I was pleasantly surprised with this hotel. The rooms were clean and the staff were helpful even with my 10 PM check in. The bedding fits the location and I felt at home here. The bed was super comfy and for the first time on this trip, I didn’t wake up with a headache or soreness. Everything was super clean, even the shower, which worked awesomely. The door lock was a little hard to latch. No breakfast here but in this sweet little town of Cody, there are plenty of places to go for breakfast and do whatever you need. Cody even has a rodeo in town. The price of the room was reasonably priced at $132 for the night.

This place is great for the price. Small rooms but everything you need. Clean, and staff is wonderful.

From the outside, this place looks really nice and quaint. Up close, it's getting a little long in the tooth. The photos of the rooms look nothing like the room I got. My room was tiny and the shower...even tinier. The first time I spun around in the shower, I hit the shower valve with my back and turned the water to full cold. That was really the only negatives for me. I'm picky about pillows and there just happen to be one that I liked. The room was very clean....so were the towels and bedding. As long as things are clean, I can deal with small.

The rodeo grounds are down the street and you could hear everything that was going on when you were in the parking lot, but you couldn't hear it inside the room. There was a laundry room that was $2.00 a load. This was very convenient.

We stayed at Holiday Lodge, Cody since accommodations neat Yellowstone were too pricey during our travel dates. I had booked through Priceline and received the confirmation email, but when we arrived around 9:45 PM, the front desk told us our reservation had been canceled—definitely gave my husband and me a mini heart attack. Thankfully, they still gave us a room. It’s a decent place if you’re on a budget and don’t mind driving 1.5–2 hours each way to Yellowstone. The building is old, but the room was clean, small, and cozy. It had one of those older AC units, but surprisingly, it worked well and kept the room comfortable. If you’re looking for an affordable stay just for sleeping and showering, this place gets the job done.

The rooms were nice! Good temperature and comfortable. There was a rodeo going on the time we were there, but I wasn't bothered much by it. Nothing really to do there, but the service was really good!

Spent one night here while visiting Yellowstone. It is an old timey hotel, however the rooms were clean and appeared to have been recently updated with carpet and paint. The beds were comfortably. It's about and hour to the East Entrance of Yellowstone and a lot less expensive than anything closer to the Park.
