"There are many choices of hotels and motels in West Yellowstone of where to stay. We were happy with our choice. Kelly Inn was close to the center of town and within easy walking distance of restaurants and shopping. It was clean and quiet. The staff was friendly. We had trouble finding a parking spot close to our building one night, and had to park in a lot behind another building, but the hotel was full, which is good. We would stay there again if we plan another trip to Yellowstone Park."

"The staff was great. Mel was wonderful and very helpful. She made some cookies just for my wife and I are they ran out. We enjoyed the S'more packets they put out every night and roasting the marshmallows at the fire pit. The only issue i have was when I made the reservation, the advertisement from the hotel said we'd have a free hot breakfast every morning. But when we got there, we found out that free breakfast was only for guests during the busy season (May- August). I also wished they had hot chocolate available like they do coffee and tea. Other than that, things were great. One of the best events we did here was to visit the Grizzly and Wolf Discovery Center. Don't pass up visiting there. It's one block away. It's also a short walk to all the restaurants downtown. The hotel has 4 bicycles for us too."
