Neat hotel, so-so food, service lacking

Hotel is really neat as a historic landmark but price of everything and level of service drag down the experience. The food is average at best and most of the people there are seasonal workers that don’t really care. The men’s room was out of soap and shampoo for two days in a row and one of the showers had an empty beer sitting in it the entire time we were there. When I mentioned it to the front desk all I got was a blank stare and “that’s housekeeping, I work the front desk”.
You are probably better off staying outside the park and just spending the day driving in and hitting the highlights.
Awesome place to stay

What an amazing place to stay, so much character, stunning inside, dinner and breakfast were in an awesome room. We stayed as part of our tour so if you have the chance do yourself a favour and stay here. Watching the geysers from the balcony is outstanding.

Here’s the thing… you save a ton of drive time by staying in the park which makes it worth it. But the hotel is not just old, it’s dirty. There was dust everywhere, making it highly questionable how well and how often the room was cleaned. Staff at checkin was friendly and restaurant is average. It’s all about the location, that’s what you are paying for. It gave me the impression that the company operating the hotel is cutting corners.

Iconic historical hotel but needs to be renovated. Pricy for what you get. The shower temperature couldn’t stay constant and vacillated between hot and cold. We also found a mouse in our room. Maintenance came and put in a mouse trap. They don’t do housekeeping for two nights stay so food attracts the mice. Rooms are small. Location could not be more convenient for touring the geyser areas.
Historic and wonderful

We enjoyed our stay at the Old Faithful Inn. We absolutely loved staying in the old, historic building (even without private bathrooms). We walked miles and miles looking at thermal features. There was live music in the lobby. If we ever come to Yellowstone again, we will stay at the Old Faithful Inn.
