Great hotel for families!
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at Riverside Cottages in Gardiner! We visited as a family of four and couldn’t have asked for a better location. It’s truly walkable to everything in town, including the grocery store, rafting companies, restaurants, and cafés.

Our unit was clean, comfortable, and very well stocked. We especially appreciated the well-equipped kitchen and the Starbucks K-Cups — a great touch in the mornings! The views of the river and mountains from the unit and balcony were absolutely beautiful.

We also loved spending time in the gazebo in the mornings and evenings. It was such a peaceful spot to relax and take in the scenery after a day of exploring.

We highly recommend Riverside Cottages, especially for families. Great location, beautiful views, and everything you need for a comfortable and relaxing stay. We would definitely stay here again!

Great location, Clean room - EXTREMELY SMALL AND TIGHT ROOM.
Pros:

The location was very good. The person I interacted in at check in was very helpful.

Cons:

My wife thought we would have a river view. There was no view, except the parking lot. Not as we were led to believe.
The room was clean but Extremely Small. There was virtually no room to move around. We were told the bed was a Queen - I believe it was smaller

Exactly what you need for a trip to the park
Pros:

The location was great. It was within walking distance of everything I needed to get to. The rooms were nice and fairly comfortable. The AC and heat worked well and the bed was comfortable enough - I think it wasn't my exact preference but the rest of my party slept well. Staff was wonderful and super helpful. I'd absolutely stay here again if I am ever headed back to Yellowstone.

Cons:

There really wasn't anything I didn't like

Affordable, accessible, clean, well stocked with supplies for kitchen and bedding.
Pros:

Hotel was close to entrance of Yellowstone and local dining and shopping. The view from the deck and room were very pleasant. The checkin process was smooth and encounters with Staff were enjoyable and helpful. It was helpful to have a kitchen area fully stocked when we didn't feel like going back out after a long day in the park. Daily cleaning service was such a relief!

Cons:

The parking is rather tight and with larger vehicles it was a little tougher to back out of parking spaces. There was quite a bit of noise from the room above us at night... sounded like a child tromping around and jumping till later in the night.
