This is a nice lodge with comfortable accommodations. For the rooms, I can recommend. The problems arise with marginal food service and laundry facilities that barely work - especially the driers. The front desk got an earful from multiple guests the night I was using the facilities. I’m guessing the laundry falls to an outside concessionaire who isn’t paying attention. Whatever the case, for what it costs to stay here, service should be better.

This was the best of our 3 hotels inside the park. We had a 2 queen room at ground floor of the main building. Rooms are spacious and clean. Ok it is expensive but you are in the center of the park. Canyon Village with restaurants, shops and visitor center at walking distance. The hotel has a bar with hot and cold drinks and food. Efficient staff at front desk

Stayed two nights in one of the rooms in the newer lodge while visiting Yellowstone. We had stayed the previous two nights in Grant Village. The new lodge was much better than the Grant Village although at the same cost. Check in was quick and easy but I could see at other times there was a long line. Room was new and well appointed and the bathroom was great. They provide a fan which is very helpful for air and white noise. Our lodge was closer to the visitor center, restaurant area, general store but it was still a 10 minute walk. We loved the cafeteria style place to eat as it was very convenient and fast. As with all lodging in the park, this one was very expensive and the cost was inconsistent with the service and amenities but it is all about the location.

My son and I stayed here in mid-August for 4 nights. I booked our trip at the last-minute (3 weeks before) so room choices were limited. I opted for the cheapest room available, which is an ADA room in the older lodge (Dunraven). even though we didn't have a disability. Our room wasn't ready when we checked in a little after 4pm, so that was a bit annoying. We walked over to the main Canyon Village for the Visitors Center to gather information. It's quite a nice walk and takes 5-10 minutes. On our first evening we saw a mule deer mama and her 2 fawns just next to the path. Our room is a double bed + twin bed, which is a bit unusual (possibly to accommodate for wheelchair). It is also the first one by the entrance and the ice machine, though each lodge has multiple entrances and turns out most people were using another entrance. We looked out to the parking lot. I can't complain because it's the cheapest option. Even though Dunraven is the oldest lodge, it is still pretty nice, everything is serviceable. There is a mini-fridge; wifi is so-so, the network drops frequently and you have to reconnect all the time. But considering many other lodges don't even have wifi at all, I can't complain. The ADA bathroom is a bit of a pain, as there is no physical barrier between the shower area and the rest of the bathroom. After each shower, majority of the bathroom floor is wet. When we were there the 3rd week of August, it wasn't too hot. Daytime highs were high 70s. Canyon Village is at a higher elevation so it is cooler than other locations. Our room cooled off enough in the evening with windows open for a few hours, and then we would close them before bed to block off noise from the parking lot / lodge entrance. Overall, I would stay here again because of its central location to visit Yellowstone, affordability, and wifi availability. Next time I may consider the cabins instead because they are more quiet, however, cabins don't have wifi so that might be a dealbreaker for me. I also like the proximity to Canyon Village for visitors center and the various eateries, and shops. We ate there all 4 nights and tried each one. They were all okay but none serve any real vegetables of any sort. After 4 nights, we moved to Old Faithful Inn for our final night as we wanted to be closer to that area for sightseeing.

Finally a reasonable in-park hotel. Rooms modern and clean. Hot water responsive. Good location. Staff friendly. Good WiFi. Why can’t Xantera replicate this in other areas? Only complaints are that the food / gift shop are a long walk from some rooms. And finishings in the room are cheap and always showing wear.
