Davis’ New Hilton is a Treasure
Revised
4/2021
Dear
Polite Traveler,
So,
why would a person want to spend her birthday in a local hotel
room? When that room is in Hilton Garden Inn Davis Downtown. I love it
there!! In fact, I became acquainted with the staff of this lovely
hotel — previously under a different name— years ago when the manager, Marisa
Schaffer assisted with an article I was writing for Yahoo concerning local
businesses and holidays. Her graciousness necessitated a meeting,
which became a friendship, which eventually extended to the entire hotel
staff.
It is
my belief that the people make a hotel successful. A hotel is just a
building. With the best team members in place, it then becomes a
sanctuary—a place guests wish to stay often. And this Hilton is one
of those places.
Note: Follow CDC and county guidelines when visiting. Always wear your face mask when in public. Also, during the pandemic, some amenities may not be available. Please remember, this is only temporary.
Renovated Hotel & Room
To
become part of the Hilton family, and since it was previously under a different
name and owner, it was recently renovated—many of the rooms extensively
so. This contemporary, but warm, new look emanates class and
youth. I feel as if all stress disappears once I step into the new
lobby.
Once
in my newly remodeled room, I didn’t want to leave. It was
comfortable and fully equipped for a standard room. Large
flat-screen television, refrigerator,
microwave, luxurious bathroom...all I needed for a relaxing
stay. The view overlooking the inner courtyard was
inviting.
Celebrating Hilton Style
Since
I was celebrating my birthday,
there was a bottle of sparkling wine awaiting me with a thoughtful card
attached. While it chilled, my hubby and I wandered down to the
beautiful new bar for a free drink. Yep, free. Every
guest is gifted with one free drink per night and a discount to the hotel
restaurant, Seasons. Wow! I was in “it’s all about me”
heaven all night. As I grow older, I appreciate those moments even
more.
Final Notes
I
could have gone anywhere for my birthday, but it wouldn’t have been the
same. I feel at home at this Hilton and with these team
members. They are family. They could be yours as
well. Perhaps I won’t wait for another birthday to visit
again. Perhaps I’ll celebrate Tuesday with a short visit and a
hug. Hey, not all my visits require a room reservation, although
that is definitely on my list for next year.
Happy
Travels!
Please
