Top Black Elk Peak Hotel Reviews

Lodge at Palmer Gulch

10/10 Excellent

"Convenient to the many sites and activities in the Black Hills! Lovely lodge. Breakfast is minimal, bagel, cereal, yogurt, fruit."

Rushmore Express Keystone

8/10 Good

"Spacious room"

Roosevelt Inn Mount Rushmore

8/10 Good

"Very nice room. Great breakfast. The front desk manager Renee was very helpful. Room was really nice. Only complaint was the bed was way too soft. They need new mattress."

Ramada by Wyndham Keystone Near Mt Rushmore

8/10 Good

"Location and staff are amazing! The building seems a bit worn- this isn't a criticism, but, an opportunity to enhance things for future guests. At random times, our room fridge would make a noise- light bang?- which was frustrating at 5 in the morning. (We thought somebody knocked on the door.) We also heard what seemed like clinking from the plumbing in the room above. (We noticed it after they flushed- which we could also hear. So, every 5 seconds, a clink, clink, clink for a few minutes.) But, the staff was super friendly and helpful, so wanted to give credit where credit was due."

Powder House Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"We rented one of the cabins and it was great! We had our pups with us and they enjoyed it as much as us!The surrounding area makes you feel as though you are alone but there are several cabins near by. We saw a few deer on the hill behind us when we woke up in the morning! The staff were friendly and accommodating! We were so close to Mount Rushmore we were able to visit during the day and go back for the night show. The Restaurant staff were great! and the food was a burst of flavor in my mouth!! we tried the Kabobs with so good!!"

Best Western Golden Spike Inn & Suites

8/10 Good

"Indoor pool was cold, otherwise great stay!"

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."

EverSpring Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, friendly staff, warm cookies on arrival, breakfast included was yummy too! Only thing we had a problem with was no elevator? I know it’s on 2 floors but we were on the 2nd floor and our luggage was very heavy to have to carry up a flight of stairs. Maybe not a problem for younger folk or light travelers but it was hard for us."

Baymont by Wyndham Keystone Near Mt. Rushmore

8/10 Good

"Loved the balcony view of all the trees! Weather was a wonderful 60 degrees. Really close to the Mount Rushmore. Would stay there again."
