Central South Dakota 3 Stars Hotels

"Loved being by the river!"

"I wasn't expecting the Ramkota to be so nice. For the price in a small town I was expecting something mildly sketchy that was at best a dry place to sleep. I was actually very impressed. The staff is great. The entire place is clean and updated. The pool area is beautiful and so relaxing. The space is large enough that even with several groups and kids enjoying themselves in the pool it didn't feel crowded. Highly recommend the poolside rooms. They have some really cute affordable room service specials as well. There is a great walking path to the river just across the parking lot. We went on a nature walk at La Framboise island and it was wonderful. There is also a movie theater within walking distance and while it isn't a mega theater with 27 screens it's very affordable, nicely updated, and the staff was very nice. We picked the Ramkota for a convenient stop for our actual destination but found a place that we will be returning to again because it was just so nice and we underestimated the number of things that we could do right there in Pierre.
