We stayed here for one night on our Parks journey. We were pleasantly surprised at how clean the rooms were. The breakfast was a bonus that we had no idea was included. There isn't much open early so this was a special treat. This is the place to stay if you want to be close to the Badlands.
Thanks for choosing to stay with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again.
Great place to stay while visiting the Badlands, 10 minutes away. Probably the best place considering it's a very small town. Downtown main drag is minutes away (Wall Drug, shops & a couple restaurants). Management clearly works hard to keep the facility clean & well maintained. Excellent variety for breakfast, including fresh donuts. Food attendant David was outstanding, very present on the floor cleaning & restocking & visiting with guests. Handicapped room was perfect with parking place right in front of room & breakfast building right across the parking lot. Note - there were only 3 restaurants open in town, plus a Dairy Queen, so you won't have much choice for dinner. The park has a restaurant but it's 30 miles or so inside the park. There are a few picnic areas in the park if you bring in food. Great experience at this hotel.
Thanks for staying with us. Thank you for the kind thoughtful review. We hope to see you again.
Located within walking distance of Wall Drug and shopping. Super clean. Beds were made with military precision. Owner circulated during breakfast to make sure everything was ship shape. Breakfast had almond milk available, much appreciated due to lactose intolerance.
Thanks for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again.
Great place to stay. Very clean. Two pools. Great breakfast. Very quiet. If you're handicap. Ask for a room on the first floor. No elevators. Check out Walls Drug. They have a great restaurant. The buffalo burger is great.
Thank you for choosing to stay with us. Your business and positive feedback is greatly appreciated. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay, and we hope to see you again in the future. Have a great day!
This hotel is a gem. Very well maintained with a very friendly staff.
We want to thank you for staying with us. Your business and positive feedback is truly appreciated. It makes us proud to know that our staff was friendly. Come back and see us again sometime. Safe Travels!
Very clean and staff was exceptional. From check in to check out .All staff members were friendly and engaging and attentive. Special shout out to REN at the front desk and David the breakfast host both go above and beyond to make sure things are perfect.
Thanks for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again.
We stayed at this motel while visiting Wall, South Dakota, and overall it was a solid choice for the price. In our opinion, it's probably one of the nicer motel options in the area. The room was clean and served its purpose, although both the room and especially the bathroom felt dark and somewhat dated. If you're looking for modern accommodations, this may not be the best fit, but it was perfectly adequate for an overnight stay. On the positive side, the motel offered a nice breakfast and a well-maintained pool area, which were both appreciated after a day of traveling and sightseeing. Overall, this is a good value for the price. Just keep your expectations in line with it being a motel rather than a full-service hotel, and you'll likely have a comfortable stay.
We want to thank you for staying with us. Your business and feedback is important to us. It is a priority for us to serve all our guests to our best ability. We hope that you enjoyed your time with us in Wall. Have a great day!
I have been to Wall, South Dakota so many times, that I didn't even check out Wall Drug this time. It's probably the main reason someone would stay here, and probably the main reason there are so many accommodation choices here. I'm glad I chose BW Plains Motel . Here's why: It was clean, comfortable, and quiet and affordable. The quiet part is interesting, since the place was full, but yet not noisy. Ren & Alen at the front desk were helpful and friendly. Three things to know before you stay: There are two floors, but no elevator, so if stairs are an issue with you, be *sure* to mention that you need a first floor room. The rate is good for the location, around $200 when I was there. Finally, if you will arrive after 9 p.m., call ahead before then. I arrived before nine, but I was informed of this when I booked the room.
We want to thank you for choosing to stay with us. Your business and feedback are greatly appreciated. It is good to hear that you enjoyed your stay and that you found the room clean, comfortable, and quiet. If you stay with us again and for some reason a downstairs room is not available, we do have on call staff that is more than happy to help haul luggage to the second floor. Have a great day!
This is an older property, but it is clean and very well managed. Excellent free breakfast, good pool, friendly and helpful staff. Great place to stay in Wall.
Thank you for choosing to stay with us. Your business and review are greatly appreciated. It makes us proud to know that you enjoyed our breakfast, pool, and helpful staff. Enjoy the remainder of your travels. Have a great day!!
We had an amazing stay! This hotel is clean and well kept, the staff friendly, and every area of the property confirms the family takes great pride in helping guests have a great experience. We especially enjoyed David, who oversees breakfast - I can't count the number of times he asked how we were doing. The food was delicious. I can't recommend this property enough!
We want to personally thank you for staying with us. Your business and positive review are greatly appreciated. It is so great to hear that you enjoyed your stay. We will make sure to let David know that you appreciated his service in the breakfast room. Have a great day! Safe Travels
We had amazing service from David. He really went above and beyond to help us with everything we needed. Super friendly guy!
Thank you for choosing to stay with us! Your business and review are greatly appreciated. We will make sure to let David know that his service went above and beyond. Enjoy your travels!
Awesome room for family of 6. Great pools. Very clean. Great breakfast and staff.
Thanks for choosing to stay with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again.
Horrible place to stay , Air doesn't work properly, Sink set up is outside the bathroom right in front of the bed , So you and your family use the bathroom and than leave the bathroom and than wash your hands , Giant mirror in front of the sink makes it so while in bed you are staring at the people in the other bed , Toilet size is for a child and right up against the door and the door has a one inch gap at the bottom so your entire family can hear your business , This room was reserved for 5 people and and in no way should more than 2 even think of staying in this room , Bottom line is this is the worst set up I have ever seen in my life and the place is out dated and cringy, I honestly feel like it's a dirty place the homeless rent by the night versus a tourist spot , I have traveled and stayed all over the country and can can this is the sketchiest place I have ever stayed , I don't want to even sleep in the room but everything is booked elsewhere, Might opt to just sleep in my car ,
We apologize for any inconvenience that this may have caused you. Many motels have the sink set up outside of the bathroom, but we are sorry that setup wasn't to your liking. The gap in the door is to ensure proper air flow so that the moisture build up does not cause problems in the bathroom, as most bathroom doors should have a gap for this. This room is rated for 5 people as it has 2 queen size beds and a pull-out couch that sleeps 1 person. If you want to have only 1 person per bed then you are correct, it will work better for 3 people. If you look at our reviews, you will find that many people have thoroughly enjoyed staying with us, including our most recent reviews. We hope that you can enjoy the rest of your trip. Have a good day.
This is an older motel but our room was in very good condition. It was large enough to have a very small table and two chairs. We used the chairs for TV watching. There is also a mini fridge and microwave. There are no USB ports but plenty of electrical outlets and I always have a travel size power strip. There were several light fixtures which I considered a big plus since some hotels are so dim. The beds were very comfortable for us. Breakfast was hotel regular but had sausage and scrambled eggs the days we were there. The staff was friendly and super helpful.
We are so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay with us. We strive to make y our stay comfortable and w hope to see you again soon.
We stayed the night in Wall, SD after a day of driving thru The Badlands National Park. What a wonderful surprise we had when we checked into the Best Western Plains motel. It is family owned and run, and they definitely take their business seriously. The rooms were clean, the pool area spotless, breakfast was great and they had free popcorn in the lobby. Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. We got up at sunrise, and were able to do one last drive thru the Badlands as it is about 8 miles to the park entrance. Great experience all around.
Thank you for staying with us. Your business and review are truly appreciated. We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed our family owned and operated motel. It is satisfying to know that things were clean and that you enjoyed breakfast. We hope you enjoy the rest of your trip. Come back and see us again soon. Safe Travels!
The staff at this hotel is fantastic! Clean rooms, amazing breakfast, a gem of a place to stay when visiting the badlands! Highly recommend this hotel. The owner was out cleaning tables, parking lots and landscaping. How often do you see an owner doing that!
Thanks for choosing to stay with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We hope to see you again.
This is a very nice hotel. The staff is very knowledgeable and the employees are all so very helpful. It is very clean and comfortable. The breakfast has a great selection and the food was tasteful.
We want to thank you for choosing to stay with us! Your business and review are greatly appreciated. We really enjoy hearing that you had a clean and comfortable stay. We will let our breakfast team know that you liked the selection. Have a great day!! Safe Travels
definitely would stay here again! rooms very clean and beds were comfortable. building was quiet, and front desk staff were very friendly.
Thank you for your great comments. We work hard to make our place clean and friendly. We hope to see you again soon.
The staff was friendly. The room and property were clean. We felt safe at this location. However, our bathroom in the room was outdated. The Eggs at breakfast were disappointing. We felt that the price point for this property was high for what you get.
Thank you for choosing to stay with us. Your business and review are appreciated. We are happy to hear that our staff was friendly and the room was clean. Sorry that your experience with the bathroom and eggs were disappointing. We will take this into consideration with our staff. Have a great day and safe travels!
We only stopped because we had already driven over 600 miles, and it had excellent reviews. It is a family run establishment , and Everyone was exceptionally friendly and helpful, and the unit was spotless. The place, however, needs to be updated. The fifties sinks and toilets were clean but too low and old. I also thought the price was too high for a stop over on the way. It was the most expensive stay on the road ever. I will probably venture elsewhere on the way home, especially considering the price.
Thank you for staying with us! Your business and review are appreciated. We are glad to hear that your room was spotless and that everyone was helpful. Sorry to hear that you did not enjoy the sink and toilet height. Our prices are set to similar rates with the surrounding area. Best Western does offer a better rate if you are a rewards member for future reference. Safe Travels!
We stayed at this hotel for a night on our road trip through South Dakota. It was a good stop for our family of 6 (3 queen bed suite), with a decent breakfast that was included. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The room had a bit of a musty smell to it which is why I'm giving it 3 stars. You kind of got used to it but it was definitely noticeable walking into the room. For the location to explore the Badlands for a couple of days and there not being many other options this worked for us.
We want to thank you for choosing to stay with us, it is great to hear our staff was friendly and accommodating. We are sorry to hear that you had a smell in your room. We will have our team look into this right away. Your review helps us provide a positive experience for all of our guests. Have a great trip and safe travels!
The staff was super friendly, even left a heart-shaped towel and welcome note on the bed. Everything in the room was spotless. We could have used thicker blankets but made do with what we had. What really wowed us was the breakfast: everything (especially the sausage) was very well made, and the selection of baked goods was great.
We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us and we appreciate your business. Please spread the word about our great little town of Wall. We hope to see you again in the future.
David is the breakfast guru and deserves a 5 star review every time! The breakfast is hot, good and varied. The place is clean, organized and David is so kind and courteous. We highly recommend that if you are going to spend the night in Wall, SD, always pick The Plains Best Western.
We want to thank you for choosing to stay with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. Your business and kind review are greatly appreciated. Have a good day.
Best Western Plains Motel is a MUST STAY place. Accommodations were clean and very comfortable. The motel had the feel of a family operation which we learned through a letter in the room that it is just that. Everyone there was friendly helpful and seemed to really enjoy their work. The location is convenient to everything you want to do in the area and we were able to walk to dinner and the famous Wall Drug. The free morning breakfast buffet was a great way to start the day. If you want the feel of a vintage motel with the comfort and service of a much larger hotel, the Best Western Plains Motel is the place to stay.
Thank you for staying with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. Your business and kind review are greatly appreciated. Have a good day.
We stayed for a couple of nights on a road trip. The location in the center of Wall was ideally placed for exploring the nearby National Parks and sites. The staff were very polite, friendly and helpful. The suite was immaculately clean and tidy. There was plenty of choice at breakfast. A great stay for excellent value. Highly recommended!
We want to thank you for choosing to stay with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. Your business and kind review are greatly appreciated. Have a good day.
We stayed here after our time at Badlands National Park. It was a short drive to the hotel which was nice. Our room was very clean and the staff was very friendly. Room was large and had everything we needed. Close to many great places to eat, and Wall Drug store.
Thank you so much for your comments we appreciate your business. We hope you come see us again soon.
Everything is as listed on the hotel website. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Best customer experience I have ever had at a motel. Everything was very clean and in good condition. Would come back again for sure!
Thanks for the wonderful review. We appreciate your business and hope to see you again.
Not as advertised. Poor value. Odd smell in the room. Very dated. No ice available. Poor quality breakfast options. Please explore other options.
Thanks for staying with us. Thank you as well for your feedback. We apologize we did not meet your expectations. We wish we had known about the smell in the room as we could have done something about that. We do have ice machines on the first and second floor of our property. We are sorry the signage for that was not more visible. Thanks, and have a great day.
We were hiking the badlands the following day, so we wanted to stay as close as we could. I'm not sure how this hotel got 4/5 for ratings as I would say it's maybe 3.5 max. The staff were very friendly. The room was clean. But our bathroom was small and dark. The toilet was very low to the ground, and the shower water smelled weird. The walls are thinner it appeared because we could hear our neighbors TV on until late in the evening. The pool was in a different building which was inconvenient, and the hot tub was "working" but had not jets. This was a huge disappointment. If you are not looking to shower or use any amenities, and you just need an inexpensive place to crash, this is a good option.
We want to apologize for any inconvenience caused to you. Our hot tub does have working jets and has not been down in recent months, so it is a surprise to hear this, we will look into it right away. We have staff on call at all times and would have been willing to remedy any situation that we can help with. We hope that you enjoyed the Badlands and your time in Wall. Have a great day and safe travels!
We stayed here for three nights while visiting Badlands NP. The property, including our room, was clean. Bed was comfortable. Hot water was a bit “come and go” while showering, but nothing too bad. Breakfast was a little disappointing with no bagels or bacon, but those are just our personal preferred breakfast items. Staff was friendly, especially the breakfast staff members who were prompt to refill food as needed, offer to remove used plates, etc. Choices are limited in Wall, so all in all, we felt good about choosing this location. The hotel is very convenient to Main Street for dining and shopping. We enjoyed walking to dinner and Dairy Queen from the hotel. This is a big plus, as parking in Wall is limited. We would stay here again if we returned.
Thanks for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again.
Lex is the owner, and personally saw to our tub issue. Oscar is at the front desk, and was VERY helpful before and during our stay. David at the breakfast bar / dining room behaves as a true waiter. He helped us with several questions on the area. This is a clean and family oriented hotel. I would've loved to had the chance to use the pool and laundry. A must stay if you're visiting the Badlands, which is a FANTASTIC place!
Thanks for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again.
The rooms were comfortable and were as described. We had a first floor King. Adequate space. What gave it a 5* was the hospitality and cleanliness. And I cannot say enough about the delicious donuts at the breakfast bar. Made fresh and just what we needed for our long day in the Badlands. The convenient location also gets a plus. I only wish Wall had more to offer for restaurants. Wall Drugs is the big attraction. Silver Steer was delicious but pricey.
Thank you for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again.
We had a nice nights stay at this welcoming motel. It was very clean and comfortable. The room was a little dated, but was well laid out and had all we needed. The bath tub/shower was small/old but clean. The hotel provided soap, face soap, wipes and shampoo/conditioner. There was plenty of towels and also flannels. The beds were comfortable enough for one night, we slept well and it was super quiet. There is an indoor, outdoor pool and jacuzzi (no laundrette but there is a public one a block away). The free breakfast was excellent. Good selection of hot and cold foods, drinks and we liked how super clean and fresh the breakfast room was. They have a pancake machine, which is awesome. It provided hot fluffy pancakes at the press of a button. You could really tell the hotel takes pride in this place.
We want to thank you for choosing to stay with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. Your business is greatly appreciated. Have a good day.
This motel is obviously an older hotel that has been maintained fairly well. Clean but nothing more. The indoor pool and hot tub is a nice addition. This is not worthy of being rated Trip Advisor's Traveler award
We want to thank you for choosing to stay with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. Have a good day.
We stayed here on the way home from dropping our daughter off in Arizona for college. Room was clean, spacious and well kept. Beds were comfortable. Every employee was very pleasant and helpful. Would stay here again and recommend it.
We are so glad to hear you enjoyed your stay with us. Thank you for your business and kind review. Looking forward to seeing you again. Have a great day!!
Room was spacious, airy, and very clean. Breakfast exceeded our expectations. Staff was so friendly and helpful. Highly recommend a stay at this lovely hotel.
Thanks for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again.
Breakfast area was nice and large with a lot of options. The gentleman refilling things was very cheery and nice. Rooms were big, beds were comfortable and water pressure was good. Sink water never really got cold. Would stay here again.
Thanks for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay.
I've never been to a hotel where the staff so obviously care about and love both their property and their town. The staff couldn't share enough about great places for dinner, where to enjoy sunset, and how to get the most out of our stay. The room? A little dated and very dark. Good luck seeing in the bathroom. Oversized mini fridge and microwave make warming leftovers no problem. Smart TV brings a little modernity. The door didn't shut properly and the windows let in light. The breakfast was in the pool area and, due to rain outside, quite crowded and humid. But the pool was meticulously maintained and lovely. If we are ever back in Wall, we will absolutely stay here again.
Thanks for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again.
Wall is a classic tourist town, with limited hotel and restaurant options and everything overpriced. But it's so charming and a great story of entrepreneur success and our family loves stopping to get the free ice water and take pictures with all the photo ops at Wall Drug. We've never stayed overnight and might not again...normally we love Best Westerns but this one was so pricey and seemed badly in need of updating. We also struggled with the very strong taste of softeners in the water everywhere on property (including breakfast juice machine). It was sickly sweet and tasted horrible. The rooms were small and cramped. Ours had two queen beds and a small foldout sofa (could only sleep one elementary-age child - an adult would be uncomfortable) and a tiny bathroom with shower and toilet. Sink was in the bedroom area. There was a microwave and oversized mini-fridge which was nice and worked great. Smart TV saved us when there was a freak hailstorm/thunderstorm outside. The other highlight was the pool! There is an outdoor and indoor pool, and a jacuzzi inside too. Very nicely maintained pool area, plenty of clean towels and seating. Before the thunderstorm, we enjoyed the outside pool in the sunshine. Breakfast was very good with a pancake machine that made fresh pancakes, eggs with cubed ham, sausages, donuts, yogurts, oatmeal. Appreciated the almond milk (lactose-intolerant). The breakfast host was friendly and attentive and quick to attend to any needs. Small seating area in the pool lobby but more seating outside or near the pool. The pool was fantastic but the rooms and water would have us hesitate to return. The service was friendly and nice and if you needed a place to stay in Wall and don't get stuck inside the room for too long, this would be fine.
We want to thank you for staying with us, your business is appreciated. We apologize for any inconvenience with your stay. We do have very soft water in Wall, nothing is added to the water. Glad you enjoyed the pool and breakfast. We will use your review to help us serve our future guests. Have a great day and we wish you safe travels.
We checked-in and even unpacked, but did not end up staying the night. The room had a musty smell to it. The 2nd bedroom had a noisy a/c unit and no windows. I guess the room was clean, but it was old and just didn't "feel" clean. The kids swam in the pool. No shade at all on the pool deck. The staff was friendly. There was a nice area in the back for dogs. Wasn't very impressed at all with Wall, SD to be honest.
I am so sorry to hear you did not like your accommodations. We will make sure and check into all our concerns. ' Once again, we apologize for any inconvenience.
This property was just ok, and the most expensive of our trip – in the off-season no less. The room was fairly large, but there was only one easy chair in a double room. The lighting was decent – enough lights so we could read. There was adequate space for toiletries in the bathroom, but not enough towel bars/hooks. Water pressure was ok, but the temperature kept alternating between hot and cold water – it wasn't consistent. We had specifically requested not to be on the ground floor, but that's what we got. So, we were awakened very early every morning by the people above us walking around – it sounded like a herd of elephants. Staff was a mixed bag. Some of the staff was not particularly friendly or helpful, just doing a job, while others were very friendly and helpful. It's in a good location near the entrance to Badlands National Park. Breakfast was very bare bones and they didn't seem to restock it; when items were gone, that was it, and we never saw anyone cleaning the breakfast room up. The room was too hot – we had to set the thermostat to 60˚ to get it cool enough for comfortable sleep. And the A/C blew right on the bed, which was awful. There was no good place to sit outside in the nice weather. We finally sat on some hard benches in the dog walking area; they could do better than that. There were no USB ports in the room. We got notes from housekeeping every day – clearly a bid for tips. We might or might not return here if we came back to the area.
We want to apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. We are in the busy season this time of year. The front desk should have been able to accommodate your request of an upstairs room. Your review will help us to deliver a better performance for future guests. Have a great day and safe travels.
The best western was nice nothing wow it was a place to sleep. Breakfast was so so, not much food selections. Pancake machine was very crowded and need to have batter added a few times. A place with this many families should have a few pancake machines running. Breakfast was at 630 am wish it opened 530am seeing we wanted to get going early to see the parks animals before it became too hot. was 106 degrees when we were there. It nice and clean that about it.
We apologize for not exceeding your expectations. Your business and review are appreciated, we will use your feedback to help us deliver a good experience for all guests. Have a great day! Safe Travels
Nice, quiet, family ran Parking is tight with a large vehicle Staff is super helpful and very polite Rooms were clean, breakfast Wall is a small town, rolls up the sidewalks around 10 Night reception was very helpful as we were rolling inlate
Look elsewhere....it was rough and overpriced. The location seems convenient but I would rather have a less convenient location with cleaner more updates facilities.
We are so sorry to hear you did not enjoy your stay with us. We apologize for any inconvenience that may have occurred during your stay and hope we can use your comments to better our service
My friend and I stayed three nights. The room was spacious, very clean, and everyone we interacted with was very friendly, helpful, and professional. These days, I very much appreciate when breakfasts are included in the rates. The only thing that I was disappointed about was the pool. The outdoor pool looked anything but inviting :/
We want to thank you for choosing to stay with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. Your business is greatly appreciated.
This is a rather bland, basic property. All rooms open to the parking lot and there is no elevator, only stairs. We are on the second floor. Our room is a double double (two double beds). The room inside is quite regular with two double beds a single bed table between the beds, a writing table/chair, a credenza and a side chair for an easy chair. Fine, but pretty plain. The breakfast was regular chain hotel food - scrambled eggs, sausage patties and links, oatmeal, pastries, coffee and OJ. Since there was little available space in their breakfast area, we sat by the pool in a large table overlooking the street. Not impressed with the place. But fine for an overnight stay.
I am so sorry to hear you did not enjoy your stay with us. We pride ourselves on customer service and cleanliness and we hope those were up to your standards. Once again, we apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced and hope you can give us suggestions to better others stay with us
We travel to the Badlands a lot! A few times a year. Sometimes for work, sometimes for pleasure.....but we always stay here for a night or two while in the area. Clean, comfy rooms, decent breakfast (when we can make it there!) and nice friendly staff!
Your business is very important to us, thank you for staying with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. Have a good day and safe travels.
This family-owned and operated motel was a welcome surprise! A personal note from the family along with a hand-written note from the maid service was a nice welcome. Clean, modern rooms and attentive staff. It's about a 5-block walk to Wall Drug so easily done on a nice sunny day. It's a safe area and so easy to find as it's immediately off the interstate. I'm glad I chose to spend the extra $10 over the other places I looked. There are other options, but definitely none better than here, in my opinion. Come see the Badlands and then relax in comfort!
We want to personally thank you for choosing to stay with us. Your business and detailed review truly do mean a lot to us. It is great to hear you enjoyed your time traveling the area. Have a wonderful day and safe travels!
The place is very clean and well kept. The complimentary breakfast was delicious and well stocked. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. Plenty of parking and easy access off/on freeway. I would definitely stay here again and recommend this place.
Thank you for choosing Best Western Plains Motel for your stay and for the great review. Have a good day.
This was our first stay here and we loved it. We had the 3 queen suite and it was nice to each have our own bed. The pool and especially the hot tub was nice as well as the breakfast each morning. The staff cleaned our room each night per our request and went above and beyond. Everyone was so very helpful and kind and we would stay here again if we come to the area. It's actually better than some of the higher end hotels we have stayed at because of all the amenities, the room and the price. We couldn't have asked for any more. Definitely book here if you are coming to the Badlands and other attractions.
Cindy We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us. Your business and kind words mean a lot to us. We hope to see you again in the future. Wishing you a safe return home. Have a great day!!
This is a family-owned and operated hotel. The owners are experienced and understand the value of customer service. From the professionalism of the front desk staff, the well-maintained property and the clean rooms, you will not find a better value for twice the money anywhere. Stay here and you will be satisfied. Enjoy the Badlands and the spectacular vistas in the area. Skip Main Street. It is the epitome of tourist traps.
Thank you so much for staying with us. We really appreciate your business and your kind review. Come back and see us again sometime. Have a great day and safe travels!!
The hotel is more or less what you would expect. The rooms are well-eauipped and clean and the beds are comfortable. We had two issues: Not really the fault of the hotel, but there was some form of perty going on nearby till gone three in the morning. Other guests were complaining about this to, but the hotel didn't really seem to care. It's a very poor brewakfast service. Not al lot of choice, and a very small breakfast area. most people had to find seating outside - eithe next to the heavily chlorinated pool, or in the parking lot. Shame!
We want to apologize for the inconvenience caused to you. I am glad to hear that the room was clean and the bed was comfortable. We are very sorry that someone was making noise till that late in the morning. This is something we take seriously and would have been happy to help take care of. Did you happen to make any of our workers or front desk aware of these issues while you were on property? I asked them and we don't have any record of a complaint. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to call our office. We hope you enjoyed your time in South Dakota. Have a great day.
This is a extremely nice comfortable drive for my journey. The owners have made the experience in check-in, parking, and breakfast; all easy, convenient, and memorable. The staff is generous with their time as I required and such a pleasure to talk with.
We are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay with us. We strive to make it a great experience for you. We hope to see you again soon. Tell our friends about the friendly town of Wall
Do not trust the pictures on line This place is a dump Feels dirty, we had flies in our room, very out dated Old furnishings, very noisy The refrigerator made load noises all night dark, inside and out Do not be fooled by the online photos like we were, this place is nothing like it pretents to be DO NOT STAY HERE
We would like to apologize for the inconvenience caused to you. This is not up to our standard. We have consistently been in the top percentage on our housekeeping inspections. We will look into each issue you mentioned in your review so that we can provide a better result to incoming guests. We do have staff available to help at all times and we are willing to help. If I can be of any assistance at all please call our office and ask for me.
We had an accessible room one night in Wall. The motel is standard 1960s. No elevator. Room door opens immediately to the outside. Our room had a resident fly I kept trying to swat to no avail. Bed seemed rather hard. Check in and out was fast and efficient. Has both indoor and outdoor pool. Staff at check-in was OK. Staff at checkout was outstanding. .
Thank you for staying with us. Thank you as well for the feedback on our property. We will use it to improve our overall guest experience. We wish you a great day.
The indoor pool was clean and well maintained with the hot tub an exceptional experience. Breakfast had a great selection and the quality excellent. There is a pancake machine that makes two pancakes at a time. We love this convenient option. All the staff were friendly and helpful and the housekeeping had done an excellent job. The toilet was low height and difficult to get on and off. The bedding and towels were unscented. Loved the fact they were clean and no heavy unpleasant perfumes were used to mask unclean items. The front door was hard to open and shut. The room was exceptionally clean and roomy.
Thank you for staying with us. Thank you for your feedback. We hope to see you again.
Very nice motel. Easy access from I-90 and the Badlands National Park. Close to gas station. Easy walk to downtown restaurants and Wall Drug. Exterior was clean. Room was clean, beds were comfortable and our room was very quiet although near the stairs. Standard complimentary breakfast. Hit tub and pool (closed now) and pet area. It locally owned. It's open year round. We've stayed before and would plan to stay again.
We want to thank you for choosing to stay with us. Your business and review are greatly appreciated. Thank you for being continuing customers. One note, our motel does close during the winter season. Have a great day and safe travels.
Great location, very nice people working there. Quiet. Very walkable to all amenities in town. Good breakfasts. Good pricing. A desk where one could put both chairs and eat a meal brought in. Low sink counters but that's livable. If you visit the Badlands, you can run up to Conoco nearby and wash your car!
We really appreciate your business and positive review. Our team works hard to deliver a great experience for all guests. Come back and see us again sometime. Safe Travels!
A nice clean hotel. Parking was good with nice wide spaces. Indoor and outdoor pools were nice but maybe a little cold. Hot tub was nice. Breakfast was OK but the same both days. Typical hotel breakfast. Ren was super to deal with from my initial phone call to checkout! The young lady that checked us in was great too! A little expensive for what you get but I would not hesitate to stay there again!
Thank you for choosing Best Western Plains Motel for your stay. Have a good day.
The man taking care of the breakfast was the nicest man, bringing coffee around, opening the door, just overall nice guy. The dog relief area was second to none. The room was set up nicely, with the sink outside the toilet area, which we always prefer. Overall a very pleasant experience.
Thank you for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again.
Perfect location when visiting The Badlands. It was an older hotel, but very clean, nice pool and hot tub, and good breakfast. All of the staff was extremely pleasant and helpful. It was close enough for an early morning hike and still be able to return for a shower afterward since checkout is 11 a.m.
Thank you for your positive review Bernie. Have a good day.
When we pulled up I was not sure what to think. Had a previous bad experience with a hotel that has rooms where you enter from the outside. This place was great. Room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast buffet was always stocked and the team was very friendly.
We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us! We want to thank you for your business and your positive review. Come back and see us again sometime! Safe Travels
Bathtub is slippery with no grab bars or a place to rest your soap or shampoo. It is located near pinnacle entrance to Badlands NP and is an older style Best Western motel with outside room entry. It was adequate for our short stay. A bright spot was the attendant in the breakfast area. He was cheerful and we liked talking with him.
We want to apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. I will have our maintenance team take a look at the bathtub to fix any issues. I am glad you enjoyed visiting with David at breakfast. Hopefully you enjoyed the Badlands NP. Have a great day and safe travels!
This is a family owned property and the staff treat the guests like family. The day before my stay started I fractured my tibia and fibula. The hospital reduced the fractures and sent me away in a soft splint with crutches. The staff did everything they could to be accommodating to me and to make my stay as comfortable as possible. They moved me to an accessible room seamlessly moving my luggage for me. Whenever I called the office and told them my room number they knew who I was. Whenever they saw me out of the room they inquired as to how I was doing. I had to leave early for my doctor's appointment with my surgeon and there was no charge for the early departure. Many companies would say policy is policy. Of course my circumstances were exceptional and I stood out like a sore thumb, but that is the way they treat people. Everyone else in my group had the same warm feelings. If you want the personal touch this is the hotel for you
Thank you for staying with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. We all send healing wishes for you and good luck. Have a good day.
Room was clean except bathroom floor tile grout was discolored from grime/dirt. Breakfast was excellent. Bathroom was very small and toilet was made for children. Lots of flies in the room and not from us leaving a door open. Daylight could be seen around the perimeter of door.
We want to apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. We appreciate your business and your review. We will look into the issues that you described and get them fixed as soon as possible. Thank you for staying and we hope you enjoyed your time is South Dakota. Safe Travels!
This is a complex that was bought by a family in the 1970's and still owed by that family. You can ssooooo tell the difference between it and your typical hotel. From the check in clerk who was so kind and efficient to the check out clerk whose tag said Team Mom. First of all, they have a very nice outdoor pool with pool towels and lounge chairs. Secondly, the breakfast was above and beyond what you'd expect. Yes the offerings are pretty typical but they make it special. The gentleman had to ready to open before 6:30 and welcomed us in. He was busy the whole time but still had time to bring coffee refills around. (Unheard of at a continental breakfast) The second day, he did the same thing so it wasn't a fluke. There was also a staff member that came by and offered to remove our used plates. WOW. You people know how to make your guest feel special. If you're in the area, stop in at Best Western Plains Motel. You won't regret it!!!!!
Thank you for staying with us. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We hope to see you again.
Family of 5 including 3 kids 6-11yrs, convenient and comfy hub for exploring Badlands and Wall for 5 nights. Best Western did not have any connecting rooms -- nor did any hotel in Wall that I could find in Aug-24 -- so we booked two separate rooms. I called to make a reservation and the rep was very patient and helpful. She confirmed we would get two rooms next two each other and even let me choose which floor I wanted. When we showed up -- 1hr before check-in time -- both rooms were ready and exactly as described: two queens in each, small but clean bathrooms, sitting area that allowed us to spread out. Indoor pool and hot tub + outdoor pool, big hit with the kids after hot hikes in Badlands NP (and on a rainy day); I didn't find another hotel in Wall with indoor and outdoor options. Free breakfast was perfectly adequate, and friendly service kept items refilled until the end. Location is ideal for walking to everything in Wall and driving to any spot in the Badlands.
We are so glad you enjoyed your stay with us. Thanks for staying with us. We hope to see you again.
Super friendly staff, clean rooms, convenient location, adequate breakfast choices, and the best motel coffee I have tasted. This is an older motel with outdoor corridors. The grounds are well-kept. The housekeeping staff are certainly the best I've experienced at any hotel. I would stay here again.
We want to thank you for choosing to stay with us. Your business and review are greatly appreciated. Hope to see you again soon. Safe Travels!!
The very best staff I have ever seen...60+ stays per year. Great breakfast, room, grounds. Ownership family is on the grounds constantly, helping out and tending to every detail.. The employees are engaged actively, and act as though they are owners, too.
We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We hope to see you again.
An old hotel/motel close to the Badlands National Park. While furniture and appliances are dated, they were clean and in good working order. Quick check-in , low noise levels. We did not do breakfast (included) because they had a large bus crowd ( they told about this at check-in which was appreciated).Just walked a couple of blocks away to a small espresso bar. The BW is central to Wall, and a 10 minutes walk to the “world famous” Wall Drug stores.
We want to thank you for choosing to stay with us. We greatly appreciate your business and review. Wishing you a great vacation and safe travels!!
We only stayed one night to get a jump start on a morning visit to The Badlands on our way home. It was the quietest motel I've ever stayed in. Room had a bit of a musty smell, but beds were comfortable, room was clean and breakfast was plentiful. The staff at breakfast were very helpful and quick to clean up and the desk staff was friendly and kind.
Thank you for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again.
This is a fantastic hotel and we really enjoyed the family & staff that run it,!! We,'d definitely go back. The rooms are a great size and overall not a bad price. We stayed for 2 days and would loved to have stayed for 1 more at least!! The beds were comfortable and they have a wonderful place to take your furry friend.
We want to thank you for choosing to stay with us, your business is greatly appreciated. Hearing your feedback really makes our team proud of the hard work that goes into our operation. Come back and see us again soon. Safe Travels!!
This is a very old Best Western run independently. It is one of those drive up and park outside your door. We liked that feature for unloading. Eventhough it is very old, The owners really made a great effort to spruce it up. The rooms were clean and beds comfy. In the morning, there was a nice hot breakfast and employees were walking around making sure everyone was getting enough to eat. We would stay again if we were passing through.
Thank you for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again.
During our road trip in South Dakota, we stayed overnight in Wall, since it was located so close to Badlands National Park. Good decision. We chose Best Western Plains Hotel because of Trip Advisor reviews—outstanding choice. Not only was our room clean and comfortable, but seldom have we received such warm customer service. It's clear that this 4th-generation family-owned business cares about their staff and guests. See the attached letter that was in our room. When we checked out, the receptionist praised the owners. She said that the staff is treated like family. It shows.
We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We thank you for your patronage and hope to see you again.
Very friendly staff, very clean hotel. The indoor and outdoor pools were a hit for my kids. Great location- we were in this area for Badlands National Park and there was an entrance 10 min. from the hotel. Also within walking distance of Wall Drug.
Thank you for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again.
The online pictures oversell the property, but it's fine. Nothing special, nothing negative, just fine. About what you would expect for a Best Western near a National Park without much else going on in the area. The room was plain, clean, and comfortable. The breakfast was a notch below what I have come to expect as the standard. The combination indoor and outdoor pool was notable. The location was conenvient to area attractions and access.
Thank you for staying with us. Your feedback is important to us and will be used to improve our guest experience. Have a great day.
Our stay here was EXCEPTIONAL!! The rooms were clean and well maintained. The staff was friendly and helpful - the best customer service I've ever experienced while traveling. Very family oriented. We highly recommend this hotel - if we could we'd give them 10+ stars!
We want to thank you for choosing to stay with us! We really appreciate your business and your kind review. It really makes us happy hearing comments like yours. Come back and see us again sometime! Safe Travels!!
We arrived very late when the front desk was already closed. However, the hotel manager was there within minutes. Hotel had the expected BW quality and service. Great starting Point to visit Badlands NP. Would stay there again with my family.
We appreciate your business and your kind review. Looking forward to having you come visit us again. Safe Travels!
Stayed here for a quick overnight. We had no problems with this hotel. Beds were clean and comfortable. Shower was very clean. Breakfast was good, eggs a little dry but average overall selection / standard fare - hot sausage/biscuits/gravy/pancake machine :) /yogurt/etc. We sat in the outdoor seating area which we enjoyed. Has a nice pool and hot tub. Unfortunately it was cold/late when we arrive and left early so didn't get to try either. Overall a very pleasant stay and would not hesitate to stay here again.
