Outstanding in the quality of its provision - rooms very comfortable and well-equipped; breakfast excellent in quality and breadth of provision. Many items home-made. Above all, a welcoming, friendly ambience and attention to detail. Strongly recommended.

The most stylist and welcoming hotel in The IOW
We had a wonderful bank holiday weekend at Hillside. The hotel itself is beautifully decorated and has a wonderful conservatory overlooking the sea and tennis courts, perfect for a relaxing afternoon drink. The hotel staff were all so welcoming and friendly, it really made us feel at home. The local knowledge of Ventnor and the rest of the island was much appreciated, and we enjoyed the resturaunt recommendations! A real secret gem on the island, almost too good to share!

Fantastisk ophold på Hillside
Fik en fantastisk modtagelse på hotellet og blev forkælet fra vi kom. Hotellet er flot renoveret med meget pæne og rene værelser. Hotellet ligger roligt i dejlige omgivelser. Ikke langt fra promenaden og bymidten hvor der er lidt liv.
