The Highlander is a very secured hotel we felt very safe. The food they offered was very tasty. Everyone at the hotel was very helpful in taking care of our needs whether it be towels or extra dishes. Overall would recommend to anyone traveling to the area for the first time. As we did.

The stay was ok. I requested the front desk to open the safe deposit in my room for my use but they never did. I was obliged to keep my bank cards, passport, etc. on me when going out☹

We stayed in recently refurbished room. Very comfortable. Staff very friendly and eager to please. Water and electricity supply interruptions during our stay but we can’t blame the hotel for that. Would definitely stay there again on our next visit.

Thank you for guest feed back it is greatly appreciated. The power issue is a hard one to fix however great news on the water we have commissioned a new Bore to be sunk in early February and a 3 phase filtration system so from than we will be able to supply continuous water supply without relying on Government infrastructure, again glad you enjoyed your stay i will ensure the staff hear of the good job they performed. All my best Leo Berka Regional General Manager

Response from manager on 12 Sept,2018
Hello Sam Thanks for your feedback and we take all feedback seriously good or bad.' I am sorry your dinning experience was not great and that you thought the cost was expensive, The biggest challenge for a remote hotel is the cost of supply unfortunately we can not control this but we do try our best to be competitive with all other outlets in the WHP, one thing we can control is the quality and i will use your feedback to work with the chefs and challenge them to improve the consistency and quality. The Food has been a big improvement in the hotel and this review is against the current trend which we will work hard to improve. Again I thank you for the feedback and it has been actioned for training and consistency improvements Your Sincerely Leo Berka

Good hotel - extensive construction in progress
The Highlander is a secure hotel in Hagen with pool, restaurant, bar and outdoor patio. It is currently under significant reconstruction (not advertised) with large areas closed off and construction noise during the day. The restaurant is open as is the bar. The staff at the hotel were excellent however sadly for me the hotel failed to arrange pick-up from the airport when I arrived (we waited around 45 minutes after calling them up from the airport) although I have to say they were excellent in arranging an early non-routine departure when I left. When I arrived at the hotel they then didn't have the room I had pre-booked and proceeded to offer me an alternate room with a mattress on the floor for my fellow travellers to sleep on. So I then had to argue the case and eventually was given a room upgrade following my protest. All I can say is - hard work! Fellow travellers do consider alternative accommodation in Hagen while the construction is underway as it is clearly affecting the hotel's service.

Le stanze sono spaziose, pulite e confortevoli. Ha un ristorante interno, con qualità del cibo discreta, il che torna molto comodo. Gli spazi esterni, a parte una veranda attaccata al ristorante, non sono un gran che. La piscina di adesso è quadrata, non come quella mostrata nelle foto. In genere, gli spazi esterni e comuni sono meno gradevoli di quello che fanno vedere le foto sul sito, mentre sulle camere non c’è niente da lamentarsi. Il prezzo mi è sembrato un po’ caro per quello che l’hotel offre, ma è anche vero che non ci sono molte alternative paragonabili, ed è piuttosto vicino al. Entro dell@ città.

Mt. Hagen ist nur zum Festival sehenswert!
Das Hotel ist von einer hohen Mauer umgeben, auf der noch 10 elektrisch geladene Drähte übereinander gespannt sind. Also wie in einem Gefängnis. Ist aber in Mt. Hagen wohl erforderlich, da die Kriminalität sehr hoch ist. Man fühlt sich im Hotel aber sicher.