Thank you for your patronage. We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We hope to see you again.
The staff were friendly and gave us free drink tickets to some local restaurants. The room was clean, comfy, and spacious. TV was actually modern and you could stream from your phone. The pools are nice- there's an indoor, outdoor, and spa. Breakfast was pretty good, too.
We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We hope to see you again.
We loved that this property is family owned and operated. It really showed in their attention to detail and incredibly friendly and helpful staff. We received a cold water bottle and mint on arrival - a nice extra touch. The rooms are reasonably priced for the area. Rooms and common areas are clean and consistent with what you would expect at a Best Western.
Thank you for choosing Best Western Plains Motel for your stay Vicki and for the great review. Have a good day, hope to see you in the future.
Absolutely excellent stay. Nice pools, great breakfast, friendly staff, clean and comfortable room. Very happy we stayed here while in Wall.
It makes us proud to hear such positive reviews like yours. We appreciate your business and wish you safe travels. Come back and see us again sometime! Thank you!!
Tried for lodging in Badlands NP but it was full. Wall is the closest city. Hadn't stayed in a Best Western in a long time but it was clean, quiet, and the beds were comfortable. Management was friendly and present during breakfast to make sure tables were cleaned, food was replenished and coffee cups refilled. Only complaint is shower water temperature can change dramatically from hot to cold. Walking distance to restaurants and shops. Recommend if you are in Wall.
We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We hope to see you again.
This is an older property. Grounds are nice. Too bad smoking is allowed near the front door. Our room was adequate, except the safety latch on the door was broken. The server at breakfast was attentive, upbeat and engaging. He even made us pancakes with the automatic machine. We stayed in this town because of the Wall Drug Store attraction. What a joke! And it was creepy to boot!
Thank you for staying with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel in Wall, SD. I will take your complaints to management. Have a good day.
We chose the Best Western in Wall and were very happy with our selection. We reserved the family suite, which had two Queens in one separate area (behind pocket doors) and one Queen in another - it was perfect for our family with two teens. The room was standard Best Western fare, but was very clean and well maintained. We would recommend this hotel to anyone traveling through Wall.
Thank you for staying with us in Wall. We appreciate your business and hope you travel our way again soon.
I can't say enough about every single employee that we came across. Our original flight was cancelled, and our new flight lost our luggage. We didn't arrive at the hotel until after midnight. I have never had so many nice people all at one hotel that helped us in any way possible for the 2 days that we were there without our luggage. Every single employee was so friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this hotel to everyone. We were visiting the Badlands and the hotel was very close to it.
Thank you for staying with us. We are glad we could make your stay comfortable and be of service to you. We hope to see you again.
BW was a great place to stay on our way to Yellowstone. Walk is a sweet community and had everything we need. The BW was clean and had amazing staff who took good care of us.
Thank you for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again.
The room was very large and comfortable. Everything was very clean. The bathroom was sparkling! Would definitely stay again.
We are excited to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us! Your business and kind review are greatly appreciated. Come back and see us again soon! Safe Travels!!
There aren't a lot of choices if you want to stay close to the Badlands. This is a motel style building. We requested a ground floor as we couldn't navigate stairs. They accommodated our request and we were able to park in front of our room and unload luggage. It was a big plus. Parking is free. It was quiet. The rooms are big but dark. They could use a refresh. Don't like the toiletries they provide. But we had our own. Beds were comfortable. Room clean. Breakfast was good and the young man working the breakfast area was excellent. Pleasant and beyond helpful. Location is perfect for Badlands visit and Wall Drug is very close.
We want to thank you for choosing to stay with us. Your business is greatly appreciated and we will use your review to help us ensure a positive stay for all of our guests. I will let David know you enjoyed his efforts in the breakfast area. Have a great trip! Safe Travels!!
Clean and comfortable motel (not a hotel). Outside entrances to each room. Small pools and hot tub. Decent breakfast with variety. Very convenient location and can walk to Wall Drug which seems to be the whole downtown area of this little town. Expensive for a motel but considering it's right near Badlands National Park that's typical.
Thank you for choosing Best Western Plains Motel for your stay and for your positive response.
My second stay at this Best Western and when I return to Wall SD I'll be staying here again. Very clean and well maintained property. Great staff that is polite and helpful for any of your needs.
Your business and generous review are greatly appreciated. We hope you will come back and see us again soon. Safe Travels!!
Great place. Comfortable with easy in/out parking which was nice being on the ground floor and backing right up to our room to load and unload. Good size room and very clean. It is an older building with small shower/toilet room as well as an older smell to the room. Not intolerable but acutely noticeable. Yummy breakfast and great pool in and out door as well as a hot tub all again very clean.
Thank you for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We will also use your feedback to improve our customer experience. We hope to see you again.
the check in staff were semi nice- the room was a bit dingy - we had a late night out at the observatory - got back around 1am and no parking - the food was good - the breakfast staff did a good job of keeping the food stocked and were nice but would i stay here again? no
Thank you for staying with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. Have a good day.
Get a good rest while on the road and enjoy a well-supplied breakfast to start your day. "busy beaver" workers help make breakfast even more enjoyable
thank you for your kindwords and for choosing Best Western. We hope you have safe travels and come see us again soon.
Awesome motel. On the same road as one of the park entrances to Badlands NP. Staff went more than out of their way to help us when we got a flat tire. They turned what could have been a catastrophe into a mere bump in the road. Very comfortable beds/pillows and clean rooms. Can not recommend this place enough!
Thank you so much for stayng with us in all We appreciate yor business and are happy to hear everything turned out great.
Check in was painless and the staff was pleasant. The location was excellent. The room was clean and breakfast was good.
We greatly appreciate your business and your awesome review. We want to wish you safe travels on your journey. Come back and see us again sometime! Thank you!!
Enjoyed the easy access to room especially when traveling with an elderly person. Guest services were very accommodating.
We appreciate your business and your kind words. We will let our team know you enjoyed your stay. Safe Travels!
Not an awful stay but the rooms are very dark even with every light on. There is no elevator so be aware and require a ground floor room when you make the reservation if you cannot navigate stairs with your luggage
Your business is greatly appreciated. Someone is on call everyday that is available to help with luggage in the event you have a 2nd floor room. We apologize that the room wasn't bright enough, this will be looked into. Travel safe!
Very clean quiet hotel. Would definitely stay again. Staff was friendly and check in and out was easy.
We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We hope to see you again.
Family run business. Very friendly service and exceeded my expectations. The owner shoveled snow BETWEEN cars where you have to step to get in and out of your car. That was at 6 a.m. You won't get that with the major chains.
We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. Thank you for your business and have a great day.
Stopped by at 9 pm on March 14 with no reservation and got the last room. The front desk person was so friendly, wish I could mention her by name! The room was clean and conveniently located. The free breakfast was one of the best we have had in our travels; lots of options and enough seating. Very happy with our stay!
Thank you for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay.
The people were so nice, we thought we were in a movie! It's a family owned motel and they obviously take pride in their work Apparently the only motel in Wall with a pool. Clean room, clean pool, nice breakfast, a “treasure chest” for the kids to get a prize. Highly recommended!
We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We hope to see you again.
The people, place, and amenities were all great here. It was clean, comfortable, and the dog area was top notch. All the staff we in countered during our stay were so friendly. And the breakfast had great choices. We will stay here again when we are back in the area.
Thank you for your positive review and for staying with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. Please stay with us in the future, we do appreciate you. Have a good day.
Very clean, comfortable comfy and great location. Great breakfast! Walkable to the famous Wall Drug, shopping and restaurants. Near the highway for easy access. Staff was nice. Would recommend this property to anyone.
Thank you for your positive response Pamela and for staying with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. Have a good day.
We found this hotel be very comfortable. It was very clean, quiet and convenient to sites we wanted to see. The beds where very comfortable. We where able to check in early which was great. The breakfast was delicious and had a variety of choices. We definitely recommend this hotel.
Thank you for choosing to stay with us. Your business and kind review are greatly appreciated. We hope you enjoyed your time in Wall, SD. Come back and see us again sometime. Safe Travels!!
We spent a night here while visiting the Badlands National Park. The staff at the hotel are great! They take pride in their work and go out of their way to help. Our room was comfortable and clean, although a bit worn. Each room opens to the outside and we ended up swatting mosquitoes that snuck in while we moved into the room. The room included a table and chairs which was great for snacks and games. The sink is outside the bathroom, which was useful for multiple people getting ready in the morning. Breakfast was standard fare, with enough variety to satisfy everyone. This is a good spot to stay while visiting the Badlands.
We want to thank you for choosing to stay with us! We appreciate your business and your kind review. It is important to us that our guests enjoy their stay. Hopefully you enjoyed the Badlands. Come to see us again sometime. Safe Travels!
Awesome place to stay! I highly recommend it! Friendly and courteous staff, Delicious continental breakfast! Clean and well stocked rooms. Comfortable beds. Great parking area. Great amenities Worth stopping here. Family friendly. Great for disabled access too.
Thank you for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We hope to see you again.
What a pleasant surprise to arrive at this motel and be greeted by Ren, a sweet, kind and caring Front Desk Representative. Her joy was contagious. We stopped here on our way to the Badlands and I'm so glad we did. The room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was very good. All employees were friendly and appeared to be enjoying their job. This motel has been family owned and operated since 1978. They treat their associates and guests like family. I highly recommend this Best Western!
We want to thank you for choosing to stay with us! Your business and kind review are greatly appreciated. We wish you safe travels! Come back and see us again. Lex - Owner
We love this place! The rooms are spotless clean, quiet and very comfortable. The customer service is among the best in the business: friendly, efficient, thorough and very helpful. They genuinely want to you enjoy your stay with and your visit to Wall, S.D. We did! This is a family-owned and operated hotel. Their pride in the place and concern for customer satisfaction is very evident will continue to be that way for generations to come. This is how hotels were meant to be and are supposed to be. A rare find this days but you can find it here. A special thanks to Irvin for his great customer care for a couple of road weary travelers!
Thank you for staying with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel, we do appreciate your business. Have a good day.
This is one of the best Best Western Hotels! It is in a great location - only 9 miles from Badlands National Park entrance, walking distance to restaurants, nearby grocery store and just off the highway. The staff is wonderful, hotel very clean, very good breakfast. Ren at front desk helpful and very nice. Odie the housekeeper left a beautiful towel arrangement in our room on check in which was a really nice touch - thank you! Gentleman taking care of breakfast was friendly and attentive. Keep up the good work! Great value, and location.
Thank you for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again.
This is an older facility, but it was clean and well maintained. For instance the rug in our room was relatively new or recently cleaned. The staff was very pleasant. Convenient to the Sage Creak section of Badlands. Within walking distance of several restaurants in Wall
Thank you for your positive response and for staying with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. Have a good day.
I travelled with my three dogs. They were great with finding me a king sized bed room near the pet area. The pet area is very impressive! Well lit, green grass, pet waste disposal bags available and they washed down the area at least once a day to keep on fresh.
We are happy to hear that you had a positive experience with us. Your business and kind review are greatly appreciated. Come see us again sometime! Safe Travels!!!
There was confusion with our reservation, but the owner listened and rectified the situation. We appreciate that he obviously cares about his customers. We would stay here again and would recommend it to our friends. We required an accessible room and were very pleased with the room. The hotel is clean and comfortable. The staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful. If you are trying to decide where to stay on Wall, stay here!
We want to thank you for staying with us. Your kind business and kind review are appreciated. Taking care of our guests is our number one priority. We hope you have safe travels. Come see us again sometime! Lex Owner
Stayed 2 nights to explore the Badlands area. This property is one of the nicest motels I have ever stayed in, and I travel a lot. The room, staff, pools, and breakfast were all great. The quirky Wall Drug store is a short walk away, and the entrance to Badlands National Park is just on the other side of the I 90. Several dining options are also within walking distance.
Thank you for choosing Best Western and staying with us in Wall. We appreciate your business and are happy to hear you had a good time.
Stayed at this hotel at the start of our South Dakota week due to it being close the Badlands National Park and the famous Wall Drug Storeound an itinerary on line the person recommended this hotel. It does have outside entrances and the second floor is accessed by outside stairs. We were in room 268. Check in was handled by Irwin at the Front Desk who was very hospitable. He did well to thank us for being part of the Best Western guest program. He explained the location and times of breakfast and the location of our rooms, he gave us the password for the internet which worked great throughout the property. Our guest room was nice and clean and we enjoyed the short note from our room attendant Mario. TV had multiple channels. I didn't like the tub shower but understand this is costly. The bed was very comfortable. There is a microwave and mini fridge. I put a couple waters and a coke in the fridge, the next morning they were all frozen. Maintenance needs to check the temp. Breakfast buffet was very nice and included a pancake machine, I love pancakes so I really enjoyed that. Biscuits, gravy, scrambled eggs, sausage, donuts, apple fritters, fruit, yogurts, juice and coffee. The breakfast attendant was David who had a warm smile and was very friendly. I met the mother of the owner in the parking lot and enjoyed a nice conversation with her regarding the hospitality of her staff. If your travels bring you to Wall, South Dakota, we highly recommend this Best Western hotel.
We had been gone for two weeks stayed in 13 hotels. My husband said this was the best bed he had slept in great location within walking distance of wall drugs, and restaurants. Breakfast area was very nice. Ren at the front. desk was very nice. Helping us with restaurant options. What a great employee
This hotel is what I would call a motel layout. No inside hallways. Outside door entrances.Two stories, no elevators. No problem getting a first floor room. Room 211 (ground floor) was in excellent shape. Can see that they have made upgrade touches over time. Comfortable beds. Nightstands with lamps and outlets. Desk with lamp and outlets. Carpets in good shape. Good size refrigerator. Had good shower heads in the bathtubs rather than the cheapo ones. Breakfast is like most others but made better by friendly and attentive staff. Driveways, walkways, clean....just a well kept place. Wifi was not the best but we were able to stream some things. Happy that we stayed here.
On behalf of our team, we want to thank you for your business. We appreciate your kind review, and we are glad you chose to stay with us. Come see us again sometime. Safe Travels!!
Good location for exploring nearby Badlands NP, and the overload of Wall Drug, this Best Western had clean rooms, comfortable beds, and a hard-working and friendly staff. Full breakfast was a plus, and a staff member came to every table and spoke to every guest about their experience. Some great (pre-Covid level) customer service from the owners and staff. Highly recommended in a fairly remote locale.
Thank you for staying with us in Wall, SD We appreciate your business and are so happy to hear that you had a great stay with us. We hope to see you again soon.
This is our second time staying here on a cross country trip, and it's still great! I love how this place never changes, in a good way. It gives me nostalgic feelings of roadside motels from when I was a kid, but it's nicer and more comfortable. Pride of ownership is evident here. Everything is clean and extremely well maintained. The breakfast is much better than average. All of the staff are helpful, efficient, and they seem to work together well. Our room was quiet even with cars parked out front and we slept well.
Thank you so much for coming back to stay with us again. We are happy to hear that everything was satisfactory during your stay with us. We do take pride in our business and are happy to see it was evident during your stay.
Our room was immaculate, clean linens, surfaces, everything in it was in perfect working order. It even smelled quite nice! They gave us plenty of towels for both the sink and shower. Check in and check out were easy and straightforward, with helpful staff. There were also a lot of good food and beverage options at the continental breakfast! Overall excellent stay, I felt the price point for our amount of beds and quality of stay was more than fair. Enjoyed our stay and definitely will stay there again if in Wall again!
Thank you for staying with us. We are so happy to hear you enjoyed your time with us. We hope to see you again in Wall and tell our friends about our friendly little town and motel.
Don't stay in Wall! It's a gross cheesy town! Stay in Deadwood or some other town on western side of park instead. Hotel was very dated, dark, walls very thin, and a zoo of families at pool and breakfast.
We are so sorry to hear you did not enjoy your stay in Wall. We apologize for any inconvenience that you had incurred.
Front desk very responsive to check in issue. Good mattress; pillows OK. Housekeeping missed some routine steps and some room equipment was broken or hard to work. Breakfast food typically poor as in (all?) other mid-range US hotels, though coffee was OK.
We appreciate your business, and your feedback is important to us. We will use your feedback to provide our guests with a positive experience in the future. We will make sure to visit with housekeeping to make sure we don't miss anything. Have a great day!
Stopped here for a night on the drive back home from Wyoming. Very close to wall drug and the badlands and right off the freeway Very spacious room with a great size table, hutch/closet,bedside table (one) no usb but plug ins and lamps, fridge and microwave Beds and pillows were comfortable, though just a small thin blanket which I always bring a blanket so it was fine. Indoor and outdoor pool which my husband and son said was too cold (I thought it was heated) also a small hot tub. Breakfast was sufficient, did have hot items which is always a plus. Plenty of towels, bathroom was a little small but no big deal. Had some food items in the main building and popcorn Was able to park right in front of our room Tv worked great and good selection of channels. Slept great. Double check as our windows were unlocked which we did not notice until bed time, not a huge deal (just have history of someone breaking in through a window at an apartment) Only con was a musty smell
On behalf of our team, we thank you for your business. We hope that you will choose to stay with us again in the future and we will do our best to provide you with a great night stay. Wishing you the best and safe travels.
Family owned best BW I've stayed. It is right at the doorstep of the Badlands and only an hour from Rapid City. We stayed Sturgis weekend and the staff had all hands on deck. The only drawback is parking is tight when busy. Walking distance to Wall drug
Thank you for staying with us as the Best Western in Wall. We appreciate your business and your comments . We hope to see you in the future.
This motel style Best Western is steps from Walk Drug and only a few miles from Badlands National Park. Irvin at check in was friendly and quick. The room was clean, the beds were comfortable and the pool was a welcome amenity. Lovely port in the storm after a day in the hot sun.
We appreciate your business and your review. Wishing you safe travels on your adventures. Come see us again!
Great place to stay at the Badlands. Employees are kind, helpful and dependable. They always have a smile on their face! Must stop on the way to Yellowstone. I wish they could move this to Yellowstone and give people other options other than Xanterra's monopoly. (Horrible stay at Grant Village Lodge at Yellowstone.) I highly recommend Best Western in Wall SD.
Your kind words are appreciated, we will make sure to tell the staff. We are glad you chose to stay with us, and we hope to see you again in the future. Thank you!!
Great place for a night in Wall - Badlands national park area. Two pools - indoor and outdoor.... I had to drag my boys out of there. Pet friendly - little pet area, but it's nice that you don't have to go too far for your dog to get some relief. Typical hotel breakfast. The rooms are nothing special, but they are clean, and the beds are decent. Staff was fantastic - very kind and welcoming.
Thank you for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay here. We hope to see you again.
Stayed 5 nights at BW Plains. Great location, good wifi and very nice staff. Breakfast was fine as a normal BW one is. Parking is a little tight but doable. After we left they called me and said I had left a battery charger in my room and they offered to mail it to my home. That is the reason for the 5 stars.
thank you for staying with us. We appreciate your business and hope your travels bring you our way again sometime soon. Sorry for any inconvenience that you may have had during your stay with us.
We were pleasantly surprised from the moment we arrived. The gentleman at check in was extremely helpful and provided all the information we needed. The property is very well maintained. Both mornings, we saw staff everywhere working hard. Our room was very clean and comfortable. We had everything we needed. Parking was easy and right outside our door. Breakfast was busy, but again staff was working hard and kept everything stocked and clean right down to drying outdoor tables for people to use. Highly recommend this hotel!!!
Rozanne, thank you for your positive response and for staying with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. Have a good day.
I liked that we could park our car right in front of our room on the ground floor. Family owned who were on the premises making sure everything was being attended to. The breakfast was really good. The beds were comfy and the shower was hot! Would definitely stay there again!
We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We hope to see you again.
This was the perfect hotel for our family with kids. Nice rooms, incredibly friendly staff who worked hard to keep everything clean and running smoothly. We liked the little workout room and we all enjoyed the indoor and outdoor pools after a day in the Badlands. Would definitely recommend for a family!
Andrea, thank you for your positive response and for staying with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. Have a good day.
We stayed two nights at the Best Western in Wall, SD. The hotel was nothing really special. It had decent rooms which were clean and enough space to meet our basic needs. The bed wasn't the best but was adequate for a couple of nights. The hotel lacks an elevator which would have been problematic for my parents if I was not able to haul all our luggage up and down the stairs. The breakfast was pretty good overall with a good number of options. The key reason this hotel is a good choice is the location. Several good restaurants and coffee shops are nearby. Badlands National Park is only a few miles greatly reducing travel times on our trip. While I would not say this is a great hotel, I was glad to have stayed just for the convenience.
Thank you for staying with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. We do appreciate you and apologize for the inconvenience. Have a good day.
A nice motel with great updates and very clean rooms and spaces. Awesome to have an outdoor pool and an indoor pool and indoor hot tub. All the pool furniture was in great shape, too. Such nice staff, too! Breakfast had a lot of options. Will stay there again!
On behalf of our team, we want to thank you for choosing to stay with us. Your business and your kind review are appreciated. We hope to see you again in the future. Safe Travels!
We spent 2 nights at BW Plains motel . It was close to The Badlands so location was great. Our room was comfortable and clean. The free breakfast was a plus and includes cereal, yogurt, fruit oatmeal, pastries, eggs, sausage and pancakes. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. A great place to stay!
Thank you for your positive reply and for staying with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. Have a good, safe day.
We stayed here in room 206 on 6/5-6/6/23. The room is divided into two bed rooms separated by a small hallway with your sink and the bath/toilet area is off this area. Both bedrooms have pocket door for privacy. The front room has one bed, a fridge TV, microwave and coffee pot. The rear room had a TV, two beds and armoire wardrobe closet. The rooms were good for one to two people each. The internet was slow, water pressure good. Breakfast is in the pool building complex in the center of the property.. Parking is tight we were unable to park near the room. The front desk staff was very good. There was a restaurant about 2 min. down the road. It's a good choice while visiting Badlands.
Dear guest, We appreciate your business and your choice to stay with us. If there is something we can do in the future to make your stay more comfortable, please let us know. Safe Travels
We stayed here unexpectedly due to a dangerous ice storm in the area. The front desk agent accommodated us quickly and provided a room on ground floor since we were traveling with a pet. Our room was clean & had a handy microwave and refrigerator. The beds were comfortable and the heater was strong and worked well! The free breakfast included hot & tasty coffee, pancakes, yogurt, cereal, and eggs. All the staff were super friendly and helpful which is what makes SD special. Thanks to the staff for making our emergency stay a pleasant one!
Nancy, We are glad to hear that we were able to accommodate you during the storm. Thank you for your kind words and positive review. We hope to see you again sometime in the future. We appreciate your business!!
This property is a hidden gem in a quiet small town only 10 min. to the entrance of Badlands National Park. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and found the rooms to be clean, updated and comfortable. The staff was friendly and helpful. The internet was good and breakfast was nice as well. I would highly recommend and return to this hotel.
Michael, thank you for the great response, we do appreciate you staying with us, hopefully you will come back at a later date. Have a good day.
Stayed here with my dog in October 2022. It's a very nice traditional drive-up motel just off I-90 in Wall, SD. I would 100% stay here again. Room was very nicely prepared and everything was clean and tidy. The breakfast is one of the best I've had a for the self-service model.
Thank you for choosing Best Western and staying with us herein Wall, SD. We appreciate your business and your great comments, We hope you tell your friends about our great little town i Wall.
I wasn't sure what to expect for a motel in small town, but I was very impressed. The kids loved the free popcorn. The 2 room suite with 3 queen beds provided so much space for us to spread out. Location was great for access to Wall Drug and the Badlands. Breakfast was decent. Rooms very clean (and the towel"art" on the bed reminded me of being on a cruise.
We are so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay with us, Tell your friends about our great little town in Wall, SD. We appreciate your business
This was a very nice hotel! Our room was very nice and the housekeeper had made a heart with one of the towels for the bed. There was a nice note from her, also, and a letter from the hotel owners. They seem to really want you to have a good experience. Everyone was super friendly, especially the gentleman in the breakfast area. I would definitely go back.
We are glad to hear you enjoyed your stay with us. Thank you. We hope to see you again.
We stopped here on our way from Indiana to Yellowstone. The motel is an older style, 2-story with external entry. My kids thought that was so neat. The front desk staff was friendly and accommodating. Our room was spacious, clean and quiet! We even had a heart shaped towel on our bed! The pool area was nice and breakfast had a lot of option. We would definitely stay here again if we're in the area!
Thank you for your positive review and for staying with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. Have a good day.
Stopped in Wall, SD overnight to visit Badlands National Park and Wall Drug Store. This hotel is right off the interstate and right down the street from Badlands. It is perfectly located for these sites. The hotel was large and roomy, clean and comfy. The maids even made a heart out of a towel and left it on the end of the bed with a letter from the owner explaining the history of the ownership of the hotel. The breakfast was a typical hotel breakfast. We had the waffles and some fruit. It was only one night but it was a very pleasant stay.
The pool and hot tub were clean and refreshing! The bed was unbelievably comfortable. Breakfast was really good. My only complaint were the blankets being thin but that didn't prevent us from having a great nights sleep!
Thank you for your response, have a good day.
Very nice accommodations, great staff. Rooms were spacious and clean. Pool, exercise and breakfast areas were nice. Within walking distance to stores and Wall Drug. Plus free popcorn! Highly recommend!
We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. Thank you. We hope to see you again.
My wife decided to join me at the last minute. She has mobility issues and when she is with me I ALWAYS get an accessible room. We did not have that this time. But the front desk clerk took great care of my wife helping her safely get in the room.
Thank you for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We were happy to accommodate you and your wife. We hope to see you again.
The BW in Wall, is a great small town hotel, it may not have all the amenities and decor of larger city hotels, but is a nice well maintained, family owned, hotel in western SD, with a great staff. If you are visiting the Badlands National Park and the Minuteman Missile National Site, this is a great choice.
On behalf of our team, we want to thank you for staying with us! We value your business and hope to see you again in the future.
This motel is clean and dog friendly. .3 miles from Wall Drug or the two other restaurants in town. Our room was clean, breakfast was solid with a mix of hot & cold foods & fresh, hot coffee. The breakfast room was clean and spacious. Room was spacious too. We are glad we chose this motel above the others )once we got to town and could compare). Owned and operated by 4 generations of the same family!
Thank you for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your time. We hope to see you again.
I decided the day of that I was going to stay in the area Sunday night over Labor Day weekend. I was able to get a room for a reasonable price. I appreciated the motel style so I could back my car up to my outside door of the room on the first floor (there are2 floors)
Thank you for your recent stay with us. We are happy to hear that everything worked well for you. We hope to see you again soon!
Since there aren't many options in Wall, it served our needs for a night. It's close to Badlands National Park and town. It's an older 2 story with outside stairs. Our room was large but it seemed as if furniture had been removed since there was no place for a second person to sit other than the bed. The room was dark and the bath very small. It seemed clean enough. No place to sit outside except in the parking lot or by pool, but that was always full. Breakfast was eh.. with a side of flies. The person stocking (or trying to stock) breakfast was doing a great job with an impossible task. We turned around and left. One positive was Deb at front desk. Very pleasant with a nice smile and truly seemed delighted we were there. Don't expect a Marriott but it is ok for one night due to its location to the park.
On behalf of our team, we would like to apologize for not exceeding your expectations. We will use your response to help us better serve our guests in the future.
There aren't many options when booking a room in Wall, SD, so we chose Best Western based on their national reputation. It was an older-style two-story hotel with parking in front of your room. The room was clean but damp and had a musty smell. The breakfast bar was adequate but small so lots of people were navigating through the crowd trying to get to the food they wanted.
Thank you for staying with us. We appreciate your business. Sorry for any inconvenience that you experienced as we try to make sure your stay is comfortable. We will work hard to improve our quality of service.
Walking distance to restaurants and shopping. Quick drive to Bad Lands National Park. King room was spacious and met our needs. Breakfast was as expected. 4 stars because the bed was uncomfortable, too firm.
Thank you for staying with us. We hope to see you again.
We enjoyed this hotel. All of the staff we met were very kind and accommodating. This is a family owned hotel. It was very well kept and clean. We had a 2 room family suite. The website says 3 queens but the bed in the single room is a Double so beware if you want a queen bed away from the rest of your family. There were 2 TV's and a small bathroom. The breakfast was ok. The pools were great. The outdoor pool was very clean. The indoor pool is closed from 10-12 daily for cleaning. The front desk staff leaves at 11.
Thank you for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay, and we hope to see you again.
This is a family owned motel. Their beds and pillows are comfortable here. We had a good nice sleep! The breakfast is good with fresh fruit choices. An added bonuses was how close this motel was to the Badlands National Park. We would highly recommend this motel.
Thank you for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again.
If you're road-tripping to the badlands or somewhere close, this is a really great location with a decent price for the area. Pretty standard Motel. The good: Friendly staff, 2 big pools, included breakfast, ok price, walking distance from Wall Drug The bad: Dirty hot tub (clumps of hair were floating everywhere), no USB charging ports in the room, small pillows
Thank you for your response. I will take these matters to management. Thank you for choosing Best Western Plains Motel for your stay. Have a good day.
I believe this is the best place to stay when traveling near Wall, SD area. The lobby staff and workers work really hard to keep everyone happy. Haven't met a more friendly group. Our room was clean but did have a musty smell. Our pull out sofa was ok after we found some clean bedding. My daughter is about 100 pounds and it was just her size. It was not comfortable but it was a place to sleep. We had hot water and clean linens, the most important factors while staying at a hotel. We enjoyed the breakfast, especially the little pancake machine.
Thank you for your positive response, have a goo day.
Stayed here July overnight while visiting badlands. Definitely best choice in Wall. Rooms are clean ,updated. Breakfast was decent. Wall is a little limited and few restaurants to choose so one night was enough. This is the place you want to stay.
Thank you for your positive review and for staying with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. Have a good day.
This motel is in a location where it doesn't have to be all that good. But it is. We travel frequently and this was once of the cleanest motels we have visited. Staff was friendly and accommodating . Rooms are set back from the road and are quiet. I noticed the towels were high quality and softer than at other hotels and motels. As mentioned it's family run. The larger and "more modern" chains could learn a thing or two from this operation. Would visit again.
Thank you for the positive review and for staying with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. Have a good day.
Nice place- would stay again. Room was very clean. Motel was packed probably due to close location to the Badlands National Park, but despite the crowds it was quiet at night. Staff was very friendly. Breakfast was ok- I noticed many places in the West do biscuits and gravy. A few more healthy options would have been nice. Overall, a good place to stay.
Thank you for your positive response and for staying with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. Have a good day.
Great stay, pizza place attached to hotel. The hotel is updated and has multiple sections of seating area in the lobby. One of the best things was Marcos-the pizza place. We didn't even have to leave the building. The beds could be updated, but we still slept pretty good. It was in a safe neighborhood. The hotel was clean and had a great breakfast!
Good afternoon, you have the wrong motel, we are in Wall, SD. I believe you stayed in Rapid City. Please send me an email that states that you rated the wrong motel. Have a good day.
This was our third stay at this motel. We always look forward to staying here when we're passing through! The rooms and public spaces are always very clean and well maintained. The pride this family has in their business really shows! We love the indoor and outdoor pools as well as the hot tub.
Pros: - Staff is professional and friendly - Rooms are spacious - Location is great for exploring the Badlands Cons: - Parking is tight - While room is spacious, bathroom is tiny - Breakfast - main consisted of: cold hard boiled eggs cold biscuits hot sausage/gravy Seemed like an odd combination to me, I think given the choice most people would prefer hot scrambled eggs over cold hard boiled eggs, given the reaction of other guests the day I was there I was not alone in this thinking - Pool There are at least 2 permanently affixed signs stating the pool/fitness area is closed for cleaning daily from 10am to 12pm. My husband tried to use the hot tub at 8am, it was already closed. There was quite a crew of cleaners so I'm sure everything is thoroughly cleaned when finished, which is great. As a guest, I can only go by the posted signs, I wish the hotel would follow the schedule posted. All in all, ok for one night.
Thank you for staying with us. We appreciate your business.
Beautiful, clean, well maintained family owned and it shows! Real wood furniture in rooms, unique decor, great full breakfast. Friendly owners that truly care about their property. At the end of The Badlands, great location. Highly recommend.
We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We hope to see you again.
This was the cleanest Hotel we visited on out 2 week vacation! It was really hot and we loved the outdoor pool! The location was great - an easy walk to Wall Drug and the entrance to the Badlands was at the end of the street! Everyone there was great!
Thank you for your kind words. We hope to see you again soon and we appreciate your business.
We stayed here the night before exploring the Badlands. The hotel is so beautifully maintained--with nice touches in the room. You can tell that the owners really care. Amenities are basic, but the hotel is clean and the free breakfast is good. The hotel is also very close to the attractions in Wall--like the famous drug store, but also a cute coffee stand and other restaurants. You can easily and safely walk to all those locations. Also a quick drive to the Badlands park entrance with lots of great short hikes and close to the lodge, too. Highly recommend staying here.
Thank you for your kind words. We hope to see you again soon.
My wife met a really nice family out in the parking lot while smoking a cigarette who was also from Missouri, and My daughter and I went to the pool and met several families from Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Omaha Nebraska!!! Lol, yes, it was a full house when we stayed on the first weekend of June, but it was a LOT of fun!!! It was like a giant pool party!!! Ok, now the room.....it was SUPER clean, the beds were comfy, there was good water pressure from the shower. The staff was really nice at the front desk. I would most definitely recommend this hotel to others.
We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We hope to see you again.
Very clean motel. Large room, very comfortable bed. Breakfast could use more healthy choices like plain yogurt. Very nice staff. Big TV with a lot of PBS channels, which was surprising and enjoyable. Seems a family run motel with a lot of pride in its operation.
We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We hope to see you again soon.
This was a very short stay for us but we were very impressed by the indoor and outdoor options for swimming. Breakfast was a very nice variety. The room was very clean and the staff was extremely friendly. Parking as close to the room and we will definitely stay here if we are in the area again.
if there full don't expect Internet in half the lot/rooms. Good luck parking if you arrive after Nine pm with a full-size pickup.. Very little seating in the Breakfast area. Family owned very friendly, Nick tired had to remedy out Internet problems didn't come on tell half the lot cleared out in the morning. The rooms are a 3 star with 4 Star+ prices
Hi Roger, we are sorry there were so many issues with your stay. We will take what you have said into consideration and will use the input to better the experience at our hotel.
Family owned and run hotel. Great service from check in to check out. We were on second floor and the reception sent someone to carry our bags up for us. Pools were immaculate and just the right temperature. Stayed 3 nights and saw staff frequently attending to rooms and grounds. Never had so much attention to detail at a chain hotel. Highly recommend.
Thank you for your kind review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay at our hotel. We hope to see you again.
Clean and comfortable rooms, if a bit dated. This is a motel-style property, with easy access from car to first-floor rooms (otherwise, you'll have to navigate steps to second floor). Friendly staff. Decent breakfast. Seemed a bit pricey, but probably worth it versus alternatives.
Thank you for choosing Best Western In Wall. We appreciate your business. We hope to see you again soon.
room smelled smoky but cam with a fridge and microwave which was nice. location for the Badlands was good and no really highend options in Wall. Close to everything the town had to offer. breakfast was better than average for a hotel in this price range.
This hotel was fantastic. The room was large, very clean and the staff was excellent. They have a very nice little dog area in the back that was just perfect and everyone picked up after their dogs. Very clean area for them. Our dog loved it. They have a hot breakfast that looked good but I just got coffee. I love that I could just back in the car and unload right into my room. I would definitely recommend this place. Also just blocks from Wall drug and some restaurants.
There was a lovely note on the table when we got in the room explaining how it was a family-run business, which was particularly touching for some reason. The room was clean. Breakfast was good and clean. There were a few hotels in a cluster, and I'm so glad we chose this one.
We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. Have a great day and we hope to see you again.
This hotel is very close to the Badlands National Park which made us choose it. The staff was very friendly. The first room they gave us smelled strongly of sewage and they moved us with no problem. However, they (to our knowledge) didn't seem to go investigate the smell which was a bit concerning. The second room was clean but very basic. The free breakfast in the morning was okay, the biscuits were cold, and it was a bit cramped. This hotel serves the purpose of a clean place to rest your head for the night but not much more than that.
Thank you for staying with us. We hope to see you again.
This motor is the cleanest, friendliest and probably the safest I have been to. The rooms are not fancy of course but perfectly appointed and well maintained . They have a nice pet area and the best morning coffee. The staff is welcoming and friendly. I travel alone as a woman and I felt completely safe!
Thank you for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your time here. We hope to see you again.
This is a family owned business. Very well taken care of and very clean. The usually great beds, nice rooms. It is older style and all updated. Stairs to second floor rooms. The usually BW breakfast. Which is fine with us. A few blocks for downtown. Walkable if you like walking.
