I have nothing negative to say about The Hilton Garden Inn Daytona Beach .On a recent trip to Daytona Beach to move our daughter into Embry Riddle we reserved a room at The Hilton Garden Inn. We were greeted by a very friendly and more than accommodating staff member at check-in and after traveling 17 hours by car to get there this was very comforting! Speaking of comfort, we were upgraded to a beautiful junior suite with the most amazingly comfortable bed we ever slept in! The room was very spacious and immaculate! All of our questions and requests were addressed with a smile and the utmost professionalism! On top of all that we got a discount for being members of the Embry Riddle family....great perk! We will definitely stay at this hotel the next time we are in town and highly recommend the Hilton Garden Inn to anyone traveling to Daytona Beach.

I walked into this hotel in the afternoon to book a room for the night. I was traveling from Orlando and did not want to drive back that evening but instead rather spend the night out. I went up to inquire about a room night and the front desk associate Cadalia was very short with me. When I inquired about a specific rate she stated "No" to inform me that it was not available. I asked if I could speak with a manager and again she informed me "Nope" with a nasty attitude. I understand things won't always be available and that the answer cannot always be Yes but the tone and body language of this associate screamed that she was not willing to work with my needs as a guest. I work in hospitality and am a manager at a hotel. I would never allow my associates to speak to guests this way. Instead of speaking with her to look into other rates I determined that I would never stay at this property and instead decided to find alternate accommodations where I would not be treated so rudely at the first moment. I often recommend hotels to guests traveling to Daytona from Orlando and I will be sure to insist that my guests do not stay here simply because the attitude of the front desk staff generally speaks for the level of management they have running the hotel and how the property will operate as a whole. I hope they are able to change this attitude quick or they will be in for a rude awakening when more and more people walk away based on her body language and tone.

I was put in this Hilton Garden Inn by a company. I don't usually stay with this chain because the price of breakfast is ridiculous. However, the staff was very friendly and helpful, the room was comfortable and clean(yay for all Hilton family beds!), and it was convenient to everything in Daytona Beach but the actual beach. It felt very new. I would highly recommend this hotel for those that want to be near the airport/racetrack/Embry Riddle.

We were on our way back from Orlando- Disney to be specific- and decided to stop in Daytona Beach to let our 4 year old see the ocean. Well after getting there of course he wanted to get in the water and sand sand eerywhere. To make a long story short- we decided to spend the night in Daytona and this hotel was aailable. The serive was awesome. I was greeted with such pleasure and given bottles of cold water and fresh baked cookies. The entrance was so beautiful-it was like welcome home- especially because were so dirty from being at the beach. We stepped into an immaculate room- big open space especially with an ACTIVE 4 year old. It was so nice- we relaxed the remainder of the evening -We could have spent the entire day in that bed, what a great night sleep- we wanted to take the bed home with us! We woke up to an exceptional breakfast buffet- grits, eggs, bacon, sausage, made to order omelets and belgian waffles, and other great varieties of foods. The cook was great-I can't recall his name but my husband gave him a tip- he said that was the best omelet he had in a very long time.The chef worked on Sunday, July 24, 2011 for breakfast. I say this because one of the other guests said that the chef on the previous morning did not know how to cook.It was definitely a great ending to our family vacation!!! We will be back!!!!!
