The hotel itself was the personal residence of the governor, and has been very well maintained and restored. You did feel like you were in the British countryside. The team were helpful and extremely attentive. The location was quiet and serene, next to the Hill Club and close to the Grand Hotel, and walking distance to Victoria Park and Lake Gregory.

This is a very cozy and nice hotel during our trip. The bungalow sits on the gentle hill slope, with nice lawn and garden. The building has a long history, yet it is renovated like a new one while keeping all its historical feels. Basically it makes you feel like staying in a authentic and neat English garden. The living room and dining room is all very cozy, and also our bedroom. And importantly, the staff there are really nice. They are so warm and welcoming, always had a smile on their face. So it's really relaxing to stay there.

“Wonderfully welcoming old world charm!”
We had an amazing time at Hill Cottage. It is a real hidden gem. Nestled behind the Grand Hotel, it gives the same old world charm but with a wonderfully personal touch. The team really seem to enjoy what they do and want to give everyone the best experience possible. Our son particularly loved the lively badminton matches with the staff who went out of their way to make him feel like family. He was so sad to leave. If you are looking for somewhere to stay that offers warm welcomes, big smiles and a touch of old world charm, Hill Cottage is for you!
