Top Great Plains Zoo Hotel Reviews

Highpoint Hotel

Highpoint Hotel

8/10 Good
"Travelers should be aware that although they are separate entities; the Sanford Children’s Hospital and High Point hotel are in fact in the same location and physically connected. I was a little surprised when we drove up to the Children’s Hospital area. Additionally I was very disappointed by the breakfast buffet. It would be better described as a continental breakfast. There were no eggs, potatoes, or breakfast meats. A very nice presentation but not a full breakfast by a long shot."
