    comfortable bed
    modern décor

    The modern décor is simple yet elegant. Loved the comfortable beds in the standard twin room! Had a nice bath/shower and received a useful set of toiletries. Felt super relaxed here!

    Standard King Room with nice bedding made for a comfy night. Location near the local amenities gave a fair bit of convenience for grabbing essentials before heading back to the room.

    The cocktail bar closed all day on Sundays caught me off guard, leaving no options for an evening meal or drink after a long day. the hotel is being used for housing, lending a rather chaotic atmosphere with noisy neighbors and a lack of privacy. The communication about facilities definitely needs polishing, as misleading information led to unnecessary frustrations during my stay.

    service issue

    I stayed in a Standard King Room for one night. The staff were friendly, and the room was clean, which made for a comfortable stay. the shower temperature fluctuated, which was inconvenient, and the breakfast was not well managed, with items running out quickly during service hours.

    great stay but uncomfortable mattress protector

    The staff provided excellent hospitality that made us feel welcome. The breakfast offered a wide variety of delicious options, contributing to an enjoyable start to our day.

    The plastic mattress protector disrupted our sleep.

    Family with children not bad for a night

    Had a pretty big room with a nice bathroom, big bath and fluffy towels, its all about the lil things right. The restaurant was chill, did a good breakfast and the staff explained where things were which is nice.

    Wasn't the cheapest place but you get what you pay for.

    fantastic buffet
    lack of kid activities

    We spent the night at a lovely hotel that made for a memorable birthday celebration. The staff were super friendly and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. Our room was cozy, and the nearby restaurant offered a fantastic buffet spread.

    My children wished there were more kid-friendly activities on-site.

    It was just an ideal choice for a weekend breather in Widnes with good price value. The room was cleaned well and appreciated the friendly reception staff. Try to avoid dining here as the food was quite disappointing.

    cozy suite
    great price
    terrace relaxation
    minor noise

    I had a lovely stay and really enjoyed the cozy living space in my suite along with the fantastic price that made it a steal. The terrace was perfect for unwinding with a drink, and the garden area was a great spot to relax in the sun. I’d definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for a good deal! 🌟

    needed refurb

    The Hillcrest Hotel had a lovely, welcoming ambiance with friendly staff who were always ready to assist. I particularly appreciated the spacious rooms that provided comfort and included brewing facilities, making my stay feel quite homely.

    The bathroom could benefit from some updating.

    My stay was good, loved the friendly staff and comfy bed in the Standard King Room! The only downside was the shower pressure, which could be better. 😊

    Amazing staff and convenient location

    I had a lovely stay for 2 nights in a Standard Twin Room while attending a family funeral. The staff were incredibly warm and went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable, particularly Lucy at reception and Louise in the bar. The hotel had a cozy atmosphere that made it feel inviting. The only improvement needed would be some minor updates to the bathroom facilities.
