    Hat tavern downstairs has a nice little menu. This is the burger, with cheese and chili added, side Caesar salad.

    Ok, I don't pick this hotel, my company does. I need to send them a box of chocolates, because I love this hotel. It oozes everything a Holiday Inn is not- class, history, elegance, dignity. The staff is friendly. The rooms are small-ish, but still big enough, really. One advantage? a 10 minute walk to the train station, for a ride into the City, if that's your game. Check out the breakfast in the Tavern. Great.

    I stayed in the Grand Summit Hotel last night for a special event. Check-in process was efficient and easy. Service was friendly. The hotel is a beautiful, historical building. The room had two double beds. I liked the book case in the room. It made the are feel homey. Shower was small. Overall, very clean and comfortable. Rate for room was reasonable. Room includes a buffet breakfast at the Hat Tavern downstairs. We were greeted upon arriving and there was a great spread of breakfast goodies. OJ was yum and the cheese blintzes were a great surprise. The event room is spectacular. Recently renovated and teched up to the max. Jimmy the catering director knows his food and all passed hors d'oeuvres were top quality. Loved the mashed potato bar. Room decor is stunning but was really impressed with the TV screens which connect wirelessly to any device and turn to mirrors when not in use.

    I came here to stay because of a training for work. After looking at the hotel online and seeing the rooms and reviews, I was a little nervous about staying here. The staff at the desk was very friendly. The girl was very informative and friendly. 1. Coming to the room, the doors were very old and took some time to figure out how to use the key to open the door. 2. Scoping the room out, noticed there was not a microwave nor a fridge in the room. 3. After sitting on the bed, a bottle cap from probably a previous guest is STILL under the dresser in the room. This just makes me feel as if housekeeping does not properly clean the room. 4. While we are on housekeeping, they came to the room at 8 AM to tend to it. I, getting ready to head out for my training, was not ready and still getting dressed. Not understanding why housekeeping would come so early. Came back to the room around 5:30, bottle cap still under the dresser and a hair was found on top of the comforter that they just made the bed. (Hair was not mine) 5. Speaking of hair, after getting out the shower, went to the sink to brush my teeth and the wall had hair all over again. Again, not my hair. 6. Light over the table was broken. If this were not paid for by my company, I would ask for a refund. This hotel is not somewhere I would ever stay again. The only reason I am giving it a 2 is because the food at the restaurant downstairs was amazing.

    Have to put a towel down due to the light coming in

    I do love the ambiance in the lobby, & halls. It does give the hotel great character. However the rooms I feel are outdated!! You can still have old architectural character, without having old dusty books on a shelf, and a stained tub. Doors, Tubs, Crown Molding, Elevator, Bedding, Air Conditioning Units need to be updated. The bed was EXTREMELY, & I mean EXTREMELY uncomfortable!!!!!!!!!!!! The pillows were even worse!! I'm actually staying at the hotel now, & it's 6:05AM...I've been up since 2AM due to a swore back from sleeping on this bed for 3 nights. If I'm going to spend $200 a night, I expect to sleep on a cloud! Just saying!! Pros: Great Breakfast Selection!!!! (Taste wise, it was ok) I travel for business, & this is hands down the best selection of a continental breakfast ever!!! The staff is very polite, attentive, & friendly!! Cons: BED..PILLOWS...some of the bed dressing hadn't been cleaned (bed skirt, comforter). Had stains when I checked in. For a hotel regardless of all the other things going on, should NOT have lumpy pillows! It feels like I'm laying on a bag of moth balls... And the room service menu was lack there of..not only that..everything on the ROOM SERVICE menu is a $1 more than the RESTAURANT menu downstairs. Which they also already add a $1.00 to your order PLUS 19% service charge. I still tipped..but that's a bit much for food that doesn't taste any better than a local IHOP. Do I recommend staying here for a good night sleep, room service food, and/or relaxation..NO. I'd go somewhere else!

    Mold on sheet!

    I recently stayed at Hilton Short Hills and had a wonderful experience. The hotel is beautiful,…read moreelegant, and very well maintained. The lobby and common areas create a welcoming atmosphere, and the property has a luxurious feel from the moment you arrive. The hotel is conveniently located directly across from The Mall at Short Hills, making it a great choice for both shopping and relaxation. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and spacious, and the amenities throughout the hotel were excellent. I especially appreciated the indoor and outdoor pool areas and the overall attention to detail. The staff was friendly, professional, and made me feel welcome throughout my stay. Whether you're visiting for business, a weekend getaway, or a special occasion, this hotel offers a great combination of comfort, convenience, and upscale accommodations. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the Short Hills area.

