This property was just perfect. Located central to dining and Yellowstone entrance. Also staff was very friendly. Included in your stay is a kit to make s’mores by the fire that’s on the property and binoculars to use for your hike.

Ridgeline...friendly service & great amenities.
Have stayed at 3 hotels in Gardiner as well as 3 inside Yellowstone National Park. All of the hotels are rustic in nature. Understanding this, the accommodations at several places are nice. Personally, I prefer staying in Gardiner because you have several restaurant options, some with live music, grocery store access, optical equipment supply store (recommend a scope for best viewing opportunities such as wolves, grizzlies, eagle nests, carcass sites, etc), gas station without markups compared to inside the park (tip: fill up and clean windshield each night when returning to Gardiner), and some gift shops. ~10 minutes to Mammoth, with animal viewing on the way. Pros: walking distance to several restaurants (Outlaw Pizza and Corral are favorites of mine. Wonderland Cafe is nice as well, but be prepared for waits, and about 0.8 miles away compared to 2-5 min walks to the first two mentioned above), blackout curtains, in-room binoculars, great views of river and mountains, covered fire pit with lounging chair surround…did not confirm, but potentially an outdoor fire pit as well, great for social visiting with friends/other guests, S'more kits for roasting at the fire pits (complimentary), in-room house service daily, plus changing sheets every three days for longer stays, nice room accommodations, fridge and microwave, and nicer showers than the other two I stayed at in Gardiner. Cons: mattress comfort is not the best, parking limited and can be tight. Trying the cabin next.

This is the best hotel that we have stayed at in Gardiner! The staff was helpful, friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. The room was a little too hot for me and when I went to the front desk to ask for a fan, the night clerk insisted on taking it to the room for us. This is a very kid friendly property, the game room was fun and the complimentary smores were a great way to end our night. We came or deers in the parking lot area of our building, too. The layout is a little bit scattered but it’s not a hassle to navigate. The cabins are beautiful and sit uphill from the main building. There is also another building that is on the side of the river. Not all of the river view rooms have balconies facing the river, they have windows and the hotel pictures don’t clearly show this detail. If you don’t stay in one of the cabins and want a river view make sure to get a room on the bottom level of the riverside building. There are chairs and benches outside of each room so that you can walk right out and enjoy the balcony view of the river.

We enjoyed the cabins at Ridgeline. Everything was clean and the roof deck area was nice. Is not far from restaurants and attractions in Gardener. Made for very easy access in and out of the park.
