Well, its not often you find a place like this. A wonderful building and people who have a passion for trying to make us punters happy. I could attempt to pick holes in it but that would be churlish when someone like Kurt, who runs this place, is putting so much thought and care in to balancing quality,comfort, value and... More

We enjoyed our previous stays so much (and the cycling opportunities on the IOW) that we booked again. Gert and the team really know the meaning of the word hospitality and it is testiment to them that we again found our expecations being exceeded......we only stayed two nights but felt like we had been away for a week. Spotlessly clean,... More

For the sunniest part of the Isle of Wight we got mainly wet, but did get the chance to enjoy the superb garden for coffee one afternoon, the conservatory and garden are a great extension when the weather permits. Trying to describe the hotel is a challenge, but a good one! It is individual, immaculate and friendly. Booking the restaurant... More

Boy was it wet but Hiiside was superb:- a warm welcome, cosy rooms, interesting wine list and fab food all offset the miserable weather. Small bits were 7.00pm eating time a little too early I feel and the individual single duvets are an art form I didnt enjoy Overall a first class stay More

Like other trip advisor users, we have stayed at many small hotels but none can match Hillside for satisfaction. From the welcome on arrival throughout our 4 night stay we received outstanding care, kindness and determination to please and we must give special praise to Gerard for his delicious cooking. The renovation of the property has resulted in a delightful... More

This was our second visit and as with the first time it was a very pleasurable trip. The rooms and food were as usual very good. Gert was as ever attentive and charming. We also ate at the new Hillside Bistro in Ventnor. The food and service was excellent. So if you would rather not eat at the hotel this... More

Nothing too much trouble - Gert is a consummate host who values all his customers. The perfect place to stay - even looked out for my pregnant wife! More

My wife and I stayed 5-9 April and had a wonderful experiance. Comfortable beds, light and airy rooms, spotlessly tidy, minimalist styling, fantastic artwork, attentive staff, excellent food and an outstanding host (Gert). Choose this hotel if you are a discerning traveller. It's not cheap and cheerful but excellent value for money. The restaurant is first class (set meal at... More
