Thank you for your feedback. I'm glad you felt safe and comfortable at the Great Norther Hotel. Our staff works really hard. We hope to see you again.

5 out of 5
Location was central to the City of Helena. Overall the facility was clean, would recommend vacuuming elevators as sweeping doesn't always address the corners. Great Breakfast with an extremely courteous staff tending the breakfast area. Silver Star Steak House was good, a bit pricey but good. The service the first night was mediocre and was outstanding the second time.
