Hydrogen bonding cannot form between H and Cl. The difference in electronegativity isn't that high to allow a very strong hydrogen bond to form. In addition to that, HCl is non-polar; it has induced dipole forces of attraction.
HCl is a polar molecules. H has a partial positive charge while Cl has a partial negative charge since chlorine is highly electronegative compared to hydrogen. The force between HCl molecules is permanent dipole attraction. Not induced dipole forces.

Why is the Ionic Radius of transition elements invariant?
