What guests think

At Hilltop Motel, travelers consistently describe an older, budget-style property where the rooms are notably clean and often updated, and the friendly, helpful staff make stays easy with straightforward comfort and good value.

Several reviews note a convenient, generally quiet location with easy access to town, transit, and basic shops. Drawbacks include some small rooms, occasional heating or noisy window A/C issues, minor nighttime noise or light intrusion, an isolated smoke smell report, sometimes slow Wi-Fi, and pricing that can feel high during busy weekends or with billing concerns. A practical choice for a simple overnight.

Very good value for the stay. The room was cleaned each day, linens changed and fresh towels. The room was warm and cozy, thermostat accessible. The unit is what I expected for being a budget motel, the only thing missing from the website overview was a hair dryer. Just ask at the desk if you need one, I guess? The only negative was the bright lights from the business next door shone through the windows at the back of the room and bathroom, but it didn't interfere with sleeping, and I actually found it helpful when I got up in the night to use the bathroom. I didn't have to turn on a light and wake up my kids. There is a Tim Hortons just 3 minutes' walk down the road, a grocery store just up the road if you want snacks. Conveniently on the transit route, the #4 bus goes right to both transfer points in Kingston.

Overall an excellent place to go ,,,, will be back when Kingston is calling.

Our room was SO clean! This was exactly what a budget motel should be. Nothing fancy, common areas/exterior a lower priority than the rooms, which were renovated post-covid. Bedding was new, comfortable, and so very clean. Window A/C unit worked well, and the manager made a point to turn it on before our arrival. Despite hallmarks of an older property (e.g. layers of paint in spots), everything in our room was spotless, even areas generally overlooked like behind doors and in a small crevice beside the sink. An easy drive to town and the lake…we will definitely return!

Obviously an older property but the rooms are very clean and have been updated. Not fancy but perfect for an overnight stay. The people in the office are friendly as well as the maintenance man. Check in was easy and fast. The only criticism was the registration form- it needs to be bigger and easier to read.

Pretty dumb that the males only are forced out of theee rooms rain or shine for 20 minutes daily for the staff to clean or pretend to clean. Usually a do not disturb sign on the door is sufficient enough but not for that place. When I asked the day manager if we could skip it cause we clean our on room he asked me if I’d like to go somewhere else
