What an amazing way to start our family vacation in yellowstone! We flew in to Bozeman, MT and made a fairly quick journey down through Gardiner and part of the upper loop to West Yellowstone. We could have also opted to drive from Bozeman outside of the park, I heard this was also a beautiful drive.
Check-in was quick and had all the conveniences of parking, elevators, lobby area, etc. It was also very easy to get to from town. The rooms were all clean with plenty of linens as you would expect in a high-scale hotel. They provided coffee products, soaps and toiletries, laundry facilities in the room, and a very friendly staff.
The units don’t come with air conditioning, but the cool Montana air comes in through screened windows at night and was plenty cool enough for my Louisiana family. They also offer box fans to circulate the air. We visited in early August and the temperature was in the low 70s during the day and cooled off to the 40s-50s at night.
We were across the street from a very nice grizzly bear and wolf discovery center that gives close up views of these amazing animals. We also walked over to the IMAX one evening for a movie. There are restaurants and shops all along the main drag and the town is hopping with activity in the evening.
We utilized the pool and spa as well as some games in the lobby. They also have movie rentals for a night in.
All in all, it was a great place for us to relax at the end of the day and feel at home. Check in and check out were seamless. We would gladly stay here again!
