The hotel

Set against views of Mount Diablo, Hilton Concord’s thought of everything you need for a stay in East Bay. First there’s the location: it’s right between Waterworld California and the Willows and Sun Valley shopping centres, each a stroll away; and its complimentary shuttle runs to the Concord BART station for easier trips into San Francisco. Then there are the hotel’s own attractions, from the fitness centre, outdoor pool and whirlpool, to its various watering holes, ideal whether you just want to grab a Starbucks coffee on your way out, or linger over a glass of Napa or Sonoma wine on your way back in. And finally it adds the pleasingly named ‘Plate & Vine’, serving locally sourced north Californian favourites against an on-trend backdrop of brick walls and rustic detailing.

I chose this hotel, because while pricier, I expected that the Hilton brand would deliver superior service. It did not. I was disappointed that the check in experience was stressful, and the shower in my room took more than 5 minutes to heat up, and the staff was patronizing in responding to both of those 2 issues.

Nice place to stay in the East Bay. Nice property with good places to eat and walk around at night. Very well kept hotel and very reliable for good service and check in. New Veranda shopping center across the street has plenty of places to shop and eat.

My staycations include eating, shopping and relaxing and with Sun Valley up the street and Veranda directly across the street I can cross all those things off my list. Never had a room at the CH I didn't like and the staff is super friendly and personable (they spoke my language:slang/jive) from check in to check out the staff will make you feel welcomed and important.

I traveled to the area to attend my granddaughters baby sprinkle party. While they have a home in Martinez, there is not enough room and I require an accessible room due to my physical impairments. I was very satisfied with the hotel accommodations.

The whole experience of staying here was a huge let-down. The room was a sauna when I arrived because the ac was off. It took 20 hours for the room to cool to a reasonable temperature. The room service was a disaster with half the menu items unavailable. This was after attempting to call room service 5 times!!! I could go on and on, but the list is too long. There was no complimentary coffee in the lobby, the checking in and setting everything up through Hilton Honors app was inoperable. The location of the hotel is confusing and difficult to access. I will not ever stay again. Read less
