Yellowstone Big Rock Inn

Our room and bathroom were a really nice size. Also, the bathroom set up had the shower and toilet together in a room with the sink outside of them. So much easier to get ready with that setup! The room was clean and the front desk clerk was very friendly when we checked in. It could use another lamp/light in the room since it's rather dark. Also, if you leave early (and don't a lot of people do that when they're going in to Yellowstone?) there are no luggage carts available. They lock them in the office and I'm not sure what time the office opens, but we were gone by then. Other than that little hiccup, I'd definitely stay here again. It's very convenient for accessing the north entrance to Yellowstone.

Hotel is adequate and as described on the website. The mattresses are a bit on the soft side. The towels should be updated. It’s very close to the town center and the Yellowstone park. Staff is very friendly. Elks like to come to visit the property and enjoy the grass.

Acceptable, would try an alternative in the future

The cleaning staff had left damp towels and alight was broken. Acceptable, the rate reflects proximity to YellowStone not quality of property.

We stayed overnight one night to be closer to the north side of Yellowstone National park. We were in late and up early to get back to the park. The room was clean, shower was hot, and we slept well. Gardiner was convenient and had several restaurant options minutes from the park entrance. Worked well for us.

Too far to walk to most of the restaurants in Gardiner, but still convenient for visiting the north part of Yellowstone NP and not too pricey for this area. Room was comfotable and clean.
