Business traveller
Disliked: Staff & service
An horrific check in with zero professionalism and empathy by the receptionist. The duty manager was conveniently on a ‘break’ when I requested to see him. I was treated like a conman because I couldn’t immediately produce my credit card I had booked the accommodation with and when I did, was asked for photo ID. Last time I looked, this was NZ, not some other country. Great way to treat business guests. I could go on about lack of training, lack of respect, noisey tourist guest, closed restaurant on a Monday, no dining table or even desk to work on in the room..but frankly, I can’t be bothered. If this is Hilton at its best, I won’t be back…EVER

Not Clean. But nice enough.
Dirty room, furnishings worn. I found bottle caps by the bed on the floor. Furniture fabric coming apart on bed and lounge chair. Coushions worn and dirty. Aside from that, the service was wonderful. All staff were friendly. Rooms are nice and quiet. Beautiful location on the lake, nice for a morning stroll. Easy parking (paid). Room service had Dairy Free options. Mushroom risotto -beautiful. Was charged $5.00 tray fee, weird. Overall a relaxing stay, I ended up staying another night.

I’ve had an amazing time! Especially the front desk was extra helpful and I was able to book myself in to the Hilton pool for one day next door. The room was spotless and I had everything needed for cooking/baking. The GYM is also at the Hilton hotel next door and can be used for free. I would just wishes for a brochure to get more information about the location/hotel/directions. Other then that 5/5 ✨
