What can I say about our stay at The Trafalgar Hilton, apart from we had an absolutely amazing romantic weekend there. The hotel offers a fabulous location and convenience to all of Londons attractions. The staff were extremely polite and helpful anytime we asked for assistance with directions, calling taxis and contacting restuarants. We found the whole Trafalgar setup very... more

On holiday with my family we stayed 3 nights at the Trafalgar Hilton. The Hotel would be better served if it changed its name to a "W" hotel. It is a minimalist boutique hotel with sparse if any decor in the rooms with little semblance to a Hilton hotel; cold and sterile is the best description. I had reserved 2... more

We booked 4 rooms at the Trafalgar Hilton for a one night stay prior to a cruise. It was a little difficult to find , then we realized after circling the block that it was on the corner with just a discreet sign saying The Trafalgar, no big Hilton sign. You walk into the lobby & there is a bar... more

We had a good stay at this trendy hotel. It's not a standard Hilton and just therefore it was different and sensational. We had a standard Plus room, wich was very spacious and had a calm view and location to a nearby office building. The room was well equipped with both DVD, CD-player, flatscreen, coffee/tea making facilities, bathroom and slippers,... more

Moved here after spending first couple of days at the awful Sheraton Park Lane. Talk about going from the outhouse to the Penthouse. Whereas the Park Lane punished you for booking on priceline by giving you a dreadful, shabby room, the Trafalgar gave me a beautiful and enormous room-the largest I've ever had in London. You have to be okay... more

When you enter the hotel lobby you will get confused. At least I was. Is this really the hotel? It more looks like a bar. Especially if you arrive in the evening the sound level is really high and there is no visible reception desk. Anyway there is a reception and the staff is very friendly. The hotelroom is more... more

My husband is a Hilton honours member and picked this hotel to stay in for a family trip to London. As other people have commented the hotel has poor signage and if not for the taxi driver would have been hard to find. The rooms are very minimalistic and plain, it looked like someone had forgotten to put any art... more

Our stay at the Trafalgar Hilton was wonderful. We spent 3 nights here and it was a perfect location for a short stay with the art museums and great shopping and dining just steps away, as well as Covent Garden, theatres, great night life. Our room overlooked the Canadian Embassy and the street view was a source of entertainment as... more

We stayed here for two nights after a European cruise. This hotel is centrally located and is accesible to all public means of transportation. We had to make sure it was actually a Hilton Hotel before we let the taxi go since you will not see any Hilton name outside. The set up of the lobby and the front desk... more

I stayed at the hotel for 2 nights after a business trip. I arrived Friday night about 9:30 PM after a delayed flight and a very long week. I was exhausted. At first I thought the cab had dropped me the wrong place as it looked like a bar and the music was so loud I could not hear people... more
