About Lake Yellowstone Hotel

Step back in time and experience the grandeur of Yellowstone's golden age at Lake Yellowstone Hotel and Cabins, the oldest continuously operating hotel in the park and a registered historic landmark. This elegant getaway, adorned in a charming 1920s facade and boasting 296 guest rooms, offers a unique blend of classic ambiance and modern comfort.


Imagine gazing out your picturesque window at the shimmering expanse of Yellowstone Lake, its turquoise waters lapping gently at the shore.  Choose from comfortable rooms in the main lodge or a private cabin, each thoughtfully furnished to evoke a sense of nostalgia.  Unwind in the grand lobby, its warm golden hues echoing the park's namesake, and perhaps enjoy a delightful melody from the nightly piano or chamber music performances in the Sun Room.

Lake Yellowstone Hotel caters to a variety of travelers.  Indulge in a delicious meal at the on-site restaurant (open seasonally), grab a quick bite at the delicatessen, or unwind with a beverage at the cozy lobby bar.  For a touch of Yellowstone magic, explore the impressive gift shop, brimming with unique treasures unavailable elsewhere in the park.

Please note:  Lake Yellowstone Hotel embraces a relaxed, unplugged philosophy.  While wired internet access is available in guest rooms and the business center, WiFi is not offered.  However, with the breathtaking scenery of Yellowstone National Park just outside your door, you'll likely find yourself captivated by the natural world, not the digital one.

For those seeking a pet-friendly retreat, a limited number of cabins welcome your furry companions.  The hotel is committed to sustainable practices and has been awarded the prestigious Green Seal Lodging Certification.

Book your stay at Lake Yellowstone Hotel and Cabins and embark on a journey through time, where classic elegance meets the timeless beauty of Yellowstone National Park.  Create memories that will last a lifetime amidst the park's unparalleled wonders.
