Whenever you can say you had "fun" when traveling, it's a good thing! We are so glad we were able to be part of that fun experience. I am hoping you had time to enjoy the resort like atmosphere of the Hilton Ocala and the relaxing, enormous outdoor pool deck and oak-lined grass paddock. If you were here on a... More

Pleasant stay, near town and the horse farms. Suggested "Chase a Dream" horse farm and we had a great experience on the farm. Breakfast was well prepared and great variety. Room was quiet and clean. Music was little loud pool side and in the breakfast area. Staff was very helpful.

We are so happy that your experience in the Heart of Horse Country was great. Ocala certainly is a pleasent surprise to many people, and the Hilton Ocala makes it easy to get away from the fast pace of the city, while being just minutes from downtown Ocala as well as the area horse farms. We hope you took the... More

At the intersection, you see other hotels & gas stations and have no idea that such a peaceful Hilton is just around the corner. It is a full-service Hilton Hotel, and we found at Christmastime that their rates were better than the moderate motels nearby. Perhaps we were just there when there weren't any business meetings at the hotel. It... More

We have shared your comments with our team and hope to have you as our guest again in the near future or whenever traveling in North Central FL. With our wonderful 6-acre oak lined back yard paddock, 15,000 sq.ft. pool deck and all our other amenities it's only natural that many people get that "resort" feel when they are here.... More

The first thing you see when you approach the desk, is big signs alerting you about debit/card policy, very unfriendly!!! They will hold your account for the room amount plus gratuities and it will not be taken off 7 to 10 business days after check out. Seems to me they are wanting to use the guests money during that time.... More

Thank you for your comments and giving us the opportunity to clarify for you and other who may not be aware of the process involved when using a debit card verses a credit card. We post the debit card notice at the front desk as a convenience for our guests and most are very happy that we let them know... More

The Hilton in The Horse Captial of the World. Great Place to stay. Right off I-75 Exit 350. In the back off the main road. Nice and quiet. Have a drink at the bar and relax or go out by the pool. Clean rooms and friendly staff. The nicest place to stay in Ocala. Check it out.

Your concise notes say it all.....Ocala is well known for it's contribution to the thoroughbred horse industry and the champions that are both bred and trained here. The Hilton Ocala takes a great deal of pride in bringing that championship feeling home to each and every guest. While our own "resident Clydesdale" Buddy may not be the racing type, he... More

I was travelling through Ocala with a buddy, and we booked a room at this hotel on reward points. We were presently surprised when arrived to find out the room we had booked was the presidential suite. The room was about three normal rooms, it had a walk-in-closet a wet bar, a awesome king bed along with a flat screen.... More

Every once in a while you get the lucky draw of the cards, and that makes for a memorable event. Since both our 8th and 9th floors are VIP key access floors, and your presidential suite was on the 9th floor...you had the benefit of an enormous, well-appointed suite as well as key-access to your floor and the VIP lounge....

If you like being in the center of Ocala's horse country and meeting the nicest people...you certainly chose the right place on the right weekend to visit the Hilton Ocala. As we approach the area's big April thoroughbred sale at Ocala Breeders Sales, we are always proud to host some of the most respected people in that industry during their... More

This is a small city, but if you are in town this is the hotel for people who want to soak up the atmosphere of Ocala, particularly if you are there during the 'horse sales season' huge laughs when the Irish or Aussies are in town!

Good Day! It's always nice to know when we do a great job, and our guests feel "at home" during their travels. Our "resident" Clydesdale BUDDY is always a popular guy with our guests and a well-known part of the horse country story in Ocala.
