If you're interested in throwing a room party, or just need more space, we suggest that you reserve two adjoining rooms. Unfortunately, no suites are available in the hotel, but there are many adjoining room pairs available.
Additionally, we are recommending that room parties be located in the block above the lobby on the second and third floors. Rooms 271 - 284 and 371 - 384 are suggested. Note that these rooms connect, so reserve two or more rooms if you want to really spread out. Beds can be removed for $25 if you want to open up floor space. All rooms have balconies and sliding doors to allow more airflow if you get a crowd. Note that the second floor is smoking, and the third floor is non-smoking.
Smoking rooms are available, and are very
limited in number. If you would like a smoking room, we strongly
suggest that you make your reservations early.
We regret to inform everyone that the Troy Hilton does not allow pets.
The Troy Hilton is located on the east side of Crooks Road just off the I-75 Crooks Road exit.
