The hotel was under renovation, unknown to us. There was no restaurant availability on the premises. We therefore had to go to the lodge right down the street where we had to wait 30 minutes to place our self service order. For the price we paid for our accommodations (a cabin which was fine), I expected much more in terms of the Lake Yellowstone Lofge itself.

We checked in the second week of September. We were not told the hotel and dining services would be closed down. Our closest option to eat was at the neighboring lodge which was poor cafeteria style food. Also, there was NO wifi and cell reception was nill. The room available was a basic cabin. There are no signs to be able to find the place. We drove 45 minutes beyond before we found anyone who could tell us where it was since our phones couldn't direct us. Very disappointed.

The cabin had no amenities, the bed was uncomfortable, there were few blankets even the night temps were in the 30s, there was little storage space, food service very limited and expensive and our room cost over $300 when it was barely more than a tent.

The $400 /night Cabins were using same decor and furnishings since they were first built, probably 60 yrs ago. Thankfully, they are next to the parking lot with no views. On the plus side, They were quiet and clean .

We liked the fact that elk were grazing right across the road from the hotel. The room was adequate, but not worth 500$. The food left much to be desired. Staff seemed to not want to be bothered with questions. Would not stay here again

Filthy room, urine behind toilet, dust everywhere. Clean sheets, clean towels, but surfaces under desk and table appear to not have been dusted in months. All this for $499 per night!!! Shame on Xanterra. Never again. I will happily drive from a surrounding town to enter the park in the future. And NO DINING ROOM?!?! Thankfully, I bought dehydrated food. Yellowstone is fantastic. Hotel services are the over-priced cost of that beauty.
