It is seldom I take the postion to agree with a comment here on Trip Advisor...but I agree, our pillows and beds are AWESOME. with our oversized rooms, 32" flat screens, in-room amenities, room service, and all the other great stuff about our Extrodinary Experience we strive to deliver...it's hard to get out of bed in the morning.

This has always been one of our favorite hotels to stay in. Disappointed others have a few low ratings because this hotel does not deserve those low ratings. The pool was heated as advertised, front desk staff very helpful, rooms very clean and comfortable, breakfast buffet was great, Buddy the Clydesdale was fun, etc. etc.

First of all...speaking for our hotel Clydesdale BUDDY...thank you for the kind words. We appreciate your comments regarding any "undeserved" reviews...but if it were not for those who were kind enough to take the time to give us their opinion, we would not know when we have failed to be our best in their eyes.

Meets all standards of acceptance, features a restaurant, lounge and buffet breakfast (not top of the line), balcony rooms are available and there is security on patrol at night. Staff is adaquate, service is prompt, rates are what you would expect for a night at the Hilton.

We recently used the convention services to host our high school reunion - the tent was beautiful and the food was delicious - the reunion was a hoot! We look forward to coming back in 5 years for another!

we certainly look forward to another "hoot" of a reunion party in 5 years. Our new Palm Terrace and the Pavilion is the perfect new Ocala venue for any kind of event...with 15,000 square feet of meeting space and the 6,000 sf Pavilion...it's does allow for you to hoot-it-up or calm it down for any function.

Hilton Ocala has all the accommodations for a comfortable stay. Though located fairly close to the I-75, I didn't really notice this. In my room, sitting at the pool, having a drink outside (and inside) - no disturbance. And it allows for quick access to any direction you want to head to in Florida. The hotel also has a large...

I would say you touched on everything that makes Hilton OCala great. We often refer to our wonderful oasis in the middle of Ocala a "resort feel" because you have almost everything you could desire at your finger tips...including everything from world-class dinging, live music every Friday poolside to a quiet leisure stroll around our 6-acre back yard. We hope... More

A simpe "thanks" would be more than enough for the response to your experience at Hilton OCala. That is why so many people come back time and time again. As far as early check-in....if the room is ready, and you are calling our place home for a night or several...then our welcome mat is rolled out when you arrive....and yes,... More

It's awesome when we make little changes such as using new, national name brand bathroom amenities like lotions, shampoos, etc...and people notice. The Hilton Ocala strives to improve every day - and there have been quite a few changes lately.

The Ocala Hilton offers comfortable rooms, a full service bar, spacious meeting facilities and a full service restaurant. Convenient to I-75 at State Road 200, it is located on one of Ocala's commercial hubs with food and retail stores close at hand. A spacious swimming pool and hot tub area are also provided on the grounds.
