Overall it was a good stay. The service at the restaurants and bar weren't that great. There was minimal staff, long waits, and unrealistic expectations for receiving service. We were told our food would take 20 minutes to get out of the kitchen and it ended up taken just over an hour. Once received, it was the wrong order but it was so chaotic that we didn't care to complain and just left with what we had. The rooms were decent they could have been cleaner but they satisfied our requirement as we were only staying one night.

HOtel inside the park and next to all The famous spots and no microwave but fridge and coffee machine existed. Front desk staff not friendly and I got charged twice not sure for what reason and working with Expedia and hotel as check in and checkout was done timely. Lunch buffet was closed for season but other restaurants were open, which are costly but the accessibility of the park from this location is convenient. High end hotel but worth staying and worth the money if you want to avoid hassle of traveling back and forth if you couldn’t cover all the spots in one day.

This place was HOTTT. Arrived at night, and it was still baking hot. Outside of that, it has all the things you would need in a hotel/resor,t and it was nice how they had a natural spring-fed swimming pool and a museum. Would definitely stay there again if back in Death Valley.

Stayed one night in one of the ground floor motel units. The unit was very comfortable although a little dated. Had a bath, fridge, TV, coffee in room, lovely patio with outdoor chairs view of golf course which was beautiful and saw 2 coyotes in the distance which was a highlight. Had a great dinner at restaurant with very friendly service. The general store is well stocked including fresh takeaway coffee. Highly recommend abs will stay again.

Oasis in Death Valley

Lovely resort and a little Oasis when trying to escape the extreme heat. The room was clean and comfortable but was missing a safe which meant I had to carry all valuables with me. Lovely General store and we enjoyed the buffet restaurant for breakfast and dinner. Staff were helpful but no housekeeping whilst we stayed but we could request anything we needed. If you go in July expect extreme heat.
