Top Lake Forest Hotel Reviews

Hilton Anaheim

Hilton Anaheim

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel was really nice and the employees were very courteous and helpful. The only thing we did not like was the 20% automatic tip in the restaurant and bar area. I’m not opposed to tipping 20%, it’s just that I want to be the one to make that decision. Because of that, we did not tip any additional amount…which we may have done otherwise. Lunch at Disney, surprisingly, wasn’t as expensive as lunch at the hotel."
