"For a historic property that is the oldest in Yellowstone National Park, this hotel is impressively maintained. The setting on the shore of Yellowstone Lake is outstanding. We enjoyed having dinner in the Sun Bar while the sun was setting over the beautiful lake. Breakfast the next morning in the Dining Room was great. We stayed here for only 1 night on the second day of a 3-day, 2-night trip from our base in Big Sky, MT. We had taken time to drive the incredible Beartooth Scenic Highway west to east and then stay in Red Lodge for 1 night. The next day, we drove through Cody (where we spent most of the day at the superb Buffalo Bill Center of the West) to re-enter the NP and then spend a night at this hotel. The location of the hotel fit our needs perfectly since we wanted to be in the park to spend an entire day touring Yellowstone Lake, Fishing Bridge, Canyon, and West Thumb. Staff members here are friendly, helpful and efficient."
