After weeks spent camping in national parks, we decided to save the Old Faithful geyser for the last morning before leaving Yellowstone. We stowed our camp cooking gear and went to the Old Faithful Inn for breakfast. After watching the geyser erupt we walked over to the hotel. The entrance to the hotel was simply outstanding with its soaring stone... More

Honestly, when my family would always come here we would always make a stop at this place being that it was right by old faithful. It is worth it to walk into it and get a break from the hot sun! and to see how it was constructed it is amazing!

It was humongous! Gorgeous! Elegant! I loved everything about it. Store, restaurant, lounge, Art, tour on your own to view the old rooms to stay in and beautifully huge windows to look out of. One fault.....minor......young waiter was unfriendly in the lounge.

Plan to spend a few hours in this area. There are numerous springs, pools, geysers, plus the Inn itself to explore in this area. Wear good walking shoes!

The Old Faithful in offers many advantages. You can stay here the summer and feel a little closer to how people seeing the park in the early 1900s stayed (with the added benefit of plumbing!)You get to see Old Faithful erupt multiple times, as well as increasing your chance at seeing many of the other geysers in the Upper Geyser...

The inn is historic and impressive in it's architectural design. (a large log structure). It's a little on the noisy side if you want to sleep there, but it's very charming. Of course, it is near the famous geyser, Old Faithful and your would not want to miss seeing that go off, which happens about every 110 minutes.

Going back in time...what a beautiful Inn. The fireplace is massive. Sit on the porch maybe with some hot cocoa...and think what it might have been in the OLD days,,.