Thank you for your business. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again.
This is a family-owned business since 1970 and I'm pretty sure it hasn't been updated in all that time. The room was dark and cramped with way too much stuff, and smelled overpoweringly like cigarette smoke, like walking into the home of lifelong smoker. They say all the rooms have been non-smoking for years, so my guess is nothing IN the room has been changed since it was a smoking room - carpets, curtains, furniture. I'm sure they would have given me a different room if I'd asked but late after a long drive it seemed like too big a deal. Though ironically, all the lengths I went to to try and keep my own belongings from picking up the smell were probably a bigger deal. I noticed others with their doors cracked too. I also couldn't get the ac/heater to work well, it was either stiflingly hot or freezing cold with only a very thin blanket on the bed. Unfortunately this was my first unpleasant hotel experience in a long, long time.
We are sorry to hear that you had such an unpleasant experience staying at our motel. There have been instances where people have smoked in the rooms, even though we do not allow it. We do everything we can to remove that smell short of gutting the room and starting over again. We once again apologize for the unpleasant experience and welcome you to contact us directly at 605-279-2145 so that we can make this right. Thank you.
Little dated but it's certainly not problematic. Clean, friendly staff, pet friendly, and good breakfast. Near Badlands National Park and of course Wall Drug. Stayed on a Thursday evening and refreshing after the haul from Iowa. Pool and stuff we didn't use.
The staff at the front desk are professional, knowledgeable and helpful. The rooms are very clean, the beds are comfortable. Good food close to the hotel and plenty to do in Wall. I will definitely stay at this Best Western again.
Thanks for choosing Best Western. We appreciate your business.
Our dog wouldn't use the park! We pay extra for having our pet travel with us but others do not clean up pets mess; the motel even provided bags but NO ONE CLEANS IT UP!, We thought the extra pet fee should at least provide an employee to shovel up the waste?
I am sorry that you thought you saw dog waste in the dog park area. What you actually saw was the soil has recently been aerated. When soil is aerated it comes up in little chunks and can be interpreted as dog waste. I assure you we pick up after the dogs if their owners do not pick it up.
We recently stayed at the Best Western in Wall, SD on a Thursday night. We found ourselves in a very strange situation when we arrived at Super 8 across the street to find that it was still "closed for the season". We were on a Spring Break trip to the Black Hills/Badlands area of SD, and we had made the reservation at Super 8 for that particular night about 11 months prior (so planned ahead almost a year!). We had to call the 800 number for Super 8 to get that resolved so that we didn't suddenly get charged for there when we didn't even set foot in the place! Anyway, Best Western was right across the street and appeared to be open, so we gave it a shot. The friendly front desk worker was sympathetic about our situation, and it seemed that Best Western had plenty of rooms available. We easily got a room with 2 queen beds. We were put on the 2nd (top) floor, which was very quiet. Note that a 2nd floor room requires stairs, as there are no elevators, and everything is exterior entrances here. This property seems older, but the room and everything else was still very clean and fresh. We enjoyed the indoor pool and hot tub in a separate building in the parking lot (where breakfast is also located in the morning). Super 8 does not have these amenities, so it was nice to now have a pool and hot tub! I went back and looked at my reservation record for Super 8, and they had us down for $87 to stay the one night, and it was $102 at Best Western, which was slightly higher, but we felt it was worth it for having additional amenities now, as well as still being able to stay in Wall to see the Badlands the next morning! We really felt that Best Western came to the rescue for us in Wall, and we will return on future visits to the area! We got going pretty early the next morning to get started in the Badlands, and it was a quick drive right down the road. This was a nice overnight at the near-end of our weeklong Spring Break trip, and it is a perfect location for the Badlands and Wall Drug! Wall is a very friendly little town!
I am so happy that you were able to stay with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel, in Wall, SD. We are glad that you enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Have a good day and safe travels.
This was a fun hotel in a neat little town. Lots of places to eat downtown and the Wall drug store. This hotel has some age but was clean. The breakfast area was well kept. We had a first floor room and were able to back the car up right in front of the door.
Thank you for your positive response and for staying with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. Have a good day.
My husband and I, along with my father and step-mother were on a road trip, headed out to Yellowstone National Park. We pulled in late after a long day of driving. We were met with fast and friendly check-in. While the lobby and rooms may have been in need of some update, it was all cosmetic. The room was a nice accommodation for a nights sleep. The area, while also looked outdated, appeared safe. We did not utilize the pool, however, the hotel was set up in a horseshoe shape the surrounded the pool building so all rooms had quick access to the amenity. If you plan to sleep in, this may not be the spot as it certainly appeared everyone was travel to and from and were up quite early to start their day. Free breakfast was served in the pool house. Due to the number of people partaking, we chose to grab some quick fruit and hit the road toward the Badlands. I've stayed in numerous Best Westerns and don't recall ever having a bad experience. The Plains Motel certainly keep that streak alive. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.
Thank you for choosing Best Western Plains Motel for your stay. Have a good day.
Comfortable and clean. Excellent, friendly check-in service and super breakfast spread. Doors open to the parking lot rather than having interior building access, which worries some people, but the place felt safe and secure.
We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We hope to see you again soon.
We stayed 6 nights and couldnt be happier. The rooms were clean and well taken care of. Our pet was welcome and we had no problems. Their beds were not worn out and actually we slept better than our bed at home. Can't wait to go back!!
We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. Thanks for your business. We hope to see you again soon.
The hotel is a typical older style Best Western, with the doors to the outside, but with decent sized rooms, and comfortable beds and bedding, which enabled a good nights sleep. We had some luggage and appreciated the first floor. The AC is quiet. The location is convenient close to the freeway and a great place from which to visit Badlands.
Thank you for your great review of our hotel. We appreciate you choosing to stay with us. We hope you enjoyed your vacation.
Traveling on a road trip across US , this property by far exceeded all others and we will return every summer to this particular Best Western. It's quality of staff, cleanliness, top notch rooms and all the little extra touches, very impressed, like no other experience while on the road!
Thank you for staying with us. we appreciate your business. We hope to see you again soon and tell your fiends about our friendly little town.
We stayed two nights while visiting the Badlands. The location is perfect for walking to everything in Wall and a quick drive to the entrance to Badlands National Park. It's an older style motel, with room entrances from outside, but everything was clean and neat. Our room was spotless and had lots of towels, and our housekeeper (I wish I could remember her name) even left us some towel art in the shape of a heart. The included breakfast was fine. A lot of packaged foods, which isn't something we usually eat, but they did have fresh fruit, cereal, and hard boiled eggs so it was enough to get the day started. It was better than many hotels are doing these days. We had one small issue - after returning home I discovered my credit card was charged for our two-night stay even though I had pre-paid with Black Hills Reservations. I called the property and spoke with Debbie, and the charge was immediately reversed. That's what excellent customer service is all about. I highly recommend this property.
Thank you for staying with us and we are happy to hear all turned out well for you. We appreciate your business.
We stayed here for two nights to visit Badlands National Park. The motel location is very convenient, nice little town ... everything close-by. Staff is very friendly, very service oriented and very responsive to a small concern we had with our room.
Thank you for your positive response and for staying with us here at the Best Western Plains Motel. Have a good day.
The price doesn't match because one of the suite rooms is not equipped w/a window. Best Western should have indicated this clearly on all of its advertising websites related. The suite room w/o a window is not worthy $231.00/Night. Undeniably, I am unhappy with it, but I am happy to share my experience ------ to stay in a suite w/o window in Wall, SD with all of my friends and relatives. In fact, I used to stay in Best Western, Socorro, NM and Jakarta, Indonesia. Although the rooms were small, I felt at home. Before Sep. 5, 2021, your hotel had always been top of my selection. After that, I, unfortunately have to say Bye Bye.
Thank you for your response, this matter will be taken to management. Have a good day.
Very good service and the room is very clean. Best of all the location, if you are planning to visit the Badlands this is the place to stay. I will recommend this to my friends and relatives.I will rate this motel a five star.
WE were happy to have you as our guest and hope to see you again soon. We appreciate your business.
This was a nice stay in Wall and close to the Badlands National Park. The outdoor pool area seemed very nice and the breakfast area was very clean. The rooms have a rustic decor and the only downside was the lighting was a bit dim, especially in the bathroom area.
Thanks for the positive review. We hope you had a great vacation. We apologize for the lighting. Please come and stay with us again.
Very nice stay. The hotel is exceptionally clean and neat, and the room was very comfortable. The location is good, very close to town and to the National Park. The free breakfast was good, and the breakfast room was very neat and clean.
Thanks for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again soon.
We were traveling through on a long trip & I chose this motel because it is a Best Western Property. This place is SO well run right down to having extra towels, blankets, pillows & extra coffee pods in the room. I was very impressed by the attention to detail. If we were back in this area, I would certainly stay here again.
Our stay was Ok. Staff was super nice and helpful. Room smelled musty and was humid despite running AC all of the time. You can tell it was an older room, but was updated and clean looking. Could hear dripping water in the walls when we ran the sink faucet. We had one of the family rooms and it was set up great for privacy for parents and children. Price was good. Breakfast options very limited (some places still not serving ANY food during COVID). Grabbed food a couple of times but didn't have a full breakfast.
Very clean, a small bathroom and a decent bed, not too soft or hard The best place to stay in Wall. Pool and Hot tub was great but closes at 10. Office also closes by 11. Covid breakfast was just package rolls.
This was a typical Best Western, clean room, very dark, dark bedspread and clean sheets on an OK bed. Small bathroom, no elevators, so you need to carry luggage upstairs. The but is that it was Very expensive!
The staff were exceptional at making sure our room was ready for an early check in 1:30 pm so I could participate in a last minute conference call. I chose the hotel because they have high speed internet. The town of Wall looks bigger than Interior, if you want to stay close to the Badlands. Separate building for indoor pool and spa also has the breakfast area. Our room had been renovated and the furniture was new. All very clean.
It was typical Best Western older property with nice staff, clean room, and adequate breakfast. But in a 3 day/2 night stay wifi only worked 25% of the time. It was a known problem because front desk offered a guide to sign on if problems but it was nonexistent most of our stay. This isn't sufficient in a no-cell-signal town like Wall. Cannot recommend this property.
Very nice hotel. Stayed for two nights. Shower pressure is really good. Beds are fairly comfy. Breakfast was good. Within walking distance of restaurants. Outdoor pool was also nice. The check-in staff was friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend.
Best place to stay in wall. They have a good breakfast with a good size breakfast dining space. The pool outside is spacious. The shower had good pressure. The Staff was helpful. I had an issue that I dropped something into the ice machine. The maintenance man was amazing and helpful.
Realizing options are limited in Wall, we booked the Best Western figuring it is a reliable chain. Yet everything just seems very outdated. The dark furniture, heavy drapes and bedskirts, and worn out blankets on the bed just make the room seem old and dirty. Very old, uncomfortable and stained couch also in the room. We stayed in a 2 bedroom family unit but the second room had no air circulation - no vent, no window - so it got very hot, stuffy, and uncomfortable. For a family unit, the bathroom and sink area were tiny. There were covid precautions in place at breakfast (just not many people abiding by them, but at least the effort was there by the motel). Overall, you can find a cheaper option in Wall, probably even one that is a little more updated. Don't be fooled by the Best Western name.
To be honest, I wasn't expecting much more than the very basics at this hotel, and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised! The room was spacious and clean, with ample bathroom counter space, fridge and microwave in the room all a plus. The pool area is what really made our stay, though, with a nice outdoor pool perfect for cooling off in the brutal July afternoon sun. It's also conveniently located, a strait shot to Badlands! Breakfast was nice and had many choices. I would stay here again!
We stayed here for a night after visiting the badlands. The location is a convent it distance to the park and we were able to get a quick nap in between a morning hike and an evening sunset. Breakfast area was clean and well stocked with pancakes and the usual items. Only negative was there were not any hooks or closets where we could hang items in the room. Not a disaster but annoying. Overall a good stay.
The hotel has modern ameneties but has retained it's rustic charm. Wall SD is a small town on the edge of the Badlands, so major hotels are not there. The Best Western was pleasant and has been well maintained for an older property. It has been updated but maintains it's rustic, rural charm.
Not the best place overall but probably the best for Wall, SD. We had 2 rooms with beds in each and the smaller section in each room only had a small window AC in it. That couldn't do the job on a 90 deg July day. Wall needs a better chain to come in there.
Excellent for families. We rarely stay in a hotel with exterior doors, but this is a definite exception. Nothing but families with kids. 2 pools ready for any season. Wall is a safe and wholesome stop. Property is well maintained. A little dated but would absolutely stay here again.
The rooms were clean and looked like a lodge. The pool was clean and refreshing for the hot summer days! (They have an indoor and outdoor pool and a hot tub). The staff was friendly and kind. The beds were comfortable and rooms are accessible! The breakfast however was not the best. Frozen breakfast pizzas and burritos were sitting out in a container that has no ice, and not big variety. They do have a grab and go bag.
The staff are very friendly and helpful. They had a nice pool area. Housekeeping made the room amazing. The breakfast wasn't the best but they do also offer grab and go breakfasts. The wifi was fast and they offer 2 pools and a hot tub. We will stay here again.
I had the fastest check-in experience that I have ever had at a hotel here. I think I had a key in hand within a minute. The hotel rooms were as pictured. The kids enjoyed the pool and hot tub. A variety of items for breakfast, nothing fancy but did the trick. The staff person keeping the breakfast area stocked was very friendly. My only complaint about this hotel would be the picnic table near our door. All the smokers congregated there. The sound of the A/C unit drowned out the noise, but we had to deal with the smoke every time we entered/exited our room.
Nice facility located an about 20 minutes outside of Badlands National Park. Our room was clean. The pool is near the parking lot but still a good place to chill. You can walk to Wall Drugs. Two options for breakfast - grab and go or buffet. Nice selection. Front desk person was very nice.
Always enjoyed our stays at Best Western. This particular Best Western is extremely high in price and the quality of breakfast was horrible compared to others. I understand because of COVID this past year in a half may have some impact on their breakfast, but why did others have a large assortment to choose from. Other than that, our stay was satisfactory.
Room was a nice size and had been updated. Clean. Parking was a bit tight, but it was a holiday weekend. Breakfast better than expected, plenty to choose from. Breakfast room guy was very pleasant and helpful. Front desk personnel were very pleasant.
I would recommend the Best Western Great Plains if you are visiting the Badlands or staying in Wall. This location is great as it's right near the entrance/exit at the Badlands and provides a great place to stay. The check in process is really easy and then there is an express check out. The front desk staff was very helpful and guided me to a great restaurant 2 blocks away that had great local food. I was impressed with the room size, internet speed, etc. There is a bigger fridge, microwave, and then the other amenities you would expect from a Best Western. Please note that if you have trouble with stairs and luggage you may want to request a room on the first floor as there is no elevator.
I messed up on the reservation, they would not cancel my reservation. The manager was standing up front and said nothing. I wish i would have paid the $200 and left. Instead the gal found a luxury room connected to the front office. The gal told me to close the registers if we were cold. I did before we went to sleep and woke up to my kid crying because it was freezing cold. The 56 degree outside felt warmer. It wrecked our vacation. The pool was freezing cold.
We had a nice stay. There are 5 of us, so they found a room with a pull out. It worked great for us. The beds were comfortable, the room was clean. Hot tub and pool open until 10pm. Breakfast was good and the gentleman monitoring the breakfast bar was very personable.
The Plains Motel was selected because of its proximity to the Badlands Park, about fifteen minutes from BW. The room was comfortable and clean. The breakfast was adequate, a grab and go menu. The attendant, David, was friendly and helpful. He even held the door open upon our exit, a gesture we have not experienced at any other BW's
Dedicated Pet Courtyard area with waste bag/waste disposal stand. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Internet was stable. Close to Wall Drug, easy access to Badlands National Park. I would definitely stay there, again.
One night stay over after visiting Badlands Nat'l Park. Super convenient to park entrance. Outside doesn't look like much, but the rooms were clean and comfortable. Hotel was pretty empty, so the stay was a quiet one. Staff was super friendly. Pool and hot tub were open, tho we didn't use either. Breakfast was included and was adequate, with a couple "heatable" items. Overall a nice stay. This will be your best option when staying in Wall.
This was a good choice for the night. The motel was clean. It was busy but we really did not mingle with anyone. You check in at the office and then find your room. Breakfast bags were provided in the club house (which is not really being used given COVID). Location is perfect for 1 night for what we needed. Choices are quite limited in Wall.
Thank you for your positive review. Have a great day.
Been a few years since we stayed in a Best Western Property, but this trip was west into small towns with few options. We were pleasantly surprised here; the room was pleasant, clean, covid compliant, the staff were great, parking convenient, all the basics were right and the grab and go breakfast was better than nothing.
We are so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay with us in the family friendly town of Wall. We apologize for the grab n go as it is not the best like you said. It helps us to follow the Covid 19 regulations better though and keep people from gathering. Our hope and prayer is this will come to an end and we can get back to a good breakfast for everyone. Thank you so much for your kind comments and we hope you come back this way again sometime and also tell your friends Owner Jackie Heathershaw
We took a quick weekend at Mt. Rushmore and Badlands National Park. We used TripAdvisor reviews to find somewhere to stay close to Badlands NP. Most of the places around Wall, SD did not have very good reviews except the Plains Best Western so we took a chance on it. We really did not want to have to stay in Rapid City as it is an hour west of Badlands and we were traveling East. The staff was very pleasant and the hotel was very clean (very important these days). It looked like they normally have a nice breakfast but because of COVID-19 they could only offer a bagged breakfast which was nice. They had an indoor and outdoor pool. The hotel is very close to the interstate. We spent two nights while visiting Badlands NP. If you are going to be going the the National Park, this is by far the best choice to stay. The only negative was you can hear the walking of the people staying in the room above you. We had some kids above us but we got use to it. Also be aware that the food options, especially dinner, are limited in Wall which only has a couple hundred people. The few options, like Wall Drug, closed around 6:00 pm.
Thank you very much for staying with us. We appreciate your business and hope to see you again.
This hotel is one of a kind. I was greeted with a big smile from Juanita at the front desk. I had been on the road for over 500 miles and she was so kind and generous. The hotel is so clean and so friendly to animal owners. I even left my winter jacket in the hotel dresser and they gladly didn't even question that they would ship the jacket back to Indiana for me. Ellen at the check in counter is terrific too! I am definitely staying at this property next time I visit The Badlands!
Perhaps the best motel in Wall - that isn't saying a lot but it was a decent enough place. Two floors with exterior doors and no elevator that we saw. You can walk into town from here to the limited selection of restaurants and Wall Drug. The rooms are pretty basic though they do have a microwave and a good size "dorm" refrigerator with a separate freezer compartment which is handy. I'm no giant but the bathroom has the lowest sink and toilet I have seen since grade school - from what era is this equipment? Given Covid the breakfast is now a grab and go bag of items (pre-packaged pastry, a piece of fruit, etc.) which was OK but I am guessing not as good as what they normally would have. They do have an outdoor pool that we did not use but we did eat take-out food for dinner poolside. Better than eating in our room. Overall an OK location if you want to be near Badlands National Park.
Thank you for your response, have a good day.
While I cannot attest to what the rooms or stay look like I can comment on the customer service. Yesterday I fell 100 feet down a cliff at Badlands and needed to be airlifted out by the National Guard. Obviously I could not stay there since I didn't even get to the hospital until 10:30PM with a concussion and broken foot. The hotel advised me to contact Orbitz regarding me reservation. I contacted Orbitz and they contacted the hotel. The manager on duty Debbie, stuck with the non-refundable reservation spiel and refused to let orbitz speak with the general manager. While I understand non-refundable, I'm lucky to be alive. I hope you guys all think twice about the customer service here. I will be calling corporate tomorrow.
Josh, I am sorry that you had a accident. I did refund your money last night. The general manager was not on property, that is why Orbitz could not speak to her. No need to call corporate, the matter has been resolved. Have a good day and I do hope you heal fast. Debbie, Office Manager
We walked in on a whim to stay here and what luck (!) they had a room. The lady at the front desk was very friendly and cordial. The room was very clean and updated. Comfy beds! Fridge was already cold. Couldn't have been any better! Pool and hot tub were great, too!
Thank you for your positive response. Have a good day.
We had a great stay here. There are not a lot of choices in Wall but glad I took trip advisors recommendation and choose the Best Western. It was by far the best option in the area. The indoor, outdoor pool was great to have the option as it got cold in the evening. Hot tub was amazing! Staff was very accommodation and very on top of cleanliness. Appreciated not being bartered over mask wearing. Breakfast was brown bag but worked well and was easy. Wouldn't stay anywhere else in wall.
Thank you so much staying with us. We appreciate your business and your response to our survey. We hope to see you again soon
My husband and I recently stayed here on the drive home from Yellowstone for 2 nights. We loved the ease of checkin. The staff was efficient and friendly. The room was clean and large for the a very reasonable price. Beds are comfy and you can tell the staff is doing an excellent job of keeping the rooms Covid sanitized. We are happy they do not come in at all during our stay. The proximity to Badlands National Park is about a 10 min drive. We could drive over to Badlands just to watch sunset after dinner. Would definitely recommend staying here.
Thank you for the positive reply. You have a good, safe day.
We stopped here to see the Badlands. Our room was very functional. Missed having a table to sit at but there was a nice comfortable chair. For breakfast, they were providing bagged breakfasts. This was a nice change as we had served buffet the prior two mornings. The breakfast came with water, a muffin, a granola bar and an apple. What we didn't eat was easily packed away. The best thing about this hotel is the location. Very close to the Badlands and to Wall Drug.
Stayed one night while visiting The Badlands. Reserved one of the king rooms. Very large, quiet, and clean. Free breakfast included. Located on the main drag, just off the interstate. Wall Drug was just a few blocks away. Would definitely stay here again.
Older motel style, but fairly nice. It provided all we needed which was a fairly quiet place to sleep, clean sheets and a hot shower. The shower was hot, cold, hot, cold, and kept you jumping. The motorcycles start revving about 7:30am so you better be ready to get up! It seemed pretty quiet between 10:30pm and 7:00am. The location is 8 miles to Badlands National Park.
We stayed here because we were visiting Badlands National Park. First of all, there are not alot of hotel options in the area, so don't expect to find luxury anywhere. This hotel was a decent option. Nothing fancy, but the room was comfortable. It was a little noisy; you could hear people outside as well as the tv next door. It is also on the edge of town, so very close to the interstate and the road going to the national park.
This hotel is right down the street from Wall Drug and 8 miles from the Badlands Park entrance.Its a great location.Staff is friendly.Rooms are comfortable and clean . Microwave, refrigerator, television, coffee maker pretty much everything you find at hotels.Bathroom was clean with plenty of towels.We recommend.
The staff does NOT wear masks and they do not require guests to. Other guests reported this weeks ago, but nothing has changed. No masks in town either. Freezing cold rooms, no comforter or warm blanket with below freezing temps, no Best Western quality or standards, old, uncomfortable beds and linens, dated property, rude, disinterested desk clerk. No heat in bathroom, just a noisy Wall heater that blows cool air near bed. Called front desk to complain about no heat or blanket in middle of night and to report that wifi and cable were also out, but received hostile, unprofessional response because clerk was angry she was woken up by my call. Emailed Best Western corporate at 1am for assistance because we're in the middle of no where and paid $130 on a Tuesday night for garbage. We drove thousands of miles to visit Badlands and Mount Rushmore. We are desperate for a good night sleep. Up all night shivering with aching backs from old bed. This hotel is the anti-Best Western.
Very clean comfortable room, nice hot shower, and quiet after lights out. 8 miles from the Badlands park entrance. The breakfast was a grab and go bag, nothing to write home about, but hot coffee was good. I nice spot for sleep after a long day at the park and a good value
Thank you for choosing Best Western. We are happy to hear things went well. We hope to see you again sometime in the future.
Hotel is very old for $130.00 per night. I was travelling an needed a place to stay. AS a Best Western Platinum member I expected better. The Lobby was close when I departed and I was unable to get a receipt.
We will make sure and either email a receipt to you or mail one. I am so sorry for any inconvenience and thank you for staying with us in Wall, SD
Prepaid for two rooms, two nights but left after the first night. The rooms are old and outdated. Both rooms had a terrible odor. Smelled like they had been smoked in in years past. The ac could not keep up with the humidity in the room. My friends room had flies and the smell was worse in her room than mine, bathrooms and showers need to be updated as they appear dirty but not because of housekeepers. Sheets and towels were so old i was afraid theyd tear. Very very thin! We left after the first night and now im fighting to bet our money back. They apparently have a prepay discount but you cant get refunded if you leave. DO NOT STAY here! Go to rapid city and stay further from the national parks!
I am so sorry for any inconvenience you experienced while at our hotel. After looking at the type of reservation you booked, you received a discounted rate for a non cancel reservation which unfortunately means you are unable to cancel. Once again we apologize for any troubles you experienced and we will make sure and look into them to see if we can improve or the next guest.
Convenient location off I90 and close to the grocery store in town. Wall Drug not too far away. Good WiFi. I support the use of bag breakfast due to COVID, but more could be in the bag. Granola bar and Honey Bun (plus apple and water) falls short of expectations. Would be nice to have a breakfast sandwich or something savory.
Thank yo for your comments. We will take into consideration trying something more in the breakfast bag. Thank yo for choosing Best Western and staying with us in Wall, SD
Overnight stop on our way to Black Hills. This hotel was beautiful, the price was very low compared to the high quality of the rooms. Everything was clean and tidy, the employees were very polite, the room was incredible.
This was a nice spot for a clean and quiet stay. The doors and walls are heavy duty so you can get a good night's sleep. Everyone in the office was kind and efficient. They offer a to go breakfast and there is coffee in the room. I would recommend this hotel.
Thank you for your positive response and for stay with us. Have a safe day.
I have stayed at this hotel in the past. Every time I stay here I have such a pleasant experience. The rooms are clean with nice decor. The bed is comfortable and most important the place is quiet. Great breakfast to go in the morning.
Thank you for your positive reply. Have a good day.
Not many choices for hotels in this area, but the Best Western is a good place to stay. They have both an indoor and outdoor pool and both received approval from my teens. It's an older hotel with doors on the exterior of the building rather than interior hallways, but we weren't bothered by noise. The workers were friendly. Also, this is the only hotel I've stayed at where they had little spray bottles of bug remover available for your car. A great touch since we managed to pick up a wide variety of insects on our car while making our way through South Dakota., My only complaint would be the travelers at breakfast. People, you don't need to open the sealed brown breakfast bags to see what is inside when it is written on the wall right next to you!!
Than you for choosing Best Western and for staying with us in our small little friendly town of Wall. we hope to see you again soon.
We had to stay on the 2nd floor because there is no elevator. The motel is an older one they remodeled. The beds were ok. The air worked fine but it took a while to cool off the room. The internet is not very good. The bath area is small, the sink is very low (I am 5'1 and it was short for me). The commode was very small. We rested good but there was some noise outside. The channel on the TV kept going on and off. There was no hot breakfast just a bag they give you. We stayed in a motel the night before and they had a nice hot breakfast and the room was cheaper and almost nice plus it had an elevator. I would not stay here again. Our room was over $170.00 for two people. The ice machine was downstairs.
No complaints at all, this was a nicely maintained and well-run inn, definitely a cut above the other lodgings in Wall SD. Even though it's an older property, management has clearly invested in its upkeep. I noticed the windows were new, everything was neatly painted, the caulking was clean and perfect, and the rooms were remarkably soundproof. We were on the 2nd floor and I didn't hear a single noise from any of our neighbors or from the cars in the parking lot. They also have quite a well-organized army of cleaners in the morning going through all the rooms guests had checked out of but I appreciated they they didn't knock on our door first thing in the morning. Huge plus too that they're dog friendly! The dog walking area in the back was a nice spot and also looks like it was recently redone.
thank you so much for your e hope to see you again in the near future. We are happy to here that thigs went well for you.
The Best Western exceeded my expectations on all fronts for a motel. The rooms were very clean and nice. The distance to the Badlands from this Motel is very manageable. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Would stay here again!
Thank you so much for your positive response, we appreciate you. Have a good safe day.
The facilities were good, our room was clean, the rate seemed high for the area, the Manager - Juanita was not polite and slightly rude (to us). None of the staff we encountered during our stay wore face mask. Perhaps it is not required in South Dakota.
Not a bad night's stay. The beds weren't the most comfortable, and the room seemed a little crowded with furniture, but it was clean. The workers wore masks and offered contactless checkout, which consisted of you leaving the keys in the room and opening the blinds to signify that you were leaving; my husband and I appreciated this. The cleaning staff were very good about communicating on vacated rooms and were prompt at getting in. There was both an indoor and outdoor pool, along with a hot tub. Clean towels were provided, but I don't think social distancing was being enforced, as the pools were pretty full at all times. There are no elevators here, so if you have issues with stairs or have a ton of luggage, make sure to request a first floor room. The grab and go breakfast was appreciated, but truthfully it was nothing but sugar! Chocolate chip granola bar, packaged HoneyBun, and a bottle of water. I was glad I brought a protein shake! Short walk/drive to Wall Drug and about 7 minutes to the Badlands National Park. Would stay again
Thank you for your positive reply. Have a good day.
Check-in was easy, staff friendly, room clean and comfortable. Had a handicapped-accessible room with a shower seat, which was great for my BFF who has trouble getting around. Nice to have choice for indoor or outdoor pools. Near the interstate, but far enough away that traffic noise is minimal. Would stay here again.
Thank you for your positive review, have a good day.
We stayed here two nights while visiitng the Badlands National Park. The staff were helpful and informative about the area. Rooms were clean and quite. The only drawback in staying anywhere in Wall, SD is the lack of dining. We had packed our food just in case and ate in our room.
I am so sorry for the inconvenience in finding places to dine. We have 3 restaurants and a food truck and sometimes they just don't seem to be enough. The city is working on trying to get more places to eat. Thank yo for staying nd we hope to see you again soon.
Wall is a small town with a handful of places to stay.....make reservations early in the day as I imagine it sells out frequently because of location. We had a street level room vs. Stairs to the 2nd level. Rooms were clean and quiet. There is a pool.
Thank you for your kind response. We are a small town with a big personality and we are glad you enjoyed your stay. Please come see us again and tell your friends about our great little town.
3rd stop on our trip west during covid 19 when we didn't fly. Easy access from interstate. Staff wore mask and gloves. Nice hotel room. Short walk to wall drug which was unfortunately closed during covid. Room very nice. Grab and go bad provided for breakfast. Would stay here again.
Thank You for staying with us. We appreciate your business. With our world in turmoil we hope things get better soon. Thank you for taking the time to post a great comment for us.
The virus decimated industry has led to a 10% discount, but for this location a little pricey. The rooms are definitely clean and newly refinished. Convenient to the highway and friendly staff. Didn't use the pool, but that facility seems quite nice.
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property.
Clean with a good breakfast and a lovely pool with hot tub. It had a quaint patio off of the pool which was a nice place to gather while others enjoyed swimming. We were thankful for a nice place to stay after traveling all day.
Thank you for your positive response. Hope you stay with us again in the future. Have a good day.
This is the best option in Wall, SD. Our room was clean and comfortable. The air conditioning was old and a bit loud. The pool was great, but the hot tub needed a good cleaning. The breakfast was slightly above average, by hotel chain standards. Good value. Very close to the Badlands. I would stay again.
Thank you for choosing Best Western Plains Motel for your stay. Have a good da.
As we'd planned to go into the Badlands, this was a very convenient, very clean and friendly hotel. It is an older but updated hotel that includes a frig/freezer and microwave. The decor in our room was basically brown and I'd encourage them to brighten that up. We were comfortable and slept well. Breakfast was ok but would have liked more than one fresh fruit choice.
Thank you for your response. Have a good day.
We found the room to be clean but old and very tired. A handwritten note on the bed and a decorative towel, welcomed us to our room. Apparently, the owners have owned this location for a period of time. However, they are not up to date on decor. Paint, new bedspreads and curtains would help. Breakfast was nice and hot. Too much money is required for this room. More reasonable and improved rooms are down the highway.
We will take his matter into consideration. Have a good day.
Enjoyed this little hotel in Wall. The hotel has exterior corridors so be aware of that. The check-in ladies were super nice and gave our dog a little welcome treat! The rooms are a little dated but pretty clean. The armoire's doors didnt securely close so whenever you walked past it the doors rattled. Other than that, everything was great! Breakfast was filling and always clean and replenished.
Thank yo for your response and for staying with us in Wall. We will check out the door situation to make sure it is amended for the next guest. We hope to see you in Wall again sometime soon.
The Best Western Plains Motel is a family owned location with pride of ownership evident from check in to check out. It is an older location, but is in like new condition. Our room was spacious and comfortable. Every staff member I encountered was friendly, professional and helpful. The breakfast area was bright and clean with an exceptional offering.
Thank you for your positive response. Have a good day.
I would not recommend this hotel. It was old, rundown, dirty and the beds were like a slab of rock. We were supposed to stay for two nights and left after one. Would recommend travelling to Rapid City and staying at one of the many properties there. We found a MUCH better property (Staybridge) for LESS money!
We are sorry that you were not happy with your stay with us. We will take these matters into consideration. Have a good day.
Nice friendly staff and good breakfast. Only down side was lumpy pillows and no elevator to second floor, it was not a problem for us, but something to consider. This hotel has great access to the Badlands and Custer State Park.
thank you for your reply. Have a good day.
Check in /out was easy and accurate. The rooms were clean. The room was very quiet. The bed was comfy and pillows soft. The staff was helpful and friendly and the suggestion I was given for dinner was helpful. The breakfast was quite good.
Thank you for your positive response. Have a good day.
We stay every year and every year it is better! We took our dog which costs $20.00 a day but this was the best year we have had. Thank you!! Jose` was great getting towels for us each day, that is all we ask for and the service was ALWAYS WITH A SMILE!!
Thank you for your positive response. Have a good day.
Stayed at Best Western Wall SD 3 nights while visiting Minuteman Missile NM and Badlands NP. Wall is not big and so motel is not super fancy, but it was comfortable, priced right, and super clean (met owner on premises checking on rooms) and the folks were very friendly and competent. Access rooms from parking lot and no elevator, so if need one, probably should ask for ground floor room. Forgot bathing suit (thinking now should always pack) so didn't get to use pool or hot tub (would have been nice after hiking all day) but all that & exercise room looked well taken care of. Ate 1 breakfast there and was good (typical hotel breakfast). In Wall everything is in walking distance, so close to downtown and good, home cooking style restaurants (esp. Red Rock, down the street). Had such a good trip (from Georgia) and Wall and Wall BW a big part of the experience.
Thank you so much for taking the time to review and rate our property! We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us and enjoyed the town.
The fan on heater did not function properly. Refrigerator was set on medium but still froze all the food overnight. The fitness room does not have the equipment as pictured. When asked how my stay was I explained the issues and at least received an "I'm sorry"...probably the best place in town but that's not saying much.
We are sorry that your stay was not up to your expectations. The weight machine that is not in the exercise room anymore was unsafe and we are waiting for a replacement to arrive. We will be looking into the rest of your issues and we apologize again for your inconvenience.
This hotel is ok. It is better then most I stay at. It is a bit of a walk to Wall Drug or the 2 restuarnts from the hotel. The nearby restaurants are expensive. The breakfast is about the same as all hotels. Heat and serve eggs that come in a plastic bag along with fake meat heat and serve sausages. They have a pancake machine and wafle irons + cold cereal. The rooms are really clean and comfortable. Hotel is bit older but well maintained. They leave a letter saying the place has been family owned and operated for 4 generations. I seriously doubt any of the family actualy work there or have in a lot of years. The hotel is a bit pricy but not many options in Wall, SD
Thank you for staying with us. I'm sorry our breakfast was not up to your expectations. We will take note and see what we can improve in that area. We are truly family owned and I am the owner. My mom and dad who originally got us started in the business are now gone. I am on property everyday and my daughter also works for me. We are usually out stripping rooms and talking with guest and employees to keep the day going smooth. I hope you enjoyed your time in Wall and we hope to see you again sometime soon.
Felt like hotel hasn't changed since the 1950's. Room was small, smelly and not well maintained. HVAC was very loud. Some staff members were grumpy. Small bathroom with very weak water pressure in shower. Breakfast was OK. Would not stay here again and would probably stay in Rapid City if we were to return
I am sorry that your experience with us was not up to your expectations or ours. We strive to make each customers experience the best possible. All staff will be spoken to about your experience here to try amend some of your concerns. Once again our apologies. Jackie Heathershaw
Motel was clean and staff was very pleasant and accommodating. Room was normal size , nice decor and a tv. Bathroom was clean with nice fresh towels. Breakfast was the normal eggs, sausage, French toast sticks, cereal, oatmeal, toast , bagel and some donuts/muffin and juice. Would stay again
Thank you for your positive response. Have a good day.
