Clean, quiet, friendly, a most adequate bed. I enjoyed being off the beaten path. this review wants 200 words but I think i said everything one would want to know about a motel. but if trip advisor needs more words, I'd say stay here if your in the wilderness to get away from the boob tube and staring down at...

10/5/12: Thronson’s in Babb, MT is the back and beyond if you’re there to hike! From before we arrived till the day we left, Marie and Stephanie couldn’t have taken better care of us. The General Store has everything you’ll need and then some to ensure you have a great time exploring the East side; snow arrived early and we... More

We ended up in the St. Mary's area without reservations. Rain and sleet was falling, and rooms were not to be found. A local mom and pop operation called Thornton's for us about noon. They had only rooms with 2 queen beds remaining. $95. Which was still cheaper than other placed. We took room, unseen. If you are looking for... More

This place was clean. that's the only compliment I can give it. There is no reason this place should be in business. It is way over priced $100. No deadbolt of any kind. Bathroom door wont close all the way (teen daughters). TV with only one fuzzy Canadian channel, even though the owner has satellite dishes hanging all over the... More

We stayed here one night in August because other hotels near Glacier were full. It is not too far from the Going-to-the-Sun Road and the Many Glacier area, but this area (East Glacier) is desolate and there is nothing to do here family-wise in the evening when you are finished hiking and exploring Glacier Park. West Glacier has much more... More

When I made a reservation for this site, I was told that in order to fulfill my request for 3 beds, we would have to stay in the cabin "out back that has a bathroom right next door." Hmmm. Needless to say, we were a little concerned about this place before we arrived. Lo and behold, we experienced a wonderful... More

The room smelled dingy and old, the tv had one channel and it was a very fuzzy picture. The shower was very out dated and gross. The room only had one lock with no chain or deadbolt. This was very unsettling since there were several men hanging around out front smoking and loitering. The view out the bathroom window was... More

I stayed here in 2007 and again this past summer 2011. After traveling all day in Canada then rushing to get over the border, it is nice to have this motel. The owners are friendly, remember me from several years before and provided a lot of local travel information. Is it fancy, no, but I was not looking for a... More

When the Glacier Park Motels are full, or if you do not want to pay the high prices, try this motel. It is the only motel in Babb, but the location is perfect for the East side of the Park. From the outside it is very plain, but the inside is extremely clean, the rooms are large but not fancy,... More

Nice no frills reasonable priced hotel at the entrance road to Many Glacier. Quiet location, despite it being right on the road. Friendly staff, clean rooms, comfortable beds. Bathroom was small but adequate. Everything was freshly painted, floors are a nice seamless vinyl plank grain floor. We ate at the Cafe across the street for breakfast and dinner. Good food... More
