The staff was excellent during our stay and helped everything that we needed. They even give a binocular and walking stick in each room. Also provided Smores kit to each kid and we had 7 in our group. This hotel was one of the best services we received in my travel history. They even have a game room but we all enjoyed a lot in the evening.

The property was definitely close to yellowstone. Getting in and out of the park was very easy and convenient. The hotel itself is definitely outdated. The bed was comfortable and clean, but that was about it. There is a gameroom on the upper floor and a public space right above our room so it sounded like someone was running up and down the halls until late in the night. The hotel is also not the same as in the photos. There are some on the riverside but the girl told me those were different rooms and I had to specify that room. Also, our room was close to the fire pit in the front and they said it closed down at 11pm but we heard people out there later then that. We heard car doors slamming early in the morning as well as people talking
Outside our door as early as 5am. The hotel food was OK but not great. There really is not a whole lot to do in Gardiner besides the park. The one good restaurant was the wonderland café but it was very hard to get in there as everyone was trying to get in. My parents also had a room, but theirs was by the laundry and hot tub, young kids were in the hot tub and the shower in their room was the smallest shower I have ever seen, they could fit in there but for the most part didn't want to. The rooms could really use to be updated. I would definitely find another place to stay if you are planning to go to yellowstone.

Room was clean and comfortable. Pool and hot tub were nice after a long day at the park. Lots of restraints and stores nearby. Hotel a little outdated but still comfortable. Sitting area out front was nice at night. Location was amazing right near Yellowstone Park entrance and Mammoth Springs. Very convenient, we spent 2 days and saw so much of the park. Drove about 1 to 1.5 hours a days and saw most areas were wanted to. 2 days were perfect. Also got to see wildlife right on property which was a treat. Pricey but all hotels in area are and paying for location.

I will not stay here again & will not recommend. The hotel is a dump. Our room wasn’t ready at check in. Once we got into the room, there was a smell and musty feeling & the air conditioning window unit didn’t work. Room was so damp the beds felt wet. Maintenance replaced window unit in a timely manner. Bathroom was filthy. Blood on toilet seat lid, hair from past guests covered the floor, stains on chair cushions, shower barely put out water and when it did, it was an intermittent jet stream. The bathroom door did not close and the main door to the room didn’t close.
We were glad to only stay one night. The town was a dump also. Most restaurants were closed. Very run down.

Main concern is privacy, the room has very weird structure, so anytime you open the door everything inside the room is quite visible from outside. Open window, and everyone can peep throw the window from outside. Very tiny room with no cabinets or storage, so you have to leave your clothes here and there, over the tables, chairs, etc. Location is good though, only 5 minutes from north entrance of yellowstone NP.

Overall our stay at Ridgeline was positive. There were a few things that could have been better. Check in was 4pm. We got to the property early and knew it would be a stretch for the room to be ready. We were told to come back at 3pm which was completely fine. At 3pm, the room still wasn't ready and again, we were okay with that knowing it was still an hour until the official check in time. We were able to sit and enjoy the scenery in their outdoor fit pit area. I kept checking back in to see if the room was ready and we weren't able to get in until 4:30pm. It would have been nice if they could have asked the cleaning staff to tend to our room knowing we were there and ready to check in. Upon entering our riverfront room there were a dozen flies in the window. My husband took care of them. We also noticed many moths/gnats in the room...later that night after it rained there were thousands of gnats on the outside walkway. I'm not complaining knowing that the bugs come with the riverfront view - just awareness for others that might be looking to book the riverfront! We loved the view and my husband spent quite some time looking for animals on the hillside. My kids, 17 and 13, loved the s'more packet in the evening and my son took a spin around the parking lot with the bicycles on property. Overall the stay was very nice!

Very nice to have a room that overlooked the Yellowstone River and be able to open the window and hear the river going by. Very well located for direct access to Yellowstone for early morning visits. If your goal is to see animals it's best to be positioned in Gardiner as this is your closest entry to the park to be able to get into the two valleys that offer the greatest animal viewing in the park. Best to travel with your own picnic lunches so you can see more of the park and enjoy your food along the way.

Great location with walk ability to town and close to Yellowstone entrance. We loved the river views from our room. We used the bikes to cruise for breakfast. The kids loved the game room, pool, and hot tub. Lots of nice little touches like coffee/hot chocolate bar, free, smores kits at night, and little porch areas to watch the sunset. Several staff were super welcoming are helpful with recommendations (Rayne and Lanette?) while others were easily overwhelmed.

Room was just fine. Clean and plenty of room for me and my 2 kids. River views were amazing to wake up to; watching rafters throughout the day with mountain backdrop.

Fire pit with s'mores, pool & hot tub were great perks. 2 min drive to the Roosevelt Arch and all of the Gardiner, MT giftshops and dining options.

Highly recommend.