This is a beautiful pristine family-run Hotel. It's been operated by four generations of this family since 1970. The rooms are beautifully updated and pristinely maintained. The family is present on the property on a daily basis which explains why this is so well-managed. The pool and jacuzzi are fantastic and the breakfast was very very good. And to make everything better they had Tim Cox prints on the wall in the room!
We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay! Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property! We hope to see you again!
We arrived early, had no trouble checking in. Our room was clean and the beds were very comfortable. It is close to the street so you hear the traffic, and people talking outside. It is in a great location and close to intestate.
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property! We are pleased you enjoyed your stay with us and will be taking your comments into consideration for future updates.
Stopped in on one of my many trips through SD. As usual I looked in TA for prices and reviews. Reviews were fine and price was 83$. I was in late (11) and out at 6. Called for my bill and when I got it I was charged 145$. Emailed back and never got a response or credit. Fool me once.... never again. Too Smelled too.
After a long ride from Aberdeen to Wall SD we arrived to find friendly accommodating staff and a super clean and comfortable room. This motel is a short walk to the area attractions and restaurants too! We were surprised that a complimentary towel was placed on our motorcycle seat in the morning to wipe up the morning dew.
Thank you for your positive response. Have a good day.
This is an older hotel but it is easy to find, close to the interstate and close to several restuarants. The only problem I had was early morning coffee. I do not like the in room coffee so I usually go to either the lobby or breakfast area for coffee. But both were closed so I walked to the Exxon station and found some very wonderful coffee. The rooms are clean, air conditioning works great, had plenty of towels and even though it was located on the main drag in Wall, the room was very quiet.
Thank you for your reply, have a good day.
This is a good choice for the area. My room was clean, and the bed was comfortable. Really good location with easy access to town and the entrance to Badlands. The breakfast was just OK, and the eating area is small. I left my plate and juice to get up for a bowl of cereal. I came back and a woman had trashed my stuff and took my table. Not the hotel's fault, but still....
Thank you for your positive reply. Have a good day.
This place was a real surprise to us. It was so clean and well managed. They have fresh popped popcorn in the lobby, along with hot coffee. The included breakfast was good, with a lot of choices. The rooms were well maintained. Pleasant experience.
Thank you for your positive reply. Have a good day.
Quick summary: clean, comfortable room. Friendly, professional service. Good location for visiting Badlands. We stayed for four nights in room 240, which is a family room with two separate bedrooms. This was a courtesy as our room type request was lost in the system. One room has a king bed; the other two queens. The bathroom area connects the two without a door, maybe good for a family, but not for groups that might want a little privacy. Beds are comfortable. Each bed has four poly fill pillows -- some find them comfortable enough, but this is why my husband travels with his own down pillows. The usual good stuff you expect at Best Western: coffee maker (no tea), fridge, microwave, iron and board. No in-room safe. Large three drawer chest and armoire in the room with the king bed. Table and chairs. Flat screen TV has lots of good cable channels. Good number of plugs for charging you device. Complimentary wifi mostly works well, but had some dropped connections (might be a Wall issue, not a hotel issue,) Sink area has a large vanity to spread out with your things. Separate tiled tub/shower and toilet area. Shampoo supplied, but no conditioner, bath gel, or lotion. Excellent housekeeping. Breakfast was pretty good with scrambled eggs and sausage, yogurt, pastries and breads, juices, cereals, make-yourself pancakes. No fresh fruit to speak of. Indoor and outdoor swimming pools. Easy access to visiting Badlands national park, and the interstate. This was a nice stay, but due diligence: * not a fault of the hotel, but Wall's water has an off taste. Not awful (as in some visits in Ohio) but I recommend that you plan on buying bottled water to put in your fridge for something better to drink than the tap water. Don't even think of ordering iced tea at a local restaurant. * this particular room sits over the hotel 's hot water heater, which made it difficult to get a cold drink of water, even after running a long time. Other rooms should be better. *. There aren't enough tables in the breakfast area when the hotel is fairly full. I saw some bringing it back to their rooms. There are additional tables in the pool area and outside door, but who wants to smell chlorine or sit in a parking lot at breakfast? So -- it was a good stay, but not quite five dots.
The rooms were extremely clean and well kept, the pool was sparkling clean and refreshing, the beds were comfortable, the showers (and very big bathtubs!) were hot and powerful, and the breakfast was fantastic. We loved the availability of family rooms. This hotel is a gem in Wall.
Thank you so much for your positive response. Have a good day.
Cost was a little higher then others around. But, was worth it. I am always petty about bathroom cleanliness when I stay in hotels. This one passed with flying colors. Room was good. Heard no road noise. Beds were great. Sleep all night which is normally not possible for me. Breakfast was good also.
Thank you for your positive response. Have a great day.
Such a warm welcome! Everywhere you went all the staff went out of their way to greet you! Great breakfast and good advice where to eat and location of the local Roman Catholic Church. Would definitely stay here again.
Thank you for your positive reply. Have a good day.
Great location. A bit overpriced for the age of the motel but expected due to lack of options in proximity to the Badlands. Room was extremely clean and quiet. Breakfast looked nice minus the eggs. We opted to eat elsewhere for a bigger breakfast. Cleaning staff was awesome - We had forgotten our personal pillows in our room after check out and within five minutes received a phone call letting us know they were at the front desk. Who does that? Very much appreciated. Would stay here again.
Thank you for your response. Have a good day.
On the verge of needing a facelift on rooms but met necessary requirements. Breakfast selections were good and staff was polite. Beds were an issue. Ours were saggy and we kept rolling to one side. Rooms need a facelift, looking a little used.
We apologize for the the issues you faced during your stay with us. We will make sure to pass these comments along to our owner and general manager so that these are addressed and fixed for future guests. We do hope you will consider stopping again to give us another chance.
Location is great! Hotel had a musty, moldy smell. Found empty vodka bottle under the bed. Staff was somewhat friendly about it. Rooms are old and outdated. Too pricey for what you get. Breakfast was ok - typical hotel breakfast.
I am so sorry for any inconvenience that you had to experience. I will definitely speak with my employees about showing more care an concern for our customers. We hope you enjoyed our small town. Sincerely, Jackie owner
Easily accessible off of I90 (right outside of the Badlands Loop), this motel provided a quiet and comfortable night. The room was clean and "white noise" was provided by the fan. Breakfast was good with a wide variety of items.
Thank you for your positive response. Have a good day.
Considering that Wall is really in the middle of nothing this hotel is really good. Very good facilities indoor and outdoor swimmingpool, fitness center. Very good breakfast perhaps with no so many tables in the rush hours.
Staff did good job -- Room Was Very Clean And Pleasantly Decorated-- Breakfast Was Very Good _ Checking In And Out Was Easy. Overall Facility Was IN Great Shape----Close To Wall Drug And All Other Needed Facilities
Friendly staff, extremely busy hotel, but well thought out. The pool and breakfast area are a separate building - making less congestion in the lobby area - great pool and hot tub. Definitely stay again
Thank you for your positive response. Have a good day.
The staff was very friendly and helpful. Great location! It was enjoyable to be able to eat breakfast outside and weather cooperated.. Breakfast selection was good, rooms were clean and enough room.Speed checkout was a plus.
Thank you for staying with us and for your positive response. Have a good day.
We enjoyed our stay here. The room is very big with a nice bed. The bathroom is small but is OK. The room was clean, which is a plus! The breakfast was good; several things to choose from. We would stay here again.
Thank you so much for your comments and rating. We are glad to hear back from you and what you enjoyed about your time with us.
The noise level is disturbing. We heard the 5 people in the room next door, taking showers, flushing toilets, running hair dryers, watching television and talking. We heard every conversation. That family really did enjoy the Badlands and the Door hike. We tried to go to bed at 10:30, but they talked until after midnight. It sounded as if they were in our room. It was impossible to sleep. Also, the room is old and outdated. The shower valves were so old that they had a "hot" and "cold" spigot that you had to mix - rather than a single control. The bed had a single blanket (instead of a comforter) . It also seems very expensive. So many similar type hotels in the town are only $80.
On behalf of our entire team, I would like to apologize for not exceeding your expectations. Your satisfaction is important to us and we will be using the feedback you gave us to implement improvements to ensure we offer a better experience for guests in the future.
My husband and I enjoyed our stay here. We came to visit Badlands National Park and had a very comfortable room. A/C worked great, beds were comfortable, the mini fridge is a larger size, like 4 cubic feet, which was great to have. Breakfast included more variety than other hotels and tasted good. The staff was friendly and very helpful. Our mini fridge and microwave broke down about 5 minutes after we started using it. A maintenance staff member was walking into the motel office at the same time I was reporting ours and he switched out our broken unit for a working one in 10-15 minutes. Great customer service. We would stay here again if we come back to Wall.
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property!!
Sure, the staff is friendly but the place itself is dumpy. The rooms are tiny, the fixtures are ancient and the walls are paper thin. As I write this review, I can hear every word of the conversation in the room next door and no one is yelling.
We will address this issue today. Thank you for staying with us.
Our room was a fine accomadtion. The a/c was very quite and worked very well. The beds were comfortable and the room was very clean. We are previous Hilton Honor members and have converted to Best Western Rewards members. The customer service keeps us. The breakfast is something we always look forward to as something to start our day on a positive note. It is more important than many esatblishments realize. Thank you Best Western for caring about our stay. This esatblishment is great. Allow me to say that is you ever travel to New York City, the Best Western at Herald Sqaure is the finest hotel we have ever stayed. In my 65 years on this planet, their customer service is the best I have ever experienced. They really care. This make the difference to my family.
Thank you for your stay we are very pleased that you enjoyed your time at our property!
This hotel was great! Breakfast was awesome. It was clean and the staff was very accommodating. We walked downtown and had dinner, the location is excellent. We plan on staying in this same hotel next year on our way through the area.
Nice and clean rooms, indoor and outdoor pool. Very good for visiting Badlands National Park or a to take a break from travelling along I-90. Hotel delivers what I expect from a well run Best Western Hotel.
Thank you for your comment and your rating. We appreciate the feedback.
Every few years I visit this area on a motorcycle ride. Every time I've stayed here it's been a great experience. The staff is friendly, they are motorcycle friendly (paved parking and a bike wash station, etc) I like this motel!!
The hotel is conveniently located near the freeway. It's about a 10 minute drive to the Pinnacle entrance and 35 minutes to the Visitor Center of the Badlands National Park. Breakfast included pancakes, eggs, sausage and other grain based products. Our room was large and mostly clean. I think the bathroom with the tub area has a water issue. I had to cover the floor with towels because I think water accumulation caused the grout to not be clean. Also, the tub had a slow drain. For some reason, our second night had our upstairs neighbor walking in a short path for almost the entire night. The floor was quite loud, but we dealt with it. Check in was not with the most friendly person, but so be it. The pool area (indoor and outdoor pool) had good water temps and plenty of towels. For all the places we stayed on our one-week driving tour, the amount of money we paid for this place compared to our other stays was on the highest amount paid. Lastly, it is probably an issue with this area, don't be surprised with the amount of flies. They were everywhere.
Thank you for your response. Have a good day.
We stayed here on our family road trip to/through South Dakota. The hotel rooms were clean and spacious. The kids loved the indoor and outdoor pool options. We loved it that it was walking distance to Wall Drug. Nice, clean, and friendly place to stay for a big family.
Thank you for your positive reply. Come and stay with us again. We appreciate you and your family. Have a good day.
Room was nice, I think this is the nicest option available in Wall. Walking distance to Wall Drug which was nice. They did not do a good job stocking the continental breakfast and everything was mostly gone an hour before it closed.This hotel was not cheap so I expected better on the breakfast. I have been in other hotels in Wall and this is the best place I have stayed there.
Thank you for your comments. I will make sure the breakfast attendant is talked to about the breakfast . Thank you for staying in Wall and choosing Best Western J
We stayed at the Best Western in Wall en route to Yellowstone last week and also as a base to explore Badlands National Park in the evening. I was able to make a reservation here four days out, which I was thankful for. It's about ten seconds off the exit from I-90 and very easy to get to. Depending which entrance you go in, it's about 15 minutes to the entrance to Badlands NP. The woman checking us in was very friendly and we got situated in a room upstairs right away. Unfortunately, the toilet wouldn't flush. Wanting to get to the park, we let the front desk know and then left. The motel was booked, so we couldn't switch rooms. However, when we returned later that evening, the toilet had been fixed! Everything was clean and more than sufficient for our stay. The only negative was that the breakfast wasn't very appetizing. The eggs were extremely dry and crumbly. We ended up not eating it and stopping on the road for McDonald's instead. Otherwise, everything was great and we would definitely stay here again.
Thank you for choosing Best Western and for staying with us in Wall. Sorry for any incovenience casued to youat breakfast.. We hope you come see us again sometime soon.
A family run hotel many of them indifferent to their guests. Wall is a vacation destination and a 7-9am breakfast is too short a window. Breakfast was sufficient except for the scrambled eggs which were too dry to eat.. Room was clean but musty smelling. Beds had plastic or vinyl mattress covers under the fitted sheet that was loud when moved on and hot..
I am so sorry for any inconvenience you experienced during your stay. All matters mentioned will be checked into and taken care of as this is not where we want our customer service to be. We strive to make each one have a great experience and those invovled will be spoken to.
Hubby and I stayed one night on way to keystone...we always stay at this best western as we think its the best option in Wall..as usual it was great.we only had 2 complaints.one was all the motorcycles in parking lot and riders taking over everything and the other was someone was playing loud music in their room until late in night..it was keeping us awake...but I know it isn't the motels fault...I love this motel.its always clean and workers are very pleasant and eager to help..oh plus they moved the one ice machine is across the parking lot and my ice started melting on the long walk back across parking lot..they need to put the one back closer to other side....other than that no complaints....I love it...
We are so sorry you were kept awake. We are definitely glad you come and stay with us when coming thru Wall. We hope to see you again soon. Thanks again for choosing Best Western.
The room was clean, well-stocked, but could use some updating. The staff was friendly, helpful, and efficient. Breakfast was very tasty and there was a great variety of food to choose from. I would recommend this hotel for its value.
Very clean & well maintained! Friendly & helpful staff! Great breakfast selections! Our group had 4 rooms for 2 nights and everyone was pleased! We definitely will return on our next trip to South Dakota!
Thank you for taking the time to rate our property. We appreciate feedback from our customers and hearing about their stays. We are glad you would stay with us again and look forward to it.
We stopped for one night on our way to the Badlands and Black Hills and were pleasantly surprised. Located in the heart of Wall, we could walk to local restaurants and the Wall Drug Store. The hotel was clean, quiet, and comfortable and the staff courteous and friendly.
Thank you for staying with us! We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay!
Front desk was very short with us upon checkin. Did not honor Veterans discount. Argued with my husband about parking, and ice bucket. Made our stay not enjoyable. She followed me out the door and because we had 2 small dogs she said in a very loud voice, "We will need to add your dogs into the bill." I was embarrassed and felt like it was a terrible thing to have dogs. She also argued with my husband about the small trailer we had with us. She told us we had to park it on the street because it was too long. It was no longer than a pickup truck. Another customer told her it was short enough. Later when we got into the room, we had no ice bucket. My husband asked for an ice bucket and she was adamant that we had one. We did not. Luckily we had a small cooler we used. When we left the next morning, I got the bill and checked to make sure that we were not charged for the ice bucket. We had been travelling for 12 hours to get to Wall, SD, and this one employee ruined it for us. The other two Best Westerns we stayed at went out of their way to help us, and our little dogs. I will never stay at this hotel again. I don't like being treated this way.
We do apologize for the service that you were given step have been taken to remedy the situation.
Super clean. Beds are comfy but the pillows could have been better. Pull out couch was nice. Location to Badlands National Park was perfect. Breakfast was delicious and above average. Didn't use the indoor pool but the outdoor pool was enjoyable. Short walk to Wall Drug (if you must check it out). Would definitely recommend.
Thank you for taking the time to rate our property! We appreciate the feedback and hearing from our customers!
Stopped in for one night on our way to Black Hills - was a little worried as the hotel is a bit dated, but our room was very clean and everything was in working order! The staff that worked there were very hands on and friendly. The breakfast area was your standard hotel breakfast but what stood out to me was there were THREE employees in there cleaning and refilling the entire time. Super impressed! We didn't get a chance to use the pools which was too bad because they looked very clean!
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property!! We are please that we could exceed your expectations!
As other reviewers have said it is a wonderful family run motel. It is located just blocks from restaurants and Wall Drug. The breakfast was VERY good with a lot of choices for the whole family. We didn't get a chance to swim, but the pool was crowded and looked nice. Perfect place to stay when seeing the Badlands!
The room, breakfast and pool were great. I was just disappointed about being on the second floor because of having to climb the steps. I made the ground level request a couple of months in advance - it was difficult getting bags and a cooler up the steps. Otherwise we had a great stay, and I really enjoyed the outdoor pool.
Thank you for your response. Have a good day.
It did the trick, we arrived late and needed to leave early in the morning so it was a quick trip. It was clean enough, just dark and dated feeling. I'm not sure I would have enjoyed staying here for an extended period of time. Place to sleep.
Thank you for your response, have a good day.
This motel is family owned and I really like supporting those businesses. It is by no means a small motel. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and the staff was welcoming. There are lots of breakfast options and breakfast is served in the same building as the pool. The outdoor pool was well kept and lots of kids were making use of it. It is very close to “downtown Wall”, actually within walking if you choose to.
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property! We are so pleased that we could provide you with a great stay!
Booked hotel 4-5 months in advance. Family of 6 traveling. When booking they worked with us to get a price that was not way out of our budget...most places require two rooms, however they had a family suite that fit us perfect. Outdoor pool had a bunch of floaties. We did enjoy the indoor pool. Was very impressed! Beds were comfortable. Breakfast was filling. Highly recommend.
Thank you for choosing Best Western Plains Motel for your stay. We appreciate your response. Have a good day.
Local to everything in Wall, South Dakota and easy to access. From the time I entered the lobby and the greeting I received it was a pleasant experience. The room was updated tastefully and comfortable. The breakfast was heads above most with lots of choice and taste. Coffee was great.
Thank you for your positive response, have a great day.
Motel is family run. Everyone with whom we had contact went out of their way to make sure we were satisfied. Very clean. This is a relatively old motel, but furniture is updated, rooms are large, bedding is firm and comfortable. Only suggestions would be to remove bright white fluorescent lighting over sink (too harsh), add softer lighting (floor lamps?) within room to brighten things up,and remove glossy beige paint. Breakfast area seemed to be popular, but we did not eat there. Would definitely stay here again.
Thank you for your response. Have a good day.
Got a good priced room for a very last minute decision to stop. Room is super clean and prepared for any visit. For a touristy area, this did well in presentation. Only negative thing is the walls are SUPER thin. I was woken up a few times from my neighbor coughing because I thought she was in the same room. Not a huge deal for me, but could be for others.
Thank you for your response. Have a good day.
This is very sweet place to live in, nice surrounding, very close to famous Wall Drug store and good facilities beyond expectations. Receptionist was very warm and greeted us well, they have parking available in-front of every room. we booked room with 2 beds that was well equipped with basic amenities like TV, AC, coffee machine, basin etc and in clean state, clean bathroom (hair dryer too). Breakfast is really good which is served in the building opposite to reception house and they have pool area as well. It was more that what we expected for sure.
Thank you for your response, have a good day.
Great stay at Best Western Plains in Wall SD. Very clean and quiet property. Breakfast was hot, tasty, and good variety. I liked the location of the hotel to Wall Drug. Decor in lobby was really nice and clean.
Thank you for your positive response. Have a good day.
My wife and I are moving from Montana to Massachusetts and we own a cat, this was a very affordable hotel that allowed pets. The property I felt was much cleaner than had expected for the price. It is in a small town so there isn't much around but had comfortable clean rooms with a great shower.
Thank you for your positive response. Have a good trip and good day.
This is a wonderfully warm and welcoming staff and family that try very hard but the age of the property undermines the effort. The newesr building housed pool, workout and breakfast area and was more modern. The buildings housing the rooms need a complete remodel. They were sparkling clean but old and tired.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review on our property. We are in the middle of a remodel for the motel and are updating our rooms. We hope you will stop back if you are in the area and give us another chance.
We needed a nice clean, place to stay for our trip to the Badlands, and picked Wall. Of the choices in Wall (not many), it seemed like the Best Western would be our best option considering that the local competition consisted of an EconoLodge, a Super 8 and a few local low-budget motels. The Best Western is a very old roadside motel. Doors open to the outside, the floor on our first floor room creaked, and bathroom space was exceptionally cramped. The bed was moderately comfortable, but it definitely had several years on the mattress. The wireless internet in our room kept dropping every 10 minutes and had to re-acquire a signal, so their wireless networking infrastructure is lacking. Breakfast was below average. If you want oatmeal, be prepared for a bland packet to heat up with hot water. The chairs in the breakfast room screech on the hard floor every time they are moved. The owners seem to take pride in the fact that this is a family-owned, family-run hotel. That's all great, and when your competition is an EconoLodge, a Super 8, and a few local run-down hotels, then I guess the Best Western is great. However, all it would take is one Hampton Inn, Holiday Inn Express, or Marriott property to compete here, and the Best Western becomes a third-rate motel. I can't use the term "budget motel" in regard to this property because our room with a king-sized bed ran $160 per night with taxes. That's simply too high for this class of a motel. Again, considering the nearby competition, I guess they can get away with this kind of pricing for now. They got me!
We are so sorry you had this experience at our motel. We do try to take pride in that this is a family run business, but we also want take pride in our motel appearance. We are always trying to make the motel a better place for our guests. We will use your feedback to help with this and improve. Thank you for taking the time to review our motel, and we hope you will give us another chance in the future if you are in the area.
This place was very nice! The staff was very nice and helpful. The room was clean, comfortable and a good size. The bathroom is a little small, but manageable. It was right near things we wanted to see, like the Badlands. The town of Wall is fun.
Thank you for your positive response. Have a good day.
Clean, well maintained property and rooms. Quiet location. REAL breakfast included. Nice breakfast room with real eggs, sausage, oatmeal, breads, all the beverages. I tried another less expensive motel in Wall but this is a great place to stop.
Thank you for your positive review and thank you for choosing Best Western Plains Motel. Have a great day.
Really enjoyed our visit to Wall Fri before Easter. Loved the family suite with the 2 queen beds & full size in extra space. Room was clean the staff was really friendly. Our grandkids loved the pool !!! And the offerings for breakfast were great too,
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property!. We are so pleased that you had an enjoyable time at our property!!.
Great family owned old school motel in Wall. Old school in the sense that all doors open to the parking lot, with parking spots directly in front of first floor doors. We were on the first floor so I don't know about an elevator. Rooms were spacious and well maintained. Sink separate from toilet and shower. Bed was comfortable and there was no outside noise as the motel is in a C shape just off the street, not the Main Street either. Breakfast is served in another building, the one in the middle of the parking lot that houses the workout room and the pool. Wrong time of year to test the pool and too lazy to use the equipment, but did note it was a well appointed room. Breakfast was good for motel breakfast, with lots of options including a pancake machine. Room might get full during tourist season, but probably some outside options in better weather. Love some of these old style motels, but not all. We loved this one.
Thank you for your response. Have a good day.
This is exactly what an affordable motel should be like. The staff are friendly. The rooms are clean. The breakfast is decent. The clientele consists of elderly tourists, families with children, and outdoor adventure seekers.
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property!!
This is a family-owned motel. The care and the pride that the family takes in its business is very obvious. They are warm and friendly which helped make our stay with them even more enjoyable. The property is just a short drive to Badlands National Park and is minutes from local restaurants and the famous Wall Drugs.
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property! We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us and we hope you will come again next season!!
Touches of home while on the road. The owners spoil you with the decorations, Free Cable TV, Generous Breakfasts, and a Hot Choclate Bar (Seasonal Surely). Everything seemed clean and fresh. We loved our stay.
Weather conditions forced us off I-90 sooner than planned but the Best Western Plains Motel had rooms available. The front desk clerk was friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable - very nice king size bed. The free breakfast had a good variety of options - a great way to resume the drive on a cold morning. Family run, well staffed and maintained. All the above for a very reasonable price!
Thank you for your response. Have a good day.
Great location- right off the highway, but within walking distance to Wall Drug. Clean spacious rooms for a reasonable price. Enjoyed complimentary hot chocolate served in the lobby in the evening. Family run business.
This is a very nice hotel in Wall. The staff are helpful, friendly and strive to please their customers. I definitely like the personal touch of hot chocolate and marshmallows that I looked forward to when we returned for the evening.
Thank you so much for taking the time to review and rate our property! I am very pleased that you enjoyed the Hot Cocoa Stand!
This place had everything you could want -- two swimming pools -- one indoor and one outdoor. A wonderful free breakfast and a clean room (nice sized) with firm mattresses. The staff were very helpful and friendly. It's also within walking distance to Wall Drug and other local attractions. As an aside, the hotel has wonderful policy of encouraging their staff to bring their children to work in sort of an apprentice program. At breakfast each day we observed two charming young girls who were helping out. They were cleaning up, refilling supplies etc. Think this is a great idea -- very family friendly.
We once again traveled to this area and stayed at the same Hotel we have for the last few years. We love the friendly people here. This year was a little more crowded and the noise of the neighbors above and beside us was not what we have been used to but all in all it was a great time. We will stay here as long as the service is up to the same standards it has been for the past several years.
Thank you for thinking of us each time you are in our area!
Highly recommend, would stay here again. Slept great..bed & pillows definate winners!! Breakfast, fitness room & pool did not disappoint. Outstanding staff, great location. Bacon with breakfast would have been better. :)
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property! Thanks for the idea on bacon!
I spent 2 nights at the Best Western Plains Motel. The location is very convenient for visits to Badlands National Park which is just a few miles down the road. The room was clean and comfortable and the service friendly. The breakfast provides a number of options. My issues were the table in the room was too small to do much work. Also, I got locked out of my room due to a problem with the lock and had to wait half an hour in the cold before the issue was resolved.
Thank you for your response. Have a good day.
Overall not many options in Wall. Happy with our stay here and would do it again, just not a fan of the town. Wall Drug is over priced, over rated, and feels like a terrible tourist trap. Several other restaurants told us they could not serve us because they didn't have the staff. The bright side was we ended up going back to the Badlands at sunset because it is so close, and that was awesome.
Thank you for your response. Have a good day.
Overnight stay in Wall, SD while visiting Wall Drug Store on way to Badlands NP. Staff was amazing & friendly. Served breakfast in an outer building where indoor pool is housed. Recommended hotel Stay.
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property. We are pleased that you recommend us to others!
Staff was good. The room was older and in need of a overhaul. The breakfast room and the pool were in a seperate building than the rooms themselves so did not find this very convenient when it was cold outside. Not horrible but not my first choice for sure
Thank you for your reply. Have a good day.
Room was clean and bed was comfortable. Did not have any problems with anything in the room. Staff was very helpful on selecting places to dine which is always a plus. Breakfast selections were great as there was scrambled egg and sausage as well as the usual pancake and waffles. Couldn't asked for better. Liked the little park they have for your dogs and the clean up station. I don't think you can do better for the price especially if you are traveling with your dogs. A little drive to Wall Drug and other restaurants. There is a subway a short walk away and a Dairy Queen a little further down from subway. Definitely would stay again
Thank you for your positive response, have a great day.
Friendly staff, clean room, good internet service, breakfast, and close to some of South Dakota's best attractions. I would definitely stay here again. And I will recommend it to my friends and family.
Thank you for your positive response. Have a good day.
After a hard day of driving, we checked into The Plains. The room was large and clean. The beds were extremely comfortable and the the covers perfect. Breakfast the next morning provided more then the usual "free breakfast" fare.
Thank you for your positive response. Have a great day.
Excellent service. A very clean, good sized room with comfortable beds. There is a vanity with sink behind a half wall. The bathtub and toilet are is a rather small room. They have a strong vent fan in the bathroom to keep the moisture down. The breakfast was good and had a large assortment of items. If in the area again, I would definitely stay here.
Thank you for your positive reply. Have a good day.
I thought this was a perfectly adequate nice hotel. Breakfast had a lot of choices. I'm not saying it was an awesome breakfast but it was decent. very normal pretty modern hotel in a good convenient location.
Thank you for your reply. Have a good day,
My wife and I spent three nights here during our visit to the area. The hotel is a family operated older property that has been well maintained, is very clean, provides a full hot breakfast (eggs, sausage, French toast, pastries, fresh fruit, coffee/tea and juices to name some of the items) and is a 20 minute drive to the Badlands and the Minuteman Missile sites. The beds were very comfortable and the HVAC worked well. Coffee/tea and popcorn are available in the registration lobby and there was an indoor pool that we didn't have time to use. A good place to stay in Wall, SD for a very reasonable price. If you found this review helpful, please let me know by clicking on the thumbs up button below. Thanks!
Thank you for your positive reply. We appreciate your business. Have a great day
Very nice for a small town hotel. Clean, safe, & great bed, Will stay there again on next vacation to Black Hills. VERY convenient to Badlands. Don't like writing this review which requires a minimum number of characters,
Had the opportunity to stay here for only one night unfortunately. This is by far the best stay I have had in years ! Rooms were large and everything was in perfect condition. Nice firm bed. The bar has been set high by the owners. Other hotels should have standards as high !
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property! We are very pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us!
I guess I am shocked that not ALL hotels have torn out all the carpeting in hotel rooms and put in Pergo or tile. The carpeting was not the cleanest and the pillows need to be replaced. However, the room itself was clean and the breakfast was good.
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property!
This is a family owned business and it shows. The room was really comfortable and clean. The staff was helpful. It was quiet and centrally located. We had a king size bed without requesting it. The price was very reasonable.
Thank you for your response. Have a good day.
No road noise. Room clean. Water plenty hot and plenty of water pressure. Strong wifi signal, fast enough for hi quality youtube videos. Breakfast 6 to 9, hot items included breakfast sausage and scrambled eggs. Seating a bit limited if there's the morning crush. Checkin checkout no hassle with the prepay option, rate very reasonable. Would stay again.
Thank you for such a great review! We thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property.
Considering this is an older style, i.e. doors open to the outside, it was very quiet. Rooms had obviously been updated to have adequate plugs ins for electronics. Front desk personnel were friendly, Only downside is the breakfast area is small for the size of the motel and was congested, few places to sit.
We had to wait around for check in since this is a busy place and our room was not ready. Ok. The room was big and clean. Lots of flies though. Breakfast was ok but again, busy place so lots of people at breakfast. It's pretty much like every other Best Western. I found it a little expensive for the quality of the room.
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property!
The room was very clean & updated. we had 4 adults & had plenty of room for our things. The breakfast was the best we ever had. There was tortillas, scrambled eggs, sausages, French toast & more. very friendly staff.
Thank you for your reply. Have a good day.
This room was one of the cleanest we stayed in on our multi-week road trip. The room was spacious and had nice furniture. The shower was good, as we're the linens. The air conditioner was old and very loud. Even earplugs didn't mask the sound for me. The coffee in the room and at breakfast was pretty bad. Breakfast was not to our liking. Check-in was pleasant despite the rush of people.
We had a king room with a bed on the firmer side, which was nice since we've had so many super soft beds on our trip. Other than having a bit of a strange odor, it was very clean and neat room with towels rolled in a heart shape on the bed surrounding a kind, welcoming note to enjoy our stay. The shower had awesome water pressure and a good shower head! The towels and linens were a bit thin, but still functional and soft. I enjoyed the complimentary breakfast, especially having tortillas to make a breakfast soft taco. One can appreciate the pride this family has in maintaining their property and I would definitely stay there again.

Wall is a very small town but this is a larger motel. Best breakfast we had out of the 6 motels we stayed at on our trip. Rooms are dated but very clean. Enough outlets for charging electronic devices but the outlets are not the most conveniently placed. Visited the pool area and was impressed. Be sure to reserve early as this motel fills quickly. We stayed in the family room - 2 beds with a another bed in separate room. Would have been nice if second room had it own TV. Looked like they were in the process of doing that as the wiring was there but no TV mounted yet. The room was small and tight but you don't notice that once you're asleep.
Thank you for your response. Have a good day.
We stayed one night. The room was nice. DON'T STAY HERE WITH PETS. What ruined it for us is when we went out for breakfast we left the "do not disturb" sign on the door and left our dog in the room. A bit later I check on my phone and I have all these calls from the motel saying they found the dog in the parking lot. We went back I talked to the lady at the desk she said that the maintenance guy found the door open. I was like ok weird, but they do have those lever handles so maybe. Then I go to the room the bed is stripped, and I realize the opens in so even if the dog did jump up on the door it would also have to be pulled inwards. I love that dog, but she is not determined enough to figure something like that out, and has never stripped a bed. So obviously they ignored the "do not disturb" and then lied to us. If she had been hit by a car or something would they even have call me?? We are not staying there again.
Thank you for your response. Have a good day
My husband and I traveled to Wall, SD during our trip to the badlands. Upon approaching the hotel, it was obvious that the Best Western stood out from the surrounding hotels in the area. The hotel itself looked modern and upgraded. The staff were extremely friendly (Especially Esther) and helpful. The room was cozy, clean and had a fridge and microwave, with flat screen t.v. The breakfast in the morning was delicious and included meat, eggs, french toast, etc. They also had an upgraded fitness center, indoor and outdoor pool and hot tub. The only drawback was that the indoor pool was not heated (it was too cool) and the hot tub was too hot. But this was minor compared to the rest of our amazing stay! This hotel is 7 miles from the entrance of badlands park, about 30 minutes from rapid city expressway exit, and about 1 hour from Mt. Rushmore. I would definitely recommend!
Everyone really nice @ this hotel. And the breakfast was great, couldn't ate a resturant this well. They had everything that you could think of for breakfast. Check-in &out very freindly. Housekeeping did a good job too.
Thank you for your response, have a good day.
The beds are in poor condition because the mattresses must be at least a decade old. The beds feel lopsided. The fridge is not large enough for a family that brings their own food with them. If you are on a ground floor room, you can hear ever footstep your neighbor above you makes. The positive things are that the room is large for a family of 5 or 6. The pools are nice. I would have rated the hotel 21/2 stars but it doesn't have that option.
Thank you for taking the time to review our property; we appreciate hearing back from our customers. We are looking into replacing our beds soon; we apologize that the bed in your room was uncomfortable. We will be remodeling some of our rooms this winter; we will look into what we can do for sound proofing between our second and first floor rooms.
This is an older facility which has been remodeled. It still has the basic look of an older motel where all the rooms have outside entrances. The room was spacious and comfortable. The free popcorn is a nice extra. The breakfast was much better than most similar motels. It was extremely clean. There is no elevator so be ready if you are on the second floor. It has an outside and inside pool and good fitness facility. My only complaint is with the pillows which are too small. I think all Best Westerns use the same pillow.
Thank you for taking the time to review our property; we enjoy reading feedback from all our customers. We will look into different options for pillows with our approved Best Western suppliers.
Room was clean and pleasant. Property has a nice indoor-outdoor pool. Breakfast is great, with large selection of hot and cold items. The staff, in making reservations over phone (website indicated no rooms) and at check-in/check-out, was very helpful and pleasant. Recommend calling hotel directly if website indicates no availability; it apparently locks out at a certain point to prevent against overbooking.
Thank you for your response. Have a good day.
Called about 5 hours before our arrival and the staff accommodated us nicely. We got a room with a king bed. The room was large, bed somewhat comfy, shower was very good. Parking spaces are small if you have a large vehicle and don't want dings in your vehicle. The complimentary breakfast was one of the best we had at such a hotel. All in all a good stay.
Thank you for your response. Have a good day.
The location of this motel was good for a visit to The Badlands National Park. The room was clean. Very small bathroom. We had quite a few flies in our room. Breakfast was just ok. No one budding tables so we had to sit at a dirty one. A bit overpriced.
Thank you for your response. We appreciate your business and comments. Have a good day.
Nice hotel. Convenient to Wall Drug and Badlands NP. Well-furnished, although so much furniture that a table had to be over the AC. Adequate bed. BUYER BEWARE: There is no elevator. That information could not be found on their website.
The room was generously sized and furnished. Everything was sparkling clean; the care of local ownership shows. Breakfast was nothing outstandingly special, but quite adequate. The coffee was excellent! We would certainly stay here again if we returned to Wall.
Thank you for your positive response. Hope you will be able to stay with us again.
Nice place to say after a long day on the road. Convenient to the downtown to view all that was available. Breakfast was good in the morning also. People were friendly and parking was good. Downtown also had good dinner options.
Thank you for your response. We appreciate your business here at the Best Western Plains Motel in Wall, SD.
