The Highlander Hotel Dullstroom

The ambience was amazing. The service from the personnel was beyond reproach. The food was the most amazing appetizing lfood I’ve had for a long time. This is a hotel. I would recommend for anybody who wants a short or long break from their home routine. However, we were treated as if we were at home.

We rented (as a family of 4) 2 highlander suites which were very comfortable. The hotel staf helped us with our luggage and we had a great stay in our trip between Johannesburg and greater Kruger (Hoedspruit). I would recommend this hotel to everybody. Very comfortable, pleasant staf, clean, great breakfast and the onsite restaurant is extremely good! Also Dullstroom is a very nice place to stay when travelling from Johannesburg to Kruger.

My husband and I spent the weekend at the Highlander Hotel and had a fantastic stay. The room was very spacious, beautifully decorated and had everything we needef. With a lovely patio and stunning view. The fireplace was a lifesaver on the chilly nights. Staff were friendly. The food at the restaurant was out of this world. We will definitely be visiting again.

What an experience. Awesome venue. Attention to detail seems to be their moto. Service is excellent. From the staff in reception through to the chefs who want to do something different. Looking for a weekend away . This hotel should be on your list.

Another incredible stay at the Highlander Hotel. This place is just wonderful and never disappoints. Each time I stay it just gets better. The new decor to the rooms make you feel like royalty and the staff enhance that by always being ready and able to assit your every need with a friendly smile on their faces.

We stayed in one of the annex rooms which was just across the road from the main hotel. We were offered an upgrade for a supplement but decided it was only 2 nights, it wasn't worth the extra R1000+. The room was comfortable in itself but so very cold. The only heating was from the wood burner so coming back to a cold room when you’re freezing and now you have to build a fire (and hope it catches) and wait for some warmth to eventually find its way into the room, not a great experience. We were charged for an extra bundle of logs the following night, not a lot of money but surprising nevertheless. The electric blanket was a godsend so an early bed it was. We ate in the restaurant on the first night. Although I’d made a reservation way ahead it was pretty empty while we were there on the Sunday and the kitchen closed at 7.30pm. My husband had the oxtail which he enjoyed, I only had a starter as I wasn’t hungry. We weren’t inspired by the menu so cancelled our table for the following night. There was a varied breakfast menu, we both had the pancakes which were stodgy and not very nice, accompanied by sugar-solid honey. The staff were very helpful. The décor in the main hotel areas was tasteful. We may have possibly chosen the wrong room in the annex but as we won’t be going back we’ll never know.
