just spent a week on Norf'k and stayed at the Hillcrest. We had the room above the reception...a bit bigger and (like most rooms) a great view. Tim, the manager, was the most helpful i have ever experienced (good work tim!). The chef is very good...try the restaurant...but then there are plenty of places to eat on Norfolk.

We arrived at this Hotel around midnight. There had been an arilines dispute in Brisbane and our plane left 4 hours late. Many folk were not in a good mood and were still complaining when they arrived on Norfolk. The Owner of Hillcrest met us in dressing gown and slippers - nobody had told her about the delay. There were... More

The hotel room overlooked beautiful views of the ocean and even inside, the things were nice and definitely worth mentioning, specially the cleanliness and comfortable bed. Luxury is not something that welcomes you at Hillcrest, but you will love the way their staff maintain hospitality and do the interaction with their guests. About the views, the most said would be...

Thank for your comments - what Hillcrest lacks in luxury we try to make up by doing the extra in our customer service. We try to ensure that all our guests enjoy their stay & go away with lots of "warm & fuzzy" feelings about Norfolk Island & particularly Hillcrest. Your feedback is important. Thank you Ann & Alex More

Double LJ's Thank you for your great comments. We appreciate all feedback & the problem with heating is one that arises from time to time. There is no form of heating in the motel rooms - normally not a problem - but we have had a colder winter than normal this year. Electric heating & cooking on Norfolk Island is... More

We booked online in advance (via credit card). Pickup from the airport was arranged, and we were lucky and upgraded to the queen suite, which basically had a large terrace facing the great ocean view, huge bed and spacious room, with ktichen, welcome hibiscus flower on the bed, nice bathroom. The pilots (usually just one plane arriving a day) stayed... More

We visited Norfolk Island in July 2011 and stayed at the Hillcrest. The staff were fantastic and this three star hotel does not pretend to be anything else. We paid extra and upgraded to a cottege which were more private and excellent, spacious but not Luxurious. If you are on a budget the standard hotel rooms may be OK.

Great location, central to Burnt Pine and only a small drive to Kingston and beautiful Emily Bay. We loved it! The cottages have great views and are relatively private. Nothing was too much trouble. Food in restaurant was also great. Best pick from our point of view. Reasonably priced.

My friend and I stayed for 10 days in a very quiet cabin at Hillcrest hotel and holiday appartments. It was divine. A short walk from the great shopping centre but still quiet enough to hear the surf in the background. No use being on Norfolk if you don't have a view.