It is not fancy and is not new. It is however very clean and well maintained. The staff was all super friendly and very responsive to any request. Breakfast was good and included. downtown is within easy walking distance.
Thank you for your positive reply. Have a good day.
The hotel appeared clean and nice with nice front desk personnel, however when we entered the room it smelled of mildew and mold. Glad I was staying only one night, as I was afraid I would end up sick as a result of that odor.
I do apologize about the room smell that is not the usual with our rooms, we will be making sure that the issue is resolved.
Stayed here on our trip thru The Badlands. While checking on vacancies, I was told that there was only one room left available for the night. Fearing that we would have no place to stay, I decided to go ahead and book the room. I was informed that because it was same day, we could not cancel and I did agree to that,after all it was a Best Western Hotel. Upon arrival, the desk clerks were very nice and we proceeded to our room. After opening the door, we were greeted with a very bad, musty,over powering odor. The room was outdated, but appeared clean. The very worst part was the flies in the room. I don't know if housekeeping leaves the door open when cleaning, but my husband killed a total of 23 flies. We would have left, but had already paid $ 175.00 for this room and it was the last one left and non-refundable. We had no choice but to stay the night. We stayed out of the room as long as possible and got up early to depart. We did check the breakfast area before we left and it was clean. I will say the breakfast was good. I would never stay at this hotel again, and in hind sight we should have booked a room in Rapid city.
I do apologize about your stay. We are working hard to get the flies under control, unfortunately they have been very bad in the area this year.
We stayed her on our trip to Mt Rushmore/ Badlands. The beds were pretty comfortable. The pull out couch was not. It wasn't even comfortable to sit on. It was pretty clean and the people were friendly. The breakfast had a few extras that other hotels didn't which made a difference. And even though it was convenient to the Badlands and Wall Drug, it wasn't a good value for the price. While I would definitely stay here again, I would consider elsewhere because of the price.
Thank you for your response. Have a good day.
We stayed here for one night during a cross country road trip and it was great! The bed was one of the most comfortable we had on the entire trip and the room was very nice. Breakfast was good with a ton of options. We didn't use the pool but it looked very nice and clean as well! The location was great to go check out Wall Drug and also was really close to the Badlands National Park. I'd definitely stay here again and recommend it to friends and family!
Thank you for your response. Have a good day.
This hotel was located a few blocks off the interstate and yet it was just a few blocks to the attraction of Wall Drug. The room needs updating. It's probably been a decade or more. It was an ok room but I found it really expensive. The breakfast buffet was very good and the staff was on top of things
Thank you for your reply, we do appreciate your business. Come and see us again. Debbie
The room was clean. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful. Great location for Badlands and Wall Drug. Breakfast was better than average. However....This is a very tired property. It would be greatly enhanced with new linens, towels, carpet, and furniture. I would not stay here again given a choice of a different property.
Need a room near Badlands? You definitely need to stop at the Best Western, a nice clean hotel with two pools, excellent breakfast and in walking distance to the center. I absolutely recommend this place!!!
First time in the area... pleasant surprise. Clean room with comfortable beds. We only stayed for one night. Good breakfast selection with availability to make your own waffles. We would definitely stay here again when in the area.
Thank you for reviewing our property! We enjoy hearing back from our guests!
Good place from which to see the Badlands. Typical motel. Standard room and bathroom. Very noisy air conditioning with no way to cut the noise except to switch off. Nice enough pool. Buffet breakfast. Quite pricey.
Thank you for taking the time to review our property! We enjoy reading feedback from our guests. Unfortunately we are aware that our air conditioners tend to be a little noiser. We have tried to research what kinds are the quietest and best for a motel, and what we have has been rated highly and other motels in our area use that kind as well.
Stayed 1 night while travelling south Dakota area. Has everything you need - decent room, good breakfast, lots of parking, and a rare outdoor pool. Only about 8 min to Wall Drugs Store and downtown. Would recommend and stay here again if in the area.
Thank you for taking the time to review our property! We enjoy reading feedback from our guests!
The front staff were real nice. The room we had was clean but small on the 2nd floor landing by the stairwell. No refegerator if you can imagine that. The breakfast was very good. Did not have to go to the pool area to eat.
Thank you for your response. Have a good day
Been here a couple times, spent the fourth here this year for the Interior rodeo. The best parts of this hotel are the pool (s)! and the great.breakfast. As far as appearance and update, this isn't a value for the 180.00 + we paid. No doubt this hotel is clean, and the people were nice and cared for us and our room. This one typically would fall in the 79.00 price range. But in Wall, this stands out as the best of the pickings.
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property.
This is a pretty good choice for lodgings if you're visiting Badlands National Park. The Pinnacles entrance is just 8 miles away. The rooms are pretty standard for an older motel. Everything was clean and the A/C was super effective at cooling the room down. The refrigerator in my room turned out to actually be a freezer, as it froze the bottles of water I put in there. Not necessarily a bad thing since it was hot outside. The included breakfast includes the normal donuts, pastries, cereal, and yogurt. They also throw in eggs, sausage, and french toast. All standard hotel breakfast quality. The one hiccup was I tried to check-in at 12 PM and was told that check-in was at 1 PM. The clerk didn't really even check to see if a room was available. Apparently it's a hard and fast rule.
Thank you for reviewing our property; we enjoy feedback from our customers. Unfortunately when you tried to check in, our front desk may not have known what rooms were ready. We have people that check the rooms (make sure the maids did their jobs) around 12 PM. Our apologies again for this one hiccup.
We stayed here after a day of hiking in the Badlands, and on our way to Yellowstone. The staff was very friendly! The room was very clean! Nice pools- indoor and outdoor. Everyone was very friendly! We booked ahead, and glad that we did. We had 5 people, and they had a great 2 room suite with 3 beds. The breakfast was very good. Overall great stay!
Thank you for reviewing our property; we enjoy hearing feedback from our customers.
This was a great stop on our way to The Badlands/Black HIlls/ Mt. Rushmore area! Everyone was so friendly, the rooms were very clean and the breakfast service was perfect!! We had a lot of fun with the automatic pancake machine:):) Highly recommend to any type of traveler--solo, family or groups.
Thank you for taking the time to rate and review our property! We are very pleased that you enjoyed your stay, especially the pancake machine!! :)
Stayed here passing through town. Have been to Wall previously, but stayed elsewhere. Nice indoor and outdoor pools. Had a great breakfast (make your own omelets and pancakes). Only issue we had was there was not enough places for people to sit when eating breakfast. Rooms were very clean. Staff had great recommendations for places to eat. Set up like a motel with doors to the outside. Great experience.
Will stay at this hotel again if in the area. Very nice professional staff, nice location, nice rooms. Price was excellent for the area. Hotel staff went out of their way to be helpful. Will stay again and suggest to others in the family if they are in the area.
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property. We are pleased that we could provide you with an excellent stay.
Stayed at the Best Western Plains Motel for one night after touring Badlands NP while on a cross country trip. The hotel is close to the highway and to everything Wall has to offer (Wall is a small place). The staff was friendly, the room was large, clean and quiet. There are two pools: indoor and outdoor. That's a perfect feature for families. The breakfast was served in the same building as the indoor pool and was a decent hotel breakfast. This is a good place to stay in Wall.
Thank you for taking the time to review are rate our property! We are pleased to read that it fit your needs.
This is a great place to stay and I should know because we've stayed there once or twice a year for at least fifteen years in a row. The rooms are comfortable and clean, the outside is well maintained and the breakfast is great! They have nice amenities. I highly recommend this hotel!!!
Thank you so much for your loyalty to our property! We look forward to your return visit!
We were so happy with this hotel! It was within walking distance to Wall Drug, and had both indoor and outdoor pools for the kids to burn some energy after a long drive! Rooms were clean and well maintained. We stayed just one night and it was the perfect place to stay on our way to visit the Badlands the next day before continuing on to Keystone for the week.
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property. We are very pleased that we could provide a safe was for the kids to burn off some energy.
Traveling through the Badlands and stopped for one night. Comfortable accommodations for a moderate price. Average breakfast. Friendly staff. Would stop here again. Nice hot tub and pools. Free Wifi. Close to Badlands.
Stayed here one night while visiting Wall, South Dakota.Clean room, comfortable bed and well stocked continental breakfast. Clean outdoor pool, friendly staff. Room was ready when we arrived. No issues.
After hot summer days in SD and 4 hours spent in The Badlands, it was so nice to check into a modern, cool motel for R&R. Our room was larger and very comfortable. Though the motel is relatively large, our room was quiet. We had good wi-fi for the teenager and an extensive list of cable TV channels for me. There is a nice pool and a breakfast room with lots of choices. Since Wall is Very Small, everything is within walking distance and The Badlands are just a few miles down the road. I'd happily stay here again.
Thank you so much for reviewing our property! We enjoy hearing from our customers about their experiences and if there was anything to improve upon!
This is a wonderful old fashioned hotel that is clean and in a good location for the Badlands. You could drive up yo your room. It is two stories with no elevator.Our room was small and dated but we had good water pressure and good wifi.The breakfast area was clean and roomy with plenty of good food. The pool is outdoors and clean. We loved that it is family owned and you can tell that they care about this place. We will stay here again.
Thank you so much for reviewing our property; we enjoying hearing from our customers about their experiences and if there is anything we can improve upon!
I traveled with 2 grandaughters ages 11 and 12 and a grandson age 9. We had a ground floor room, spacious and clean. Check in was easy, very nice women. Fridge in our room. Pool and breakfast was across the driveway. Nice breakfast, nice indoor and outdoor pool. Easy access to I-90 and a bit of a walk to town but not too bad where Wall Drugstore is and parking can be a problem. Wounded Knee museum very close too. Subway and a nice convenience store in the gas station very close. Badlands entrance a few miles down the road.
Thank you for your response.
Not convenient to the main drag --6 blocks or so--so you do have to drive to the shopping area. The indoor outdoor pools are very nice. Small but very clean. NO Help or elevator to get to the second floor. So make sure you ask for a ground floor room. The rooms are comfortable and very clean. Breakfast was delicious. Many different selections. Makes up for the high cost of the room.
The Best Western Plains motel was not what we had expected, however this refurbished 70's style motel did not disappoint. The rooms were spacious and clean, and the staff was attentive to our needs. The hot breakfast was enjoyable and plentiful. They could expand their breakfast location. due to the many rooms and guests the space was at a premium and needs a major expansion. Overall our stay was good and we were happy with the value received for what we paid.
Thank you for your response.
Wall is a good location for Badlands and Buffalo Gap Grasslands. Not many choices for hotels and this one is ok. It is walking distance to several restaurants in this small town. The bed was a little soft and our room on ground floor was a bit noisy when people walked in the upstairs room. The bathroom was also a bit small. They did have good wifi - fast and good coverage. The Free Breakfast was typical for this type of hotel. The staff were all very nice and friendly. They sell out most nights in season so make a reservation. I would probably stay here again as there are not many other choices but hotel is not great.
Considering that this place is in Wall, a middle of nowhere town with not much to do, and populated with tourists and other budget hotels alike, this was definitely an excellent choice of stay. The rooms were not outdated, spacious, and contained a mini fridge and microwave—the basics (that some other Best Westerns don't have). The front desk was friendly and check in was quick and smooth. Our room was stocked with plenty of towels and other necessities. We were greeted with a welcome message by the housekeeper written on the notepad and a letter explaining about the hotel's owners. Their approach was welcoming and made our stay more personal. We stayed 2 nights and the housekeeper again left a nice note thanking us for our stay. They also folded a towel into a heart and replaced all our towels even though we didn't request them to. Their breakfast was excellent —eggs, sausage, bacon on another the day (for meat eaters), a pancake machine, French toast, and then of course, the basics. It was an actual meal; we didn't need to find breakfast elsewhere both days. They also had a sign stating that gluten free and non-dairy items were available by request. I would recommend this place to anyone going to Wall. If we go there again, we will definitely stay at this Best Western.
The room would have been nice, but really needed updates. Carpet badly needs to be replaced, it's old smelly and stained. Our room smelled pretty bad - like mold and urine - partly because of the carpet, and partly because of the air conditioning units, which looked like they were 30 years old and smelled like the filters have never been changed or cleaned. Beds were clean but not very comfortable. My daughter complained that her sheets were damp - maybe because of the humidity, or maybe they weren't fully dried. The pool area was nice, there's an indoor and an outdoor pool. The area restaurants are very disappointing and the only thing to do in town is Wall Drug, which is okay if you like touristy things. My advice for anyone traveling to the Badlands area would be to stay in Rapid City. It's a bit of a drive, but I think it's worth it.
We are very sorry that your experience was not up to your standards. We are in the middle of a complete re-haul on all of our rooms. Last winter we remodeled 25 rooms and another 25 rooms will be remodeled this winter, while we are closed. We will be using your comments to improve our rooms. Once again I am sorry for your experience, but hope that you may give us another try after our remodel is complete.
We've stayed at the Best Western Plains Motel twice. Both times were great. The check in process is fast with friendly staff. The room is a standard room but it's very clean and smells clean. The beds are comfortable. Our son plugged the toilet while there and staff arrived within ten minutes to fix the problem. The maintenance man that arrived was friendly and unplugged the toilet in minutes. The breakfast is far better than most in this price range. The staff is constantly filling food when it gets low. Absolutely no complaints about the BW Plains Motel.
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property. We are very pleased that we could make both of your stays great!
Stayed one night in Wall at the Best Western, family of 4. Room was dated but clean. Check in was no problem. Included breakfast was standard but crowded because served in a small room. This motel style facility would be considered over priced most places, but everything in Wall is tourist priced, so if you stay in Wall, it is not too highly priced.
Beds were comfortable. Plenty of towels. Coffee pot, micro, fridge. A big family runs this hotel and all work together to make a beautiful and comfortable place to stay. We stayed a night on June 4th, 2018. Room was CLEAN, COLD, and QUIET. We were a family of 3 adults with 2 children. Our granddaughters loved the cool clean beautiful pool. We will definitely stay here again if we are in the area.
We stayed here for a photo workshop and I have nothing but positive things to say. Very clean. Friendly and very helpful staff. This hotel is very well managed...the stay was effortless. Really enjoyed the free popcorn machine in the lobby. This place made our business stay a pleasure!
This Best Western motel was a great find very close to Wall Drug and a few miles away from Badlands National Park. This is a family-run location, as indicated by a letter that you'll find in the room in a sculpted towel (see traveler photos) upon walking in, which is nice to see. Our room had 3 rooms - 1 large room with 2 beds and a couch, a small bedroom, and a bathroom - all very comfortable and clean. Cable TV selection is also very good. There are two pools - one indoor, one outdoor. The indoor pool area is very clean and good for families but it could be a bit warmer. We didn't get to have the continental breakfast but saw preparation for the morning starting rather early. The lobby area also has a room where you can pick up some snacks, including popcorn. This motel is not far from Badlands National Park or Wall Drug. You can actually walk to Wall Drug from here. Enjoy!
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property. We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us an hope to see you again in the future.
Overall nice stay front desk staff was very nice and accommodating. Room clean and ready. I didn't use the pool but I looked in and it seems nice and clean. It's within walking distance Wall Drugs. Free breakfast the usual nothing special about it, clean and got.
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property. We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us and we hope to see you again.
Breakfast had lots to chose from. Pools seemed very clean. Super friendly people working here. Room was dated but clean and comfortable. Fitness centre was lacking free weights but had a decent bike and treadmill. (Did not use the ellliptical).
This was a very nice hotel. Beds were clean. Housekeeping forgot toiletries, so make sure you have backups. Good parking. Nice table for eating or playing cards. Very convenient location if you're visiting Wall Drug. Nice free breakfast.
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property. We do apologize for the forgotten toiletries. We are pleased that you enjoyed the rest of your stay with us.
This is an older motel. It was clean but worn. The bathroom was dark and old but clean. If we return to this area in the future, we will drive on to Rapid City and stay there instead of staying in Wall.
I stayed here on May 10th. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean. I enjoyed the hot tub. The breakfast was good for a quick start of the day. This hotel is close to area attractions. This is the second time I have stayed at this hotel and if I am in the area again, I would stay here again.
We stayed here on the way back from Montana and it was a clean, comfortable place and the staff was very friendly. I would definitely recommend it. They have a hot tub and a pool and the breakfast is excellent!
Over-priced notel with breakfast that was mediocre. Our room had a somewhat funky smell that might have been from the parking lot that seems to have been recently black-topped. The town and Wall Drug are not worth the stop.
The room was quite large & the microwave & fridge were handy. Nice breakfast. We didn't use the pool or hot tub but they looked inviting. Staff were friendly & expressed their desire to assure a good stay.
We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us. We hope you will come again.
We stopped at the Best Western in Wall while visiting the Badlands. The room was dated, but very clean. The indoor pool was freezing (which didn't stop our kids from splashing around for a couple hours), the hot tub was perfect. The pool area was clean and nice. The continental breakfast was great! Eggs, sausage, pancakes and more - it was great to have a full breakfast before our day hiking. We would stay here again!
We stopped here on our way to Wisconsin and this was a very nice stop. Hotel staff was friendly and helpful. Room was clean and well maintained with some extra touches that added to the stay. We stayed with dogs and there was a grass area to walk them.
I highly recommend staying here to make your trip and access to badlands memorable as the staff on all levels make you feel at home and cared for it makes it easy to enjoy the shops and the sites close by
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property. Thank you so much for such a high recommendation. We are very pleased that you felt at home and that we did a good job taking care of you. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
The location was great, although probablt the best option for the location. The hotel was dark and dated and didn't feel overly clean. The breakfast was goid and had a nice variety. Due to the convient location would probably stay at this location again.
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate the motel. We are sorry to hear that you felt that the hotel is dark and dated we are in the middle of a remodel and recently installed new outdoor lighting. I hope that you can return again and we can have the opportunity to change your mind.
Stayed here for one night to explore the magnificent Badlands NP. Staff very friendly, room clean, recommend upstairs for less noise. Breakfast was a good selection of the usual offerings plus a few extra (French toast, pancakes). The only negative is that the room-to-room noise is considerable, and in our case the TV being turned on at 3:30 am in the room next to ours made for a difficult night's sleep. Not sure how this can be avoided, especially since we requested a quiet room. Overall a pleasant stay, and conveniently located to the Badlands.
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property. I do applogize about the the TV noise. We will be looking into it and coming up with a solution.
The motel is an o,def property but is well maintained. The beds were very comfortable. The breakfast had a lot of variety, more than you usually receive with a complimentary breakfast. This motel is a little different because check in time is 1 p.m.
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our property. We are pleased that you enjoyed you stay with us!
This was our first time staying at this Best Western in Wall, SD. We were pleasently surprised with the quality, cleanliness and comfort we were provided. Breakfast is served in the pool area and there is a good amount of seating space with plenty of options available. Staff at the front desk were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend staying here and will likely choose this hotel again when visiting the area!
Thank you for your recent stay with us. We are pleased that you enjoyed our property. We hope to see you again in the future.
The staff was so accommodating, seeing as how we pulled up at 11:00 pm needing a room. They were fast and efficient when it came to putting us in a room and that was much appreciated. Our room seemed to be newly remodeled and was very clean. All the amenities and electronics were in perfect working condition and the bathroom was spotless. They had a pretty good breakfast selection that went above the normal continental breakfast spread. Overall, this was a great hotel and we will definitely stay again if we are in the area.
This Best Western was your typical Best Western with the same design, styles, and amenities. Clean, cozy, wonderful motel breakfast, free parking, and friendly staff. Nothing new to add to that. The hotel was about a 8-10 minute drive to the entrance to Badlands National Park. You literally could even walk into the town of Wall where there's plenty of shopping and restaurants. We chose this hotel due to its close proximity to these two locations. Perfect for getting up in the morning and hitting the Badlands before it gets congested with tourists and perfect for grabbing a bite to eat in town after a day of being a tourist. Other than that, there's really nothing else nearby. It's probably an hours drive to Rapid City Regional Airport. Maybe an hour and 45 minutes to Mount Rushmore. If I was ever in the Rapid City area again, I definitely would consider Best Western Plains Motel as a place to stay again providing I would want to see Wall or the Badlands again. Otherwise, it's kind-of far from the more populous area of Rapid City with more things to see and do. The only thing I'd suggest the motel could do to perfect itself is have a better checkout option for those who want to leave early in the morning. There were several couples, including ourselves, that didn't know what to do when waiting for the front desk to open. Some just left their keys inside their room while others waited to be checked out properly all while maintaining their final receipt. We chose the later. Even though it worked out well since the morning sun hadn't crept up the horizon at that hour, it would have been nice being able to sleep in an extra hour knowing the front desk wouldn't be open when we got up.
thank you for your comments. We will make sure the front desk knows to specify we have express check out meaning you can leave in the morning when you want as check out is complete. I am sorry you were not given that option but thank you for letting us know and we will make sure to express it better. Thank you for choosing Best Western Jackie Heathershaw owner
Wall is the idea location to visit the Badlands National Park. The Wall Best Western Motel is a great place to lodge. The room was clean and came with a frig and microwave. Bed was comfortable and quiet. Breakfast was good and had many options.
Thank you for your response, we appreciate it. Have a great day.
We have come here every year for the past 5-6. The rooms are ok, but the help is what makes this place so great. We enjoyed breakfast while we were there. The thing that we did not enjoy is the party people that stayed above and beside us. Putting children in upstairs rooms is bad but the adults that toss things stomp around and yell are worse. They shut down half of the rooms forcing all visitors to the front of the hotel which meant each room was full. It has been good but next year may require a change.
Cindy, We appreciate that you came back to use for several years. We are so sorry about your experience this past stay. About this time of the year, we shut down half the property to start updating rooms and doing maintenance on that area of the motel. I do hope you will stay with us again, and hopefully we can accommodate you so that there will not be noisy people above you.
Staff was helpful. They provided local information. Asked for and got a first floor room. Breakfast was very good for a motel breakfast. Motel grounds seemed very clean and neat. I didn't use pool which was in a separate building and it was cold out.
Thank you for choosing Best Western and taking the time to fill out the survey. We are happy to hear you had an enjoyable sty with us and we hope to see you again. Your business is very important to us. Thank you again for staying with us. Jackie Heathershaw owner
We were very happy with our stay. Room was very nice. We stay with our pet so in some places the rooms are a little rough - but this one was very nice. Breakfast here was really good. Lots of selection including hot eggs and meat. Would gladly stay here again!
Thank yo for choosing Best Western and staying with us here in Wall, SD. We are happy to hear your stay was a good experience. We appreciate you taking the time to leave comments for us as we use them to help us improve in any way we can for the next guest. God bless and we hope to see you in Wall again soon. Jackie Heathershaw November 8, 2017
Spent all afternoon in the Badlands National Park and needed a short rest before heading back to the park for sunset views. Hotel was right off the highway and had easy access. Easy access to the interstate made sunset in the Badlands very doable. Walking distance to downtown to Wall Drug and downtown Wall. Nothing special about the hotel. Rooms were clean and neat. Room rate $107.
Thank you for choosing Best Western and for staying with us in Wall. WE appreciate your business and all your comments as they help us to better serve the customers. We hope you come out this way again to see the park and tell your friends about it too. Jackie Heathershaw owner Nov 4, 2017
Nice place to stay. Clean rooms great staff wonderful group of people to meet. Breakfast was awesome nice variety of food . Nice places to eat and within walking distance of the hotel. Small town with a big personality.
Thank you fro taking the time to leave comments for us. We are happy to hear that you had great experience in our little friendly town of Wall. Spread the word to your friends and family that we are a great stop over for any kind of trip. Also, I am glad the accommodations were up to standard for you as we pride ourselves in service.
Pros: Very Clean Fan in the bathroom....a plus Nice bathroom fixtures Great soap! Water pressure good Water in shower super hot Free Breakfast Plenty of parking Easy to get into town Easy on and off of the freeway Refrigerator was COLD Microwave updated Indoor and outdoor swimming pools Hot Tub Beds comfortable-four pillows, etc. Cons: Decor in our room was dark, so it gave the appearance of being old...but it wasn't Usual highly processed, over salted, powdered breakfast fare.
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our motel. We are please that everything was to your liking. We will be looking further into ways to improve breakfast.
An older, "remodeled" property, redone with poor workmanship, that is minimally maintained. No elevators, tight parking, and the outside lighting was not working on most of the upper balcony and steep stairways, Front desk personnel sent us to a restaurant for dinner where we waited for 15 minutes and still no one had even greeted us or given us a menu. Other hotel options did not look much better. Our advice would be to go ahead an visit Wall Drugstore but choose a different town to overnight in. For comparison, the older BW in Spearfish, MT was very nice.
Thank you for completing the survey regarding you recent stay at our property. Your business is very important to us and we value your feedback. Debbie
Who knew Wall, SD would have such nice accommodations? Good location, nicely appointed room, quiet, clean, friendly and well-priced. Breakfast was fun with the pancake machine. It was crowded with families and younger children, which made the morning bustle even noisier and hard to navigate if you're trying to get to what you need. But overall it was a great experience, and the property is obviously cared-for by the owner/family. Thanks for making the stay so comfortable.

This Best Western was extremely clean and comfortable. The people at the front desk were very helpful in answering questions we had about the area. The breakfast they served in the morning was a typical hotel breakfast, there were three people in my group and we all found something that we enjoyed. The location of this Best Western is also amazing! its so close to Wall Drug, (a great place to shop).

This was the second time I've stayed here and it's been updated all around since my last visit. Loved that the refrigerator has a separate freezer compartment that actually works. Great for refreezing ice packs for the cooler. Room was clean and comfortable. Staff friendly and helpful. Best reason for returning in the future - great breakfast buffet with lots of extra added touches.
There is nothing better than having a customer say they will come back again. Thank you for staying with us . Your business is very important to us. We love hearing all comments and hope you spread the word about the friendly little town of Wall. Jackie Heathershaw owner
We had a delux queen room which was clean and comfortable, though the bathroom was tiny. The location is great for Badlands. Breakfast was acceptable. Hotel very busy and quite noisy. But it did the job.
We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us. If you have any other recommendations for our property we would love to hear them.
Best Western in Wall was a most comfortable, pleasant stay. It's worth more than one overnight stay as you drive across country. Beside the famous Wall Drug Store which is right down the street, the area offers so much more. The beautiful Badland National has hiking trails for all abilities and a great scenic drive. The Minuteman Missile sight nearby is very interesting. The beds and pillows were comfortable and the room very clean. Staff was extremly friendly..always with a smile and a good morning. The breakfast was hearty with plenty of hot choices and was kept well stocked even during the busy times. Although the indoor seating area was small, and was too cool for the outdoor seating that is provided. The indoor pool is also a nice feature. A recommended lodging choice.
Thank you so much for your comments. We appreciate your business and it is very important to us that we give our customers and enjoyable stay. We are happy too hear you had a great time in our small little town of Wall. WE hope to see you again soon. Jackie Heathershaw owner
Nice, clean, comfortable room. Received an upgrade. Gave a military discount. Good breakfast. Excellent staff. Convenient to Interstate. Easy access to Badlands National Park. I would definitely use this hotel again.
Thank you for taking the time to leave comments for us. We appreciate your business and it is very important to us. We use ll comments to help better our service to all. We hope you come see us again sometime and tell your friends bout the friendly little twon of Wall. Jackie Heathershaw owner Oct 11, 2017
The room was OK, the area was OK, the breakfast was OK, the location was OK. The problem is, I expected something a bit better than OK for the price we paid. My wife and I stayed in Wall while we were on a 21 day road trip. We stayed in a lot of hotels/motels; this was not one of the better price/value stays.
Thank you for your comments. We are sorry you did not enjoy your stay and want to know what we can do to improve our service to you and others. We appreciate your business and hope we hear from you soon. Jackie Heathershaw owner
Checked in about 9pm local. Parking lot was almost full and trucks with trailers lined the street. Teresa at the front desk found two rooms for us on the ground level (bad knees and no elevator). She remarked about our accents (an exhusband from Kentucky had schooled her ear) and let us know about the pool, breakfast and where ice was available. When we asked she gave us easy directions to the Badlands Saloon & Grill. The facility is not new but the rooms are updated nicely, spotlessly clean, and decorated with accents appropriate to the area. Bed is comfortable, linens are well laundered, for all that the parking lot now has no empty spaces the place is quiet and feels very safe. I look forward to a good sleep and a convenient breakfast in the morning. Not sure I will ever make it back to Wall South Dakota but if I do next time I will reserve a room. Thank you Best Western Plains Motel!
Thank you for taking the time to review and rate our motel! We are very pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us!
We love the Black Hills and visit frequently. On our way there we always make sure to Stop at Wall and stay in the Best Western Plains motel. For the area the rates are fine and the rooms are always clean and comfortable. Great breakfast and indoor and outdoor pools! Blocks away from Wall Drug which is a great piece of Americana. Highly recommended!!
We appreciate that we are a mandatory stop on your itinerary. Thank you so much for taking the time to review and rate our property. See ya next time!
We spent 2 nights here in September 2017. Great location to visit Badlands and great breakfast. Room was clean. We had the room with 2 rooms since there were 2 couples. It was a little small but adequate for us. Would stay there again.
Our visit to this hotel was a short, but very nice experience. The room was clean. There was a sweet heart made out of a towel on our bed! Our room had everything we needed. The hotel is close to Wall Drug, restaurants, bars and gas stations. The breakfast was tasty.
Thank you for your comments as we appreciate them and your business. it is all very important to us. We hope you come see us again soon and tell others of the great little town in Wall, SD Jackie Heathershaw owner
Everything about this stay was great. Rooms were clean, showers were hot, and the breakfast was exceptional. I would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Wall. The pool area was very clean and the pool and hot tub were very enjoyable. It was only a few blocks from Wall Drug and we were able to walk to it.
Thank you for your comments. Your business is important to us and we are happy to hear you had a great stay. We hope to see you again soon. Jackie Heathershaw owner
This hotel is good, it's just that I am spoiled to staying at newer and more elaborate hotels, and this was the best hotel in Wall. The employees were friendly and helpful. The hotel was quiet and the bed was comfortable. They have good internet connection. They do have a swimming pool. Breakfast is the typical foods but well displayed. My complaints are very worn linens and towels and drab decor of room. I am very sensitive to smells and something in the room bothered my allergies. It could have been room spray. They are pet friendly, so be sure to request a pet free room if you have allergies. They do not have a laundry, but just a block or 2 over, there is a laundry mat that has several machines. We stayed in Wall on our way to Custer because we didn't know how far we would have to drive to find another hotel. We discovered the next day that it was only 51 miles to Rapid City where there were an abundance of newer hotels.
Very comfortable experience in Wall, SD. Ideally located to visit Badlands National Park. Motel style with hotel comfort. The complimentary breakfast was outstanding. Close to the town of Wall where Wall Drug is located, a quirky western store housing a restaurant, gift shop, western wear shop, and other local plains paraphernalia.
We were very pleased with the stay at The Best Western in Wall. We arrived late afternoon / evening and were checked in by a very friendly and helpful lady at the front desk. The room for the price alone would have been enough to give this motel a high rating, but in addition we had the best free breakfast we've had at motels in our travels.
The hotel had a good location, staff was friendly, rooms clean and adequate.....we were satisfied with our roo . The hotel was full but service remained good. They also have breakfast included with your stay.
Easy location to get to, exceptional service, very clean, huge breakfast selection. I stayed here 15 yrs ago. It is obvious the owners take pride in the property. Everything felt very up to date and fresh. Good WiFi, too.
Thank you for taking the time to leave your comments. We appreciate your business and strive to keep things up to par for all our guest. We are happy to hear you had an enjoyable stay with us and your business means a lot to us. We hope to see you again in the near future. Jackie Heathershaw owner
We had a very nice room on the 2nd floor. No elevator and I had requested a 1st floor room if no elevator, but that was through Expedia and they couldn't accommodate us. I asked the man at the desk if someone could carry our suitcases upstairs for us and he did so very willingly. Very nice young man. Room was clean and sufficient, no problems whatsoever.
Special note on bed upon arrival, clean rooms, courteous staff. We were very happy and surprised at the hospitality and charm beyond a normal Best Western Hotel. Flowers in the lobby, etc. This management went the extra mile and we appreciate that.
A good place to stop for the night. The staff is friendly and quite helpful. Rooms a spacious and comfortable. I liked the fact that the next morning, there were towels on our motorcycles to wipe the down with. Best Western is always motorcycle friendly!
We really enjoyed our stay at the Best Western in Wall, SD. The motel was well taken care of, plenty of parking, good variety of items on the breakfast bar, fantastic pool/hot tub and within walking distance to everything.
The hotel was very clean, and the employees were very friendly and helpful. When deciding on a place to stay near the Badlands, choose here. The complimentary breakfast was surprisingly amazing. They had plenty of hot food items available.
Thank you so much for your comments. We appreciate your business and like to hear how your stay was with us so we can try and improve our customer service to all. We are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay Jackie Heathershaw owner
We stayed one night here on our way to Mount Rushmore. It's a typical small town motel but friendly and the room clean. They say it's a continental breakfast but it's more than that. There were hot items like eggs and sausage and warm tortillas. When we arrived in our room a towel Had been rolled into a heart and placed on the bed with a note from housekeeping to enjoy our stay. Nice touch.
Our plan to visit the major attractions, Mt Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Deadwood, and the Badlands were accomplished using Wall as a home base. It is even doable to drive to Devil's tower and back through Custer State Park. There are plenty of walking areas around Wall and the Visitors Center is friendly and informative. Of course we had to experience Wall Drugs too! Best Western worked well for us with our terrier although I wish they had a nicer outside pet area.
Better than the standard breakfast. Clean rooms, friendly staff. Complimentary treats for my dog. Close enough to Wall Drug to walk. Tiny grass dog park behind the building. Hate those ones that are just rock!
Good stop on the way to Mount Rushmore. The town of Wall is very small. The Besr Western appeared to be the nicest choice. It was clean and updated. Wall is a good stopping point if you have been driving all day. We started our touring the following morning. Restaurants are extremely limited. Might as well eat at Wall drug.
Reasonably priced, clean, convenient to freeway. Room was spacious (we had 2 queen beds), shower had non-slip in tub. Did not have an elevator. I'm 67, in good shape, but would rather take elevator to 2nd floor when hauling luggage. Breakfast had many hot and cold options, biscuits, gravy, sausage, eggs yoghurt, and a pancake maker. One night. Definitely would stay here again.
This town was our stopping point after a very long drive from Minneapolis. Wall is a beautiful little town and Best Western couldn't have been nicer. The staff was friendly and helpful. Our room was quiet and comfortable. We had a good nights sleep and enjoyed a delicious breakfast, then we were off to Keystone, SD
This was a nice, updated room, that was simultaneously spacious and a bit cramped. We had a room that contained a queen bed in the main room and two queen beds in a separate bedroom (that had an actual door). The queen bed took up most of the space in the main room, so the only seating (besides the beds) was a tiny table that had two chairs. There was a window in the bedroom, but not the main area. The vanity area was huge (really nice), but the bathroom (containing tub/shower and toilet) was super cramped. We were on the second floor (top floor), and it was really quiet. The breakfast was good. It seemed pretty updated and the beds were comfortable. The front desk staff was friendly and quick. I'd stay here again.
than you for your comments. we are sorry to hear that things were a little tight for you but the rst of the stay seemed great. thank you for your comments as we use them to help better our service for others. I am happy to hear breakfast was satisfactory. Thank you for choosing Best Western. Jackie Heathershaw owner
Slightly outdated. Not a lot of options in Wall so I think this is best choice. Pool area was great for grand kids. Breakfast selections were good but breakfast area was small and strained to handled number of guests at motel. One night a tour bus pulled in and created massive over-crowding in breakfast area the next morning. Easy walk to Wall Drug. Food options limited around motel. Rooms small unless you get rooms on South end of Building. (i.e 275 etc)
I am sorry to hear that the breakfast rea cgot over crowded. Weare working on that situation and hope to have it resolved for future guest. Thank yoou for choosing Best Western and thank you for you comments and we will use them to help better our service. Jackie Heathershaw owner
The hotel was clean and tidy. The breakfast was hot and good. The hotel is in town and close to wall drug which is why we stayed there. I would recommend the second floor if footsteps from above bother you however there is no elevator.
Thank you for your comments. We like to hear them ll nd use what we can to help better our service to others. We are working on trying to get in an elevator. We are happy to hear you had a great stay overall and thank you for choosing Best Western. Jackie Hethershaw owner
Beds were incredible! Staff is top-notch! Check in was so easy and front desk staff was very helpful. Rooms were very clean and comfortable. My family and I plan on staying here again on our next trip out West!
We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us!
Room needs updated. Hotel is convenient to interstate but not really within walking distance of tourist sites unless you have no problems walking. The pool area is nice and the breakfast was served in the lobby of the pool house. One of the better breakfasts we had. Really liked the pancake machine.Staff were accommodating.
