 | Hilton Nottingham: The Hilton
|  |

 |
I keep a home in Nottingham, but i usually let it out to tenants, so on one recent visit, I looked for hotel special offers in the newspapers, and noticed there was one for the Hilton. Hilton hotels used to have a reputation for being some of the best 5* hotels in the world, but over time, they have fallen way down the pecking order. I stayed at the Singapore Hilton. for example, and was really disappointed. The room was so small and the hotel was just plain ordinary. It was not in the same class as Raffles. But, I stayed there because they had a special offer at the airport hotel desk, and it was cheap.
So, if you are expecting an international class, luxury hotel, you will be disappointed by the Nottingham Hilton. It is an old redbrick building and it all seems a bit faded. The biggest problem for me was finding a parking space. There is a small parking area outside the hotel and no free parking spaces anywhere else in the area. The hotel staff did help me find a parking place though.
The hotel is also on the other side of the city from the train station and a long way from the airport. If you travel to Nottingham by bus or coach, however, it is the most conveniently located hotel, as it is right next to Victoria Centre bus station.
The hotel is near the centre of the city, so you can walk to main shopping and nightlife areas in a few minutes. But, it is quite a long way from the main tourist attractions, like Nottingham Castle and the Robin Hood Statue.
The hotel staff were very helpful and friendly. There is an indoor swimming pool. The room was quite big and there was internet access and satellite TV. So, I would say, if you can get a special deal through the internet or a newspaper, then this is a good place to stay. But, if you have to pay the full room rate, perhaps not. Currently, the hotel is offering a special rate of £75 per night for a double room, including breakfast.
