Top Black Elk Peak Hotel Reviews

AmericInn by Wyndham Hill City Mt Rushmore

10/10 Excellent

"My family loved this hotel! It was older, but it was very nostalgic and a very well kept property. The breakfast was delicious, the staff was very friendly and very helpful. The room was very clean. We will definitely be staying here again when we visit Mount Rushmore!"

Rushmore Express Keystone

8/10 Good

"I might be generous with my rating as a four, but partly because the cost was very reasinable in a very convenient location. The staff were also friendly and helpful. However, the carpet badly needs either replaced or professionally cleaned. Also, the shower head is too low and the water pressure is quite low. We also had to kill three wasps in our room, one after my wife was stung. The breakfast was okay."

Roosevelt Inn Mount Rushmore

8/10 Good

"The breakfast was delicious the bed was a bit hard. I would suggest new carpet in the room or hardwood floors. The staff was wonderful."

Quality Inn Keystone near Mount Rushmore

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was incredibly helpful and so nice! Some kids started playing music and were super loud at the pool right at 10 p.m. when it was supposed to close. Front desk took care of it immediately. We were so grateful!! Breakfast was wonderful- the staff all smiled and were very helpful and gracious."

EverSpring Inn & Suites

8/10 Good

"Staff were helpful and friendly."

Freedom Ridge Cabins

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay for a Family of 4!"

Lodge at Palmer Gulch

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great place and would be fun to be there in the summer. We went early October, so most amenities were not available. Nonetheless, we thought it was wonderful."

Timber Haven Cabins

10/10 Excellent

"Cabin was perfect for our fall get away. Cabin had everything we needed. Grill, stove and microwave all available plus dishes and silverware."

Black Hills Motel at Quails Crossing

8/10 Good

"My main problem was with the hotels. Com website not describing the rooms correctly. What is a room vs a bedroom? We arrived to find we had gotten a room that was like a motel and not a bedroom that was separate from the kitchenette, etc. we were very thankful that the owner worked with us and helped us get a cabin instead where we did have a separate bedroom vs 1 large room only. The website needs to be specific about the difference and what each room really is. We were thankful that he worked with us and the entire place was not filled up. We had an enjoyable stay thanks to the work the owner did for us."
