Stayed at this property numerous times over the years. They’ve made wonderful updates and it truly feels like a mountain lodge with an amazing bar and gorgeous seating area. The restaurant was closed so we didn’t get to try it. Would highly recommend it to anyone wanting a quiet escape to a truly charming inn.

Unfortunately this was our second stay at HMH in the past 12mos and each time we were greeted with a surprise. We want so much to LOVE this property but unfortunately feel it is quite overpriced considering the lack of attention to detail and disclosure. Positives - Bed and linens were cozy, comfortable and clean. The fireplace was roaring and lobby warm. Cons - This visit we were "surprised" by learning the restaurant was closed for 2 weeks. We prefer the convenience of an all in one property and typically at a boutique style hotel we plan to take in ALL amenities disclosed. I did go back to the website and drilled down on the restaurant tab to find a small print disclosure of this. Unfortunately this was not disclosed on the hotel main website tab when I attempted to book directly, nor expedia as an amenity that was not available. While the HMH is charming in style they lack in attention to detail and these types of disclosures. Our room was in the bunkhouse and was rather chilly and drafty. The hair dryer was extremely dated and only blew cold air to which I shared with the front desk staff. The trash can had not been emptied and there was only one tiny trash receptacle available in the room. The front porch was quite scattered with firewood and exterior somewhat neglected. We will try other lodging options next time in Highlands but still love the coziness of the Ruffed Grouse onsite restaurant and will return for dining only in the future.

Beautiful property in such a great location! The rooms were on the smaller side but so beautiful & cozy, and honestly we wanted to spend most of our time on the first floor by the fire or outside enjoying a glass of wine!

Convenient to downtown, easy to walk to dining. Only thing the rooms need are bigger garbage can(s) and USB ports for charging. Staff was wonderful, Delores, Jane, Suzanne and Sherry the manager. All helpful and friendly. Oh Yea, need to get the propane tank filled for the outdoor fire pit.

HMH is good, bunk house not great!
Our stay was a lot of fun in highlands, NC. Overall the HMH is good, beautifully decorated and cozy. The negatives were that the hotel bar was closed every night we were there. Also the bunk house is very loud. You can hear other guests and noises outside very easily. Also they definitely lean into the vintage decor, however we had a dresser that was missing 3 knobs so you couldn’t utilize the drawers. There were also sconces on the wall that were loose and falling out of the wall.

We stayed for 3 nights, would have given 5 stars but the restaurant and bar were closed for our entire stay, “staffing issues”. Kind of inconvenient, but there are options within walking distance.

A wonderful stay. Loved the cozy, rustic charm, though it was a little too luxurious to really be called rustic. Also had a delicious dinner at the Ruffed Grouse, part of the hotel.

Location of the hotel was excellent and convenient. It was the tiniest hotel room I’ve been in since the UK. Bed was okay. AC was awful, loud, and constantly recycling until I set it to 62. One of the worst rooms ever. It should have been a $50 room except for its location.
