Hilton review

Our verdict

Hilton covers hotels and packages and has run since 1919, so it suits travellers who want one chain to handle the stay and the extras. MoMo and WayAway both list transport alongside hotels, so a mixed transport basket is easier there than at Hilton.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • A mobile app is available for booking and managing a stay, so confirmations and changes sit on a phone.
  • Operating since 1919, which gives the brand a long record of running hotels.
  • Bookings cover hotels and packages, letting one chain handle the room and the trip extras together.
  • Support reaches phone and help centre for questions before and during a stay.

Cons

  • Bookings cover hotels and packages only, so flights, rail, buses and transfers sit outside the basket.
  • Support runs on phone and help centre, so live chat and email are not among the listed channels.
  • Everything books through Hilton Worldwide, one US parent company, so there is a single chain to compare rather than many sellers.

Who it suits

  • Travellers who want the stay and the extras arranged through one chain instead of several sites.
  • Families and groups coordinating several rooms, with the mobile app holding each confirmation.
  • Anyone who books the same hotel brand repeatedly and prefers familiar terms to rate shopping.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Not for trips built around trains, where 12Go adds rail passes, ferries and transfers to its list.
  • Not for a mixed basket: MoMo covers flights, rail, buses, car rental, hotels and tours in one place.
  • Not for cruise or transfer bookings, which sit in the WayAway product list rather than Hilton's.

How Hilton compares

Frequently asked questions

What can I actually book through Hilton?+

The booking side covers hotels and packages, so hotels and packages sit in the same place. Transport such as flights, rail or transfers is not part of that list, so a trip organised around a specific train or flight needs a different site.

Does Hilton have a mobile app?+

Yes, a mobile app is available for booking and managing a stay. It keeps the room, the confirmation and later changes in one place, which helps a family coordinating rooms across hotels and packages.

How do I reach Hilton if a booking goes wrong?+

Support runs on phone and help centre, so a phone line and a help centre cover most questions. Live chat and email do not appear in that channel list, so a quick written message may not get a reply.

How long has Hilton been in the travel business?+

The company dates back to 1919 and trades as Hilton Worldwide. A business of that age has names and properties that returning travellers recognise, which can matter when a family books the same chain year after year.

Where is Hilton based?+

The legal entity behind the brand is Hilton Worldwide, with headquarters in the United States. The chain named on a booking therefore sits with one parent company rather than a separate national operator for each market.

Should I pick Hilton or 12Go for a trip with trains in it?+

For a hotel trip, hotels and packages is a short list that stands on its own. Add trains or ferries and the balance shifts: 12Go lists flights, rail and bus, so rail, ferries, transfers and tours are handled in the same booking flow.

Is Hilton a good fit for a family booking a package?+

Packages sit inside hotels and packages, so a family can bundle the stay instead of booking it room by room. Support on phone and help centre handles changes, and the mobile app keeps each traveller's confirmation and later amendment to hand.
