I really loved this hotel. It had a lot of things to do inside. It has like a factory feel because that is what it used to be. The lobby is so nice and the hotel is. All of the workers were so nice. Food from the hotel was great. Are room was sooooo nice and very spacious. The only issue I had with this hotel is the golf simulator it is 40 dollars a hour and it sucks. It does not work well and I thought that was not a good use of my 40 bucks or my time. But overall I recommend this hotel to anybody that needs to stay somewhere is Rockford. Great hotel I will definitely be coming back.

This is a great hotel option. The rooms are large and have a lot of interesting features due to the renovation of this older building into a modern Hotel. The lobby, restaurant, breakfast area and convention rooms make it a nice combination once you're at the hotel. It is somewhat inconvenient that there's only outdoor surface parking with a fee.

Unique hotel in downtown Rockford. This was an old factory that has been very nicely repurposed as a Hilton property. My wife and I were here for the weekend and enjoyed our stay. The rooms are very modern industrial with a huge window wall overlooking the city and Rock river. The rooms are clean, well appointed and quiet due to the thick concrete building. The bar/restaurant downstairs was fun with cool drinks and good appetizers. We had fun chatting with the bartender about the property, the riverside improvements and the city itself. Later we went up to the rooftop bar which had a fun appetizer menu and a cool outdoor deck which we were not able to take advantage of due to the cold weather. If ever returning to Rockford we would stay here again.
