Top Thunder Spring Hotel Reviews

Best Western Tyrolean Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Room was spacious and the breakfast was very good. The hotel has a cute ski chalet style with vintage travel posters for decoration. I’d absolutely stay here again."

Tamarack Lodge Sun Valley

8/10 Good

"Room was clean, king suite was spacious in living room. Bedroom/bathroom were a bit tight. Basic amenities provided with upgrade in quality products offered - duraflame log for fireplace, body care products & Starbucks coffee pods. They accepted pets, which was great and had little courtyard with slider for easy access. Staff was very helpful!!"

Hotel Ketchum

8/10 Good

"Great included breakfast. Didn’t use the amenities (pool, gym, etc) I have a complain though. I was allocated beside a room with dog guests. Why should I have to hear them barking? I’m the one on vacation and have to deal with that noise, plus a party outside that didn’t end till midnight!! I made the reservation on may, put got the worst view of the hotel. Why is that? Shouldn’t I been given preference?"

Silver Creek Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Nice property to stay at. We were only there one night. But the location was great for our travels. Dinner at Despo’s (Mexican food) is just down the road too. Lucy’s for breakfast or lunch is right by Silver Creek Hotel too. Breakfast at hotel only served til 9am, which is ok, but we don’t get moving by then!!"
