We stayed in the cabins next to the Yellowstone Hotel. I was initially worried the cabins were going to be too “rústic” or not updated. They were neither. Perfect location, away from some of the hustle and bustle of the park. Clean, comfortable, good heating. Recommendation: grab breakfast at the Fishing Bridge general store rather than the Lodge down the road. Also, do not expect WiFi, even at the lodge.

No WiFi....sorry, the world depends on it now.....I liked the wildlife around the cabins. Easy to get everything out of our car because our cabin was close to the parking space.

We loved the charm of this newly renovated property. Beautiful lake views. Comfortable room and bed. The restaurant wasn’t open yet so cannot evaluate the dining facilities.

Not as advertised. For the money, not a good value. Picture of the Hotel deceptive--when you get there you are put in an unattractive cabin.

The location is incomparable. It snowed in late June, so we got to see Yellowstone as it is in both winter and summer in the same trip. Magical. Snow covered mountains in June, visible across the lake, were awesome. Too cold for a boat ride. We liked our cabin. Quiet, comfortable, safe. One beautiful elk was ever present on the property. Unfortunately, the main hotel was not yet open, so the restaurant was not open either. That was disappointing. The cafeteria-style dining at a nearby lodge was not great. The hotel staff was courteous and accommodating. The lack of WiFi, while it could be considered a plus while on vacation, was actually a liability for us. They need to vacuum and clean better behind the headboards of the beds (very dusty).

Not the best stay

Check in was a mess. The woman didn’t know what she was doing and said we are staying at a hotel 1.5 hours away. She was wrong. It took forever for her to figure it out. No air conditioning. No WiFi

Disappointed for the price paid

We stayed here during our trip to Yellowstone. Although the hotel boasts an unplugged atmosphere there wasn’t even a tv in the room. The phone signal in Yellowstone is very spotty so I personally feel WiFi would make the hotel more appealing. The room was rather small but it was tidy. Overall, for the price we paid I wish we would have stayed somewhere else.
