“Great property spanning multiple buildings with pool in middle, close to universities”

When visiting the Claremont colleges, we were recommended the DT so as Hilton Diamond we booked a 3-night stay there.

When visiting the Claremont colleges, we were recommended the DT so as Hilton Diamond we booked a 3-night stay there. Hotel is 3 buildings of rooms plus a 4th for front desk and conference services and the restaurant. We stayed in Building 4 (NW of the 3 buildings) and found it quiet and peaceful and convenient to come and go with parking right outside the unit. Before arrival, Emma upgraded us to the top (3rd) floor rooms with a balcony - we got a room on the end which made it easy to take the steps to the parking lot and also made sure we only had one neighbor adjacent to us. The two bed unit we had included a small fridge and a safe along with a balcony having two chairs and a small desk. While it overlooked the parking lot, the view to the north was to a neighborhood lined with trees. The parking lot itself didn't have much traffic or noise overnight. The pool in the middle of the hotel was nice - even though it was heated the water was on the cooler side when we used it. Restaurant was great - service was excellent. Marvin served us all 3 days and he was excellent, providing the customizations requested and being prompt and cheerful each day. Food was good, too. We'll stay again for any of our Claremont visits in the future.

“A reasaonable choice when visiting Claremont”

An outdated but well maintained hotel. It is the only hotel that is within a short walk to Claremont Colleges. The whole look of the place inside is left from 1990's, but yet, unlike most outdated hotels, this one is well maintained, clean, and pleasant. My room had one of those 1990's alarm clocks… more

An outdated but well maintained hotel. It is the only hotel that is within a short walk to Claremont Colleges. The whole look of the place inside is left from 1990's, but yet, unlike most outdated hotels, this one is well maintained, clean, and pleasant. My room had one of those 1990's alarm clocks with buttons for different music genre. The hotel is formed by several buildings around a courtyard. The rooms facing the courtyard are nice; especially a morning coffee on the balcony gives more of a resort hotel feel. The on-site restaurant is overpriced, especially the breakfast buffet. I would recommend trying one of the several restaurants within a few minutes walking distance. some right next to the hotel.

“Clean, comfortable rooms, amazing staff”

This is the second time I've stayed here. Both times I found the rooms comfortable and well maintained. I never sleep well in hotels, but the beds are the right kind of firm and the blackout curtains are truly blackout, so this is about as good as it gets for me. The little patios are a nice touch.… more

This is the second time I've stayed here. Both times I found the rooms comfortable and well maintained. I never sleep well in hotels, but the beds are the right kind of firm and the blackout curtains are truly blackout, so this is about as good as it gets for me. The little patios are a nice touch. Good water pressure and water temperature, and my thermostat worked perfectly. I had a chronic illness flare up this trip and the night staff was amazing. Desiree, in particular, went out of her way to be helpful- probably the best experience with hotel staff that I have ever had. The custodial staff at this hotel are very kind and friendly, as are the shuttle drivers. Front desk staff can be a little curt during busy check-in times, which is understandable and only noticeable in comparison to how uncommonly warm most of the staff is at this hotel. The restaurant is very good, but the room service breakfast can be hit or miss. It comes in a plastic delivery container and one of the breakfasts I ordered was delivered lukewarm and was inedibly dry.
