First time at Yellowstone National Park

Reviewed By Chris5331

We stayed at Kelly Inn for three nights in the latter part of May, 2022. The staff are polite and attentive and the rooms are super clean. The breakfast is amazing and really fills you up to start a day in the park. The only negatives that we noticed were noisy people above us and a bathtub shower that felt like it was sloped downhill, much like showering in a boat. I would suggest getting a room on the top floor to avoid those clomping sounds and check out the shower beforehand. All-in-all our stay was nice and the location to the park entrance couldn't be better.

Motel 6 at premium price

Reviewed By Sheep2ndrow

Well here are the good; Clean, good bed and pillows, good shower, good coffee and tea in the lobby. Issues and problems; no drawers, no closet (hangers on a rack, very hard to use) , hard carpet tiles, bad lighting, 2 plastic chairs (emes style but very uncomfortable) couch that faces nothing (TV is around a corner) fan in bath never shuts off, no mini fridge, no in room coffee, stained leather pad on shelf/desk, no outlet for charger on one side of the bed. We paid over$400 a night? Not much they can do about the Saturday 7AM garbage truck banging into the building but be aware that this did happen. I gave them an average only because the staff was great. Really exceptional, friendly, prompt, careful, available and fun. But the place is poorly furnished and equipped. Minimalist? I guess, good? Not for me.

Great location and layout

Reviewed By RoadWarrior71

Things I like: Very scenic property with the creek, the paths, the multiple places to sit on the property, the cabins themselves, walking distance to downtown Jackson Hole, rainforest shower, great pool (with warm water), hot tub, and sauna. We'll definitely stay here again if we're in the area. Rent a bike on site if you have the time and bike into Grand Teton National Park with the path that goes right by the hotel (on the other side of the street). You can bike 40 miles or more into the park - it's all paved and it's all flat, and it's very scenic. Things I'd like to see improved Hot water in the showers, a bathtub vs. shower only, better lighting in the fitness room so that you can read a magazine while working out The buffet breakfast offered a wide selection but I didn't think the quality of the food was top notch.

Good hotel, needs a facelift and better lighting

Reviewed By Sherpa628434

The Lodge at Jackson Hole has a great location near (but not in) the main downtown area with all the tourist shops. Although the hotel could use a facelift, the rooms were not bad. The staff were friendly and helpful - even the very overworked bartender/server and breakfast staff. Their service was great. The front desk staff were great too. Our biggest complaint is the lack of decent lighting in the rooms.

Explorer Cabins At Yellowstone

Cabins are GREAT, management needs help

Reviewed By 564aed

These cabins are wonderful. We traveled with a dog and having the front porch, kitchenette, the shower, and the spacious cabin were excellent. Gray Wolf Lodge manages them and the desk personnel were just about the worst you could imagine. Slow, uninterested in helping, unable to multitask. I was at the desk 3 times during our stay and each time 2-3 desk clerks could only help one persons at a time. The cabin Wifi was not available - they didn't care.. The phone in the cabin could not reach the front desk - they didn't care. Overall, I highly recommend these cabins - just not the Gray Wolf staff.

Lake Yellowstone Hotel and Cottages

Upon arrival, the hotel’s massive white columns welcome you to a time of classic, yet casual elegance. The historic Lake Yellowstone Hotel completed extensive interior renovations in June, 2014, restoring it to its Colonial Revival heritage. The hotel was also awarded Green Seal Lodging Certification for sustainable operations and was recently designated a National Historic Landmark in 2015. The multi-million dollar project included all guest rooms, dining room, bar and public spaces and a redesigned deli. Lake Yellowstone Hotel offers wired internet service and a business center.

Xanterra should lose their Naitional Park monopoly

Reviewed By CalAlPal

We rented a suite from May 13 (the season opening day) through May 18. For over $800 per night you get a large but otherwise unimpressive room. Everything just seemed to be dated. One reason for my choice of a suite was for sound isolation. Every other hotel orients their suites so that the bedroom is separated from the hallway. At the Lake Yellowstone, the bedroom has a hallway door. Brilliant. Although the hallway noise was not bad, it should have been non-existent. The hotel has no wi-fi. Yes, I know one should focus on nature in a National Park -- and we did. Yet there was no way to check Park attractions, check flights or transportation, etc. We have Mint mobile (which uses T-mobile towers). No cell or internet (hotspot) service. Verizon and AT&T does have varying service. I was able to hotspot off my friends' cellphone. The lack of hotel wi-fi is really an unforgivable oversight. Housekeeping is incredibly substandard. They say that housekeeping will only come by every 3 days. Actually, it's worse than that. We stayed 5 days and they came by on day 4. Need I remind you that this is a $800 per night room? The associated services throughout the Park are also run by Xanterra. How they got this franchise for the entirety of Yellowstone Park (and apparently all other National Parks) is beyond my comprehension -- as most general stores, restaurants, and other businesses were not open because they reportedly did not hire sufficient staff. While the staff at the Hotel was excellent (except for nearly non-existent housekeeping), Hotel management and upper management at Xanterra are obviously deficient.
