Canyon Lodge & Cabins - Inside the Park

8/10 Good

"Excellent location in the center of Yellowstone NP, with relatively easy driving distances to all locations. Gas, food, and shopping nearby. The only thing I will mention is that the smoke detectors are way too sensitive; they were set off by using the hair dryer, which is attached to the vanity wall. It goes on forever until staff alerts the Fire Dept. It is a government-owned building, and the FD has to come and reset them. It was 15-20 minutes of constant loud beeping. Even the staff told me that even the steam from showering will set it off. Neighbors were awakened and worried about what was going on. Besides that, our stay was great."

Blue Buffalo Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay near Yellowstone. Lot of amenities provided by the hotel, so you can easily cook your own meal, which is important if you stay in the area (not much great choices for food). The resort also provides lots of stuff that kids can play with (playground, s'more, volleyball etc). They also have bikes and kayak that we didn't get chance to try. Nice location, quite and safe, very family friendly. I recommend it for families if they are on a trip to Yellowstone area."

Ridgeline Hotel at Yellowstone, an Ascend Collection Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The view is unbelievable the staff warm and welcoming after long days of travel and the free laundry plus surprise room amenities, all thoughtful. Put it this way in the middle of so much beauty from the national parks and nature you were close to you still hate to leave the hotel. That’s how great it is."
