What guests say
8.4 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 673 guest reviews
The Hillside Inn earns consistently positive sentiment for its spectacular downtown views, spotless rooms, and genuinely warm staff, making most guests happy to return. However, a recurring thread of practical niggles — dated furnishings, limited parking, inconsistent breakfast, and small in-room inconveniences — suggests the property doesn't always feel like full value for money. Overall it is a well-liked, characterful hotel that impresses on ambience and location but has room to improve on in-room comfort and amenities.
