Top Highland Hotel Reviews

Ramada by Wyndham Newburgh/West Point

10/10 Excellent

"Was a pleasant overnight stay"

Quality Inn Hyde Park Poughkeepsie North

8/10 Good

"First the good....the hotel was very clean. That is paramount to me, so I gave a very good rating due to that. There is no elevator so if you cannot do the stairs, you need to ask for a first-floor room. Even though we can easily do the stairs, taking up suitcases can be a challenge. Our room was pretty small, but it had all the amenities (TV, microwave, fridge). Breakfast was better than expected being the area was pretty small. No wheat bread - only white and plain bagels. Eggs and sausage were really good as was the waffle maker. All in all, although the beds were comfortable, I'm glad we were only there one night. Best for a brief layover......"

SureStay Plus Hotel by Best Western Highland Poughkeepsie

8/10 Good

"This is a cost-effective option for the region. The rooms are clean, but the motel has a run-down feel to it. When we arrived, the card-key generator wasn't working. Staff let us in to our room, and we got working keys the next morning, but I haven't run into that problem anywhere else. Likewise, the card-reader on a side entrance, which would have been very useful for accessing our room, was broken, necessitating a longer walk around to the front of the motel. In the shower, the plate behind the dial had come away from the wall. It didn't affect the quality of the shower (which was fine in terms of heat and pressure), but it's not a good look. Breakfast was good and plentiful (I had scrambled eggs and sausages, but there's also cereal, various breads, and a waffle-maker, with orange and apple juice). My wife and I would come back, and thus the "Good" overall rating."

Beekman Arms and Delamater Inn

10/10 Excellent
