Rough Riders

We stayed in one of the Wooly Boys Inn cabins and were very disappointed. Worn, dated, dusty and smelly. We asked to be moved to the hotel, but there was no availability. The toilet seat needs replaced, the couch sags, ceiling fan and windows sills covered in dust and the quilts were very worn. Looks like it was decorated in the 90s and never updated.

Stayed here 2 nights while visiting the park. Enjoyed the old west atmosphere and decor. Our room was small but very clean, comfortable and convenient to everything in town. The staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was not included which would be nice considering the price for a room. Or at least a discount for staying there. We chose to eat there one morning and elsewhere at Cowboy Cafe the other morning.

First of all, I love historic hotels and was very much looking forward to this stay. With virtually no amenities I would have expected service and character instead, of which there was neither. There was nothing that gave the feel of staying in an 140 year old hotel. The staff were all nice, but zero training in service. Checking in we were simply handed a key and that was it. Checking out came with a simple "have a good one". Dining Room was very unprofessional and the second 8pm hit they were vacuuming and even took the flowers off of our table while we were finishing dessert. Also very odd that we couldn't charge our meal to our room...

Nous avions choisi cet Hôtel pour son caractère historique, construit à la fin du 19e siècle, et sa proximité du parc national Théodore Roosevelt. Medora est un charmant village très touristique, qui fait plutôt penser à un Disneyland style western, quasiment tout est artificiel, y compris notre hôtel, entièrement démonté en 1963, et dont l’annexe où nous avons dormi date de 2008. Première déception. Les prix sont totalement surfaits par rapport à la qualité des chambres. Elles sont propres et modernes, mais les stores à l’intérieur ne permettent pas d’avoir une obscurité totale. Malgré deux mails envoyés pour réserver une table au restaurant, je n’ai jamais reçu de réponse. Nous sommes donc allés manger ailleurs. Le petit déjeuner n’est même pas compris dans le prix. Lors du départ, la réceptionniste était extrêmement froide et n’a même pas daigné nous dire au revoir. En bref cet établissement est un attrape touristes qui profite pleinement de sa situation idéale, mais pratique des prix exagérés et ne respecte pas vraiment ses clients. Dommage, je m’attendais à beaucoup mieux dans cette gamme de prix.

My husband and I had dinner at the Rough Riders restaurant. My husband had Walleye and I had Blackened salmon, it was so delicious. The dinners came with salad, the most delicious bread, Wild/brown rice and Asparagus. Portion sizes were large and I took some switch me. Service was excellent. Atmosphere too. Prices reasonable. Atmosphere great.

Although the Rough Riders Hotel was ~$300/night, it provided an excellent hotel to stay in for a tourist area. The location is hard to beat, being just a few blocks from the park entrance and within walking distance to shops, restaurants, and ice cream. The rooms were quiet, spacious, and even informative with a nice touch of a book on Teddy and Medora history. The shower was top notch! The staff was multi-national and helpful for our needs.
