The Hilton City Hotel is housed in an imposing 12-storey modern building. It looks a little like an office block from the outside, but this belies its stylish interior. Bright and airy, with marble floors, the lobby offers a welcoming atmosphere upon arrival. The 170 guestrooms are appointed in a contemporary yet comfortable style. They feature wireless Internet, double aspect windows, work desk, 32-inch TV and on-demand movies. Some rooms have a city view and all are clean and well maintained. The hotel’s “City 3” restaurant has wooden brasserie-style tables and seating, and a relaxed ambience. Locals and guests alike enjoy modern dishes such as salad of red wine poached pear, with Yorkshire blue cheese and pan-fried free range duck breast. Alternatively, you can enjoy light bites and delicious burgers in the City 3 bar, which has low tables and comfy seating in an airy open-plan space, or grab a coffee with the morning papers in Caffè Cino.
