Top Hill City Hotel Reviews

Comfort Inn & Suites Near Mt. Rushmore

8/10 Good

"My only wish is that my room would have had a black out curtain in my room. I prefer a dark room, and there was a street light outside the building and it streamed into my room. Otherwise my stay was perfect. Thank you"

Foothills Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed for 4 days and it was awesome. This place should be a 5 star hotel compared to other hotels that are 5 star. The amazing staff were very friendly, the pool is not luxury with slides but it was a perfect fit for my kids. The rooms are very spacious, not luxury but they were great. Breakfast is a normal one, not continental but served the basics. I will stay here again because the price for the stay was perfect. Rooms are very cleaned"

Rushmore Express Keystone

8/10 Good

"The room was comfortable, and everything worked as it should. You need an extension cord to use the coffee maker. You had to be a short person or be able to get down on your knees to use the refrigerator because it sat on the floor. One parking spot per room? They had vacancies but no parking; something wasn't right. Overall, not a bad place."

Travelodge by Wyndham Rapid City/Black Hills

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay! The amenities were great, the bed was very comfortable, and the hotel was very clean. The staff were very helpful and welcoming. The location was also very convenient, close to Walmart, a gas station, and many restaurants. A special thank you to Larissa, who did a great job making sure we were comfortable during our stay. She checked in with us to make sure everything was okay and asked if we needed anything. We had no issues with our room at all. We had a bathtub which is amazing! Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely stay here again! Highly recommended!"
