Hilton Garden Inn Wallingford/Meriden

Hilton Garden Inn Wallingford/Meriden

10/10 Excellent
"Everything was practically like new. As per staff, the Hotel was recently updated & renovated,. The breakfast was good & set up as a buffet style. Breakfast was optional, but was not included. Also, guests should be informed that upon entering the dining area, once you render your breakfast voucher,…that; you will be approached by the hostess or dining room area attendant, asking guests what type of drink you would like, & they bring it to your table. Then a tip will be expected based on the percentage of your breakfast/diner meal for sitting you & serving your drink. I think it’s a smart business strategy for cost control, to prevent loss for the hotel, & for the kitchen-dining staff to be compensated for their work/service, but it should be communicated ahead of time when booking & requesting breakfast/dinner to be included. Other than this, the Hotel was exceptional & the stay was excellent. We would stay there again."

"The staff was great addressed a small issue quickly. The cabin was clean and ready for us, this was a first for me I have never been camping of any kind. What I enjoyed most was the quiet and being away from the everyday hustle, myself and my wife enjoyed the slowdown along with our dog, just being able to recharge and reconnect with each other was well worth it. We had everything we needed and the cabin was stocked with everything. We will definitely return."
