We spent our 30th anniversary here 15 years ago and had a horrible experience. Before the days of internet reviews. Thought we would give them another shot. So we decided to spend a couple of days at Valentines. When you pay a premium price you expect a better than average experience. Our room was very outdated. Especially the bathroom. I can't remember the last time I had to use a rubber stopper in a bath tub. The jetted tub was old, dirty, stained, and the bottom felt like it was going to crack at anytime. We didn't dare use the jets as they were dirty and stained. There was a used wash cloth between the tub and vanity from the last occupants. There were urine stains on the toilet rim from the last occupants. Housekeeping was terrible. No bathroom floor mat on the second day. The closets were full of old electric heaters, and some other hardware. The pictures on the website are not what we experienced. The fireplace hearth was no more than 18" from the end of our bed. You had to walk sideways to pass through. The continental breakfast was worse than the chain motels we stay in. I could go on. Needless to say we won't be back, or recommend.

We stayed in a Pondside Luxury Room. Great room with very large bathroom and king size bed. Nice fireplace with plenty of wood. Only negative is our room had a door which connected to the room next door. We were able to hear conversations of the folks next door. Fortunately they were not late nighters and it did not interrupt our sleep. We were in the Osprey room, the room to our left, to the left if you are facing the the building, was the last room on the 1st level and it did not have a connecting room door. I would ask for that room next time. Outdoor hot tub was great. We always enjoy the bar here with its great fireplace. The dining room was excellent. Nice breakfast comes with the room.

This hotel was everything we were looking for. It had a cabin like feel with wood burning fireplace and view of a river, walking distance from the rooms patio. The only downside was the firewood they use smells funny. I would stay here again for sure.

Ended up staying here 4 nights which is way longer than I usually stay anywhere, and I usually don't write reviews but because of wedding-related logistics we were in 3 different rooms so I got a good feel for the place. While all rooms were charming there are definitely differences among them. The northernmost, second floor rooms with private balcony and fireplace are the best, though the fireplace use instructions are less than comprehensive. The southern grouping of rooms, all on ground level with nice sliding door and porch, have the outdated bathrooms. other features: -right on the two-lane highway -free, tasty cookies in your room -good complimentary breakfast as far as those things go, passable for vegans but only if you're down with bread and fruit -nice bar and happy hour -wine tasting room that i didn't experience but looked nice -beautiful outdoor lawn adjacent to shallow Gallatin river -minutes from boundary of yellowstone (though far from main park entrance) -hiking trail directly across the river

We stayed in a lodge room with a queen bed and fireplace, it was nice and cozy, with a balcony that led out to the grassy area, where you found the stream running. Even though is right the highway it was very quiet. They have an infinity hot tub that wonderful and close to the rooms. The continental breakfast could be a little more. I have one bad thing to say that the bathrooms are a little outdated and need an upgrade. Overall, a gorgeous place to stay for a week, or weekend..
