Whenever we visit our son and his family in Burnt Hills, NY, we stay here at the Hilton Garden Inn in Clifton Park. We normally use Hilton points to stay here as it's the most reasonably priced points hotel in the area and with Hilton Honors, if you pay for four nights with points, the fifth night is free which is a great benefit. Staff are super nice, rooms are clean and decent, lobby is very inviting and breakfast is good. The only issue with the breakfast I have is that if you don't want the buffet, (carbs, more carbs, yogurt, fruit) but want just eggs and sausage, you still have to pay for the buffet, even if you are not using any of it! Breakfast staff are very nice, but for sure there is one chef that is better than the other as we had five breakfasts here, and when the good chef was there, the eggs and potatoes were perfectly cooked, but when the "other" chef is cooking, the eggs and potatoes come out burnt. I did mention this to the breakfast manager and on our last morning she very kindly comped our breakfast. |On the plus side, they have a nice indoor heated pool and spa, again something the other hotels in the Clifton Park area do not have, some have pools but having a jacuzzi here is a very nice bonus. The management also allow me to bring my grandkids over to use the pool which I really appreciate. We will continue to come here 1-2 times a year as they take good care of us and the hotel is well positioned, with the mall and many restaurants and the movie theatre nearby.
