The Runway at the Hilton Garden Inn in Hillingdon

The service at this place is truly the worst I have ever experienced. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that things were going to be less than ideal. There were only two servers for the entire section, which seemed completely overwhelmed with customers. As a result, we had to endure an agonizing wait of about 30 minutes just to place our order for each round of drinks. This level of inefficiency was astonishingly frustrating. Additionally, it wasn't just the long wait times that made the experience unpleasant. The servers seemed to completely overlook our table, as we were constantly surrounded by empty glasses that were never cleared away. It gave the impression of disorganization and neglect, adding to the already disappointing experience. This poor service overshadowed any potential enjoyment we might have had from our visit, leaving us dissatisfied and unlikely to return.

The best thing you can say about this place is that there is a nice view. The positives stop there. Prices are high, service is erratic and the background music is awful, irritating and difficult to bear. We had a quick drink and left.

The view from the rooftop is spectacular. The service is quick and efficient. The time passing rather quickly when you are at the rooftop as the activity at the airport keeps you occupied. The mezze platter was sufficient for the two of us and it was delicious.

It is a lovely experience. Calming low volume music, beautiful scenery even at night. Not enough seating but if you are lucky enough to get a table the service is immaculate. Just factor in the service charge. We shared a lovely bottle of Argentina’s Malbec but you not getting much change from £40

Although primary a bar , there are nice snacks served as well. The best thing though is been on the 14th floor over looking Heathrow's runway. You can sit inside and just enjoy the view. Or for the full plane spotters experience venture outside and enjoy the sun terrace. A must if you are staying at the hotel.
