First check the distance from your points of interest and be certain that it works for you. It's quite far from London center, and would require 1 hour of travel to get there.If location is convenient, then the hotel is great.Everything feels pretty new or they are really well maintained. Great beds and amenities.Normally I can get it at a reasonable price.I'm mostly staying at Hilton hotels and this one most likely is the best I've stayed so far in London. And has one of the greatest breakfast buffets that I've tried.It has spa facilities as well, which seem pretty reasonably priced. I'm not a fan so never used them, but it might be another bonus for someone.Every member of the staff are super friendly and helpful.Just 5*. Keep it up!*Always try the freshly cooked omelette at breakfast.

The atmosphere was relaxing, and the location was ideal for exploring the area.Overall, my experience at the Hilton was exceptional, and I look forward to returning in the future.

I recently had the pleasure of returning to the newly and impressively refurbished Hilton London Croydon, and I must say, it exceeded all expectations. Without a doubt, this hotel stands as one of the most beautifully renovated Hilton properties in the UK. It’s hard to believe that such a luxurious and well-appointed gem exists in Croydon, but once you step inside, you'll immediately be captivated by its elegance and modern charm.From the moment I arrived, the level of service was nothing short of exceptional. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was perfect, with a special shout-out to Anita at the front desk. Her warm and professional demeanor made me feel like a truly valued guest, and she handled everything with such grace and efficiency. As a Hilton Honors Diamond member, it’s always wonderful to be recognised, and Anita ensured that my loyalty was acknowledged and appreciated.The breakfast experience was another highlight of my stay, earning a solid 10/10. The hotel has clearly taken guest feedback to heart, and I was particularly impressed by the addition of a pork-free alternative to the traditional sausages. The beef and tomato sausages were a delightful surprise and showcased the hotel’s commitment to catering to diverse tastes and dietary preferences.Overall, my stay at the Hilton London Croydon was nothing short of delightful. The combination of the stunning refurbishment, outstanding service, and thoughtful touches made this visit memorable. Thank you to the entire team at the Hilton London Croydon for consistently delivering such a lovely experience. I look forward to returning soon!

Hotel is good. Staff excellent. All the staff were great, but in particular a member of the bar team (Shannon) was outstanding. Friendly, professional and efficient. Exactly what you want in a hotel. She is a credit to the hotel and the wider team. Thank you.

Disappointing Experience at Hilton London CroydonMy partner and I stayed at the Hilton London Croydon for one night to attend a friend’s birthday party, expecting a high standard of service due to the Hilton brand and its 4-star rating. Unfortunately, our experience was far from satisfactory.Upon arrival, we were shocked to learn that parking costs £17, which we found to be exorbitant. We opted to park on the street outside the hotel, where there were no yellow lines.We were initially impressed with room 330, but soon discovered it was a family room with an adjoining door to the next room. We could hear everything from the adjacent room, which was highly inappropriate for two adult strangers. After complaining, we were given a new room key and a bottle of wine as a goodwill gesture, but no assistance was offered to help us move our belongings.The new room, 353, had a musty smell and the heating did not work. Additionally, when we returned from the party at 3am, we found the spinning doors off and no other doors open. Despite ringing the bell multiple times, no one opened the door for six minutes until a cleaner angrily informed us to press the disabled button. This lack of communication and signage was appalling.The next morning, the breakfast was cold, and there was no butter available, only margarine. Overall, the service and conditions were far below the standard expected from a Hilton hotel. I would not recommend staying here.

Shannon was great very accommodating and quick with our order. Super friendly, even though it was busy and she was on her own she made us feel very welcome and didn’t leave us waiting. Will definitely be coming back here as it is a local place for us to come after work drinks.

Disappointing customer service. Not even worth a Single Star. We booked a table at their Lounge restaurant in Hilton Croydon for my birthday dinner a week in advance. We called to place the booking and, just to be safe, made an online reservation as well, receiving a confirmation. After an entire week, they contacted us on the day of the reservation asking us not to come. Their staff is unprofessional and doesn’t know how to speak to customers. It was Steff (Stephanie) who spoke to my husband and said, “I don’t want you and your wife to come in and get rejected. Hope you get a reservation somewhere else.” Really? Is that how Hilton treats its customers, especially when we have a confirmed reservation? Even a high street restaurant would do a better job treating customers than this so-called Hilton. We are never going to this place again, but thankfully, we found a better place at the last minute. Hilton, you should learn from Marriott about providing excellent customer service.
