“A cool place to go relax”
24 Jun 2025
I enjoy everything, friendly staff, especially Mich, breakfast was good, with multiple options. Nice view from my room, I wish I had time to jump into the swimming pool, and more likely, the quietness of the whole area, I have been in different hotels in the USA, I know what I experienced at Highlander. Bref, I will go again and I will recommend anyone else. KEEP THE GOOD JOB

“Great value for a cool hotel”
27 Feb 2023
The staff was very attentive. I stayed due to an impending snowstorm and they made the stay great. The offered to let me use a conference room for a zoom call and even brought be a robe when I was in the hot tub! They are doing some cosmetic work to the front of the building so was tentative when I came I . But with the wonderful staff and nice amenities it’s a great place to stay. And a cool place to have a family weekend (there’s and arcade m/pool/outdoor games).
