Staff was very friendly, helpful and professional. Décor in lobby, Madison's restaurant and Hummingbird lounge was charming and welcoming. It was cold outside so the many fireplaces were comforting and welcoming. Our room was a good size with a very comfortable bed, great sheets and nicely decorated. Overall, this is a great place. My only issue was with the bathroom in our room. While it had great amenities (love the towels), it is not designed for short people - getting in and out of the tub/shower combo was a bit of a challenge.
My husband and I stayed at Old Edwards Inn to celebrate our anniversary and we really enjoyed ourselves. The staff was so friendly and professional and everyone we came in contact with was so courteous. We had such a lovely stay.
recommend better time to stay around Highlands, is not during the late winter months as several restaurants close for the season. book reservations well in advance of any stay as best ones book up early and tougher to find somewhere to eat at the last minute. hotel restaurants also book up quickly. you can always cancel later.
there are 2 Sections to stay: Inn Facility is right downtown. the Lodge facilities are only 1 block away and are much more quiet than the Inn and very peaceful and walking distance to the hotel for breakfast and the main street for shopping.
16 of us found the Lodge Game Room at the lodge and brought our own beverages and watch football and there still was plenty of room for others to join.
This place is absolutely incredible. It was romantic, secluded, peaceful, and breathtakingly beautiful. We actually extended our stay because we were so pleased. The staff was above and beyond kind, helpful, and professional at every encounter. Worth every penny. We will be back.
Up-upscale, beautiful landscaping, classic dark wooden beams/paneling, best location, good food,excellent staff, some "over trained", thus annoying. Campus atmosphere requires walking-unless you stay in main bldg.Heated-tile floor in bathroom is nice.
