We enjoyed our stay! Great location- grocery store and park right next door and easy walk to Main Street proper. The hotel was very stylish and excellently maintained, like brand-new. The BEST part was the friendly dogs who greeted guests in the lobby! The only downers were no table in room if you wanted to work on laptop and no complimentary coffee or breakfast in the lobby.

A beautifully renovated hotel with a nice Boutique feel! Right on Main Street in Bozeman… quick Lyft rides to all shops and restaurants. Or use the free bikes for a 1/2 mile ride to all the fun spots! Cozy, quiet rooms. Plenty of space to lounge in lobby or outside around the fire pit! Great for 1 night getaway or stay a week if you’re in town for an event or skiing, hunting!
Loved the free bikes for use!
Enjoy the fire pit

A wonderful experience...room was extremely clean and comfortable, and our stay was very quiet. Staff is so friendly and the ambiance of the lobby, stairwells, and rooms was a rustic western. Beautiful place that we would definitely choose again if we get back to Bozeman in the future!

The remodel of this hotel is very well done. I like the Montana feel and charm. The only complaint is the parking fee. Most people coming into Bozeman are going to need to park. It seemed a bit over the top.

We had to carry our suitcases upstairs to 2nd floor. No free coffee in the lobby. Decor was beautiful but why pay for parking when you have plenty of space in your parking lot?

My boyfriend and I absolutely loved this hotel! The staff was incredible, the accommodations were clean & adorably decorated, and the owner’s lab was the cherry on top. This hotel has the perfect, local & cozy feel, and it’s easily walkable to all the best spots downtown. I would highly recommend staying here & look forward to coming back.
