Long thought to continuously turn only one side toward the sun, the planet Mercury actually does slowly rotate. This was proved conclusively in 1965. All of the other known planets also rotate. There is therefore no planet that meets your criterion. If by hidden you mean unseen from Earth, then cloud-shrouded Venus would qualify.
