Good choice
A weekend with my pre-teen grandkids at Yellowstone NP. This hotel was an excellent location: walking distance to multiple restaurants & shops, short drive to the west entrance of the park, so much to see and do! The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful, the facility is clean & comfortable with a great breakfast buffet, a lovely pool & hot tub, but no workout facility. We had an oversized room with two comfy & fresh queen beds. One big problem was a lack of private space to change clothes; only a small water closet (tub & toilet) area with limited maneuverability. We made due, but families or friends should be aware. Overall it's a very good choice!

The hotel was good with a nice big room that was extremely spacious. However, the bathroom was very small. The sink was outside in the room and separate to the toilet and bathroom. This was inconvenient. The room was clean and the microwave and fridge facilities were very good. The room needs to refurbished and modernised.

This is a dated and well worn property but comfortable and spacious. Good location and walkable to the main area of restaurants and shops. We enjoyed our daily breakfast even though they served the same food for our three mornings there.

The room was clean and comfortable. The staff here did a great job. There is free Wi-Fi and free breakfast. Everything is close by to the hotel. It is conveniently located near the Yellowstone National Park West Entrance which is great.
Everything is close by like restaurants, supermarket, souvenir stores, IMAX theater and museum.

We had a great stay. The beds were very comfortable, the run was spacious, the pool clean, and the breakfast was amazing. The price was high, but we got what we paid for. We had quality service and they cleaned up amazingly well. Very impressed with the staff.

It was nice and quiet. Had easy access to areas in the town. The breakfast wasn’t bad, just wish the time was a little longer than 6-9, at least for the fountain drinks. Overall not a bad experience.

This property is convenient since it is literally around the corner from the Yellowstone West Entrance. LOVE the breakfast options...The best even the 5 stars hotels can't compare to the selections. The minor con is the bathroom is small and the toilet is low. Overall, highly recommended.
