Top Sawtooth National Recreation Area Hotel Reviews

Mountain Village Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"A great place to stay. The price was good and it was quiet."

Limelight Hotel Ketchum

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location! Quick drive to the resort and walkable to many restaurants. Breakfast was yummy. Room was comfy and well appointed. We will be back."

Hotel Ketchum

10/10 Excellent

"Great little hotel right downtown. Very walkable with a basic but hot free breakfast. Front desk staff was very friendly. Rooms were clean. Only downside was you could hear quite a bit of noise in the room and only a half shower wall."

Tamarack Lodge Sun Valley

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the balcony out our sliding door. Wonderful view of the mountains and ski area."

Sourdough Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, comfortable room."

Smiley Creek Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Great place with a great vibe. I wish the restaurant was actually open for decent hours. No breakfast and Dinner ended at 5Pm. With nothing close you have to make sure to bring food to cook or be willing to drive 30 minutes away to eat."

Sleeping..... by a River?

10/10 Excellent

"The rentals easy walking distance from Stanley’s restaurants and while more expensive than the local hotels, you have a whole house to yourself. It was spacious and clean, well stocked with the little things - salt and pepper - no one wants to buy for a couple of nights. For awareness, the water like a lot of places in the area is sulfur scented, so bring bottled water if sensitive. Recommend!"

Redwood Cabins

10/10 Excellent

"Very idyllic and beautiful location by the river. The space was just right for an overnight stay before heading into the hills."

Best Western Tyrolean Lodge

8/10 Good

"This is an old hotel. Room is clean but somehow small. Breakfast is good."
