You can't get rid of the ' marks unless you create a Text Widget for each line. That is just the way Python and IPython displays strings.

For a cleaner display of your text and links, use the HTML Widget in ipywidgets:

import ipywidgets as widgets

text = widgets.HTML('Hyperlink below:')
link = widgets.HTML(
    value="<a href=http://www.google.com target='_blank'>Go to Google</a>",
)

display(text)
display(link)

Hi, do you know how I can set the font-size of the hyperlink? The usual layout way doesn't appear to work out.

You can use normal html formatting tags w3schools.com/tags/tag_font.asp