    This has to be one of the nicest Hilton I've ever stayed at! The pool was very clean and welcoming…read more Very nice thick beach towels for the chairs. The indoor pool was very nice as well! I was on the executive floor, which has a lounge that served breakfast evening hors d'oeuvres and then late night dessert, as well as many beverages. The only downside I would say is that they have a niche, coffee machine that dispenses 19 different things, and it's only one, so the line to get just a black cup of coffee in the morning. Would some times take 5 to 7 minutes, considering standing in line behind people who are trying to decide if they wanted a café Americano or a hot chocolate or a frosty cool coffee. My recommendation for Hilton would be to invest in just a black coffee dispenser as well for all of us that just want our morning coffee. There was fresh fruit each morning, scrambled eggs and eggs, omelette with bacon and spinach, toast, hard-boiled eggs, yogurt, etc. The nighttime snacks were also very nice. There was salads every night along with a fresh charcuterie board, and some type of hot hors d'oeuvres. Desserts after 8:30 included pecan pie, chocolate cake, vanilla and strawberry cheesecake or fruit. I would definitely stay at this location again ! It is really a great property-and I don't give out five stars that easily. The guest services and the associates were very attentive and polite.

    REVIEW AS EVENT SPACE ONLY (SECRET TEA ROOM):…read more I attended a baby shower held at the DeBary Inn in Summit last weekend. This was my first time inside the building, which was built circa 1880, and also at a Cream Tea. It was a lovely experience! Secret Tea Room is a pop-up company that creates classic English tea party experiences. They host events at four locations - DeBary Inn and Reeves-Reed Arboretum (Summit), Morven Museum and Gardens (Princeton), and Van Vleck Gardens (Montclair). Great attention to details! Everyone loved the table settings and chinaware. The loose leaf teas were wonderful; that day, we had an apple cider, Ceylon, and green tea. Then came out the tiers. Oh, the scones! The scones are baked on premise, so they were fresh and delicious. At one point, the hosts also walked around table to table with fresh scones from the oven. It was so nice. I overheard a guest from another table joke, "Oh, you can leave the tray of 17 right here for us please. Thank you!" lol Because it's December, the DeBary Inn was decorated for the holidays with a lighted tree. Many guests took selfies in the living room/greeting area. It was a cute venue and party concept for a baby shower!

We were pleased and have no regrets after staying here for the 1st time. Our room was huge, had a fridge and a comfy bed.

It was previously known as The Grand Summit, and it's currently going through an extensive renovation. The second floor, pool and gym are currently closed. One of the elevators is out of order and has been for quite some time. The rooms are small and a bit cramped especially with two beds. The bathrooms are small too. The daily room service is spotty. One day the maid did not come by at all. Service at the front desk was fine. The lobby, bar area, restaurant, speakeasy, and lounge which has a co working area was really nice. There was a wedding and bar mitzvah last weekend and the hotel was pretty much booked. With the one elevator out of service checking out and getting the luggage downstairs took some time. The prices though are a bit high for a hotel with some of the amenities unavailable. We may be back next year and we will keep this hotel in mind for a future stay.

My room had a slightly dusty floor, based on what I saw on my socks when I took them off, but everything else was spotless, especially the bathroom, which is most important to me. My shower had great water pressure and more than enough hot water, so bonus points there! The door stuck as another Yelper noted, but I could easily shut it completely with minimal effort, so not an issue for me at all. Shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel provided in the shower stall, and facial soap bar, lotion, and mouthwash, which was more bonus points, as I've never seen this provided and I don't like to bottle my own and seal it to bring when I travel! Big screen TV with HBO is in the room, and my king bed was very comfortable, as were the pillows. There were plush bath robes for my use in the closet, but I didn't use them. They were also for sale at front desk. Free breakfast is included, which is in a very nice dining room in the lower level. Breads, cereals, fresh fruit, fruit juices, yogurt, bottled water, and hot food items are provided. I enjoyed scrambled eggs, bacon, and potato wedges on my visit. There was also a waflle iron available, and there was an attendant ensuring everything was kept up and food replenished. There is an on-site restaurabt and bar called Moe's, where colleagues and I had a beer and dinner the night before. I didn't take photos, but I enjoyed grilled shrimp with polenta cakes with a mushroom sauce. Service was good. The dining room and bar were dark with dark colors, so maybe an update with lighter colors and better lighting would add some life and a better atmosphere.
