Reviews and Ratings
This hotel is in a prime location, just steps away from the park entrance and very close to the Madison gift shop. The rooms are spacious and modern, some with a bathroom and others with shared shower facilities. The service was impeccable, and the tours and ticket assistance provided were top-notch. Dining options were excellent, especially with the included voucher for the establishment next door. On the downside, the lack of air conditioning in some rooms was a bit uncomfortable, and the parking could be improved.
The hotel is wonderfully close to Yellowstone Park and located in the center of town. The rooms offer both shared and private shower options, with comfortable bunk beds and bathrooms. The dining experience includes delicious freshly baked European bread but may be extra depending on where you eat, and tours/ticket assistance is available. I enjoyed the facilities, but the tiny bathrooms might not suit everyone's needs.
I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The room was clean and comfortable, but the bathroom was tiny. The service was exceptional, and the location was perfect, just a short walk to everything. The dining options were great as we could use a voucher at the neighboring establishment. However, the facilities were a bit lacking, but overall, excellent value for money.
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The location was convenient, and the rooms were comfortable, but the dining options were limited. The service was good, and the facilities were well-maintained.
