) and say they were having a higher number of calls everytime I rang.

HIlton is a great hotel. However it was so busy that it took forever to get a lift that wasn't already full and breakfast was at least a 25 minute wait to get a table. We took the Exec Lounge package; on the evening it was unconfortably overfull. Not such a great overall stay.
