The main selling point of this modern chain hotel is its tranquil setting overlooking the leafy banks of the Grand Canal, offering a view so bucolic you could forget you're right in the middle of the city. The bedrooms are decorated, as you might expect, in contemporary style (though you might not expect the fabrics to be quite so reliant on strange, checkerboard patterns), and they get lots of light.
In honour of its core clientele, the Hilton has the full complement of business facilities: internet access, fax machines, impressive-looking phones, a boring bar. The restaurant overlooks the canal, which makes up a bit for its somewhat chain-hotel look.
