Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the hotel was nice overall. The rooms were a bit dated but clean, and my kids had some skin irritation from the chlorine in the pools. The location was great for exploring the nearby attractions, but there were some issues with the dining options.
My stay at the hotel was delightful, with spacious rooms equipped with a lovely deck to enjoy the beautiful weather. The game room was a fun bonus, although the door issue needed maintenance attention. The location was perfect for exploring the Black Hills attractions, but the dining experience left something to be desired.
My stay at the Bavarian Inn was fantastic! The hotel is located in a beautiful area, close to the Black Hills activities my family enjoys. The rooms were modern with a touch of spunk, always clean, and serviced daily. The service was excellent, the staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring a wonderful experience. The dining options were above average, with a variety of choices to start the day right. The facilities were top-notch, with great amenities for all guests to enjoy.