Thank you for taking the time to rate and comment about our motel. We are very pleased that you enjoyed the pancake machine!
Room was clean, bed was comfortable. Had mini fridge and microwave. Staff was friendly. No issues for us. I wish they had a price for those of us who don't want to use the pool or eat breakfast though. I just need a room that's clean and comfy.
thank you for your comments on your stay with us in Wall. We appreciate all comments and use them to help better our service to others. thanks for choosing Best Western and we hope to see you again sometime soon. Jackie Heathershaw owner
The front desk staff was efficient and welcoming. Exterior is quite dated. Our room was spacious but had a musty smell and worn furnishings/towels. It was sufficient for a one night stay while traveling.
I am sorry to her that you had some discomfort with your stay. We will make sure and check into your problem. We appreciate your comments and thank you for choosing Best Western. Jackie Heathershaw owner
You can see that there is pride of ownership with the BW Plains Motel. Family owned and operated. The staff knew their stuff! You can see that they are well managed and trained, But more than that, they were friendly, helpful, and smiled!
Well thank you so much for your comments. We try hard here at the Best Western and we are happy to see that our efforts show. Thank you for choosing Best Western and we hope to see you again sometime soon. Jackie Heathershaw
A good location to explore the Badlands, just 8 miles away. The room was as expected, basic but clean and comfortable, though a little loud. Thin walls made us hear neighbors' conversations and TV! All personnel we met was very friendly, breakfast good, but the room way too small for all guests, we had trouble finding a table both at 7:30am and 9am. We did not use the outdoor pool but it was available across the main building until 10:00pm.
Thank you for taking the time to rate and comment on our property.
My family and I stayed here for the night before visiting the Badlands. No issues checking in, the staff was friendly and courteous and my reservation was processed quickly. The room was clean and comfortable.
We always stay at this best western when we visit wall.its always clean and comfy and the employees are very welcoming to us...its close to all the excitement so we walk...they have 2 pools and a hot tub..normal quick breakfast provided...i really cant complain about anything...its a great place to stay when ur in the wall area...
What a nice surprise! Everything was perfect in our room -- cleanliness, working order, appearance. We were 2 people in a 2xdouble bed room and the amount of space and furniture was adequate. Microwave, fridge, and A/C unit worked properly (not too noisy). The team running this operation clearly takes pride in all its aspects. This is the motel to choose in Wall, and we will definitely use it next time we visit the area.
This Best Western was an excellent place to stay. The staff were exceptional and helpful, beds were very comfortable, pillows so soft and cozy, and breakfast was delicious. The hot tub was just perfect and the indoor pool was relaxing. Did not use the outdoor pool, but, many seemed to be having a great time swimming. Very clean.
We are very pleased that you enjoyed your stay at our motel!
I was passing through and looking for a good place to spend the night. I didn't have my Rewards card with me but the clerk found me in the computer and got me a good downstairs room. The room was clean and the people there were friendly, so I will go back if I am in the area again.
We are happy to hear you decided to pull over and stay with us for a night in our friendly little town of Wall. I am glad you stay was pleasant and we hope to see you again soon. Thank you for taking to time to leave us comments. Jackie Heathershaw owner
We stayed here for one night after touring the Badlands. The hotel is close to the western entrance/exit to the park, and we returned to the Ben Reifel Visitor Center later in the evening for a stargazing program (for the Perseid Meteor Shower). The hotel is just okay - nothing special, but not terrible. The room was a good size, but the beds were a little hard for my taste, and the pillows are cut-up pieces of foam stuffed into a pillow-case - common for Best Westerns. The kids liked the indoor/outdoor pool and the breakfast was adequate. So not a great hotel, not a terrible hotel, but your choices in the area are pretty limited, and for the price I'd say it's a good value.
I always find Best Westerns to be clean and comfortable. We've had good luck on our trips staying there. They have both an indoor outdoor pool. Breakfast was ok need fresh fruit though. Not much to say other than it was clean, comfortable, friendly and I'd go back.
We are please that you enjoyed your stay with us!
Rooms Small but nice, a bit dated but they have a indoor and outdoor pool, we did not use, fenced in, Breakfast area small, some outdoor tables, nice selection of breakfast items. 3-4 block walk to Wall Drug, Do take a walk there, and go through to the back, they have things to take pics on, like stagecoach, Jack-a-lope, Mt. Rushmore, A lot of vintage stuff, lots of places to eat, HD store. Nice place for family, do not miss,
Very happy with this property, great service. Would definitely recommend and stay there again. After riding motor cycles all day the bed was very comfortable and the hot tub was indoors to help soothe the aching muscles.
We are excited to hear that our motel met your expectations! We hope to see you again!
Best Western Plains Motel was a surprising quiet, clean, comfortable place to rest our weary heads. The staff was lovely to a person. A little spendy for Wall, SD but once we arrived and were checked in, it was worth it. The bathroom and bath amenities were bare bones but the bed was comfy, the main room decor was pleasant, and it was equipped w/ a microwave and fridge. WiFi was free and it worked (yeah). the location is convenient and it is dog-friendly.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment and rating. We are very pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us.
The staff were friendly and helpful. I felt welcome the moment I walked in the lobby after a long, dusty day on the road. We were on the 2nd floor, which was quiet and more private. The room was very cute with wood ceilings and beams. It made for an enjoyable stay in Wall.
My family and I stayed at this hotel for 2 nights while visiting Badlands National Park. It seemed to be one of the closer hotels to the park, at about 20 minutes away. Our room was on the first floor. It was clean and ready when we arrived. The hotel is older and (I think) has been renovated. My only complaint with the room was that the carpets seemed to be dingy. My socks were filthy after walking around the room for an hour! The pool was wonderful, as the temps were in the low 100's the days we visited. There is both an indoor and outdoor pool, as well as a hot tub. I suspect that that this is one of the nicer hotels in Wall... and there's not a lot to choose from.
Thank you for your stay at the Best Western Plains. We are pleased that we could accommodate you and that you had the opportunity to enjoy our pools.
Very friendly staff, had to book on the fly and got a great rate for what we needed for a family of 5. Very good breakfast, clean rooms and squishy beds. Definitely would stop again if in South Dakota
Thank you so much for your recent stay with us. He are very pleased that we met your needs.
We've just returned from a 6200-mile cross-country trip. This is our 4th cross-country loop that we've taken since we retired, and on this one we completed our goal of visiting all of the lower 48 states. We stay at hotels as we travel, and we have learned what we expect from a basic hotel room, and have used these expectations to rate the hotel rooms where we have stayed. This hotel was very clean, had new furniture, good wifi, and a nice tub with a slip-proof mat. Even though the temperature outside was over 100 degrees, it was nice and cool inside. One thing took us by surprise - the water was very, very hot. We learned to be careful.
We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us.
There were not many choices in Wall, but this was a good choice. The rooms were clean. Breakfast was typical hotel breakfast. Parking left was a bit tight. Staff was very friendly. When we arrived earlier than anticipated, they said they could check our bags until we could check in. Bag check consisted of an open access room. However, the check in was in a separate building, and you had to go by staff to get to where the bags were placed so it didn't seem to be that big of a problem.
Thank you for reviewing us on Tripadvisor, Robin. We use these reviews to help guide us in improvements for our motel. We are glad that you seemed to have a good experience at the motel. We will look into a different place to put baggage, so that there would be a more secure area.
Our AC broke, and we told them that morning. By the time we were back, they had completely replaced the unit. You can see staff working hard, and the owner is out "directing" in the mornings. Friendly bunch and work hard to make the stay positive. The motel is clean and efficient although the rooms were a little small for a family of 4. Breakfast is standard "free hotel" breakfast. It is fine.
Gald I was able to talk with ou guys that morning and also glad to know your air was working good after changing it. Thanks for staying with Best Western and we hope to see you again sometime soon. Jackie Heathershaw owner
This hotel gets 5 stars in my book. The rooms are very clean and the hotel grounds very well maintained. The beds were very comfortable and free break fast was really good. I will definitely stay here again on my next trip through.
We appreciate you taking the time to give us such a great review. We are happy that you chose Best Western and hope we see you again soon. We are a family run business and work hard to satisfy our customers . I am happy to hear it is working. Jackie Heathershaw owner
The facilities are clean, staff is attentive and nice, but breakfast is all that fake-ish, cheap egg and breakfast products; stick with toast, yogurt, and hard boiled eggs and it's fine. Everything is quaint but overpriced in Wall.
Thank you for your comments and we will use them all to help better our service to our customers. thank you for choosing Best Western and staying in Wall,SD Jackie Heathershaw owner
For the money and location, couldn't have found a better hotel. It's family operated, and the attention to detail was eveident in every area. We had 2 rooms, both large with 2 queen beds, and they were clean and bright. The housekeeper left a towel folded into a heart in each room along with a welcome note, which was a nice touch. The beds were good, the rooms clean, the staff very friendly and helpful. I travel for work and spend countless nights in hotels, and this experience made me as happy as any other stay in a large city with a higher-end hotel. I was frankly worried that a small town hotel would be more of a "motel" experience (run down, unclean, scary) but this stay changed my perceptions of what a small town hotel can be. Keep up the great work!
thank you for staying with us in Wall. We appreciate your comments and hope you get a chance to come our way again. Thank you for choosing Best Western. Jackie Heathershaw owner
This hotel is probably what you would expect in Wall SD but not what I am used to. The rooms are very outdated and old, but comfortable. It's within walking distance of the Wall drug store which is why we stopped for the night.
Thank you for your comments. We like to hear from everyone and use the comments to help better our service. Thanks for choosing Best Western. Jackie Heatherhsaw
This property was clean and very cared for. The room was great, the pool was a nice size, good size TV, you can walk to all restaurants in town. Breakfast was always good. The Badlands National Park headquarters is 20 miles away. Would stay there again!
Staff was very friendly and helpful especially the gal at the front deskGreat breakfast with awesome coffee. Pools and rooms were clean. Very nice place would recommend it to anyone staying in wall or passing through.
Our family stayed here as a stop on a 2 week road trip. Rooms were nice, as well as very clean. The staff was unbelievably friendly. Loved the personal note and towel shaped like a heart from housekeeping staff. I like that it was family-owned and that they took obvious pride in their business. Breakfast was good, with large selection of items. Only complaint about breakfast was the scrambled eggs.
I stayed one night at the BW Plains Motel on my way cross country. I was in Sioux Falls and arrived at 1:30 pm. The room wasn't ready, so we drove a few blocks to see Wall Drugs. Afterward, we checked right in. From the hotel, it's only a 5 minute drive to Badlands National Park. Breakfast was good and the coffe was excellent. I was very satisfied with the stay for the price I paid.
Close to town, clean rooms, friendly staff. I would recommend to anyone looking to stay in Wall. A must see in Wall is the Wall Drug store. This is the place to stay if you want to see The Badlands. Which is a must see too.
This property is your typical middle of the road Best Western. Location is good if you are visiting Wall Drug and the Badlands. Parking is a challenge. Person who checked us in was not the most pleasant or helpful person I have ever dealt with when giving my money to someone. Who knows, maybe she had just dealt with too many tourists that day... On the flip side, the person we dealt with at check out was very friendly and pleasant. Pricing is definitely set up to take advantage of weary travelers in a giant tourist trap. Room was ok, but beds seem to have been used repeatedly by a heard of mating elephants. Most certainly time to replace the badly sagging mattresses. The pool area was very nice, with both indoor and outdoor pools, including a hot tub and exercise facility. In a town with few options, this facility was OK, but probably not somewhere I would look forward to staying again, and especially not before the mattresses are replaced.
I apologixe for my staff nd hope the resr of your trip was a great experience. My staff will see these comments and we will try to improve our service to others. Jackie Heathershaw onwer
As I looked around Wall, it seemed common for hotels to have an open second floor accessed by stairs. However, I didn't expect this of a Best Western. The room decor was '90's style at best, but the lobby had been redecorated in the past year. I guess they are going for first impressions.
We are sorry to hear you did not enjoy your stay with us. We hope you try out other Best Westerns in the future. We do our best and use all comments to help improve our business and will use your comments to better our service. Jackie Heathershaw owner
The rooms are up to date, comfortable, and clean. The staff is friendly and ready to help. The pool area is nice. The breakfast is ok (eggs tasted horrid but the rest ok). Even though the place looked full it was quite. It is near the freeway and the Badlands so good location. If you are passing through I would recommend.
Thank you for your review! We are glad that you enjoyed your stay!
This is a traditional motel circa 1960's, as in, drive right up to your room's front door. And my wife and I NEVER stay at motels any more. However, the place is immaculate, our room interior--the walls, ceiling (a very nice wood design), carpeting, TV and furnishings--was all new. And tasteful. The beds were comfortable, and there were enough electrical outlets. The Plains Motel is family-owned, and family members were visible everywhere. Better still, their standards are very high. And their free breakfast was a notch above the others' free breakfasts. Given all of this, the Plains Motel is a sweet nostalgic experience without the creature comfort sacrifices usually associated with nostalgic experiences. it's not the Ritz. But then, service and cleanliness rated just as good as any five-star hotel. Loved the place.
This is our 2nd year staying here during our family vacation. Rooms are very clean. Staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast even offered some gluten free options which was huge for our family. Upon request the had gluten free cereal, and Glutino bars. The lady in breakfast area was very helpful.
Thank you for choosing Best Western and thank you for staying with us in Wall. We are so happy to her you had great experience with us and we hope to see you again next year. Lets make it 3 in a row Jackie Heathershaw owner
My wife and I were on vacation in South Dakota. Since we wanted to see the Badlands, we decided to spend the night in Wall South Dakota. Wall does not have very many hotels; therefore, we decided to stay in the Best Western. It was way overpriced for the quality of the hotel. The room was OK, but it was not worth the price. I will stay in Rapid City the next time that I am in the area.
We are sorry to hear that you did not have a great experience with us in Wll. We appreciate all comments and do use them to try and better our service to others. Thank you for staying with Best Western. Jackie Heathershaw
The personal touch was nice, from rhe note from housekeeping, to the letter from the owners. Breakfast was very good having some items that as not normally on thr menu. Room was clean and comfortable.
How nice of you to take the time to compliment your stay with us. We hope to see you again soon and tell your friends about Wall. Jackie Hethershaw owner
Not the best hotel overall but from what we could see for Wall, SD there's is the best. Room smelled pretty bad near the AC. Kinda urine-y but probably just stale. The shower was awful though. The water temp fluctuated the whole time. (We didn't report it but should have).
I am so sorry you had a not so great experience with us. This is not up to our standards and we will make sure and check into the problems that you incurred. Thank you for staying with Best Western and do not let experience influence your stay with other Best Westerns. Jackie Heathershaw
Nice, clean, great service. Breakfast was good and fresh. Nice staff. Beds were firmer than we prefer - but worked for one night. In the morning - hand towels were left on the seats of our motorcycles - as were others in the parking lot. It was a nice touch to dry off the previous nights rain. Enjoyed the clientele that were there at breakfast - very family friendly.
thank you for your comments and we appreciate your business. We love serving to our bikers and pe you come see us again soon. Jackie Heathershaw owner
We decided to stay here because of the other trip advisor reviews by others. The hotel was only 8 miles from the badlands and was clean, quiet, and had very good breakfast. It had indoor and outdoor pools, which sounded like the kids were really enjoying. The staff were very friendly and helpful. This is a family run hotel and it looked like they were having and good time while getting their jobs done. The rooms were comfortable and had a fridge and microwave. This is a great base of operations while visiting badlands, custer, and mount rushmore. Best thing, it was about $100 cheaper than the rapid city hotels we checked into.
Thank you so much for taking to time to give your comments. We appreciate your business and are happy to hear you had a great stay with us. We pride our self in our family run business and hope you tell your friends about the great small town in Wall, SD Jackie Heathershaw owner
We used this hotel merely as a place to sleep while we visited the Badlands. The room seemed clean, though the smell was not very pleasant. The continental breakfast wasn't great. We had to park on the street one night due to a full lot. The beds were fairly comfortable, but we could hear ALL the running that took place above us!
I apologize for any inconvenience caused to you during your stay. this is not up to our standard of service and we will make sure and work on the issues mentioned. thank you for staying. We appreciate your comments nd use them to help better our service. Jackie Heathershaw owner
This hotel was very clean and staff was friendly. They have a nice pool area and hot tub, one of the only hotels with a pool in town I believe. Their continental breakfast had a huge selection of food.
Thank you so much for taking the time to give us your feedback. We are pleased to hear that your stay went well. We hope you come see us again soon. Jackie Heathershaw owner
Super tired -- like out of the 80's but they charge a high price because you are in Wall. Go figure what the big deal is. Two queen beds. Thin towels. So so carpet. Thin walls. There are no selections any better in this area. Sleep. Pack. Leave.
$160.84 with all the Discounts, and Taxes etc. was Pricey! Tourist Season was coming into full spring with this Over Rated Tourist Town. Not one of the Best we stayed at so far! We always try to use Best Western or Quality Inn if we can depending on the Pricing and the Area we are at. This one here was not one of the Best as I stated!
This is just an average older hotel. Nothing to brag about. Fairly clean and no problems. Older hotel that has probably been there for quite a while. Can't expect much when not near larger cities. If you like breakfast, probably has better than other hotels in the area since some only had a continental breakfast and this one had hot items available.
The staff was excellent!!! Very polite and helpful with local attractions and directions. We were in a suite which was huge and had 3 beds. Clean and well maintained. Had an indoor and outdoor pools. Breakfast was good the only bad thing is not much space in the dining area for way too many people.
We are so happy to hear you had a great time while staying with us in Wall. we hope you come back again and seeus. Tell your friends about our friendly little town in Wlall, SD We hope to have more space in the breakfast area soon. Thank you Jackie Heathershaw owner
This hotel is in need of some TLC, the beds were hard. There is not an elevator, we had to carry our bags up to the 2nd floor - exterior hallway was well worn indoor/outdoor carpeting that was fraying on the edges. The price should be lower for the worn look (inside and out) of the hotel. We did not use either the indoor or outdoor pool so we can't comment on them. The breakfast was good.
I m so sorry to hear you did not enjoy your stay with us. We will definitely look into the issues you spoke of and try to better our service for everyone. We appreciate your comments and use them to try nd help ourselves and our staff to improve. My sincerest apologies to you. Jackie Heathershaw owner
The room was clean and spacious. The wifi was fine and breakfast was good. The kids enjoyed the pool, although it did get crowded. The reason this hotel doesn't get 5 stars is because the beds are pretty terrible. We didn't sleep very well at all. The staff was friendly and the location was good.
Thank you so much for your comments. I am sorry to hear that you did not sleep well. We will check your folio and see wht room you were in nd see if we cant change the bed situation . We use all comments wether good or bad to try and improve our service so thank you again for staying and commenting on your stay. Jackie Heathershaw owner
While the motel needs to be upgraded and the indoor pool needs to be actually heated, I'm very disappointed in the Best Western rewards program. When we first signed up in 2014 it was touted as "stay 2 nights get 3 nights free." Bogus. Since then we have stayed in a total of at least 12 nights and had exactly 1 night free. The points system is so out of whack and works against you so that it takes tens of thousands of points just to get 1 night free at a run of the mill motel that's not fancy at all. For example, using a points system in another program I can stay at a nicer motel for a fraction of the points that it would take for a night at a Best Western motel. I get way more value out of my credit cards point systems. This is the last summer I stay at Best Western. Adios.
I am sorry to here that your experience with Best Western has not been top rate. I will make sure the right people hear of your comments and we will see if we can improve on our Rewards system. Thanks for taking the time for the survey and once again we do apologize for any inconvenience to you and we hope to better our service Jackie Heathershaw
The Best Western Plains is an older property that has been thoroughly and completely renovated and remodeled into a first rate comfortable inn. EVERYTHING IS CLEAN! Hard to say honestly these days but BWPlains is clean. Pools, wifi and breakfast rocked. Cool, comfortable and close to everything in Wall. Will definitely be back!
Thank you so much for your comments. We like to hear everything and use all comments to try and help better ur property. We hope you come to our small town of wall again with the big hospitality Jackie Heathershaw owner
This was a very pleasant hotel. We stayed for two nights while we explored the Badlands and visited Wall Drug. We will for sure stay here again if we do an out west trip. Breakfast was great and that pancake machine is great! I ate way too many because of it! LOL!! Room was clean and comfortable and our kids very much enjoyed the pool. Can't wait to visit again!
The pancake machine is a new installment we are very excited that you enjoyed it! Thank you for your response. Please come again!
Traveling west on motorcycle trip, hotel was a nice stop with good quality for the rate in a very busy town. I would recommend this hotel while you visit Wall. Check-in staff was very nice and informative. I have never had a Check-in clerk offer me the snack or extra points because I was a Harley Davidson member of Best Western rewards!!
We are so please to hear that you enjoyed our motel! Please come again.
We stayed two nights here to visit the Badlands and Mt. Rushmore. The hotel is perfectly placed for the Badlands; just a few miles down the road from the hotel is the western entrance to the park, and Mt. Rushmore is about 45 minutes away. The hotel is a bit old-style with the room entrance directly from the parking lot (making it a motel, I guess), but the rooms are up-to-date with flat screen TVs and lots of outlets for charging devices. Nice size rooms, comfortable beds, very little noise from other rooms or parking lot (and there were lots of family groups there), free breakfast and both and indoor and outdoor pool.
We re so glad you chose to stay in Wall. We are a small town with big hospitality. Please tell your friends about us and thank you for your comments, We use all comments to try and approve our service. Jackie Heathershaw owner
Stayed at the Best Western in Wall for 1 night. Room was clean, staff very friendly and the breakfast was above average for a BW. Great location since it is only a couple of miles down the road from the badlands and you can walk everywhere in Wall. I would stay here again.
Thnk you for your comments. We are happy to here your stay went well. We hope you come see us again soon in our great little town in South Dakota Jackie Heathershaw owner
We were traveling to the Badlands of South Dakota and stayed in Wall. The Best Western was a welcome spot to relax and enjoy a break from travel. The hotel staff is very friendly and helpful. Right after we arrived we noticed we had a problem with the brakes in our car. The staff was helpful and gave excellent recommendations while making our stay comfortable as we worked out details to get repairs made.
I am so happy to hear you had a great experience with us here in Wall. Tell your friends and we hope you come see us again soon. Jackie Heathershaw owner
Pleasant updated room. Well equipped. Comfortable beds. Good breakfast. Wish there were an onsite washer/dryer so we didn't have to spend time in laundromat. No other recommendations. Recommend while traveling through the area.
Thank you for your comments we are working on getting a laundry facility on the premises so it is nice to hear it is definitely needed. Hope to see you again soon and appreciate your business Jackie Heathershaw
We always try to find a Best Western when we travel and this hotel was a pleasant surprise in the little town Wall, SD. Very friendly checkin/checkout staff, clean rooms with comfortable beds. Nice pet area behind the motel. Indoor and outdoor pools with a very nice fitness facility. Trailer parking alongside the street, but very safe. Really good breakfast as well.
We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We appreciate your comments and hope to see you again soon. Tell your friends bout us and enjoy the rest of your vacation. We love a happy customer Jackie Heathershaw
Everything about this motel was pleasing. Our room was spacious, in excellent condition. Bed was very comfortable.. We were travelling with our dog and made to feel welcome. Would definitely stay here again.
thank you so much for your comments. We are happy to her you found we were a pet friendly motel. Please come see us again soon. Jackie Heathershaw
Excellent value, location, free breakfast and indoor/outdoor pool and spa. Family run and were helpful and understanding when our car broke down in the parking lot. Walk to wall drug and restaurants. Room was clean and we'll appointed. Would stay there again.
Thank you for your comments. We appreciate them and your business. I am glad you had a great experience with us and we hope you come see us again soon. Jackie Heathershaw
This hotel was found to be very well appointed with a very large room. The king bed was very comfortable with a nice selection of pillows. Very close proximity to the famous Wall Drug as well as right at one of the gates to the Badlands. Location could not have been more convenient. Very cheery and welcoming staff from the desk clerk to the room maids. Was impressed with the little extra touches placed in the room by the room maids. Those touches are not the norm in the travel industry. Breakfast was very good and plentiful for our tastes. Served in another building so had to go outside to get there. On a nice day not an issue. Would stay there again.
Thank you for your great comments. We are happy to hear you enjoyed our small town atmosphere and your stay with us. Tell your friends about Wall and come see us again soon. Jackie Heathershaw
This Best Western well exceeded my expectations. The lobby was very clean, friendly staff and complimentary popcorn. The rooms are 'motel style' with the doors on the outside. The rooms were very clean. The room we had had a slightly musty smell, maybe a smokers room. The continental breakfast was great. French toast, make your own breakfast burritos and breakfast sandwiches. Something for everybody. I would totally stay here again if going through the area.
Glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We will check to see what room you were in and make sure we take of the smell you thought may be there. We are happy to hear it was a great experience with us nd we hope to see you again soon. Jackie Heathershaw owner
This hotel had some of the friendliest staff of any hotel I've been in. Everyone we came in contact with was friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and had a personal note from the person who cleaned it. My only complaint was a couple families who dominated the indoor pool area and seemed set on breaking as many of the rules as possible (drinking beer in the pool area, children unsupervised, a 3 or 4 year old taking running leaps into the hot tub). But this was not the fault of the staff - just inconsiderate guests.
If we ever head back through Wall, South Dakota, we will stay here again! We booked our room at the last minute. (The hotel gave us a better price than we could get online!) The double queen room was Big and clean! The hotel staff were all very friendly and helpful. The Wi-Fi was FAST! The indoor pool and outdoor pools and hot tub-great! The breakfast eating area was large and comfortable and the variety was huge- eggs, sausage, donuts, toast, coffee, tea, Cocoa, and more! Gluten and dairy free available upon request. TV nice too! No complaints at all. We found out this property is family owned. And it is right behind wall drug! Loved it!
How great to hear that you enjoyed your time with us here in Wall. We are happy to hear that our staff was great and we hope to see you again sometime soon. Tell your friends about our small town hospitality. Thank you Jackie Heathershaw owner
After spending day in the Badlands, checked in, extremely friendly staff. And that is where the positive comments end! First floor room had an unpleasant odor, needed to spray room, vents and curtains! Quiet night till 4 am when the upstairs guests arrived! Slamming doors, dragging suitcases and heavy walkers, possibly a first floor room for late arrivals? Breakfast staff unfriendly, seemed to be inconvenienced when I asked if there was any more plain oatmeal packages, no fruit choices! The topper was upon returning to room to check out and use bathroom,after first flush, it overflowed! When we stopped at the front desk to check out and inform them of the toilet , I asked if there was a restroom I could use, I was bluntly told to go to pool house! I did and had to wait! Lo and behold I was waiting for the same unfriendly breakfast lady. Not even a smile, nothing! This had been our 5 hotel stop on our 3400 mile road trip of the national parks. Such a bitter end to a wonderful trip!
I am so sorry for your bad experience. We are not usually like this and this is definitely not up to our standards. I will speak with all staff involved and make sure we reprimand anything that needs fixed. WE pride ourselves in our small town hospitality and failed to do this for you on your stay and apologize whole heartedly. We hope you come back to our small town again sometime and gives us all another chance. Jackie Heathershaw owner May 31, 2017
The pillows where nice and fluffy. No flat pillows here. We have been on the road the last seven days and the beds at other hotels have been fine except the pillows have been flat. You put two together and then it was to much. And the breakfast was wonderful and hot. Huge selection to choose from.
Overall, I would recommend this hotel to anyone. My only "complaint" is that the room wasn't super updated. The room was a great size, bed and pillows were very comfortable and pretty clean overall. The breakfast was delicious as well- my only complaint here is that they only had sliced oranges for fruit. Location was great and easy to find. Close to 90 and Badlands National Park!
Thank you for your comments and also your recommendation on breakfast. We will see what we can get to add to the fruits. So happy to hear your stay was comfortable and we hope to see you again sometime soon in our great little town of Wall. Jackie Heathershaw owner
This hotel is run by a family that has run it over 4 generations. I am happy to give my business to them because I know it's a hard business to be successful in. They have an indoor and outdoor pool, a nice breakfast buffet and the room we stayed in had a nice divider between beds, which gave the parents a little privacy from the kids. . It is very close to the intestate and to the Pinnacles entrance to Badlands National Park.
On our way to the Badlands and Black Hills we spent the night in Wall. The Best Western was an excellent choice. It is just two blocks from Wall Drugs. We would stay again if travel allowed The only negative was the restaurant they recoommended. It was okay but nothing special. We would have gone downtown or maybe even eaten at Wall Drugs.
Thank you for your great comments. I am sorry to hear that the restaurant was not of good standards. We will make sure and send our guest to some other choices here in our small town. We hope you tell your friends bout our small town hospitality. Jackie Heathershaw owner May16,2017
I have stayed in some beautiful hotels during my travels, and have to just really give a shout out to the Best Western for all of their thoughtful accommodations. This is a motel right near the Wall drugstore. From the warm reception received when we pulled up to check in, to walking into the room and reading a welcome letter drafted by the family owners, it was one evident gesture after another. (Including a towel sculpture!) As a recent frequent traveler, I can't tell you how much I appreciate the little touches. They were evident throughout the room. There were multiple plug-in receptacle's by the beds, very comfortable mattresses, loaded with several pillows, and the shower was beautifully tiled. It was very evident that extra amenities had been included, and a great deal of thought and effort has been put into this. The room was clean, recently updated, and many modern, decorative touches had been added. There was a nicely appointed breakfast as well. I wish this family the very best, and I will most certainly stay there again in my travels.
This is a two story building with room entrances right off the parking lot. No elevator. A really nice motel and good value for the money. We had stayed in several places on a recent trip. This Best Western had a few perks that I loved: 1. Sink outside the rest of the bathroom which made it faster for two people to get ready. 2. Good lighting and LOTS of extra outlets. A plus for us because of medical equipment. 3. A clever heart-shaped towel on the bed with a really sweet hand-written note from the housekeeper. Comfortable bed. Breakfast was included although we did not partake. Very close to Wall Drug if that is something you wish to visit. I would stay here again.
thank you for your comments. We appreciate your business and hope to see you again soon. Jackie Owner/manager
A standard motel with friendly staff. Hated that there was not a designated smoking area because guests stood outside our door making our room and car reek of smoke. The staff was very friendly and the rooms were clean so it made up for that. The breakfast was fine. Nothing to write home about. Eat something and then go to Wall Drug for pie for breakfast. The beds were horrible. We described them as a lasagna. The outside rim was crunchy noodle and the inside was soft and mushy.
I apologize that your bed was not comfortable. We will check and see which room that you were in as most of our beds are newer. I am happy to hear the staff was friendly and we hope you come see us again soon. thank you Jackie owner/manager
Ok so this is a motel style place (doors face parking lot, no hallways) with two floors and no elevator, pool and breakfast area are seperate from the hotel. With that out of the way, the staff was very friendly and helpful. The lobby is small and at the time of visit they were remodeling so it was in disarray but not messy. The ouside was clean and presentable. The room was clean, comfortable and the amenities all worked as the should. Water hot/cold, fridge cold internet of good quality, TV had decent selection. Noise was at a minimum. Did not partake or use the breakfast/pool. On the main road close to restaurants and such and if interest blocks from Wall Drug.
Thank you for staying with us and we are glad you felt comfortable
This was a off season choice. So many of the hotels were closed for the season. I am super glad that they were open. An awesome friendly helpful staff. The desk had some suggestions for dinner and explained some sites to see. Easy access to the Badlands completed the visit.
Thank you
The price here is so much better than Rapid City hotels, and everything about the motel is top-notch. The front-desk and breakfast room staff are friendly and efficient. Our second-floor room was clean, quiet, and updated. The vanity was large and outside the toilet and shower room, which is great for families. Although separate, it's still private because it's behind the partial wall into the bathroom area. The beds were comfortable. There is a big-screen digital TV, a refrigerator (be sure to check to see if it's plugged in), a microwave, a desk, and a medium-size wardrobe closet with hangers. The breakfast area was in the lobby of the pool building, but I think I heard the front-desk person say that was temporary, which would be good as the eating area was tight. The food was pretty good. There were freshly cut orange slices, which was a nice touch. The indoor pool wasn't large but was nice and our teenager enjoyed it, and the area around it was large; in a separate building across the parking lot from the main part of the motel. The outdoor pool wasn't open in March, of course, but it's great the motel has one for winter, and one for summer. There aren't a lot of places to eat in Wall, so be sure to check things out online before coming if you haven't eaten. There is a Subway and a Dairy Queen, and I think a few sit-down restaurants. Thank you to the Best Western Plains Motel for your friendly welcome, your good prices, and a great night's sleep in a clean, quiet room!
Thank you
I booked out trip on line through Trip Advisor. we went off season the last week of September and it wasn't busy!! I didn't want to skimp on accommodations and luxury. Yes it's Wall but, it's the best! You pay for what you get and we booked a 2 room suite for us and our 14 year old daughter. She enjoyed her privacy. The staff was very nice and the free breakfast was great. The pool was a nice relaxation after the drive from the cities and don't forget the Jacuzzi. If you go to Wall you definitely need to stay here! Wall Drug is a few blocks away but this hotel was a definite stop coming from the cities for the first leg of our trip.
This motel is very quaint in a very small town. I have stayed in towns all over Canada and the USA. This is the nicest small town motel I have ever stayed at. The price was right Very clean. And best part very quiet. My dogs loved it.
Let's face it: when you rent a motel room, you are looking for 4 things. 1. Location: This Motel is around the block from Wall Drug and 8 miles from the Badlands entrance. 2. A place to sleep: I recommend this motel's comfy beds. 3. A place to freshen up: Ample towels, soaps and shampoos, and hot water. 4. Complimentary breakfast: A good selection of eggs, sausages, cereals, toast, and yogurt. We were pleased with the spotless condition of the entire property, the indoor pool, and the pleasant, competent staff. All this and pretty good free wifi. This place is a great find.
Room was clean and spacious. Free breakfast with alot of choice. Ample parking. Nice personal touches, i.e. handwritten note welcoming us and a letter giving a brief history of the family who run the hotel. Just a generally nice place to stay. No elevator but it's only one flight of stairs to the upper floor, and there are rooms available on the ground floor
Very clean and well maintained. Excellent bed and quiet room. Breakfast was wonderful. A very good value and a great place to stay when touring the Badlands! I wish I could have controlled the a/c fan better but everything else was first rate!
Great place to stay ! Had 3 queen beds in room was very clean and nice! Very nice pool area ! Breakfast in the morning was great there ! We would definitely stop there again. Rates where very good ! Definitely recommend!!
After a long day of driving we were happy to reach the hotel. Check in was quick and easy. Room was clean and neat, but the real surprise was the towel design on the bed with a personalized note on the bed! Beds were comfortable. Breakfast was included and has plenty of choices. Don't forget to stop by the giant dinosaur ??
This is the best hotel in town. We stayed here while visiting Mt. Rushmore, The Badlands, Devils Tower and Wall Drug. The hotel is clean, friendly and has a delicious breakfast. We stay here every time we come to this area.
Thank you for taking the time to post your comments. We are happy to hear you are a return customer. This makes us feel like we are doing our job. We hope to see you again on your next time through Wall. Jackie Heathershaw owner
This motel has exterior doors on all the rooms, two floors, two pools, and a family ownership proud of its German heritage. Both the staff and guests were pleasant & friendly. Its location is excellent as it is ten or so miles north of Badlands National Park and within walking distance of Wall Drug.
Thank you for staying with us and reviewing our property.
Wall is itself a lovely town that is well worth a few hours of your time if you are in the area. The Best Western is a pretty standard motel but is well located, is clean and tidy and comfortable to stay in. The pool area is a nice place to chill out after hours on the road. I'd recommend a stay here if in the area.
Thank you for staying with us and reviewing our property
We stayed here while visiting the Badlands. Everything there was great. The housekeepers left a cute heart shaped towel with a note. The rooms were clean and spacious and the breakfast was the best we had at a motel on the whole trip. They even had a little treasure chest for the kids. Overall a great bargain!
Thanks for staying and we are glad that you enjoyed the area.
We stayed here for one night.The check in process was smooth, the staff were friendly.. The rooms were clean, beds comfortable, the shower was good. The only problem was getting on line. It wouldn't get past google for a couple of hours, but was OK the next morning. They said someone will come and have a look in 5 to 10 minutes, but nobody ever showed up. This was why I couldn't give it a 5. We would stay here again if we ever get back out that way again.
Thank you for staying with us
We really enjoyed our stay. It was very comfortable with a great breakfast buffet. Reasonably priced. Extras in the rooms. The room was larger than most with a comfy couch and big screen TV. The staff was friendly and helpful.
Thank you for staying with us.
