My husband and I stayed here just for a weekend getaway. We stayed in one of the suites. The room was very clean. Hot tub in the room was very clean also. Room was a nice size with a walkout balcony. We had a great time in Madison walking around the little shops. This was a nice place to return... More

My wife and I stayed here for a short weekend getaway. We opted for the cheaper, non-riverview room. To make this short and sweet, the pros: cheap price, good location, clean room, comfortable bed. The cons: thin walls, lack of hotel info (time of breakfast, checkout time) not offered at desk, housekeeping (with baby on cleaning cart!) making too much... More

Hillside Inn is a great option if you are going to Madison. Wonderful view of the Ohio River and downtown Madison from each room's private balcony. The price is better than many of the B&B's in Madison. You can tell that Hillside is pretty old but it is still in good shape. The rooms was nice and clean. Service was... More

We stayed in a non-smoking balcony room for 3 nights and had a great time. The rooms are very clean and have plenty of room with a bench for suitcases, comfy chair, table with chairs, refrigerator, closet space, etc. The continental breakfast was basic, but decent. The hallways and occasionally the balcony did smell smokey, but it was never a... More

My wife and I recently stayed at the Hillside Inn for a weekend getaway. She had stayed here numerous times years ago and suggested it for this weekend in Madison. While it is a throughback to the days of the Rat Pack and the 60's and 70's, the room was clean, updated and comfortable. The atmosphere made you feel like... More

We have stayed here now three times in the last year. It's gotten to the point where we check room availability here first before anywhere else. Clean, comfortable. We had no problems with smoking odors and neither of us is a smoker so I think we'd have noticed! All the rooms have town or river facing balconies and the views... More

The lobby has an odd smell to it, the hallways reeked of cigarette smoke and the room smelled musty. The view was pretty good. We stayed two nights. The first night we couldn't fall asleep because we could hear something dripping. We finally found the source. There was water dripping from the ceiling in the closet (it wasn't raining)... Probably... More

Well I was there Thursday night, Friday night, Saturday night..they charges me for Sunday even though I wasn't there. Their reason: there's a... More

The room was a smokers dream. Since they still allow smoking in only some rooms. We made last minute reservations and had to take a smoking room. And try as they might the room stunk. They did say we could burn candles that helped. The room Had the best bed on earth hard not to fall asleep in it. The... More
