You truly can't beat the location of the Bavarian Inn Hotel in the Black Hills. It's close to…read moreeverything and all the main attractions. The property is beautiful and very well maintained, and the staff is wonderful. You can tell they genuinely enjoy their jobs, which makes the whole experience even more pleasant. Check-in was quick and easy. The rooms are a bit outdated in style, but they are very clean and comfortable. I do wish the bathroom had been a little larger and that it didn't have a shower curtain instead of a glass door. Housekeeping is not provided daily, but you can request fresh linens and amenities each day, and they will be delivered to your room. Overall, it's fairly priced, great for families, with plenty of parking and lots of nearby services. I would definitely recommend it for anyone visiting the area.

Whether you are a retired couple, family, or young honeymooners- this place is a great place to stay in Custer. The staff was so friendly. There were so many family-centered activities to be outside and enjoy and we tried to take advantage of all of It! Outdoor and indoor pools, a full wall of board and card games and books, an outdoor fire pit setting to enjoy, chalk and jump ropes, a nice outdoor walking trail in nature, ball courts with balls. Our absolute favorite was ordering the cookies and milk bedtime delivery. This was something we could surprise our little kids with that they thought was so magical. Thank you for helping us build such special family memories!!

That's why we go back to places is because of the people. The hotel was clean and the view were great. We sat on the balcony and watched the cars go by and we also seen a lot of deers. The back patio is very nice with a waterfall coming down and plenty of seating and tables. Power for Electric cars. Indoor pool and hot tub. This is a great location if you are going to Custer Park and spend the day with the buffaloes and donkeys or burrows. Close to Needles Highway and Iron Mountain Road. Both of these are a must but drive safe. Very close to downtown Custer we're you can shop-eat and just relax. I highly recommend this Holiday Inn and we will be back.

Relatively large hotel, with a good size pool although there seems to be a lot of kids all the time so not possible to swim. Room is a good size with either view of the road in front or trees in back. We had a room with 2 queens. Clean, comfy bed and good bedding and pillows. There is a fridge and microwave, although no real cups to use in it unless you bring your own. Bathroom is quite spacious with shower over tub. Hot water takes a while to flow but once it comes it's a good strong shower. Room also had a table and two regular chairs. Wi-Fi a bit weak. Relatively large hotel, breakfast room quite big but can get crowded around 8. Included breakfast with Eggs and bacon, oatmeal, yogurt, apples and bananas, basic and average as expected for this class of accommodation. Compare to other places this one has a lot more children maybe due to the area attractions.

Our room was clean, comfortable and charming - charming in a way that might remind you of staying overnight at Grandma's or Auntie's house in that spare bedroom. Coming into Custer the other day and looking for a place to stay the night, we happened upon this one and were mighty happy we did. We checked in and asked about places in the area to get some dinner. One place we'd driven by and then asked about had Amy's approval and so we walked down the 1-2 blocks to the pizza place to order before their 8:30pm closing time. $69/night for 1 queen-size bed, 3/4 bath and t.v. Plus, the next morning, you can buy a breakfast coupon at the front desk for $4.99 - it's good for the next-door restaurant (The Wrangler Cafe, or something similar) - the coupon will save you $4 on that one breakfast plate.

The parking lot does fill up but we were able to find a spot close to our ground floor room. The room had a comfortable king size bed, a large flat screen TV with cable service and a wall mounted AC in the back above the sink. The AC was noisy but in a good way to drown out any outside noise. We enjoyed a good night's rest here. Our only complaint was the small number of towels in the room. I'm sure we could have asked for and received more but we didn't.

Having previously stayed at The Bavarian Inn just up the road, we reached out to discover that they, among others, were closed. The owners mentioned their new property in town, EO Bungalows, and how they were offering enhanced cleaning and contactless check-in/out. This combination was perfect for us and we booked one night. This location features four private units with ensuite bathrooms and a common courtyard. Parking is curbside and you're just one block off the main strip, making the location very walkable. The units themselves are wonderful. Nicely furnished with very comfortable beds; a kitchette with everything you need including a toaster; a bathroom with an incredible steam shower, dimmable lighting in all areas and artwork that creates a wonderful, peaceful atmosphere. We drive an electric car and found convenient free charging available at the local Chamber of Commerce just two blocks away. We had dinner on The Custer Wolf's patio and enjoyed our first restaurant meal in months. Thanks EO Bungalows! We'll be back... looking forward to the next Tesla rally, whenever that is.

There were a few issues...but they were manageable since I wasn't staying in the room alone. Trouble 1) When showering, you can't reach the shower controls while sitting on the shower bench. I keep seeing this in hotels, I'm not sure what they expect you to do. Most people who need a shower bench can't stand up and get the controls! Trouble 2) Tiny little closet rod, difficult to get to behind the table & chairs (and the bathroom door). It's low, to make it an accessible height, but so difficult to reach that it was almost not worth even trying! Trouble 3) Table and chairs in the room would be nice if we were cooking in our room & such, but since we weren't they were really just in the way. The table was too small to pull under when in a wheelchair anyway. Their location meant that I couldn't reach the kitchenette area anyway. If I'd been staying alone I'm not sure how I would have handled the shower, and I would have requested that staff remove the table & chairs. Just thought I'd warn other wheelchair users so they can make an informed decision. The bed was adequately comfortable, water pressure was great, the room a little noisy due to the proximity of the ice-room & the parking lot. Overall - could have been better, but could have been much worse - at least i was able to get in and out! :)