Stayed here on are way back from the badlands. Friendly helpful staff we stayed on the top floor seemed quite enough. The breakfast was great with a lot of seating we would stay here again. Had a little trouble with the wasps that were flying around but other than that we had a great stay.
Thank you for staying with us and reviewing our property
This hotel resembled the old-fashioned motels of yesteryear. It was very basic and antiquated, yet clean. Staff was very friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The breakfast took us by surprise! It advertised a continental breakfast. Given the appearance of the motel and our room, we had very little expectations. The breakfast exceeded our expectations! It was a very good full breakfast!
Thank you for staying with us and reviewing our property.
Awesome staff, clean and at a good price we have always hesitated on outside door hotels. The setup of this hotel made you feel secure. Nice breakfast area and grounds. Easy on easy off location with numerous gas stops and convenience stores within walking distance.
We are glad you did not regret your decision to pull over and stay in Wall with us at the Best Western. Thank you for you comments and we hope to see you again soon. Jackie Heathershaw owner/manaer
We stayed at this motel twice in the last three months. Its location is convenient to the Black Hills and the Badlands. Both times we were pleased with how clean the room was. This family-run business takes pride in both the property and in customer service; the room was quiet, the breakfast included several options, and the staff was friendly. They also accommodated our request for a room in which no pets had stayed (allergies).
thank you for your comments. We are glad to hear you enjoyed your stay with us. Thank you for choosing Best Western. Jackie Heathershaw owner
Nice clean place that does a good job of covering the necessities. They serve a free breakfast and have an indoor and our door pool. You can walk to the tourist area easily from here. They have cable TV and hbo!
thank you for choosing Wall and our Best Western for you over night stay. We hope to see you come again nd tell your friends about our small town hospitality. Jackie Heathershaw owner
If you are looking for a place to stay that is near Mount Rushmore, Wall Drug, or the South Dakota Badlands, this is a good option. The rooms were clean and spacious. There were outdoor corridors and the breakfast nook was in a separate building across the parking lot. We enjoyed going through Wall Drug-so much to see! We also visited Mount Rushmore and the Badlands (spectacular scenery and we also saw a lot of wildlife).
We pride ourselves in our service and are happy to hear you were not disappointed. Come and see us again soon. than you for choosing Best Western. Jackie Heathershaw ownerk
I give this place a 4/5 b/c most motels are not this nice. The pool was nice, the breakfast was great, and it was clean. There is even a television in the pool area! The staff was friendly and it's family owned. I would recommend it.
Thank you for your comments and hopefully recommending us to your friends. We hope to see you out this way again. Jackie Heathershaw owner
First time at the BW Plains. Nice to see it was family run. Obviously doing things right because we were overall very pleased with our stay. Spacious room, decent breakfast, easy check in and check out, professional attitude by staff. Comfortable bed, albeit a bit soft for our preference
Enjoyed my stay...friendly staff, clean, nice variety for breakfast...only one concern... I was going to enjoy some of your complimentary popcorn, but I watched a staff person reach in with their hand and ate popcorn directly from the machine...gross!
My wife and I spent the night at the Best Western Plains Motel in Wall, South Dakota last week. Check-in was quick; many thanks to Oscar! Linens and towels were fresh. Big screen TV was a plus. Breakfast buffet was outstanding with many choices! Thank you.
This was a pleasant stay. The hotel is immaculate, staff was extremely friendly, breakfast was quite nice, and even the towels were nice. Hotel seems to be updated, and we even retuned there for another night.
Nothing remarkable or unremarkable about this place. Seemed clean, breakfast was ok, pool and hot tub were acceptable, nothing to brag about and nothing to complain about. Would stay again if needed. Internet was ok.
When one comes to Wall, SD they come to see Wall Drug. This hotel is almost within walking distance, except it was raining. BW Plains is a very large hotel., It's not brand new, but still quite nice. There is lots of free parking, but not always by your room. There are two floors, all rooms have outside entrances, and there is not an elevator. If this is a problem for you, ask for a lower level room. The hostess was accommodating when there was no available room on the lower level and had her maintenance man come and assist us with getting our bags up the outside stairs. We were even provided with a second luggage rack upon request. There are also suite rooms and rooms for the physically challenged. The beds were comfortable, and the room was properly stocked with enough towels and was clean and quiet enough. Safety was not an issue. There is always lots of hot and soft water here, as the water is heated by an underground spring. It tastes pleasant and ice is available if you wish for cold water. Best Western's trademark breakfast is served in the adjoining pool building. It is always good. The room is rather small for the number of people it needed to accommodate. The reception area is small and does not have a public restroom. The staff was nice, but they almost seemed overwhelmed.
Stayed for one night, due to the proximity to Badlands National Park. Very close to I90, but not noisy. Good room, very good breakfast. We were very satisfied with our stay and would happily stay again, if in the area.
Made a reservation several months before and specifically requested the first floor. Arrived and there are no first floors available. In addition, there are no elevators either. The front desk staff has little knowledge about the town (where is the nearest ATM), much less their checkout procedures. The exterior of the building was clean but if you leave before sunrise be careful because there were absolutely no lights on which is a HUGE safety issue in my book. What I will say is the housekeeping staff was amazing.
We were surprised how noisy our room was. We could hear our neighbors moving around and speakIng through the walls. Showers and toilets could also be clearly heard on either side of us. Even ringing cell phones could easily be heard (especially at 5 a.m.!). And the bed pillows were the tiniest we've ever seen. On the plus side, the breakfast choices were good (although the plastic cutlery could go), and the popcorn in the reception area was a nice surprise.
I am so sorry to hear you were disappointed with your stay with us. This is not up to our standards and your issues will be taken seriously to see if we can amend them. Once again we apologize for the inconvenience and hope you give Best Western another shot. Jackie Heathershaw
Very nice hotel, clean, comfy bed, nice hot shower, plenty of room. Breakfast was fine enough. We stayed just one night passing thru after black hills, and we would definitely stay here again if we are in the area
We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and we a hope to see you again sometime. Thanks for taking the time to post your comments. Jackie Heathershaw owner
We stayed at this hotel on our way to Yellowstone from Illinois. On our way from Mitchell SD, we stopped at Pioneer Auto museum and then we went to see the Minute Man Visitor Center. Next we drove through the Badlands National Park and arrived in Wall about 5pm. We saw Wall Drug and ate dinner there. This hotel was a welcome treat - very nice very clean. Room was a bit small but it was very nice!
Thank you for stopping over in Wall and spending the night. We are small town with a great hospitality welcome. We hope to see you agin and thanks for your comments. Jackie Heathershaw owner
It was clean. I had requested the first floor since there was no elevator but they did not make note of that and there were no rooms available on the 1st floor. We left very early in the morning and there were no safety lights in the parking lot...... The huge plus: had we not stayed here we wouldn't have gone through the Badlands Loop which was a highlight of the trip.
Glad to hear you did not miss the Badlands as they are a beautiful sight to behold. Thanks for your comments and tell everyone about the great little town of Wall. Jackie Heathershaw owner
We had a clean comfortable room. It was not a fancy modern motel, but it had been updated and it was clean. They had more than a continental breakfast. It was very good and a pleasant surprise. We would definitely stay there again.
We are happy to hear you had a pleasant surprise and hope you come out this way again to visit. Jackie Heathershaw owner
Needed a place to stay on a trip across the high planes, found the Best Western and was happy we did! Very clean, updated room, the only issue was the mattress, we thought it was way way to soft ! Gain, Greg stay good breakfast clean rooms, but the mattress was really too soft for us!
Thank you for staying with us and we are glad you did!!
Check in went smoothly. Room was clean. Night clerk gave several suggestions for dining places which turned out to be very reasonable.Breakfast in AM was held in the Pool Room and not an adjacent area from Lobby as to which we are accustomed...but it served us and many guests well. Over all, not a bad place to rest for the evening.
Wasn't sure what to expect in Wall -- it is a pretty small place! Check-in was easy as the gentleman at the desk was very efficient. The room was a bit tired and damp-smelling but had all we needed. The hotel was packed but surprisingly quiet. Breakfast was really good! Overall, met my needs. Thanks!
Thank you for staying with us
We stopped and chose Best Western based on our satisfaction with the brand. The hotel is older (70s) so the bathrooms are small. However the room was very clean and comfortable. The parking was a little tight for a larger vehicle. The pools and facilities were nice and the staff were top notch. It's a very good Wall option.
Clean, comfortable place to stay. Run by a very conscientious family in regards to customer care. Not the fanciest place, but nice. Good, free bkfst. Great pool for kids. Room was sufficiently large and very clean.
My husband, my brother, and I stayed one night here while spending 3 days in Wall (we were staying at the Sunshine, but they were booked the 3rd night and we didn't want to leave town early). The Best Western was very, very nice. It's only a few blocks over from the main drag. It has both an indoor and outdoor pool (my brother visited the indoor one, really enjoyed it). The room was spacious, the beds comfortable. My husband didn't like the pillows, however; he thought they were too tiny and made it hard to sleep. He also didn't like the bathroom, thinking it too was too small. I loved the fact that it had an exterior vanity i.e., separate from the shower/toilet. Fridge, microwave, wifi, a wonderful breakfast in the morning.... The price, had we not been splitting the cost with my brother, would've been a bit higher than we were comfortable with. All in all, a very good stay before heading west to the Black Hills!
Very Nice motel. Best breakfast. Lots of choices to choose from. I would recommend this motel to my friends. Clean rooms and excellent shower. Nice pool area. Staff was friendly too. Close to attractions.
We stayed here two nights for the our visit to Wall and Badlands National Park. We found the room clean and comfortable, and the location ideal to visit both locations. Breakfast was typical buffet-style, and the staff worked hard to make our stay pleasant.
We were surprised at how nice these rooms were. They did have a little bit of a musty smell, but they were very clean and comfortable. The complimentary breakfast was good and had many choices. The pool was very refreshing. They had coffee and popcorn in the lobby...both very good.
Thank you for your comments. We are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay with us. We will look into the issues you had but are mostly thrilled to have it be a pleasant stay for you. Jackie Heathershaw owner Sept 2, 2016
If you like a clean hotel I recommend this place. The breakfast was good, get there early because everyone seems to be up early. The hotel also sits within walking distance of Wall Drug and very near the entrance of the Badlands National Park. The only problem I had, which was minor, was that the walls are a bit thin...bring your earplugs.
thank you for staying with us and taking the time to respond back about your experience. We hope you come see us again soon. Jackie Heathershaw owner Sept 2, 2016
We stayed there for one night and were very impressed by the clean room - and I have very high standards. The room was also very quiet and the beds very comfortable. Travelling with two young kids, we have certainly checked out our fair share of pools. Both the indoor and outdoor pools were fantastic - probably the cleanest of our whole trip! That's worth something. The breakfast was good.... Nothing spectacular, but adequate. And you can't beat the price! We would certai it stay there again.
Thanks for the great review and we are happy to hear it was a great experience for you. We hope you come to Wall again soon nd tell your friends about the great stop over in Wall, SD Jackie Heathershaw owner
For a town population of 880 in need of a place to stay, this fits the bill. Very clean rooms nice staff and very good accomodations. The beds were comfortable and not too soft. The breakfast was ok, not great but adequate. The pools and spa were nice. One indoor and one out. Too cold for me outside but indoor was a nice extra.
thank you for taking the time to leave us some great feedback. We appreciate your business and hope to see you again soon. Let your friends know about the friendly town of Wall. Jackie Heathershaw owner/manager
This is an old hotel. But very well taken care of. The bed was very comfortable and the room was quiet. They have an indoor and an outdoor pool. The breakfast buffet was very nice. Would definitely return.
Thank you for staying with us and for reviewing our roperty
Stayed here numerous times. Loved the location. Great pool. Rooms are basic but clean and comfortable. The breakfast in the morning was delish. Good way to start the day. Close to the Famous Wall Drug. Nice walk to the Stores.
Thank you for returning and staying with us.
We stayed a total of 3 nights during our road trip through the Black Hills. Staff is great ~ super friendly and accommodating, and grateful for our business (something important to me). Rooms are clean with enough space. We always travel with our own pillows and an extra blanket (we rarely use hotel/motel comforters, especially if a poly/synthetic blend due to the chances of those pieces being laundered regularly), which were needed with this motel. Pillows were the smaller squares and poly comforter ~ not bad, just not what we prefer. I didn't see it on the website, but there is a coffee maker in the room. **hairdryer is kept in the dresser under the tv. Took me until our third night to figure that out. Lol. ** Complimentary breakfast consisted of the typical fare with this motel class ~ again, not bad. Probably best for younger kids. There are refrigerators and microwaves in room if you prefer to bring along your own food. We'd definitely stay again. Ps ~ SD does weird things with their gas prices i.e. different $$ for cash/credit, different 87 grade options. I didn't pay attention to all of it and ended up way overspending at one fill up.
Thank you for staying with us and we hope you enjoyed the area.
This is a MOTEL, not a Hotel. keep that in mind when booking. Breakfast was good and the rooms were okay. Pretty small but did the job. The hot tub wasn't as clean as we prefer there was dirty water in it. Maybe that was just due to the fact the motel was booked. We also could feel the springs on the edge of mattress in room 268. Everything else met expectations but for the price felt like the facilities could have been better. Very close walking distance to Wall Drug.
Thank you for reviewing our property.
I stayed here for a night with my family on a trip out west. The room was very nice, the beds comfortable and updated, the staff friendly. We took an evening dip in the outdoor pool, it was clean and warm. The breakfast was fine, a little crowded, but the coffee was hot and there was half and half! I'd definitely recommend this motel!
Thank you for reviewing our property
The Best Western in Wall, SD, a 7-10 minute walk from Wall Drug and many shops and eateries, sits amid several other motels. The others were a little less expensive, but we banked on "really clean and convenient" and we got it. The king room had a tiny but efficient bathroom, while the sink and vanity are in a separate area (we like that - one of us showers while the other does his/her morning hair routine) so we can get a cup of coffee going and shorten our get-ready time. The vanity is granite and beautiful, and there are plenty of towels. Free Breakfast choices were abundant - hot items, cold items, protein, fresh fruit. Seating was scarce, but they are trying to solve the problem by placing some tables outdoors. As the weather was gorgeous, this worked for us. In case of rain or cold, you'd go back to your room to eat what you'd chosen. Staff get around the outdoor hotel on little one-foot scooters! Children seemed happy. Front desk reception was very polite and interested. We would definitely come again.
Great 4th generation family owned hotel. Stopped to stay after badlands and Wall drug. Very clean rooms with personnel touches. Outdoor heated pool indoor pool and whirlpool. Good breakfast eggs, sausage, French toast and cold cereal. I would recommend for sure.
We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. It was comfortable and clean. Super crowded and busy but since the rooms are entered "motel style" it wasn't claustrophobic. We didn't visit the pool area because of crowding however. The breakfast was hot and delicious. We would stay here again!
Thank you for your comments ...we are so happy to hear you enjoyed your time with us and we hope to see you again sometime soon. Tell your friends about Wall it is a great stop over for anyone. Thanks Jackie Heathershaw onwer
Great hotel. Stayed there during Sturgis week, very nice facility, friendly staff, they even put towels on the motorcycles in the morning so the bikers would have a towel to wipe down their bikes. We weren't on a bike, we were moving from Georgia to Washington State, but it was nice to see the level of service they provided. Exceptional.
Thank you for stopping by to see us during Rally week. It can get hectic around here during that week so we are glad to hear everything went well for you. Jackie Heathershaw owner
We were very pleased with our stay at the Best Western Plains Motel. The staff was friendly and genuinely pleased to help you. The room was clean and the beds very comfortable. The breakfast was well done with a variety of healthy choices in addition to the regular Breakfast fare. We had some trouble with our TV and when we called the desk someone was there almost immediately. I was surprised it was only given two diamonds from AAA this deserves at least a four! I would definitely recommend this motel.
thank you for taking the time to let us know about your stay with us. We work hard to please everyone and are glad you experienced that service. Come to Wall again sometime soon. Jackie Heathershaw ownner
This was the best hotel of our vacation. Best service,,,,best everything! We had a sick 4 year old who most likely was sick from the heat and sun. The girl who was working went above and beyond to help us. she gave extra towels, pillows and blankets in case we needed them. Gave me all the cleaning supplies that I needed to clean the car seat that she threw up in.
We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. I get to see and talked to a lot of hhe gust in the parking lot and we are happy to hear their comments. Hope to see you again soon. Jackie Heathershaw owner
I was unsure about staying at a Best Western, but we were very happy! Our room had 2 queen beds & a small pull out couch. Plenty of room, the bathroom was a bit small. The beds were made perfectly! We even saw the housekeepung shining the kick plates of the doors. The bathroom fixtures were gleaming. Also, it was a short walk to downtown Wall. The court yard was amazing, and even showed a movie for the youngsters. It was a great stay, even though I was sceptical, I was pleasantly surprised. Only draw back was breakfast coffee was too weak as well as the oj machine.
Thank you for visiting Wall and reviewing our property.
First the positive. Great pool house with indoor and outdoor pools and a hot tub. Great for kids after a day in the Badlands. Breakfast was also pretty good, offering a little more than is typical for a hotel free breakfast, like decent donuts and make your own breakfast burritos. The negative was our room. We had a family "suite" - 3 beds. Our room was tucked in the back inside corner behind the stairs and seemed to be a converted store room. Unlike other rooms it had no front window. There was one small window in the back bedroom that looked out at the neighbor's driveway. The room was very dark and musty and seemed clear it was not originally designed to be a room. Being under the stairs also meant lots of noise as people went up and down at night and early in the AM. Proprietor was apologetic and noted that just two rooms are set up his way. So if you are going to stay here, make sure you call and ask to be placed in a room with a window looking outward toward the pool and parking lot.
Thank you for taking the time to review our property and we are sorry it wasn't what you were expecting.
There a not many choices in Wall, and the Best Western appeared to be the best one. My kids used the indoor and out door pools. It was clean, staff was very nice, the breakfast was pretty bad but I've had worsen it was quiet, plenty of parking, close to everything. We were there for the Bandlands and while I would never stay in Wall again by choice, if I had to I'd stay here.
Thank you for taking the time to review our property.
We have not stayed at a Best Western for many years but my son made reservations for both of us. The rooms were very clean, it had both indoor and outdoor pools and the breakfast was better than most. The ultimate for me was they left six (6) regular and six (6) decaf coffee packs, wow. Most have 2 each. For early risers needing coffee this was great.
Thank you
We couldn't find a hotel room due to the Sturgis week of fun so "settled" for this hotel. We couldn't believe how fantastic our stay was. The staff was amazingly friendly, the pool was great (both in and out) for the kids and the exercise facility had everything we needed. The breakfast was good too! Our room was clean and included a towel"heart" with a personal message from housekeeping! Above and beyond! We will stay here every time we are in town!
We are glad that you chose us and had a fabulous time here. Hope you come back and see us again.
The room was clean and the staff friendly. The breakfast was very good and the location was great. Easy to walk to Wall Drug and downtown area. Great small town atmosphere. I would recommend this hotel highly.
Thank you for taking the time to review our property and we are glad you enjoyed the area.
Two of us stayed 1 night while visiting the Badlands and en route to Mt. Rushmore. It has probably been more than 10 years since I have stayed in a Best Western and I was pleasantly surprised. The room was renovated, and extremely clean with no odor. The beds were comfortable, a bit on the softer side. A bit of a tight space for two, but nothing more than usual for a motel. Basin was outside the bathroom which is always helpful when multiple people staying in a room. We came back late one night (had gone to the ranger program at the park) and there was just one very tight parking space (I think it was a parking space) left. I guess I could have parked on the street but if I am paying for a motel room I would like to know I have a parking space on the property. The evening front desk staff was helpful but very "focused," there was no extra friendly conversation. I guess I understand: they were very busy. I guess also for the latter reason as well, when I asked for a late check out I was offered an extra 30 minutes. Breakfast with warm and cold options was reasonable, nothing fancy. I do think the cost was a bit expensive but I imagine there is significant demand during the summer months. Overall, a good basic motel with all I generally expect: clean and comfortable.
Thank you for staying with us and taking the time to review our property.
This location allowed us to easily tour the Badlands, stop in at Wall Drug late in the day, and then return to the Badlands for a ranger talk about the constellations after dark. Everyone should see the Badlands and imagine the frontiersman that tried to settle that area.
You had a great experience in the Badlands and that is what we want everyone to do. Thank you for staying with us and thank you for your response also. We hope to see you again sometime soon. Jackie Heathershaw owner
This was the perfect spot for our one night in Wall. 2 rooms with 2 comfy queen beds, very clean, indoor and outdoor pool and a pretty good free breakfast. When I think of motels, I am immediately scared away but this one was great..Lots of families here...The kids really enjoyed the pool. Definitely a place we would stay again! Thanks for the great stay!
Nothing is better than to have the kids enjoy there night stay. We hope to see you again soon and tell your friends about the great little town of Wall. Jackie Heathershaw owner
This hotel was a one night stop on our way to Mt. Rushmore. We stayed in a "family suite" which had 2 separate rooms with 3 queen beds. It looks to be recently updated. It was very clean. Easy location. Subway across the street which was quick and easy for us. Wall Drug is just a couple blocks away, you could easily walk there. Free WIFI. Good showers. Continental breakfast including hot food, good coffee. Indoor and small outdoor pool. Perfect for us to stop and rest before continuing on the next day
thank you for taking the time to tell us about your stay in Wall. We are happy to hear that is was a good experience for you and we hope to see you again soon. Jackie Heathershaw owner
I have stayed in this motel several times in our trips out west and it never disappoints, in fact, the place gets better and better. The rooms are large and well appointed. The pool areas are nice as well. The free breakfast is top notch. This motel is the first one to fill up during tourist season so get your reservation in early. I was talking to one of the staffers and he said they house and feed 350 people each night and then turn it around do it again the next day. Very few people stay more than one night in Wall so the housekeeping staff really earn their money. This is a very well run motel and I will keep staying their as long as I keep traveling down I-90.
Wow, we are delighted to hear that you keep coming back to stay with us. We enjoy are repeat customers and are happy to hear that you are satisfied with your stay with us. Thank you for staying true to Best western and keep returning to see us. Jackie Heathershaw owner
Rooms are clean and staff is nice. This BW is a basic hotel with breakfast until 9 and a pool. It's right off I-90 and only 10 mins from the west entrance to the Badlands, a perfect staging area for a park visit or a good place to stay outside Rapid City heading East after a long day at Rushmore, etc.
thank you for your comments. We are happy to hear things went well for you with your stay in Wall. It is a great stop over for anyone traveling. Jackie Heathershaw owner
This is the second time we have stayed here and find it to be a great value as compared to hotels in Rapid City. It is very clean and everyone is very friendly. The kids enjoy the pools (one inside and one outside). THe breakfast is good and although it was busy, there was staff there restocking items all of the time.
Thank you for returning and we are glad you enjoyed the property.
When we began planning another cross-country trip, we knew we had to return to this hotel. It's close to the Badlands and Wall Drug (should you be so inclined). But, the memories we had of the family-run hotel - great staff, good breakfast, good sleep - were really what made us stop here again instead of seeking another hotel. That entailed a bit of sleuthing, as I wasn't sure of the exact place we'd stayed. But, it was worth the extra time to search it out.
Thank you for returning and seeking out our property.
My family and I stopped here on our way to Mount Rushmore, and we were not disappointed! We were greeted by friendly faces and a helpful staff. The hotel itself was recently updated and the room was clean and fit the four of us comfortably(we had the family suite). There aren't any elevators to get to the second level but it wasn't a lot of stairs. The only problem we had was the air conditioning ( if turned above 70 degrees) gave off an odd odor, but it was a minor inconvenience for an excellent stay. Breakfast in the morning had a good variety; eggs, sausage, cereals, yogurt and granola, French toast, fruits, juices and great coffee. Wifi, good and clean shower, and a subway/ gas station across the street. Also walking distance from wall drug store!!! Thanks for a great stay, Best Western!
Thank you for staying and glad you enjoyed the area
Highly recommend this hotel to stay in. Extremely clean, employees are courteous and helpful, walking distance to Wall Drug. Easy access off/on interstate. We stay every year and won't stay anywhere else in Wall, SD
Thank you for staying with us and we are glad you come back and see us every year!!
We drive straight into the Hills, but on this trip we had occasion to seek lodging in Wall, SD. What a delight! I almost wanted to stay in Wall and not move on to the Black Hills. Beautiful pool facilities, friendliest people, and parking at the door (a favorite of mine). Since we couldn't stay longer, we stayed over again on the way home. Would love to make Best Western Plains a part of our yearly trips!
Thanks for taking the time to stay with us and we are glad you enjoyed it!!
Stayed at this Hotel our last three visits. The staff is very friendly, the rooms are clean and updated, and the Hotel itself is quiet and comfortable. If I had only one complaint, it would be wi-fi. Not the greatest. But, we didn't come here for that so, no biggie. Will come again!
I am so sorry that the WIFI was not up to par. We try to sty on top of that so all guest have good connection. We will make sure and see if we are having any issues. Thank you for ll your comments and we hope to see you again soon. Jackie Heathershaw owner
We were SO glad we chose this place after riding thru the Badlands National Park on a 107 degree day! Was able to check-in at 2p.m. (almost unheard of these days) and took advantage of BOTH indoor and outdoor swimming pools. Room was HUGE and had a very southwestern feel.Very comfortable and location was great. Within walking distance to Wall Drug and all the fun shops,restaurants and bars. Perfect in every way! Ready to go back--best stay of our week long vacation.
We are glad you enjoyed our early check-in. It is nice on those really hot days. Thanks for your comments and we hope to see you again soon. Jackie Heathershaw owner
Stayed here many years ago on our way out west, and wanted the kids to experience it on our way back east. Lots of upgrades and renovations since our last stay. Love that is has an indoor AND outdoor pool! Fitness room is sadly lacking though, with just a couple of cardio machines, only. Room was spacious and clean. Even a little personalized note welcoming us on our stay. Layout of the room a little strange, with the TV not able to be viewed by one of the beds, but didn't matter anyway, as everyone was way too tired after a long day of driving and a great swim in the outdoor pool. It is a convenient 2 block walk from Wall Drug, which is always a must-see attraction in Wall. Also, just a few minute drive to the entrance of the Badlands National Park. Can't go wrong with a Best Western, and this is a great location. Will definitely stay here agin is we are ever in the area again.
Thank you for staying with us, and we are glad that you enjoyed the room. Please stop back a see us sometime.
Older but well maintained. Rooms were clean and beds comfortable. Breakfast was very good. Food was fresh and eggs tasted 'real'. No laundry facilities.... Disappointing. No hairdryer; Fortunately I travel with one. Nice pool area. Staff was friendly.
Thank you for staying with us, and the hair dryers are in the drawer.
We stayed here after arriving late from a flight into Rapid City. Staff extremely friendly and works hard to keep their property looking great. Older hotel with nice renovations. Comfortable, clean...just what we needed. Breakfast was standard fare but hot and tasty. Would stay here again. It is expensive for what you get but hey, it is high travel season so it's par for the course. Great location for Minuteman Missile site and Badlands.
Thank you for staying with us.
Very nice after TV was fixed. Would be better if breakfast items were organized in an orderly fashion. Otherwise it was a good overnight stay. Very comfortable beds, no noise problem and nice employees.
We are glad you enjoyed your stay.
I really liked this hotel. They had the family friendly atmosphere and liked the personal touch in the room of a handwritten note from the person who cleaned the room and a nice letter introducing the family who owned the motel and how long it had been in the family. The Family Suite was awesome! It has one bed in one room and the bathroom area in between and then another room with 2 beds. Also loved the dining and swimming area. Nice big building plenty of room. It was a great place to stay and easy to find after coming out of the Badlands. The staff was very friendly and sincere.
We are glad you enjoyed the stay. Thank you again!!
Indoor and outdoor pools, continental breakfast and laundry in building close to lobby were all very convenient. Helpful staff checked us in late (with a reservation) while kids were sleeping in the car. 3-queen room perfect for four kids and ourselves. AC worked great with temps near 90 degrees. Current décor, updated plumbing, and coffee in room was just what we needed after a long day on the road seeing Rushmore and Crazy Horse. Went to Wall Drug and Badlands next day, more to see and do there than we thought. Great family vacation!
spent 2 nights there to facilitate a trip to minuteman missile silo, where you need to be there by 8 to get tix. the motel was OK and pretty much as advertised and as good as anything in town. walking distance to dinner and wall drug. quarter mile off highway. beds were comfortable. air conditioning was excellent. breakfast in am provided. + pools. shower was fine. people were great. (family owned and managed) only issue is woke up both mornings with bug bites that hadn't been present on going to bed. front desk suggested chiggers, but we hadn't done anything that would have subjected us to those. with such a transient clientele ( i think we are the only people from night one who stayed a 2nd night based on parking lot) i can't believe they don't often have issues with things like bed bugs, but the pest control guy pulled in the parking lot as we were packing up, and i always assume that that is a risk of traveling in a high turnover destination that draws people from all over, so will treat the laundry appropriately on return home, and put it behind me.
We had the bug guy inspect your room and there was not anything in there at all as far as bugs. they come and spray us once a month and then we also spry on our own just to keep up with any issues that could come up. We stay ahead of all those issues and hope that things were fine when you got home. thanks for staying and letting us know of your troubles as we inspect any issues brought up. Sincerely, Jackie Heathershaw
Stayed in the large suite due to size of our group. We liked that one of the beds was in a separate room from the other 2 beds. We liked the indoor and outdoor pool, although it opened kind of late. The housekeeping staff was FANTASTIC! Continental breakfast was mediocre compared to some of the other ones we've had, but was sufficient. We would stay here again.
I am happy to hear that our stay with us was good, but I see we need to do some checking into our breakfast. thanks for your comments Jackie Heathershaw owner
Wasn't super excited about any of the choices to stay at in Wall. Our first pick was full, so we ended up here. Pros-the size of room and three queen beds was great for our size of family. It's nice to not have to get two rooms. The AC kept the rooms cool and it was hot outside! (July 4th weekend) Cons-didn't feel super clean, and was kind of run down feeling (still use the gross bedspreads), but I assume that kind of wear and tear will happen when there aren't very many hotels to choose from in a prime tourist spot. The AC put out a mildew smell. This hotel was fine to sleep in for just one night, but definitely would not be my first choice! Time for a remodel!
We apologize for any discomfort you had with us during your stsay. We try to make sure and satisfy all our guests nd will make sure and look into the issues you had. Thank you for choosing Best Western. Jackie Heathershaw owner
We spent our first night here on out week's trip out to South Dakota. The check in process was smooth, the staff were friendly, and our rooms were what we requested. The rooms were clean, beds comfortable, water pressure in the shower was good. We would stay here again if we ever get back out that way again.
It sound like you had a good night stay with us. We are so happy to hear this and are glad you stopped over in Wall for a night. It is a great little stop over town with friendly people and a nice quiet atmosphere. Thanks for choosing Best Western and we hope to see you again soon. Jackie Heathershaw onwer
Not a lot of quality options in this town. This was probably the best. Rooms were ok but they do have rooms that sleep five for those of you with three kids. Has indoor and outdoor pool and complimentary breakfast. It is a motel. Doors open to the outside. Rooms had a foul odor and beds were hard, but room was adequate for a night and within walking distance of Wall Drug.
I apologize for any complications you had with your stay with us. Please don't let this keep you from choosing Best Western again for your future travels. Jackie Heatherhsaw onwer
Great place to spend the night on our way to the Black hills in SD, Friendly and helpful staff, running late for our arrival made sure we got out room key even though they were closing for the night... much appreciated thanks for a wonderful stay
We got into Wall South Dakota after a long day of traveling. The hotel was so nice! The rooms were decorated nicely, the front desk staff was friendly, and the pool was a welcome sight! The breakfast was a nice perk, so we could hit the road in the morning and drive to the Badlands! Front desk staff helped me navigate the map of the Badlands. That was super helpful! I would most definitely stay here again!
We try our best to please everyone. We are happy to hear you had a great experience with us. Jackie Heathershaw owner
If we had paid $80- for this room instead of more than double that amount, it would have been fine. It is very overpriced for what it is; just an ordinary room in an ordinary place with a bad breakfast
I am so sorry that you felt your accommodations were not up to standard. Thank you for choosing Best Western and do not let these experience change your mind from choosing Best Western again. Jackie Heathershaw owner
I have to hand it to the BW in Wall. In a town with so few hotel options, it would be easy for the BW to fall into disrepair and hide behind the brand since there is nothing better in the town (look at the parking lots at 7 pm--all are empty, BW is full). We stayed here about 6 years ago and it was decent. I was pleased to hit it up again this year and find that all the standard upgrades done on other BW's had also been done in Wall. Rooms were really nice, with triple sheeting on the beds, nice furniture, nice carpet. Showers were really hot, almost uncontrollably so. The pool was cold, it happened to be only about 68 degrees the night we were swimming so on top of the cold water, the fact that you had to walk outside after swimming was a con for sure. We skipped breakfast, so no idea on that one.
Thank you for choosing Best Western. We are glad to see you could tell that WE CARE. Please come se us again sometime soon. Jackie Heathershaw owner
We had a great time at Wall, SD and had a very comfortable stay at the Best Western. We will definitely return to this hotel. Rooms were very clean and beds were comfortable. The staff was very kind. We didn't have time to enjoy the pool but it looked very well kept and clean. Breakfast was typical but looked clean around the area.
Thank you for choosing Best Western and we are so glad to hear that all went well on your stay with us. Come see us again sometime soon. Jackie Heathershaw owner
We decided to stop here rather than go into the Rapid City area for several reasons, but we were glad we did. Comfortable room, accommodating staff, easy on and off freeway. Just 2 blocks from Wall Drug. We were early for the "season" so no heavy crowds.
Sometimes the small town atmosphere can be a surprisingly great change of pace. Glad you enjoyed it all. Thank you for your kind words. Jackie Heathershaw owner
The people that run this hotel are the nicest people you could ever meet. The hotel is spotless inside and outside. We will stay here again if we are ever up this way again. They left towels on our motorcycle seat the following morning so I could wipe the dew off our seats! Great place to stay!
Nice, clean, standard free breakfast. Was traveling with my elderly mother and the accessible room was a godsend! Highly recommended. Close to restaurants and the Wall Drug Store. Friendly staff. The end
We stay there after a heavy Day in the Badlands. The Room was clean and the size was Big. They have also a indoor and an outdoor Pool. The staff is very friendly. Breakfast has many different things to eat. But the place for Breakfast is a little small. I reccomend it and will come again.
pool was great, awesome breakfast,stayed here last summer also,would go back, rooms were clean, the kds love the pool. close to down town wall you could walk down town.owners are on sight and friendly.
Thanks for returning and staying with us. Your compliments are appreciated.
We have stayed at many Best Western hotels across the US, this was a very nice one. It is PET FRIENDLY, which is why we chose it. The Pet fee is $20.00. A bit more than we're accustomed to being charged. There was a nice pet designated area which was nice and had poopy bags available. We always have our own, a nice convenience. The beds were comfy, towels nice, quiet room. This hotel has a pool which was being enjoyed by many.
We are happy to hear that the pet walking area work well for you. Thank you for choosing Best Western and we hope you come this way again in your travels. Jackie Heeathershaw
Older motel that has been nicely renovated. Large, very clean rooms with comfortable beds and lots of electrical outlets. Our double queen room also had a table with two chairs and would be prefect for a family. Nice pool area and great Wi-Fi. Walking distance to everything in Wall (including Wall Drug). Breakfast room is small and just OK. It's part of the indoor pool area, which when kids are in the pool, can be a little noisy. Conveniently located near the entrance to Badlands National Park and 20 minutes away from the Minute Man Missile Museum.
thank you for your kind words and thank you for choosing Best Western. We hope to see you again sometime soon. Jackie Heathershaw
It was a very clean, quiet room. We had no issues at all.I would recommend this motel to anyone going to Wall. I also will keep in mind this motel for future staysl We travel through that area qiute oftn.
We are happy to hear that you had a good time while staying with us in Wall. Thank you for choosing Best Western. Jackie Heathershaw
We love the Badlands, and this hotel is perfect for being close by. The room was clean, very firm beds, a well stocked breakfast, a pool (we did not use, but very popular) and really nice people! It was in walking distance of restaurants and the famous Wall Drug. The only negative were the towels; they were very thin, but they still worked just fine. When we come back, we will probably stay here again.
Thank you for responding to our srvey. We will take your comments on the towels to our head laundry and see if we cant provide a better towel. We are pleased to know that everything else went well. Thank you for choosing Best Western. Jackie Heathershaw
We stayed at this hotel with our teenage grandchildren. The room had two queen beds & a pullout couch. After dinner when we were tired and ready for bed we pulled out the couch & were not happy. The mattress was stained & had a couple of dead bugs on it. Since we were tired, we did not ask for another room.... But we did not use the pullout. The woman at the desk seemed concerned when I told her about it at checkout, but she didn't offer any discount off the price.
