In proper british English it is "I went to hospital", since it's a health care institution like school and college are educational institutions. Note, you use "I went to school" and not "I went to the school", as you use "I went to college" and not "I went to the college", it would be different if you used it in specific situations: "I went to hospital"( I don't know if also putting a reason such as 'because I was ill' is still correct so I finished there), while it is "I went to THE hospital to visit my sick friend."
