Booked last minute while traveling through and needed a quick overnight stay. Upon entering, the lobby was very inviting with beautiful Christmas decorations and a warm fireplace—especially appreciated given how cold it was outside. We visited the on-site Irish pub to watch Sunday night football and were greeted by friendly staff. It was also great that both the hotel and pub are dog-friendly, allowing us to bring our pup along. The beds were comfortable, and the room was clean. We would definitely stay here again.

Everything was great! We’ve been coming here for almost 5 years. It’s nice to see familiar faces. It would be great if the room carpets were deep cleaned or replaced. Still, we love it here and will return if we go to Rapid City again.

The staff was friendly enough. However, we couldn't check into our room until 5 pm. After waiting to check in and getting settled, they moved us to a different room on a different floor. Our new room had no closet or hooks for hanging clothing. The TV remote needed new batteries. And the Keurig was broken. I will not stay here again!

The service, the room, the valet was all wonderful!!! But someone had a small dog at the hotel (not sure what room) but it was a yappy dog. I was kind enough to not call the front desk. what I did instead was waited until 10:30 to see if they’d come back and if so, I wouldn’t call, if they didn’t show, I was calling. I’m all for pets to come with, but if they are the yappy kind, be polite to other guests. Do better as a pet owner. No shame at all on the hotel.

Parking is always difficult when staying here but the stay is worth the headache. There was construction going on in the building so the noise of that started pretty early and made it impossible to sleep but this will always remain my go to place to stay when coming to Rapid City.
