From the moment we arrived for our anniversary weekend we were made to feel most welcome. Our themed room Tuscany was very comfortable & the owners attention to detail & excellent service was highlighted with the breakfast served in our room on the first morning! Unique Boutique sums up this excellent hotel & we shall return! Highly recommended!

Attending a conference in the busy seaside resort of Torquay, I was delighted to find a quiet place to stay at the Hillcroft. This boutique hotel is up the hillside away from the crowds but easy to walk to the high street and harbour. Upon arrival I was welcomed with a refreshing tea and cake. The rooms are decorated each... More

We had just stayed in an expensive large chain hotel in Bristol, small, dark impersonal rooms and soul-less decor. We decided to add a few days extra to our holiday by returning to The Hillcroft and we were not disappointed! What a contrast. We stayed in Amsterdam - recently refurbished with really good lighting (important to me) and a lovely... More

Twice a year we go to Torquay and we got for three reasons and the first reason is The HIllcroft. Where to start. The... More

Everything was totally groovy. We have no hesitation in recommending these super hosts and their very unique offer. If you like different this will be for you. The booked treatment massage that was arranged for me was awesome. Nothing was too much trouble. We loved it and will defo return when next in the area.

We had an excellent weekend at The Hillcroft; the building is full of character, the room was fantastic, all the comforts for a weekend getaway. Hospitality was fantastic, nothing is too much trouble, and the proprietors have excellent knowledge of the area (where to eat/drink). Already booked to go back for New Year, excellent getaway, thank you

Everything to do with our stay was really positive. Stuart was incredibly friendly and hospitable and gave us good advice on how to spend our short stay in Torquay. The hotel is lovely and we were very impressed and pleased with our room. The breakfast was great too. I'm recommend The Hillcroft to anyone. Many thanks,Tim & Mary