Hotel was in a great location. Minutes from town. Bed was comfortable in room, but my only complaint was the bathroom. The room advertised on Expedia noted “Accessible” room but did not describe bathroom in great detail or show picture of shower area, only the sink area. The bathroom was very large (plenty of room) for wheelchair access but the room had a tiny shower in the corner with a built in seated bench molded to the shower wall. This left about 2 feet of clearance from shower wall to bench for a person to take a shower standing up. I would recommend the hotel either update pictures of the bathroom so customers know what type of room they are booking or remodel the bathroom (extend shower) to accommodate occupants with or without disabilities. We were going to be in the area for an entire week, so I made the decision after a few days after staying in the room to book somewhere else.

We booked a Standard Room and had to schlep our suitcases up the stairs, had no view, backed up to the cabin pkg lot and the cabins looked right into our room. Then, given the icky smell in our room we had to have our window open making that a little awkward. Overall for the price, I was very disappointed.

Extra added bonuses of having a deer and bunnies just in front of our porch each night. The extra added touch of interesting books and games also were a nice touch. I would recommend the cabins to anyone. A little pricey but worth it!

One of the best hotels we stayed at on our Montana trip this year, the hotel is older but kept up nicely. Beautiful views of the yellowstone right from our room, and one of the best 5am views I've ever seen in my life, we forgot to close the curtains! Very quaint fireplace areas on the side of our room and right outside the main lobby.

We found out when arrives that we had been placed in cabins instead of the historic hotel. It was very cold, rainy. Had to walk to another building to get ice. Parking for cabin was good ways from hotel. Had dinner reservations but still had to wait 30 minutes. Lovely dining room. My scallops were delicious but husbands ribeye hard to eat for gristle. The floor of our cabin room was gritty . One end of cabin hot, other side cold. Disappointed overall. Had to walk in rain to and from dinner , parking lot was full.

The view is unbelievable the staff warm and welcoming after long days of travel and the free laundry plus surprise room amenities, all thoughtful. Put it this way in the middle of so much beauty from the national parks and nature you were close to you still hate to leave the hotel. That’s how great it is.

This was a wonderful stay. The location is right on the river and has an amazing view. They even give you complementary Binoculars to enjoy it with. Fire Pits burning all day to toast marshmallows, indoor pool and nice hot and clean Jacuzzi. Rooms were a good size and staff was extremely nice. I certainly recommend Ridgeline.

Overall hotel conditions were second rate at best. Facilities are in serious need of an upgrade in main building.

Avoid downstairs rooms that are equivalent to staying in a basement.

Staff is friendly and helpful.
Location is very close to Yellowstone north gate.

Overpriced. Stuff didn’t work. Disappointing to say the least. I booked this hotel for my family looking for a place to unwind after a long, long day driving and sightseeing in Yellowstone and after camping the previous night. The photos on the website look great. The lobby and patio have obviously been redone.
However:
AC was faulty. After waking up at 11pm sweating I could not get the AC to function more than a minute or two no matter what I did.
The hairdryer did not work.
The floor was squeaky and woke my wife in the middle of the night during my AC difficulties.
The pool is rusty. Yes, rusty. It has a metal ring around the rim.
The rooms look and feel unchanged since the 1970s which is probably when the hotel first opened.
Upon check out I told the front desk about the faulty and AC and hairdryer and was told that “maintenance would be informed” of the issue and that was that.
Gardiner seems like a wonderful town to visit with or without Yellowstone. But staying at Ridgeline Hotel was a huge regret and I felt like I threw away $330 on a poor night of sleep.

The hotel is located right on the Yellowstone River! I could hear the raging waters from my window at night. I liked the easy access to bikes and used this to bike downtown about 1 mile away in the morning. The bed was super comfortable and the coffee maker and coffee in the room good. The only complaint is the corners in the bathroom were a little dirty. The staff was friendly and helpful. I would stay here again.

The hotel gave us a clean safe place to stay! They had extra amenities like bikes, walking sticks and binoculars for your use for free and the laundry was free which was convenient. The rooms could use a little more insulation, I was next to the laundry room and on the ground floor and heard every car door, every load of laundry and the family with small kids above me. Other than that, a great location just outside the north entrance to Yellowstone and a cute little small town with lots of shops to explore!

This hotel was a clean nice place to stay close to Yellowstone. In my opinion it was incredibly overpriced (we paid 368) . While I do understand you are paying to be close to the park - there is no continental breakfast and the parking lot is very small (trucks and larger suvs were difficult to park) and it is very outdated. You can hear every bit of noise from other rooms and the parking lot. Every door that closes - every conversation. The cleaning staff went around at 800 and started knocking on doors to see who had left their rooms so it could be cleaned for the next guest. The front desk employees were very nice and even offered to carry our luggage up to our room.

