While this property is very old the family owners have done a very good job keeping it clean, updated, and quiet. Our parking was just outside our room. WI-FI was fast and easy to connect our devices to. The area is very walkable with lots of shopping and dining options. The property also has a connected restaurant serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It’s location provides easy access to Yellowstone’s west entrance.

The Madison Historical Hotel is a good value considering that accommodations in this area are generally expensive. I found the location, service, and room to be fair or even a good deal. Here are some details that may help those who want to consider every aspect before booking: • Noise: Sounds from outside carry easily. Since the parking lot is right in front, I could clearly hear cars and motorcycles, and even conversations if people were talking near the entrance. This was stressful in the morning. However, traffic from the road was not an issue due to the distance. • Front door lock: The door was very difficult to open. While this may indicate stronger security, it required using one hand to turn the key, another to handle the doorknob, and also pushing the door with my body. Returning with luggage made this inconvenient. • Air conditioning: The AC could not be turned off. Even after switching it off, it would restart automatically and cool the room again. I had to raise the temperature settings to reduce the cold, but the system sometimes reset itself and started cooling again, which was frustrating. • Shower: The shower head allowed adjustment of spray type and strength, but the overall water pressure was a little weak, which may be inconvenient for guests who prefer strong water flow. Despite these points, I had a very comfortable stay overall, and I still give this hotel the highest rating. Thank you very much for the hospitality.

Super helpful reception staff

Both reception staff were very helpful. Made the most of our free USD10 vouchers for Timberline cafe next door. Best of all we received free tickets for the rodeo down the road which were planning to attend anyway - and enjoyed the show :-)

Let me first say, this is a below average motel, except for it's location. The rooms are small, lacks modern amenities, there's no breakfast, no way it justifies the $300+ per night charge. I've had better experiences in places that charge a third of this one. The person at the front desk, let himself into the room when I am out, that sounded very creepy and unsafe. Never would I stay at this place again.

Okay for Yellowstoy

Easy check in and had a room out the back in the motel park. Room fairly small and had a musty smell carpet could do with cleaning or even replacing. Clean bedroom apart from the carpet and bed okay. Water mark on ceiling. Walls a little thin can hear snoring from next door. Coffee, ice and a small breakfast area. Yellowstone is expensive and so is this place.

The motel is a little old, and water pressure is not great, but overall our stay was pleasant. We were happy to have a refrigerator in our room. Local restaurants are $$ so saving leftovers and ability to store cold cuts was a plus. Coffee was good, staff was super friendly and location to everything, including the park, was excellent. We were nervous when we first pulled up, but it was great. Be aware, I think some rooms share a bathroom, so make sure to read all the details. The motel room had bathrooms.
