Top Excelsior Geyser Hotel Reviews

Kelly Inn West Yellowstone

10/10 Excellent

"There are many choices of hotels and motels in West Yellowstone of where to stay. We were happy with our choice. Kelly Inn was close to the center of town and within easy walking distance of restaurants and shopping. It was clean and quiet. The staff was friendly. We had trouble finding a parking spot close to our building one night, and had to park in a lot behind another building, but the hotel was full, which is good. We would stay there again if we plan another trip to Yellowstone Park."

Dude & Roundup

8/10 Good

"This property is somewhat barebones but it was clean and comfy. A coffee maker would have been nice since there was none available at the property location. The location of the property was convenient to West Yellowstone. Many things were within walking distance. I would recommend this if you want easy access to Yellowstone but be up early to get through the park entrance before the backup takes place."

Starlite Yellowstone, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms were clean, the pool and arcade a highlight for kids! Would recommend, would stay here again"

White Buffalo

10/10 Excellent

"Clean and spacious."

Old Faithful Snow Lodge & Cabins - Inside the Park

8/10 Good

"Overall a great place to stay and great base for exploring the Old Faithful area. The lodge is great, good amenities, including a good bar and grill and the staff were polite, helpful and attentive. The only issue we had was that the rooms were quite noisy, with next doors snoring heard clearly and the plumbing making it sound like next doors shower was in our room. Despite this, we would stay again."

Yellowstone Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was great. Mel was wonderful and very helpful. She made some cookies just for my wife and I are they ran out. We enjoyed the S'more packets they put out every night and roasting the marshmallows at the fire pit. The only issue i have was when I made the reservation, the advertisement from the hotel said we'd have a free hot breakfast every morning. But when we got there, we found out that free breakfast was only for guests during the busy season (May- August). I also wished they had hot chocolate available like they do coffee and tea. Other than that, things were great. One of the best events we did here was to visit the Grizzly and Wolf Discovery Center. Don't pass up visiting there. It's one block away. It's also a short walk to all the restaurants downtown. The hotel has 4 bicycles for us too."

Stage Coach Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Cute and clean!"

Holiday Inn West Yellowstone by IHG.

10/10 Excellent

Explorer Cabins At Yellowstone

10/10 Excellent
