Very nice pool and friendly staff

Overall we had a really good stay at the hilton. The pool was a huge hit with our 8 year old who never wanted to get out. The hotel beach is ok but nearby Pebbles Beach (5 min walk) is stunning and we loved going there.

Overall we had a really good stay at the hilton. The pool was a huge hit with our 8 year old who never wanted to get out. The hotel beach is ok but nearby Pebbles Beach (5 min walk) is stunning and we loved going there.
We found breakfast at Sage Cafe (short walk away) better than the hotel. The pool bar food wasn't great either. A short taxi ride takes you to lots of better restaurants.
The rooms are good size and the staff were always friendly and helpful especially Fred. Room cleaning was good.
There's no kids club but a playground and fire show and other things that make it fun for kids including the great pool.
We completely loved Barbados and found the Hilton a good base to explore from. Would recommend.

Nice hotel, terrible guests!!

We stayed in the Hilton for the last two nights of our Caribbean holiday.
The hotel is nice, good facilities and pools, it is clean and no real complaints with anything. You cannot really swim in the sea outside the hotel itself but for a few days the pools were great. The desk staff were helpful and very friendly.
On our last night (we were on the 5th floor) room 571 I believe, caused so much disruption it was unbelievable and nothing was done about it for over 6 hours on and off.
They were an American family with two daughters, teenagers or early twenties, they were continually fighting and arguing both in the room and corridors.
The lack of consideration for anyone else was staggering and yet despite multiple complaints from myself and other guests it was allowed to continue until past 11pm. I have stayed in many holidays around the world but never experienced anything like this.
I was there with my young son who was woken by the noise and whilst I appreciate hotels cannot choose their customers they have a duty of care to all guests which was very much lacking.
The Hilton offered we could change rooms at 11pm whereas they should have addressed the issue.

This wont be a long review because lets face it...Its the HILTON. The hotel itself was clean and the rooms were decent. Its not totally outdated but it can use some updating. The hotel itself is massive. I had a room with a ocean view with a balcony. The beach is clean but the waters are dark...meaning its not as crystal clear and its filled with rock and an occasional cannon from the 1700's emerged in the sand. The pools are huge and clean and the grounds are well maintained. The cleaning staff and staff members are helpful. On site gym was great, lobby cafe was good. Biggest complaint is the pricing at the hotel. The restaurant (Lighthouse) ended with a $200 bill (USD) for 1 glass of white house wine, an appetizer and 2 entrees. Food was a 4 out of 10. The beach bar is also expensive for less than satisfactory drinks.
The location was great and I appreciated the fact that parking was free. I took the liberty of renting a car because that is the absolute best way to see the island. There are a few restaurants within a walking distance from the hotel but I gotta admit the food was not the highlight of this visit. To sum it all up the hotel is decent. I gave it a 3 because its pretty average. Not bad..Not the best but I would stay here again if I visited the island. Location was good and safe.
