The room was beautiful and had a cute theme. It was very quiet there and the central air was a blessing after the many under the window A/C’s we’d dealt with this week! Wonderful homemade breakfast and just very homey. We loved it!
I can't imagine anyone not being satisfied staying here! Clean, cozy rooms! Great staff! Location and views were excellent! Watch out for the Elk! I would definitely recommend it!
Wish we could have stayed here longer and enjoyed the view. Great omelette casserole breakfast (for adults), maybe add some kid friendly options like pancakes or waffles or kid cereal (I think there was Raisin Bran there). My child wouldn’t eat anything. Loved the room and front porch view.
This property has been lovingly updated to reflect the area with the beautiful log furniture and western decorations. The breakfast was homemade by the owners and they do everything to make their guests comfortable. The gorgeous view from the porch furniture is a bonus. It is about five miles from Gardiner so it's quiet and less busy with traffic in that entry point to Yellowstone. The only negative for us was the internet works most of the time but can be spotty which is understandable with it being out in the country.
Great little hotel. Very clean - great shower - comfy bed. All you could ask for.

We were checked in by their granddaughter? She needs work. Didn’t go to breakfast but the room was clean. Interesting, that some things were cleaned up but other things weren’t. Kinda creepy…
I loved my stay at Yellowstone Basin Inn. The room was perfect and had everything I could need, including comfy pillows and bed, a mini fridge and microwave and a great view. It was quiet and adorable and perfectly situated between town and the hot springs. I'll definitely go back.
The inn was very tidy and clean. Bed was comfortable! Only issues were with the cooktops. They only managed lukewarm heat for cooking.
Hot water was hit and plentiful!! Will recommend to friends traveling thru Gardiner!😊
