Pet Friendly Hotels in Rapid City

I picked this hotel due to the cancellation policy - several hotels in the area are nonrefundable. My life is in constant flux so nonrefundable wasn't for me. The location is good as its right off I90 in Rapid City. The hotel lobby was very pleasant with a warm greeting awaiting us and since we were Honor members I was given the choice of choosing what room and location I wanted. We picked the first floor and never had any noise problems. The rooms have Luxury vinyl flooring which I thought made sense (carpeting can get kinda gross) the room was very clean and kind of non traditional - There is no dressers but rather a long bench to put your luggage on with storage underneath. For toiletries instead of the usual hand soap and bottles of shampoos etc there were squeeze bottles with hand soap, lotion, shampoo all attached to the wall. I would have preferred pump dispensers as I found it hard to squeeze at times. There were hooks on the walls for handing coats etc. The shower was large again with squeeze bottles however the water flow from the shower was on water saver mode. It only had one large stream not the usual spray effect. I think this was due to The city being on high plains and not with great water sources. We got used to it. There isn't a microwave in the room nor a coffee maker. But the lobby had all that - I found the first floor location handy for this. The lobby offered coffee, water, tea and was well stocked. They had other treats for a cost. The breakfast was the usual pancakes, cereal, eggs, sausage fair and was open until 10am. If you didn't like the Hilton offers you were welcome to go to the Hampton Inn and use their facilities. My family and I really enjoyed our stay there. I would recommend it highly.

TL:DR: Don't bother with the ”Presidential” level. BW & I stayed here for two nights while touring around the Black Hills. While pleasant enough, we would not return. To be clear, this review is of the ”Presidential” (”upscale” extra-charge) area of the hotel. I booked this, thinking it would be something special for part of a second (54th?) honeymoon. In some ways, it was perfectly acceptable. Quiet, top-floor room accessible only by key card. Mural graphics of local attractions as wallpaper. Designer chair and ottoman. A really good bed. So, not terrible. But it fell WAY short of extraordinary accommodation for extraordinary price. For example, despite being an ”exclusive” area of the hotel, there was no routinely-expected ”Presidential” lounge available to the guests who pony up. Towels were exchanged in the bath, but the bed was intentionally not made. This so-called limited service was stressed, along with the repeated ”Breakfast is for PURCHASE!” admonishment at check-in. In the bath, the provided shampoo, conditioner, and body wash were in cheap dispensers, hard to use, and the body wash simply refused to come out. The freezer in the in-room refrigerator was so encrusted with ice that we couldn't get an ice cream bar into it. The in-room coffee maker dispensed the cheapest ”something” that was mostly undrinkable. Power outlets were inadequate to charging today's routinely carried electronics. The ”desk” (a long, narrow bar along one wall) was plainly designed for form over function. Only two dresser drawers; we had to keep most of our clothes in our luggage. And only two small (think old European hotel) elevators to serve nine floors of a tour bus hotel. Imagine the crush in the morning when everyone is trying to get downstairs to the bus. Net, not terrible. But not worth a return trip unless you are on an inexpensive cattle car tour of the Black HIlls in one of the cheaper lower floor rooms.

I’m in Rapid City pretty frequently for work and I’ve stayed at quite a few hotels, this will now be my go to when I stay here. Great price, super clean modern rooms, comfy bed and it was very quiet all night. Directly off the interstate so it’s a great location but it’s still not noisy. Staff was very friendly when I was checking in. The room has a nice TV and a very soft blanket and the AC works very good. Room is a spacious, has a kitchenette and a full size fridge and there’s a truck stop within walking distance if you want to save some money and buy food to cook yourself. From my experience every hotel in Rapid City is either really expensive or really sketchy but this place is neither! Couldn’t recommend this place enough!!

Husband and I spent five nights here on recent trip to South Dakota. The hotel was clean and a very convenient location. Lots and lots of tour groups passing through, but it wasn't noisy or bothersome. The room was a nice size and beds comfortable. We also used the laundry room, which was clean but only one washer and dryer.

The hotel is located at the northeast corner of the outer ring of the rapid city, with McDonald's next door. The hotel has a swimming pool. It is convenient on high speed. Wind cave elevator maintenance, you must first check before going. I came across a tornado from the Badlands National Park. .

Dog friendly, has a bar inside the hotel, and a Perkins right next door for food.

Pleasant stay

Checked in here late on a weeknight for a quick stay in the area. We chose this hotel, as it was located on the south side of town, which is what we wanted for our adventure the next day. This appears to be an old holiday inn branded hotel. The gentleman who checked us in was quick and to the point. The room was comfy and the hotel was nice & quiet. Breakfast was grab and go for covid. It consisted of a granola bar, cereal bar, and a cup of applesauce. Juice & coffee were also available. This hotel has a nice balcony off of the breakfast area, that overlooks a lot of the town. Michelle checked us out in a very friendly manner. I would definitely stay here again in the future.
