We were staying in the hotel and decided to pop down for breakfast. I had no idea it was going to cost me $57 per person. This included an automatic 15% gratuity on the bill.

The food was your run-of-the-mill hotel breakfast buffet but at ridiculous prices. Seriously, I was astonished by this. Do not eat here unless it’s included with your room. You’re much better off finding a breakfast cafe nearby. I guarantee it’ll taste better and cost a third of what they charged here.

Only worth it if your company is paying for it. Pretty expensive outside of that

Breakfast buffet included in room rate is ok. Probably expensive if purchased on its own.

Overpriced and food was awful. We paid $100 for a breakfast buffet of hard croissants, warm milk, watery oatmeal, two mini muffin options, and limit variety of bagels. On top of that we were charged a service fee. For what? Never again.

Agree with the other reviews. $115 for 2 mediocre breakfasts

Save your money , how this place can stay functional is beyond my comprehension. A buffet with a very poor selection of options and eggs that are watery as their main meal that I couldn’t eat. The sausage links were cold and grayish and nothing can be prepared, just the buffet.. then the bill came! 135.00 for two people..

I should have read the review before I go...
As a diamond member, you receive $70 credit, but the breakfast, which was literally horrible, costs you $115 for two. So basically, you don't get free breakfast although you use all your credit as a diamond member.

Wouldn’t waste a dime here. Majority of the food was inedible. Cold sausage with a gelatinous film. Watery powdered eggs. The pineapple was salty for some reason? The table we were seated at was mostly clean except they left the last people’s orange juice and milk there. Our server was very nice and helpful; the other staff not so much. After all the inedible food, I decided a piece of toast would be a safe bet. While I was waiting for my bread to toast a staff member came up and started cleaning the counter with her hands. More worried about presentation than actually keeping things sanitary. I stepped over so I wouldn’t be in her way and she kept getting closer and then said “can you move?” Said the same thing to the next person who was just trying to get a bagel. Wasn’t naïve enough to expect a decent meal, but this was actually a joke.

Atrociously overpriced for a casual buffet breakfast!! I WISH we looked at the Google reviews before going here for breakfast!! Hilton, do better!!

Predatory restaurant that fails to warn you of their outrageously high price for a buffet breakfast (over $50 per person) that is only average in its offerings and qualities. That the Hilton chain allows or encourages such sharp business practices makes me question whether to ever use a Hilton again.

unless you look at the sign outside, this is a normal, mediocre free hotel breakfast buffet. then they hit you with a $57 bill after having a plate of bland powdered eggs and sausage. avoid this place at all costs.

57 dollars for what should be free breakfast and they don't tell you or it doesn't say anywhere before what the cost is.

Chris

1.5 rating literally this could be a record. So I just had to see it for myself. I did not eat anything, but the greasy grey sausages, the unkept buffet area, communicates a sense of despair and hopelessness. If you would actually choose this, sorry you kind of deserve the $50 cost as a penalty.

The buffet costs $57 per person!!! (Including taxes and tips). Unfortunately, you don't get anything close to the right value for the price. There is only filter coffee; a cappuccino, for example, could not be ordered. The situation was similar with omelettes and fried eggs; these simple things were also not on the buffet and could not be ordered.
Save yourself the money and go to a diner or café in town.

Wish I could give them 0 stars, DONT COME HERE!!! Not worth $60 for a buffet that serves basic hotel breakfast.
