Absolutely would choose and recommend. I travel a lot for work and stay at chain places, and of course this is not that. Hotel is slightly dated, but all outweighed by the moderately priced amenities (15/night) including free laundry use which came in handy at tail end of trip, and a fun game room my kids spent time in. Proximity to Yellowstone gate is a plus- cute town, helpful staff (if not slightly political in their commentary, but maybe to be expected in Montana?). We didn’t use the hot tub, so can’t comment. S’mores kits were available. I could swear the family next to us got one, gratis, and we did not with our kids. Small detail but overall comfort and service were great.
River view was worth the nominal price upgrade.

The property is in good condition. The outdoor fireplace is a really nice touch, along with s'more kits, free for the asking. Nice cold delicious water from the bottle filling station.. We would have liked to have had our room cleaned while we were there but had our do not disturb sign on for too long. It seems the cleaners want to clean your room at about or before 9:00 a.m., which is when I think many people are getting ready for their day's travels. I always look for a hotel with pool and or hot tub when I'm booking, and this one had both, but we didn't use either one! We had beautiful weather for our trip and spent most days going into Yellowstone Park. Our room was on the second floor, but there is no elevator. Stairs in the hallways are carpeted.

The hotel is nice, the pool and game room area are nice. I somehow did not see that it is considered a “resort” and you are charged an additional $15 per day that you stay. They do offer binoculars and a walking stick and fire pits through out the property. The thing that really upset me was we showed up early. We had a sick kid and was going to see if we could get a room so he could sleep. The bearded man at the counter did not welcome us or anything. He immediately barked, “if you are trying to check in early we can’t accommodate that”. He was rude and had no customer service skills. The next morning when I went down for coffee I overheard the cleaning lady asking which rooms she could get started in, which confirms for me that the bearded man just didn’t want to mess with us. Don’t tell me there wasn’t a single room ready to go. There was another lady at the counter that was overly loud and obnoxious. The hotel itself is nice but I will not stay here again because of how we were treated.

We arrived 30 minutes before check-in and our room wasn't ready so we came back in a half hour. In that time they had checked someone else into our room. We had booked a king with a mountain view and ended up in a queen with a view of a concrete wall.

This was our favorite hotel out of the 5 we stayed in, during our Yellowstone family vacation, although the most expensive, it was definitely worth it. You pay a $30 per night per room amenity fee which covers nightly smores, bike rentals, free laundry, hot tub/indoor pool, and a game room. The staff was very friendly and helpful, rooms very clean. We had a room facing the Yellowstone River which had a fabulous view of the park. The elk came right through the property one night. We had our 87 yo dad with us, and I neglected to request a ground level room since there are no elevators and they accommodated a room change. no breakfast but there are plenty of restaurants within walking distance.

I have stayed at Ridgeline many times. I like the mountain view and the staff is always great. The curtain rod in my room (207) was broken and I was unable to completly close the inner drapes. The outer drapes would not close at all. It would have been a major privacy issue if I didn't have a room on the 2nd floor. Also, the non stick pads in the bathtub are coming up. No elevator made it hard to get my luggage up the stairs. I usually travel alone and I'm not a young person, so not having a elevator is difficult. I definitely prefer a hotel with an elevator and that may influence my future decision of whether to stay at Ridgeline again. Parking lot is large but fills up fast. I have a large SUV and whoever parked in the middle of the lot parked too close to my vehicle, which made it VERY hard to back out. The property location is great and its a good place to stay, but it is starting to look a little ragged and definitely needs some upgrades or repairs.

This hotel had plenty of amenities for families - bikes, pool, hot tub, s'mores, etc. We didn't take advantage of much of them - but it was a quiet and comfortable place to stay near to the North entrance of Yellowstone. Would happily stay again, if we are fortunate enough to return to this area.
