This is the second time in the past four months that I have stayed here and the experience was again great. Yes, this is an older, historic hotel. That's the charm. The location is the other plus to this hotel. You are within walking distance of shops and restaurants downtown. Parking has never been an issue. I have always been... More

Our arrival was quite awkward due to parking and not knowing where we could park or if there was valet. From there on out though, the hotel exceeded our expectations. The history of the hotel was provided to us upon check in and we enjoyed looking around. The room was a decent size and the bed was really comfortable. Our... More

I stayed at The Hotel Alex Johnson on my last day of business in Rapid City. The lobby has a charm that I have never experienced. I stayed in room 924 and loved the quaint layout of the room. I would describe the room as small with a bed and breakfast romantic feel to it....loved it! I had a view... More

It is a historic hotel and has all of the character that goes along with it. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, and check in was a breeze. The coffee... More

We never got to socialize with any spirits, but we did wander up to the 8th floor (the one with the most reported incidents) and captured a few orbs in... More

Check in was slow even with a reservation but not a show stopper, staff was friendly. Lobby and hallway were impressive but went down hill fast from there. The room did have character but very small, not maintained, poorly cleaned, and this was supposed to be an upgrade. The view was of a nasty alley covered in graffiti called "art"... More

This is our favorite place for a staycation. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The rooms are comfortable and peaceful. Best of all, it's in the heart of our very charming downtown with many shops and restaurants to choose from.

We had the pleasure of beginning and ending our trip to the Black Hills at The Hotel Alex Johnson. It is the perfect location for exploring historic Rapid City and meeting with the statues of the American presidents. My son was especially delighted with the comic book store across the street and the used book store around the corner! My... More

I appreciate your responsiveness to my previous feedback. I have since stayed here twice more and both times the service was excellent and there were no maintenance needs that I noticed. Thank you for your responsiveness. The food at both Paddy's and Vertex is extraordinary. I always enjoy my stay.
