Wonderful experience for my family
Extremely respectful staff and available any moment. Beautiful location and lobby. Was the best decision we made to stay there when visiting Universal studios. The pool and hot-tub were wonderful and my kids enjoyed their stay so much that they protested to checkout! Would certainly get back here again.

Terrible hotel and service.
We drove 10 hours to get here to the hotel just to find out that the room was not ready. I was told I would be updated not once did I receive an email or a text message, the whole day pass thing open to the public is a disaster The pool area should only be open to guests took two hours to get our extremely overpriced disgrace of food that we ordered, the room had a terrible stench of body odor and cigarette smoke. The toilet was half ass cleaned pubic hair in the bathtub sheets were dirty. Everyone in the entire hotel either hates their job or is terribly paid not one happy face around if you hate your job find something else to do. I definitely should’ve booked the Sheraton. I would never recommend this hotel to any of my friends or family or ever stay here again.

Hilton Stay
Staff service (valet, bellman, front desk, Atrium Lounge, and Cafe Sierra) was excellent and they were always asking if I needed anything.
If you don’t like soft pillows, you’ll be asking for some extras. They may look fluffy and stiff but they flatten out pretty quick when lying on them.
Only issue was the room where the water leaked onto the floor from the shower from both sideS of the door. Had extra towels so it took care of that.

Housekeepers are amazing. There needs to be a more direct pathway to universal studios. The shuttle is nice but often runs late, so having a more direct path would be helpful. $50/night SELF parking fee is outrageous when the hotel is already so expensive.

We had a great stay! The location was perfect—being so close to Universal and CityWalk made it super easy to get there right when we wanted without any hassle. The room was comfortable and clean, and we really appreciated the great customer service throughout our visit. Definitely made our trip more enjoyable!

Overall great! 2 minor complaints - vending machines for food options on the property were limited to bubble tea. Also, we went for coffee at 1035am at the “Starbucks” in the lobby and it had just closed. Not sure why a coffee shop in a hotel venue would need to close at 10:30….crazy. Other than that, wonderful stay.

Seen Better Days
Such a disappointing stay at a Hilton. We had two rooms, king corner rooms with pull out beds. 757 & 758. 758 smelled like mildew, and the whole room was slightly damp. The air conditioner barely worked, and the room was situated over the parking lot. It was so loud, and we had a terrible night of sleep. The downstairs bar smelled terrible, like old fish.

Great hotel
If you are visiting Universal Studios, this is the perfect spot to enjoy it. Room was spacious, clean and functional, and we were lucky to have great views. Hotel was also convenient to Hollywood, just a short drive away.
