Room 214. Very nice
Lorin C.

Excellent older restored Hotel! Service was excellent a little pricey but it was completely sold out due to the Motorcycle festival. Our beds were very comfortable the A/C worked perfectly Just love all the decorations and details to this Hotel. Way better than a new hotel in my opinion.

Third story room

Exactly what we were looking for in a fun cozy weekend trip away from the day to day life. Great place to relax, enjoy Red Lodge and take it slow. The historic building has a charm that I'd prefer over a modern fancy place. The staff was super friendly and helpful. We'll be staying here again.

Do you wanted the haunted or the unhaunted room? What? What? And that's how this visit started. Historic hotels, historic anything, are an immediate draw for me. This was no exception. The Pollard is a beautiful hotel, well-maintained, and steeped in the old-style elegance of a hotel from its era. It's a warm and inviting setting. But while the setting, and the architecture are period consistent, the Pollard still has the modern amenities. They do a really nice job with it. The front desk staff are personable and funny. I imagine they can assist with any glitches in a guests' stay -- except for mine. The issue arises when you book on the hotel website. When Red Lodge increased the tax rate, the hotel was and still is, unable to get their website to reflect the new rate. Granted, it is a minor amount, but detracted from what otherwise is a lovely hotel and a great experience. Oh, and as for the haunted room decision: I told them to surprise me, and it wasn't until the next morning I learned I "may" have had the haunted room. Or so they say. Some stories suggest most rooms on the third floor, and the third floor in general, are haunted. I can't say anything happened -- except that none of the lights would turn on. Or when they did, they'd turn themselves off. Skeptical me thinks it was just a short in the wiring or a loose bulb, but who knows?

I'm a sucker for historic hotels...in fact, this one's even said to be haunted so enter at your own risk... Ok, just kidding...well not really but we'll get to that later. The hotel itself it quite lovely, vintage and historic in so many ways! It's gone through quite a metamorphosis since the 1800's, but in Sept of '91 the Hotel Company of Red Lodge purchased The Pollard making it one of the finest small hotels of the Rocky Mountain West! The rooms are very nice...we had a corner room on the third floor that overlooked the main drag...speaking of the third floor...there are a lot of ghosts. On our first night we were reading a book about hotels that were haunted in Colorado. Boo! Who would have known that this would have been one of them! So litterateur says that the most activity is in Room 312 (burning smells, etc). We were in 306 and I kept smelling an electrical burn smell...checked all of the outlets but they were good. Ghosts aside, all in all it was an A+ Hotel! Would def come back!

Huckleberry'tini and rye sour(really delicious)
Alicia B.

I would have most likely given this a five but for no follow up to my reservation-no one emailed or called. I had to call to confirm. Found out that there was No Breakfast on Wednesday. In fact Red Lodge Wednesday morning is pretty shut down so be aware. Carbon County Steakhouse ( a fave) was also closed Tuesday so ate at Hotel's place- Marli's. Had a pleasant meal. The bison meatball starter was delicious! Good cocktails and desserts and ambiance. My strip steak was delicious and cooked perfectly but needed trimming. We will come back but plan on later week stay.

Newly renovated restroom with period finishes

Beautifully elegant historic hotel. We stayed in room 315 which had a comfortable king bed. Everything is well appointed with a mix of modern comforts and historic finishes.

The rooms were quaint and exactly what you would expect from a historic hotel--I loved it.

We had left the Badlands of S Dakota that morning, and had spent the day driving across Wyoming to…read moreRed Lodge, with the plan to hit Yellowstone in the morning. The town of Red Lodge is very cute, with lots of restaurants and stores. To be honest, the Beartooth sounded better online than it was in person. It is definitely in a need of a refresh. We had booked this vacation somewhat last minute, so other locations to stay had already been booked up, so it is what it is. But we were grateful that we were only staying one night. The breakfast is limited, both in selection, and length of time that it's available. Everything is prepackaged and chilled from being in the fridge. If you put the pastries in the microwave for a few seconds, it definitely helped. For the price, I would've expected better accommodations, but honestly, when you are staying in a gateway community to a national park, this is often what you find.

Inn by the creek! This place narrowly missed the flood of…read more2022! The creek overtook its banks, took out some of the road, but this place survived! When I went, the hot tub was out of order. They have a big, inviting pool that's heated and indoors! The ice machine worked just fine. Parking was easy, there's a dedicated lot that has a big bear statue out on the roadside, with benches with bears carved into them. When I went, I saw wild turkeys roaming the parking lot! The art in here is something else. There's a term for it- it's scenic Montana scenes carved into wood in 3D. Cool. The room was good- it didn't have anything too incredible going on with it, other than the art. A small TV in the corner was ample. The HVAC operated just fine. The staff was very nice and gracious. Somehow my car back hatch was left open all night, and no bears or thieves got in. There's a sign not to leave food in your car, as there might be bears. Seriously. They offer free breakfast. It was short-lived before they locked it back down again, but it has yogurt, donuts, bagels, fruit, juice, milk, cereal, and weak coffee.