Such potential, but falls FAR short. We had such high hopes for this place, and if you don't look too closely, the place is perfect. We stayed in one of the cabins and it's a great location, with a great view, and great amenities (free s'mores, fire pits, cornhole, pool, hot tub, friendly staff, etc). Once you take a little closer look, however, it gets worse and worse re: cleanliness and obvious cut corners. When we first got to the cabin, there was an empty beer bottle out front; we didn't think too much of that. Then inside, the carpet felt like it had never been cleaned (which probably is the case), there was dust and bits of trash behind the doors, the bathroom floor was filthy (a towel turned brown when I wiped the floor after it got wet), there was red sticky stuff on the kitchen counter, spilled coffee grounds on the shelves, an empty water bottle on the roof, and pink mold in the shower. The coffee carafe was cracked (provided replacement was also cracked), the mini-fridge was broken and had to be replaced, blinds missing adjustment wand, and the bedside light and outlet didn't work. It's as if the \"cleaning\" was just wiping down a surface or two with a dry paper towel, and nothing was ever inspected to ensure it worked. It's also falsely advertised as having blackout shades and refrigerator (which implies full-size); as mentioned, it was a mini fridge and the curtains were NOT blackout. The manager was never available and never called me as I was told.

Hotel staff is very nice and helpful. Hotel provides free s’mores kits to use in their outdoor fire pit.

Swimming pool is indoors and nice and clean. Hot tub is outdoors and also nice.

Laundry machines were available in one of the other buildings, was free but only available between 8 AM and 8 PM.

Our room had a nice mountain and River view and was close to all the restaurants in the town. Could walk a quarter of a mile to them or ride a free bicycle provided by the hotel.

Room itself was OK, carpet was kind of old and bathroom was kind of small but overall clean and neat.

It is in a good location and the restaurant connected to it was very good also. It was perfect for part of our Yellowstone trip.

We stayed in one of the Mountain View cabins which were very nice although a bit expensive. It was our only option at the time of booking. A regular room that costs less would have been fine. The main reason I give it 3 stars is the area we were staying in had lots of piles of dog poop on the grass and smeared on the sidewalk both days of our stay. It made walking to our cabin challenging. Also, don’t even attempt to check in earlier than the 4:00 time…it won’t happen. They also do not answer their main desk phone no matter how busy they are. Our room was clean and quiet which was very nice. The restaurant at the hotel had a nice dinner but the breakfast buffet was cold. I would order from the limited breakfast menu if I stay there again. The hotel is very close to the North entrance of Yellowstone Park which was very handy.

Cedar Shannon is a terrible manager. The toilet in our room wasn't flushing or working, we called maintenance, they said they fixed it but it still wouldn't flush when we returned to the hotel. Dead bugs in the room, the bar casino doesn't post anywhere in plain sight that tickets need to be cashed in within 48 hours, they were closed when I went to cash them in, then when I went back and they were open, they told me the tickets are void and nothing they can do. They absolutely could, Cedar Shannon just didn't want to do it, and refused with a grimy smirk on his face. He should NOT be in the hospitality business. It really soured our trip. We had to go to restaurants or the hotel across the street to use the bathroom since our toilet wouldn't flush.

They have signs asking customers to help conserve water..well their toilet that was permanently flushing and flooding our entire stay isn't helping them with that. Do not stay here.

Stayed there for one night on June 17. First the pros: The location is great since the property is riverside. Our room 414 had a river view which was really nice. The room had a microwave, refrigerator and coffee maker.
The lobby is staffed 24/7. There is a fire pit in front of the lobby which seemed inviting but was constantly occupied by a family group the entire evening so we didn’t get a chance to use it.
Now the cons: The rooms are dated and poorly lit. The pillows were lumpy. Bathroom is small and not well maintained. There was mildew on the shower curtain and pink bacterial ring around bathtub drain. No complimentary breakfast is another negative especially when charging $340 per night for a property which can be best characterized as a motel.

The front desk lady that checked us in was so nice! Rooms were good enough to sleep in while visiting Yellowstone. The bathroom sink is like three inches above my knees, very low which wasn’t enjoyable. AC was very loud. Door to the room didn’t have any weather stripping so you can hear noise and see light coming in from outside. Room could use some paint. Great views of the river though!

The hotel is within walking distance of the North Gate to Yellowstone Park. So you are ahead of the queues that form from around 9am onwards. The room we had was up a small flight of stairs but it overlooked the yellowstone river and the mountains beyond. We often saw deer on the banks of the river and in the hotel grounds. There were tea and coffee available in the room and binoculars you could lend too. Our room had 2 easy chairs and a microwave. Although no cutlery to eat any food you may buy to heat up! There was no breakfast included but there was a restaurant on site where you could buy breakfast although a bit pricey to use everyday. The restaurant also was open for evening meals although the menu was limited to I think 5 dishes but only 2 were available when we tried and both were priced around $55 each. You could get bar food next door but this was also limited when we stayed. There are not many places to dine in this area. A lot were closed or closed down but there is a good shop within walking distance and many food outlets a 20 min walk away near the North Gate entrance.
The only negative in our room was the dirty windows! But as we overhung the river I presume they have to get a team in to clean them by hanging down from the roof?
