The Ridgeline Hotel® at Yellowstone

The comforts of home. Convenient hotel lodging in Gardiner, MT.

TEMPORARY SEASONAL CLOSURE

The Ridgeline Hotel® at Yellowstone and the Jim Bridger Explorer Cabins are temporarily closed as of March 15, and will re-open on April 12, 2024.

The Yellowstone Mine Restaurant is also closed, but the Rusty Rail Lounge will remain open from 4pm-Midnight.

A Wild West setting in the truest sense, Yellowstone National Park is an epic destination. Home to gray wolves, bison and grizzly bears, here, humans are the invasive species. Yellowstone is a sight to behold that plays host to more than four million people each year. In a widescreen world like this, you want to stay as close to the park as possible. Few area hotels are as conveniently located as the Ridgeline Hotel® at Yellowstone (formerly the Best Western by Mammoth Hot Springs), and our on-site restaurant The Yellowstone Mine. Experience northern comfort, just outside the North Entrance to Yellowstone, in the community of Gardiner, Mont. When you stay here, you’re minutes away from the famous Roosevelt Arch, as well as the Mammoth Hot Springs area and Yellowstone’s upper loop.

  • We stayed 4 nights and had absolutely no problems. The staff were all friendly and very helpful. Because of Covid there was no daily housekeeping (but we've found that to be the case all around the country in the last 2 years). Anything we needed was supplied quickly and with no problem at all.
  • The shower had nice pressure and plenty of hot water. Our room was spacious, clean, and the bed and pillows were comfortable. We didn't need the heat, but the A/C worked fine. We used the pool 3 times and it was well maintained and clean.

  • In a 500 year flood the staff excelled. We stayed during the big flood in Yellowstone. All roads out of Gardiner were impassable. The staff and especially the manager, were untiring in their support at a very difficult time.

  • The room was clean, and very quiet (I didn’t hear neighbors at all during my stay). Loved that it was [near two of] our favorite Gardiner restaurants, Mountain Taco & Outlaws pizza. Fun to see elk and deer right outside our window.

  • Well located near the National park entrance. Room was very clean, and staff was very kind and helpful! We would stay here again!
    Lisa, Expedia.com - June, 2022
  • Our room had a river view and it was perfect! We ate breakfast (which was good) went to the bar, used the pool and the jacuzzi. It was an easy walk to other restaurants too. And the staff was very friendly and helpful.
