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

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities

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.

Staying in the cabin was rustic. Limitations of food opportunities were addressed ahead of time, but did not quite realize the extent thereof. Lobby of hotel was a grand experience and a trip back in time!

We stayed for 3 nights in a cabin. Basically two beds and a bathroom. Not even a box fridge or cheap microwave. For the price it should have been much better. Except for the beds there was nothing else. Disappointing. The associated hotel was closed in early September so there was no place to eat except a hotel down the road which had an abysmal dining room with abysmal food. Just a very basic place to stay with a very high price due to no competition .

So-So

The cabin was nice and spacious and warm, nicely cleaned. Obviously, the Yellowstone hotel has wifi, but they did not allow their guests to access which was pretty poor, in my opinion. The restaurant was also closed and the Lake Lodge was not a great option. A cafeteria style restaurant is not good at high end restaurant prices. I understand it is end of season, but still.

You must request room service. The dining room was closed. No bell hop service in the building. I understand not having WiFi in the rooms. We were told to go to a lodge where there was WiFi. The WiFi wasn't adequate to service all the guests that were trying to use it. I could go on. Very disappointed.

I thought we would be in the hotel, not in a cabin that looks like an army barracks cabin for GIs. The area around the cabin is barren and dry. We thought we were getting a view of the lake in a hotel room. Alas, not. The kitchen was closed for the season, so off down the road for meals to Wiley's canteen. I knew about that ahead of time. Still...

Lacking signage for where to check-in for yellow cabins. Hotel lobby was beautiful. Lake Lodge food not appealing and no better options due to construction at the hotel. Yellow cabins are smaller than expected to have 2 beds.
