Had a very warm welcome on our arrival and discontinued throughout our stay. Our room was extremely clean and very well stopped. Possibly the best bed that we have slept in on our stay on our various days in Australia. And a pillow menu is always greatly appreciated. We have stayed in lesser Hotels better Hotels that do not offer this.

"Fabulous location, we were upgraded to the waterview room. Had lunch at nearby Dundees- tried crocodile and kangaroo. The Moroccan mackerel was great. The breakfast at the Hilton was excellent- fresh squeezed fruit juice- diy was very refreshing."
