Reviews and Ratings
The Hilton is a spacious haven with a large open kitchen, dining, and living room area boasting a beautiful balcony overlooking the pavilion and square behind City Club, creating a picturesque backdrop for memorable moments. The fit, finish, location, and value provided by this room surpassed our expectations compared to similar accommodations. The service was notably personable and accommodating, although occasional noise disturbances affected our peace. The location in the Carriage House at West Lafayette, amidst the exclusive 'River Ridge' community, offered a fantastic central spot and a retreat after the vibrant International Festival. While the dining experience was pleasant with beautiful scenery, the feel of a 'concierge club' in the dining building enhanced the upscale atmosphere.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The one-bedroom suite I had was beautifully furnished and spotless, offering a huge bedroom and a separate living room. The service was top-notch, with the hotel manager Ben Roberts being very attentive and friendly. The location was also amazing, right in the heart of the exclusive part of town behind City Club, with a wonderful backdrop for pictures. The dining experience was good, located in one of the adjacent buildings with a feel of a concierge club found in nicer chain hotels. The facilities were great, making my stay stress-free and enjoyable.
