Even though we were unable to stay there as it was sold out, we were encouraged to check out the lobby. The view was amazing and they had a great gift shop. If you do want to stay, it's booked months/years in advance and not budget friendly.

I had been told ahead of time to set my expectations very low for this hotel and to not stay for more than one night. The main lobby area is a beautiful historic building. However, this is a hotel, charging a ton of money for its rooms, and the rooms are beyond horrible. The pillows are the worst ever, smaller in size than a normal pillow and they had practically no fluff in them to hold my head up. The bathrooms were not super clean, only moderately clean. Baseboards and doors have not been wiped down. There was some mildew in the shower. The carpet and furnishings were disgustingly old. Why can't this place be renovated?!! They are sure charing enough money for the rooms! My family was so disappointed. This is our national park! Can't we do better than this for our international visitors? Additionally, the dining room food was deplorable. It's really hard to make such bad food. They need to get their act together if they want to charge $30-45 per entree. The food was not worth the price. Eat a sandwich from the General Store or cafeteria and save your money! My husband got sick from the breakfast buffet food. Also, check in is poorly handled and disorganized and they make you check in quite late. We had two rooms and even though I booked 8 months in advance, my family was put in 2 totally different areas of the hotel. We had a long wait to get our room and they barely gave it to us by the designated check in time.

Seriously consider spending you money elsewhere. Service was ok and the hostess, for the restraunt, had a superiority complex. Additionally, the hostess was very rude; especially considering how much money I had already spent there. I wish I would’ve considered other options.

Let me say that it was very convenient staying at the inn. It’s a great staging point for your first night in the park. You’re close to many features in the area that you can walk to from your room. You also get MANY opportunities to see Old Faithful in all its glory. We stayed on the bottom, bottom floor on what I think was the north side of the inn. It was a hike down several small flights of stairs to get there. Accommodations were ok but modest. We knew going in there would be no internet or TV. We’d stay again but don’t expect much in the way of comforts in your room.

We stayed two nights in the Old House. We used shared bathrooms that were very nice and clean (none of my kids minded walking down the hall to use the bathroom). Rooms included bath robes to use which was also fun. The inn is lovely with lots of character, and we especially enjoyed the live music in the evenings (we sat at a table outside our room and played cards with the kids). This was definitely our favorite lodging in the park and amazingly enough, it was also our lowest cost accommodations.
