Accommodations are basic but the rooms are clean and comfortable and the staff was very friendly. Good coffee but limited breakfast options. A convenient place to stay outside of West Yellowstone without being in the middle of town. Be on the lookout for moose crossing the highway!

We stayed at Mountain Vista Hotel in West Yellowstone and found it to be a great spot for our trip. The hotel is conveniently located about 10 minutes outside of town, making it easy to access Yellowstone Park. Everything was clean, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. The rooms and bathrooms were a bit on the small side, but since we spent most of our time exploring the park, it was perfectly fine for a place to sleep. The only challenge was that the hotel is a little hard to spot from the road, especially after dark, so keep an eye out for the turn. Overall, a good, simple stay for park visitors.

We had a wonderful stay here. The room and property were clean. We didn't have time to use them but the patio and front lounge/game room looked great. And the breakfast selection was great and offered more than i thought there would be.

Nice people. Room was clean. Good working air and heat. Big tv.Room was Very small. Armoire rattled every time you walked by! Breakfast was limited and mostly cold food. No restaurant. You must have a car since its outer town. tiny convenience store next door with few options. But overpriced for what you got.*outer door was NEVER LOCKED! Did NOT like that since we were on the end room. A bit noisy as well, right there.
