“Nº1 hotel in Fresno????!!!!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 January 2012

person found this review helpful

We had spent New Year's in Vegas, then travelled to Death Valley and just wanted to sleep there for a night before going to Yosemite National Park. Our travel agent had reccommended us another hotel, but when we looked it up in Trip Advisor this one was better and THE NUMBER ONE in that city, and as we were gonna arrive there very tired and at night, we decided to change it.

My family and I are not picky, we just wanted a place in which we could have a shower and sleep for one night. My husband had driven more than seven hours, so he was absolutely exhausted.

We parked outside and I entered to get a trolley so that we could put our luggage. 9 pm, not so late, right? (Jan, 2nd) NOONE at the front desk, NOONE helped me with the bags, I had to wait for my husband. Ten minutes later a man appeared, he looked young, latin, well dressed. We gave him the papers that indicated our reservation and he started doing his work, however, he told us he needed the code of our city because Hilton requested him to write it, we had just come from a Hilton in Vegas and we had never experienced something like that, weird... (we later realised he was asking us for that because didn't know how to spell it). It took him twenty minutes to get everything ready, another lady was there and she had to wait even more than that!

We got to our room (noone helped us take our luggage, AGAIN) and it was for smokers and it had a rollaway bed but it wasn't made. We left to have dinner and he told us he was gonna get everything done for us, apparently we didn't have to worry. An hour later we came back and nothing had changed, he only said, "Oops! Sorry, we were very busy!" (empty lobby...).

Our younger daughter (five years old) was really tired and she couldn't go to sleep because her bed wasn't ready. The guy went to our room with the bedsheets, left them there, and when my husband asked him if he was gonna make the bed, he said, "I'm tired, I should've left 20 minutes ago, sorry". OKAY, WE MADE THE BED, NO PROBLEM.

The shame is it was the best room we had seen in our stay in the West Coast, so I'd love to rate it as excellent, but the thing is that the staff was awful. We had breakfast included, but he didn't tell us, so we had to spend THIRTY DOLLARS EXTRA in Starbucks, great!

As a conclusion, if you're planning to stay in Fresno, you'd better think twice staying at Hilton if you see that guy at the frontdesk, Marriot is just crossing the street ;)

Thank you for taking the time to fill out a review on our property. We strive for excellence and and greatly appreciate your comments, unfortunately we clearly fell short deliverying the service that you normally are accustomed to when staying at a Hilton family hotel. We have taken these comments and used them to retrain the appropriate team members. We hope when you return to Fresno you will give us another opportunity. Again, thank you for your constructive feedback and hope to see you again.

“Food service”

I really love Sylvia who works at the dinning area. she is friendly and takes care of our needs. but the food went down hill since new managers came in. We stay there every month for 4 to 5 days at a time and notice the food needs improvement, especially the breakfast!! My husband and I are considering leaving to another Hotel, the only thing that stops us is Sylvia, she is our friend now!!

“Best in Fresno”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 December 2011

people found this review helpful

I have stayed at a number of hotels in Fresno and this is definitely the best I have experienced. I will be back there soon. The evening reception was outstanding with cold beer and wine, along with raviolis my first night there, followed by carnitas the next night. As many folks have mentioned, Sylvia is a definite plus. She provides better service than most restaurants (my beer glass never emptied). Although breakfast was not on the same level as the happy hour, it was good, as well. The property is neat and well-kept. The rooms are very comfortable and I would have no issue with staying here for an extended time. Having worked in law enforcement in Fresno previously, I'm aware of the high crime rate around much of the city. This area, however, is somewhat isolated from many of the problems as it's not real easy to get to, yet it's conveniently located near Hwy 41.

“Service makes all the difference”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 December 2011

people found this review helpful

i expected service to be a little slow, maybe even surly, when staying here over Christmas. After all, who really likes to work at Christmas? However, I was pleased to find that all the staff I encountered during my stay were unfailingly pleasant and helpful. This was true of the front desk, the housekeeping and grounds staff, and especially true of those providing the morning breakfast and afternoon light meal and beverage. Talk about friendly! Sylvia was truly a gem!! Staying in a hotel at Christmas could have been a depressing experience but having such pleasant encounters with the staff made all the difference.

Room Tip: If staying during the summer, avoid rooms 144 and 142--they are right next to the pool.

“Wonderful experience”

The hotel is very nice located, very nice decorated. The rooms are huge, the kitchen was very practical.
The food is great thanks to Sylvia that made our dinners so special. The breakfasts were also yummy. Has a waffle station, eggs, etc. Very nice.
The only tiny problem was the internet speed, really slow. Overall was an awesome experience!
No seconds thoughts: back in Fresno? Back to Homewood.
