Top Center Lake Hotel Reviews

Baymont by Wyndham Keystone Near Mt. Rushmore

10/10 Excellent

"Convenient, clean, excellent beds! Will definitely stay here again - we are out to Keystone every fall, so this will be a repeat next year."

Rushmore Express Keystone

10/10 Excellent

"Great property, very nice staff. Super comfortable beds! Breakfast was way better than expected, I looked forward to it every morning. Will definitely stay here again."

Roosevelt Inn Mount Rushmore

8/10 Good

"Nice hotel. Finishings are a little rough around the edges. Bathroom is small and could use updating. Staff is courteous. Breakfast is decent. Location is excellent to Mt. Rushmore, which allows for multiple visits to the park, if wanted."

Ramada by Wyndham Keystone Near Mt Rushmore

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and comfortable. We liked the cookies in the lobby when we came in and my kids loved the pool!"

Comfort Inn & Suites Mt. Rushmore

8/10 Good

"The hotel is a wonderful place to stay. The location is great. The front desk staff is extremely helpful. The rooms are very nice. Now we get to the breakfast. The food for the breakfast is quite good. However, the plastic knives, forks, and spoons are the worst I have ever seen. They are flimsy beyond belief. It is almost impossible to cut anything with the plastic knife. The plastic forks bend to a 90° angle when you try to put them into something. Both the kitchen staff and the front deck staff are aware of this problem. They don’t believe they can do anything about it. After our first breakfast, we brought plastic wear from a restaurant that we had eaten lunch in. During the breakfast after our first night stay, my wife and I discussed the idea that it might be better to pick up the food with our hands and simply bite it. We didn’t do this, but it was tempting."

Quality Inn Keystone near Mount Rushmore

10/10 Excellent

"Small parking area but hotel was nice. Clean room."

Under Canvas Mount Rushmore

10/10 Excellent

"Visiting Mt. Rushmore with no prior planning was challenging. Having never glamped, staying here was a delightful western experience. The staff was very helpful, the accommodations were exactly as described, the bed very comfortable. It was an enjoyable sleep. The dining was very affordable and quite delicious. Overall it was one of the highlights of our five day trip to the Black Hills and Badlands. Without doubt, we would stay at an Under Canvas facility again."