I am so sorry to hear you had a bad experience with our pull out. It has been checked into and taken care of. Please don't let this keep you from choosing Best Western again on your travels
We arrived after a 14 hour drive from southern Indiana to wall S.D. on the way to The black hills.I was wore out and ready for a relaxing evening. The Best western plains motel provided that and much more.Very clean room,spacious, and comfortable beds.The service desk personel were very polite and efficient.Could not ask for a better stay.On our trip we stayed in 10 motels/hotels and this one was at the top of the list.We were within walking distance of Wall drug and that was convienient.They have an outdoor and an indoor pool ,both were excellent....
Very nice property. Very clean rooms, hard working staff. Enjoyed the breakfast bar but think they need a person cleaning off the tables there. Thought it was nice the cleaning staff left a note saying "enjoy your stay". The staff seemed very friendly. The beds were comfortable.
There are not a lot of hotels/motels in Wall, but I would guess this is probably the nicest one. It is just a few blocks from Wall Drug and only seven miles from the entrance to the Badlands. It must have recently been updated as our room was up to date, fresh and extremely clean. Our room was also huge! The breakfast was good but located in a separate building, which might have been an issue if the weather had been bad! My only negative is that the price seemed to be high as it was $50 higher than any other place we stayed during our vacation. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
This BW is what used to be called a motel (no hallways just enter the room from the exterior). Despite that, this was an excellent place to stay! Room was spacious, comfortable, and clean. We were not bothered by exterior noise at all. Convenient to highway and convenient to the famous Wall Drug (definitely walking distance).
Wife, grandchildren and I spent two nights at this motel approximately 50 miles from Rapid City. We decided to stay in Wall as the cost of motels was less than staying in Rapid. Hotel was clean and had an inside and outside pool for the grandkids. That is why we chose this motel. We met and talked to a 65 year old handyman within the first half hour of arriving who was very pleasant. The next day, he helped us with our room key which apparently had not been activated for the second day. No problem as he let us in our room and had the room keys updated within minutes. The breakfast provided hot items as well as cereal and fruit.
The front desk hotel staff were great. They gave us accurate and helpful advice on what to do and see in the area, and the order in which to do them. It was great. Rooms were clean and quiet. Pool was great for children and the breakfast had many choices including hot food.
We arrived late in the evening, simply to get some shut-eye from our long day of travel. We had reservations for the family room (not sure of the exact name) and it was exactly what we needed. There was a large room with TV, table, and two-beds. There was also a seperate attached smaller room with its own bed and TV. Everything was well stocked and EXTREMELY clean! I was quite impressed, because I'm annoyingly picky when it comes to cleanliness---just ask my family :-) The continental breakfast has a wonderful selection and was just what we needed to quickly get back on the road in the morning. This is a quaint and well-kept family business.
My children and I stayed for 2 nights. The rooms are very clean and provided ample room. There is both an indoor and outdoor pool. My kids LOVED swimming in the pool and just lounging. Everyone from the hotel front desk to the maids and breakfast staff was very friendly. A nice collection of books about the Black Hills area is offered for sale in the hotel lobby - great resources as you journey to Mount Rushmore, especially the Mount Rushmore for Kids DVD which gives a fact about the monument for every letter of the alphabet. Perfect for kids to watch on the drive from Wall to Keystone and Mount Rushmore.
Very nice family run motel with caring staff - rooms are quiet and clean - bathroom has super powered exhaust fan- very nice breakfast included (eggs,sausage, donuts, juice, coffee, cereal) - convenient location - close to highway and Wall drug
The hotel is one of the more expensive in the area, the the beds are amazing. Overall good stay. We got a nice suite. The hotel was sold out, so parking was just about impossible. I ended up making my own parking space.
One of the nicest Best Westerns I've stayed in. The motel is an older style motel but has been kept up really nicely. Rooms appear to have been recently updated with newer finishes, and everything was very clean. There was a fridge in the room and I believe a microwave also. Large property (lots of rooms) but it did not feel crowded, nor was there a lot of noise during the night. The beds were comfortable though the pillows were pretty small. Water pressure was variable, but there was a sign in the hotel explaining why. Both times we went into the office, staff went out of their way to be friendly. Several staff greeted us when we were getting ice and/or loading our car too - just very nice people. The office had snacks and postcards, nice sitting area, etc. When I book motels, I always request extra pillows. I use them along the sides of my daughter's bed because she otherwise tends to roll out. Rarely is this request granted - I usually have to go down to the lobby and ask for the pillows regardless. This motel did grant my request (or else, they provide a lot of pillows by default) -- anyway: I really appreciated all the pillows!! They also had a towel folded into a cute shape, mints, and a letter from the owners on the bed. All very nice and unexpected touches. We did not take advantage of the breakfast because we simply had to go down to the Wall restaurant for donuts. We did swim in the pools - they have an indoor pool, an outdoor pool, and a hot tub. The pool area was nice and well kept. Not too crowded either. We enjoyed our pre-bed swim! I think there was something "off" with the pool chemicals though - we had burning, bloodshot eyes the next morning. As frequent swimmers, this never happens. So they may want to look in to testing the water. I definitely would stay here again and would recommend it to my friends. (I probably would not take a swim next time though -- or at least not get my face wet!)
In a town congested with tourists, this was a refreshing respite. Room was clean, quiet, nicely air-conditioned on an extremely hot day, and the air quality was excellent (no "motel" smell). Also a real ceramic bathtub, not common these days. Staff was welcoming and helpful. They obviously took pride in their hotel and being a family-run operation. Recommended!
We stayed here for one night while visiting Badlands National Park Area. The person who checked us in was very helpful. The room was somewhat dark. The mattress was not firm, the pillows were very small, and the linens seemed thin and worn. The bathroom was clean and the shower worked fine. The breakfast was only fair; the tortillas for the tacos were extremely hard and the eggs tasted like powdered eggs and were cold. At least the AC in the room worked fine because it was an extremely hot day. The town of Wall itself is somewhat depressing. If I had to do it over, I would have kept my hotel in Rapid City, gotten up very early in the morning, and made Badlands a day trip from RC. The motel is probably the nicest of the properties in this small town, but it is average at best.
This hotel has been family run since 1973. The care to every detail from the front desk experience through checkout is seamless and pleasant. I happened to talk to a maintenance employee in the morning and he, having worked their 30 years, was still singing its praises. This property has a pool, full breakfast, and great Wi-Fi. It's right at the junction for the scenic drive into the Badlands so it's a great waypoint on a South Dakota vacation.
I am glad you got to speak with Jerry, He has been right by our side for 30 years and is a pleasure to have around. Thank yo for choosing Best Western and also our small town of Wall for your over night stay. We hope to see you again and tell your friends about the hospitality here in Wall. Jackie Heathershaw owner
This motel is an older style, but they have done a great job in keeping it updated. The room was very comfortable and clean! The bed was just perfect for a good night sleep. Unfortunately, during the second night, there was a severe thunderstorm warning and lots and lots of rain and wind. Needless to say, the town lost power! It was out about 2 hours. We just called it an early evening! They offer breakfast in the pool room and there were enough items offered, to keep most everyone happy. The motel is in a perfect location, close to the freeway, the infamous Wall Drugs and the Badlands National Park. If we travel back this direction again, we would definitely return to this motel.
We are happy to hear that things went well for you on your stay with us in Wall. We hope to see you again and thanks for choosing Best Western. Jackie Heathershaw owner
This is a super quiet place to stay! Even though they were full both nights, we heard no one. We got there at midnight, but had called ahead. They left the key and specific instructions to accommodate us.
It is nice to hear that you had a quiet stay. Thanks for choosing Best Western nd we hope to see you again sometime. Jackie Heathershaw
It was a nice enough room, can't complain about anything except the room was on the small side. A really good breakfast, eggs, sausage, breakfast burritos, cereal, english muffins, fresh fruit, and the usual drinks, juice, milk, coffee and tea. They also have an outdoor and indoor pool. Slept well, had a great start in the morning, feeling full and well rested.
We appreciate all your comments and are really happy to hear you enjoyed your stay with us. Thanks for choosing Best Western and we hope you come and stay with us again. Jackie Heathershaw manager
Traveling with two little kids and was our first time through the area. The front desk was very helpful and got us a great rate and a room on the first floor. Room was clean, beds were comfy, and shower was hot. We didn't have time to utilize either the indoor or outdoor pools (but it was close by and looked nice) or the breakfast. Would definitely stay again!
Thanks for choosing Best Western and we hope you come our way again and have time to enjoy all thee amenities that we have. Jackie Heathershaw
Right outside of the badlands. We were able to tour the badlands in the evening, get some dinner and ice cream at Dairy Queen and settle in to a nice clean motel room for a good nights sleep. Decent breakfast and coffee. Would stay again if passing through.
Far and away the best Best Western that we have ever stayed in. The breakfast buffet was better than you would pay $10-$15 in a restaurant. The ownership and staff CARE, paying attention to even the smallest detail
My wife and I planned a trip to Badlands National Park near Wall, SD, following a wedding in Omaha. We booked this Best Western in Wall, based on our experience with Best Western in the past. It turned out to be a very disappointing stay for us, and we actually left before we had originally planned. The bed was not comfortable, pillows were postage stamp sized and lumpy, the shower temperature was extremely changeable, and the breakfast was below par. We had expected far more. In addition, and this is not Best Western's fault, the town of Wall left a great deal to be desired in terms of dining. The only positive is that personnel at the motel were helpful and pleasant to deal with.
This is a nice, refurbished motel. The updates are good but it retains the feel of an older style motel. It's a good combination. It's within walking distance of Wall Drug and the local restaurants, and sits on the road to Badlands NP. The value was good and the staff friendly and helpful. My only quibble was that the breakfast room was uncomfortably warm and muggy.
We were here with our dog and the experience was very good. The staff was wonderful. The room was clean. Because it is an older motel the bathroom was cramped. The towels were a bit thin. However, it was a vey acceptable stay. The bed was very good and everything was done well. The breakfast was good. We would definitely stay there again.
We were traveling across country from Utah to WI when we hit a deer and totaled our truck just as we were passing Wall, SD on the freeway. We were luckily all ok and able to drive the truck to the nearest gas station. We needed a last minute room on a Saturday night with a dog, and since the Best Western had the best reviews we started there. The front desk staff was immediately so kind and ready to do whatever they could to help us. There was only one room left, and it was a bit unusual as it was once an apartment converted into a double queen. It consisted of two bedrooms, each housing a queen bed, and a bathroom. It fit our needs perfectly. It was older with no frills, but well maintained and very clean. We weren't sure what our next step was, but it turned out that we needed to stay in Wall until 4 pm the next day until family could make it to pick us up. With checkout being much earlier, we weren't sure what we would do in the heat with a child and a dog with no where to go for several hours. I went and talked to the front desk about our predicament to see if we could get a REALLY late checkout. The front desk attendant very kindly said we could stay for a few extra hours, but that they would need time to clean the room before the check-in time for that day. However, we would be welcome to swim in the pool. We weren't sure what we would do with our dog. But, then, as we were packing up all of our stuff and trying to figure out what we would do, the manager sought us out and said that we could have the room for as long as we needed that day!! It was such a HUGE blessing. Our dog was able to sleep in the cool, safe room while we explored the town and swam, turning a very stressful situation into a fun day despite it all. The staff at this motel saved us. My faith in humanity is restored. They cared, they empathized, they did everything they could to make our unexpected stay in Wall, SD as safe and as enjoyable as possible. Next time we come through this way, we will always stay here, and we will always remember the kindness we received and hopefully pay it forward somehow.
We've stayed at this property both going and returning from several trips to Yellowstone and have always been pleasantly surprised with the level of service and value we've had. We generally stay at Best Westerns when we travel but this is one of our favorites!
Thank you for choosing us and Best Western for your stay. We are happy to hear that you had a comfortable stay with us and we hope to see you again soon. Tell your friends about the nice friendly town of Wall. It is a great stop over for anyone traveling. Jackie Heathershaw manager
Wonderful stay, great location to the Badlands, Minute Man site, and Wall tourist town. It's a family run business and you could tell the family takes pride in it. Rooms are standard, but very clean. The property is well maintained and we enjoyed the beautiful pool during our stay along with the free breakfast. Family members are checking on things all the time and this hotel should be rated higher than some other Best Westerns than currently have the same rating. As we were leaving, the younger generation (teenagers) were already at work cleaning our room. Never seen such attention to detail and pride in a property. Would definitely stay here again or recommend to others.
It is so nice to her that you had such a great stay with us. We work hard as a team to try and make all feel welcome and comfortable. We hope you keep choosing Best Western and come see us in Wall again sometime soon. Jackie Heathershaw manager
We booked the family suite that advertised 2 bedrooms/3 queen beds with a bath in the middle for added privacy. The bathroom was not between the rooms but in the corner of the larger room. Also, there were 2 queen beds in the main room and a double bed in the smaller room. No windows in the small room. The room was clean and sufficient but not as much privacy as we would have like as we were traveling with our two adult children. Next time we'll just go with 2 rooms.
I am so sorry you were given a different suite then the one explained to you. We have about 3 different set ups for our family rooms and I am so sorry for the error in the room given to you. We hope you will keep choosing Best Western. Jackie Heathershaw manager
We loved staying in this hotel. It was family run, very comfortable. The rooms were decorated nicely in a western theme. The breakfast was very good. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. This is a great place to stay in Wall, SD for visiting the Badlands area.
We are happy to hear you had a great time in Wall and enjoyed your stay with us. Thank you for choosing Best Western. We hope to see you again soon. Jackie Heathershaw owner/manager
We visited the Badlands, stayed here that evening. Room was clean, accommodated five of us, having a pull out bed for our youngest. Her mattress was just ok very thin and she felt springs. Otherwise nice staff, nice size rooms. Pool was crowded but hotel has no control of that. Great location for Badlands and Wall Drugs.
We stopped in Wall as we wanted to visit the Badlands and as there were not many hotel options, we chose the Best Western. We couldn't have been more pleased. We were met at the front desk by one of the friendliest people and everyone we encountered was just as pleasant. We chatted with her and she told us that this was a family run hotel and that they do everything possible to make your stay enjoyable. So true. They originally had us on the 2nd floor; however, we had a handicapped person with us who would have trouble with steps and she immediately changed us to a first floor room. The room was clean, comfortable and very cozy. We used the hot tub which we found to be a great end to our long trip and was so relaxing. The breakfast was far better than your standard hotel breakfast buffet and set up in a separate building which was great. Couldn't have been more pleased with our stay.
I am so happy to hear we met your expectations and you had a good night stay in our great little town of Wall. We hope to see you again soon and tell your friends about the small town of Wall. Sincerely, Jackie Heathershaw ower
I have never been met at a front desk by a friendlier person. She was so friendly and welcoming. Apparently this lady is the front desk manager and we also saw her the next morning overseeing the breakfast. I was hesitant as I usually don't like motels because of the outside door, especially on the first floor but I was pleased with our room & stay. The room was very clean and updated. We never heard anything during the night as I had expected. No noise at all fronm the parking lot.
Thank you for your comments. We do our best to make you feel at home and comfortable. We hope to see you soon in your travels again. Sincerely, Jackie Heathershaw
The family owned motel was just what we needed on our 6000 mile family road trip to take our 7 year old grandson to Yellowstone Park. The entire staff made it feel as though they were welcoming you to their own home, and breakfast was delicious
thank you for you kind words and compliments. We try to make everyone feel at home and we are just one big family here at the Best Western. We hope to see you again soon!! Jackie Heathershaw
We stayed here for one night when visiting the Badlands National Park. The staff was very pleasant and the room was very clean. Close enough to walk to main street. Will certainly stay here again on our next visit.
Thank you for your response to your stay with us. We are happy to hear that our staff was taking care of you and everything was clean. We cant wait to see you again and tell your firneds Sincerely, Jackie Heathershaw
We stayed here for the convenience- about 10 miles from the Badlands and a visit to Wall Drug. The hotel is very clean and comfortable. There is a nice pool and hot tub for relaxing. Of the several other hotels we saw in the area, we were glad we chose this one.
Thank you for choosing Best Western. We are glad you had a good time here in Wall and the Badlands. We hope to see you again soon and thank you for taking the time to post your comments. Sincerely, Jackie heathershaw
We were on a cross country trip and needed to stay near Mt. Rushmore. We also heard about the Wall Drug Store as a must see. So glad we stayed here. The beds are extremely comfortable!!! The bathroom had a terrific shower/bath as well. We awoke very well rested. The outside looks like your standard hotel/motel but the room was very well appointed. You could easily spend an entire day at Wall Drug. They offer breakfast, lunch and dinner at reasonable prices. WARNING! They advertise 5 cent coffee but they charge $1.50 for a donut! Good donut but recommend you get the sticky bun instead. By the way...the breakfast at the BW was okay...nice breakfast room...good coffee...nice selection of foods. Overall a great place to stay in Wall. I hope we get a chance to stay again.
Thank you for choosing Wall and the Best Western for you stay. We appreciate your comments and hope to see you again soon. We are ahppy to hear you had a good experience with us. Sincerely, Jackie Heathershaw
This was a nice hotel. Close to attractions and eating establishments. The breakfast was wonderful! The desk staff was really nice. I didn't appreciate the cleaning staff resting on the balcony smoking, but other than that, nothing to complain about.
Thank you for reviewing our property, and we have taken care of the smoking on the property. Sorry for the problem.
Very accommodating, clean nice room. Very pleasant person checked us in. We would definitely stay again when we are in the area. We have 5 people in our family and they actually had 3 beds in one room.
We are happy to hear you enjoyed our family room. It is a great size for a family of 5 or 6. Tell your friends to come see us and we hope to see you again soon. Thank you for taking the time to give us your comments. Jackie Heathershaw manager/owner
I'm not a fan of motels but this one is nice. Clean rooms & bathrooms with a comfortable bed and sheets. Good selection for breakfast and friendly service. The decor is a little dated but very clean. There are not a lot of options in this town but this is certainly the best in town.
Thank you for your feedback on our motel. We are glad you chose to stay Best Western and hope you try us again sometime soon. We are a family run business and pride ourselves on customer service. Thank again and we hope to see you again soon. Jackie Heathershaw onwer
I stayed at the Best Western Plains Hotel, Wall, SD 10 years ago with a different dog. When I stopped of a snowy night I had forgotten my stay so long ago, but I clearly recalled the facility as I spotted the pet area and I was pleased to find an old friend . This is a High quality BEST WESTERN.
Simple but clean rooms, friendly service, nice pool area, and good "downtown" location. We stayed in a ground floor standard room which was convenient and was stocked with plenty of coffee. Nothing fancy, but probably the best place in Wall. Also, the water from the hot spring was fantastic! We would stay here again!
We are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay in our warm little friendly town. We hope you come see us again sometime and let everyone know it is a great stop over from the Badlands National Park. Jackie Heathershaw owner
Good room , great price - No problems despite the wind blowing about 50 MPH! Slept well , but didn't stay to breakfast - Quick wifi , plenty of plug ins , just a good Best Western stay .. Reasonably quiet room on second floor
Glad to hear you didn't blow away on your windy stay in Wall. We are happy to hear you had a good time and were pleased with your accommodations. We hope your travels brings you back this way again sometime. Jackie Heathershaw owner
I was a little nervous since it looked a little dated online but it was super clean and comfortable. The bathroom was very small and there was no closet but a small armoire. The staff was pleasant and the breakfast satisfying.
We are pleased to here that we were a nice surprise for you. Please tell your friends and come see us again sometime soon. Jackie Heathershaw owner
We stayed at the Best Western Plains Motel on our way through Wall, driving from Rapid City to Sioux Falls. Our arrival time was late (10p) and our departure time was early (7:30am). The front desk clerk checked us into our room quickly in the evening. The room was clean and more than acceptable for a discount motel room. It did not have the grimy unpleasant feel of some highway-adjacent motels. In the morning, a nice continental breakfast (with sausage and eggs) was presented in the motel game room. I would definitely stay here again should I ever find myself driving through Wall, South Dakota in the future.
Thank you for your feedback on our motel. We are glad you chose to stay Best Western and hope you try us again sometime soon. We are a family run business and pride ourselves on customer service. Thank again and we hope to see you again soon. Jackie Heathershaw onwer
Hotel staff were helpful and efficient in all our dealings. The room was spacious and clean; the exterior of the hotel was well kept and clean. This hotel is very convenient to the Badlands National Park, and we were able to see both the spectacular sunset and sunrise. Breakfast had a large variety; however, the eggs did not seem real. The breakfast area was clean and well organized. We brought our dogs with us and the dog area was very convenient and one of the nicer ones I have seen provided by hotels that allow pets. There is an additional charge for pets, but the room itself was very reasonable so that was not a concern.
Thank you for staying with Best Western and our property in Wall, SD We hope you have safe travels and come see us again soon. We are a great stop over for the Badlands National Park. Jackie Heathershaw owner
Neat, clean, efficient motel. I liked the firm bed. Free morning breakfast starting at 6 AM was high quality; we were impressed. Would not hesitate to stay again. This region has deep water wells; the water tastes fine but they have a sign on the mirror telling you to use ice if you want a cold drink since the well temperature is not cold.

A nice unassuming Best Western from the outside with the absolute best staff in west! The owner takes a hands on approach and is one of the friendliest people you will ever meet. The staff always ask if there's anything you need anytime you run into them. The rooms are comfortable and super clean. The showers (very important) have excellent water pressure and are a pleasant departure from many weak showers I've been subjected to at other hotels. The staff makes this place, it's a wonderful stay and I couldn't recommend it more. If you're going to the Badlands (which are amazing) this is your place. Thanks guys! Had a great time!
If you can ignore the huge presence of Wall Drug, this likable BW is a straight shot down the road from the west entrance of the Badlands. Get up early, have a good free breakfast and see wildlife at its best within 15 minutes. A nice cozy place to stay before communing with our wonderful natural world.
My husband and I went on an impromptu road trip and needed a hotel that accommodated dogs. Overall, we received great customer service. Room was huge with microwave/fridge. Excellent breakfast buffet that is much better than most free breakfast buffets. The location was super close to the Badlands and only an hour away from Mount Rushmore and Crazy Horse. Highly recommend this hotel if you are staying in Wall and making your way to Mount Rushmore/Crazy Horse.
We stayed at the Best Western Plains on our return Trip From Big Sky Montana Sat, March 26th. After a long day of driving, we just wanted a relatively clean place to sleep for the night. We reserved 2 rooms during the afternoon drive. Upon checking in we were very surprised by the nice updated lobby area and the courteous staff. (Free popcorn and coffee available!!). We had 2 ground floor rooms which were very updated (almost new in appearance) and very clean and comfortable. In the morning we walked to the pool building where the free breakfast was. The selection and quality was better than most of the hotels in any city. The staff was very hardworking, kept the selections available and kept the area very clean as well. We checked out the pool/hot tub area. WOW. It was like new, very clean and spacious......better than 90% of all hotels we have ever been to. The ownership obviously takes great pride in their hotel and trains their staff to do likewise. We will definitely make it a point to stay there whenever we need a room in the area and will recommend this hotel to any and every one. Thanks to the staff and owners!!
How great that we could give you a nice surprise. We hope you come see us again soon and let everyone know that there is a great place to stay in Wall
This motel was very clean and the staff extremely friendly. It looked like it has been recently remodeled. They have a nice selection at the continental breakfast. The bed was just a tiny bit firm for me but no complaints about anything else. The wireless internet access worked great.
We arrived in Wall in March to find just about everything closed--plus a snowstorm was predicted. This Best Western was one of the nicest, and the indoor pool is beautiful. We anticipated staying two nights, because of the storm, and we would have enjoyed spending time in the large, comfortable room an extra day.
When I saw the options in Wall, SD, I was disappointed to see they were all motels. We wanted to do the Badlands for 2 days and this was the only logical place for us to stay, so we used Tripadvisor and tried to pick the best motel we could find. Wow -- I was pleasantly surprised! We arrived to a friendly front desk staff and a very comfortable, CLEAN, gigantic room. We had paid around $10 extra for the family suite room with 3 beds and that was definitely worth it! Room had fresh paint and carpet and updated furnishings. Beds were very comfortable, shower was great. We liked it so much we decided to book an extra night. Indoor pool was fun for the kids. Hot tub was definitely on the small side but still relaxing. Breakfast was good and plenty of seating (in March). Convenience stores on every corner and dining options near Wall Drug. Make sure to check out the sunset at Pinnacle Point just a short drive from Wall. Grab a Subway lunch on your way to the Badlands for a midday picnic.
We are glad you had a pleasant surprise with us. We hope to see you again sometime. Tell your family and friends about us and the great little town of Wall, SD Jackie Heathershaw owner/manager
After hiking all day in the Badlands National Park we were ready for a hot shower and quiet, comfy nights rest! We got it!!! Thank you!! 2 queen room, super comfy bed and pillows, bonus (lots of pillows)!!! Room was very clean! The shower was clean, nice and hot and very spacious!! We had a fridge and microwave in room and after a nice meal downtown, we slept like babies!! :) Breakfast was amazing! French toast, biscuits and gravy, sausage, waffles, fresh fruit, cereal, muffins, donuts! Perfect start to recharge! The only reason for 4 star not 5 was the plastic light cover in bathroom fell down and broke when getting in shower and the biggest reason was the hot tub had way, way too many chemicals, could not breathe!! And we really needed a good soak after hiking, so a bit disappointed there, side note the pool itself was fine!!! Staff was great, friendly, very welcoming!! Would absolutely recommend and stay again!!
We are so happy to hear that you had a great stay with us at the Best Western. Arent the Badlands just beautiful? We hope you come see us again sometime and tell your firneds about the great little town of Wall. Jackie Heathershaw owner
We were very happy with the room! We got the king bed. Room was big and roomy. Very nice and clean! Breakfast was good, lots to choose from. Pool was nice. Workout room was good. Towel animals on the bed, personal touch by housekeeping. Would recommend this to our friends!
A friendly and welcoming family run motel with clean rooms and extremely comfortable bed. I didn't have breakfast but my traveling companion did and he couldn't say enough good things about the array of good fresh foods offered. This is a pet friendly place with a dog walk area that includes a garbage container and plastic bags to clean up after your pet. I would stay in no other place when in Wall SD.
Thank you for taking the time to respond to our survey. It so nice to hear great things about your stay with us. We hope you spread the word to your friends and family that Wall is a great place to stop anytime. Jackie Heathershaw manager/owner
We had to change our route & ended up in Wall, SD. Though the lady a the desk was sort blunt, it seemed she didn't really care if we stayed on not. I felt the price we we paying was high & so did the couple behind us. I had to have a handicapped parking spot & since all handicapped rooms were taken, I would take my chances if we went out to eat. When I asked about satin bedspreads (motels) are notorious for reusing the. She was annoyed. We got up at 7:30 but free breakfast had been devoured by the early riser. Room was clean, just more expensive for what you don't get...will avoid this route next time.
I am truly sorry for your experience with us. This is not acceptable for how a customer is treated at our property. I am so sorry that your experience was not a pleasant one. If possible I would like to get your full name so I can speak to the desk clerk that helped you so we can remedy the situation so it doesn't happen again. Please accept my sincere apologies and please come to Wall again sometime and we will make sure your are treated with the utmost care. Sincerely, Jackie Heathershaw
When the weather changed from 70 to 110 we bailed from camping to the motel. It was great for swimming after hiking. Room was just fine, nothing fancy and it was easy to go walk around town and see the local sites.
We are glad you enjoyed your time in Wall and the Badlands. It is a great stopover for families. We hope you come and see us again sometime soon.
Family run motel in a very small town. Surprisingly comfortable and clean. Nice enough to prop the door open to let in the evening air. Standard breakfast is offered plus there's a few fast food places close by. For more choices, drive 0.2 miles to "downtown" for shops, restaurants and the much hyped Wall Drug. Good base for a visit to Badland Nat'l Park.
We are so happy to hear about your stay with us. All comments help us to improve our service to others. We hope you spread the word to your friends on our nice little family friendly town. Sincerely, Jackie Heathershaw
We stayed here with a large group (about 16 adults) and were able to get a few rooms that accommodated families very well. I would recommend this property if you were looking for multiple families to stay in one room. There is a nice free breakfast and the property is located close to Wall Drug (a nice, short stop) and several other interesting attractions (Mount Rushmore, Badlands).

The property is up to the expected Best Western standards with friendly staff and comfortable rooms. The hotel was very busy but our room was still quiet. The restaurant is very pleasant but there are a number of choices in town.

We tried to get as far as we could before stopping for the night. We had stayed in Wall, SD before, so that was our goal for the night. Surprised to see the hotel still there, so we thought we would stay again. The front desk clerk wasn't too friendly at first, had the impression she was missing a TV program, but when I asked about restaurants that were still serving she recommended her favorites. The pool closed right after we checked in, so we couldn't enjoy that. The room was clean and a hot shower felt great. We didn't get to partake in the breakfast after eating so late that night before, we werent very hungry. Maybe next time! It was a great value and will stay again!
Thank you for staying with us. We have reviewed your comments, and have taken them into consideration. Thank you again for staying with us!!
This hotel is older but has been kept nice. Like many hotels this age the hotel doors exit to the outside. The room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was good. Has free onsite parking. Great location near the Badlands and Wall Drug. We got a great rate. Our only issue was that the shower water temperature liked to change making showering exciting.
Thank you for your comments. We are glad you chose Best Western for your stay and we hope to see you again sometime soon. Wall is a great place to stop over so tell your friends about us. Jackie Heathershaw manager
This is an older motel and does not have elevators to the second floor. It was raining on our arrival and the staff were very helpful in advising us on how to access our room under the canopy. They are well prepared for weather and other issues that travelers often have: there is a basket just inside the door with cloths for cleaning off vehicles or whatever. Breakfast is included - however, it is located in what they call the pool building - separate from the rooms. In our case the rain had stopped so no problem. Breakfast was plentiful and the room was constantly monitored and cleaned. This is a real plus as far as I am concerned. A great choice in Wall.
We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay. Thank your for choosing Best Western and we hope to see you again soon. Wall is a great stop over for travelers going to the Badlands National Park and also stopping in to see the famous Wall Drug Store. Jackie Heathershaw manager
We stay at this hotel, whether passing through or staying in the area each year for the past 3 years. They have great staff, they are helpful, courteous, and friendly. They know the area and were a great help with where to eat on days we wanted to eat in our room.
Thank you so much for your repeat business. We hope you spread the word to your friends and we look forward to seeing you again sometime soon. Jackie Heathershaw manager
What a fantastic evening I had. Rooms were exceptionally clean,small personalized touches throughout. I loved the letter from the owners telling a bit about themselves, lets you feel a little more like family. I also Loved the note on the mirror about the Hot Water, but if you want to know what that says, You'll have to stay to read it yourself. Trust me, You won't be disappointed!!
What a pleasant response from a great family. Glad you enjoyed your stay and we hope to see you in Wall again soon. Thank you for choosing Best Western and thank you for taking the time to post your comments. Jackie Heathershaw manager
This Best Western Plains motel was a great experince for the money. Good service with friendly staff that went out of the way to help you, clean rooms with plenty of towels, coffee pot for real early coffee, and TV guide and breakfast for travelers.
We appreciate your comments and are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay. Please come again and tell your friends about the great little town of Wall. Jackie Heathershaw manager
easy access to freeway, great location and extra activities available in the immediate area. National Park nearby which was a positive factor and plenty to see in local community too! Enjoyed internet service, had a good swimming pool area and nice breakfast area too!
Thank you for your comments. Wall is a great stop over for the Badlands National park and the famous Wall Drug. We hope to see you again soon and thank you for choosing Best Western. Jackie Heathershaw
We stayed at this hotel for one night as we were traveling through the area on our way to the Black Hills area. We enjoyed having an option for a two room suite with three queen beds for our family of 5. Since we were off season, the price was very reasonable. Breakfast was very good and we were able to walk to Wall Drug.
Glad to hear you enjoyed your stay with us . Our family rooms are very popular. We hope to see you again soon and thank you for choosing Best Western. Jackie Heathershaw
We stayed at the Best Western Plains Motel for 1-night in early Oct ($74). The hotel is located just N of the I-90 overpass on the road to Badlands National Park and ~2 blocks from “downtown” Wall. The 2-story, outside entry, wood-frame motel units are laid out in a long “U” that encloses the parking lot, with a pool and breakfast area along the road and the office at one end. Our double queen unit was spacious, with a 9 ft ceiling decorated with wood beams that complemented the other wooden accents. Its furnishings were typical of the BW brand (comfortable bed, table with 2 chairs, long chest of drawers, upright vanity, end table), as were the accessories (mini-fridge, microwave, coffee maker). The sink and vanity were in the corner of the room, adjacent to the small bathroom with bath and shower. The complementary breakfast was good but a bit sparse: french toast, scrambled eggs, sausages, pancakes and waffles, but little fruit (oranges only) and no yogurt. We stayed in Wall because its proximity to Badlands National Park allowed easy access for morning and evening photography. Otherwise, there is not much to draw you here beyond Wall Drugs, which is the ultimate in tourist kitsch. There is not much in the way of restaurants except the Cactus, a connected group that includes a bar, restaurant and family restaurant that takes up most of the 1-block downtown that is not occupied by Wall Drug. Otherwise, there are a couple of fast food places by the highway (Subway, Dairy Queen), and the only place we found for beer/wine was the gas station. The Plains Motel delivered modest value for a somewhat high price, but is saved by its BW standards. Unless you have a compelling reason to stay in Wall, you will find better value accommodations in Rapid City.
Thank you for your comments and I am so sorry you did not have a great time while staying in Wall. We pride ourselves on our small town hospitality and are disappointed in ourselves for not giving you a better welcome. Thank you for choosing Best Western and we will use your comments to try and improve our service to others. Jackie Heathershaw
we just did an overnight. can back the car right up to a first floor room door. the room was fine. breakfast was included and good. the pet walking area is a bit tucked away but fine. would stay here again if we ever made it back......had a good meal at Red Rock Restaurant.....
Thank you for your comments and for staying with us at the Best Western. We use all comments to try and improve our service to others. We hope to see you again and thanks again for staying with us. Jackie Heathershaw
Fantastic hotel, owners do it right! Superb customer service, rooms, breakfast, location, and anything else you can think of. If visiting the Badlands, Wall, or just making a pit stop, this is the place.
It is a great feeling to hear good news back from our guest who have stayed with us in Wall. It is a great small town and we love having you come to visit. Thank you for choosing Best Western and we hope to see you again soon. Tell your friends and family to come and see us too.
Clean, rustic, and roomy. My family and I stayed while visiting the Badlands, great location and you can walk to Wall Drug!!! I thought a nice touch was they put a towel on the biker's motorcycle seats in the morning to get the morning dew off. Would stay again:)
thank you for staying with us in Wall, We appreciate your comments and are glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. Wall is a fun little town and we hope your tell your friends about us. Jackie Heathershaw
Driving through Wall SD we had several choices for our last minute overnight. The Best Western was conveniently located right off 90. Room was clean and adequately supplied with what we needed. Continental breakfast was ready early which was nice since we were getting an early start. Food available was good. Would select this hotel again.
thank you for choosing Best Western and stopping over in Wall to stay with us. We appreciate your comments and hope you travels send you are way again sometime. Jackie Heathershaw
The Best Western in Wall is a great, family run hotel. The rooms are big and reasonable priced. The internet connection is fast. Breakfast provided a nice range of foods. Located close to Badlands National Park.
Thank you for your wonderful compliments to our property. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and Thank you for choosing Best western. Jackie Heathershaw
Nice big rooms that are clean and comfortable. Hallways are exterior which I like but if you have a lot of stuff there is no elevator to the second floor. Very reasonable for what you get. Breakfast was better than most Best Westerns. It is not far from the entrance to Badlands National Park so you can go in the morning and go back again in the evening. Very easy access. Wall is a small town known for the Wall Drug store which also brings in the buses which we didn't encounter that time of year. Don't expect to get good food. Not much to pick from.
We happy to hear you enjoyed your stay with while stopping over in Wall. Thai you for choosing Best Western and we hope to see and some of your friends soon. Spread the word. Wall is a friendly little town. Jackie Heathershaw
This place was really GREAT!!! The beds were super comfortable...with soft linens and mattresses like clouds. The rooms were spacious and clean. They include a nice continental breakfast with lots of options like fresh fruit, French toast, cereal, etc. And after a long day of driving, it was refreshing and therapeutic to take a swim in their indoor pool/spa. The pool towels were a little too small, but they offer an unlimited number, so it made little difference. Anyway, I highly recommend this hotel, especially for those looking to take the bypass through the beautiful Badlands!
We are happy to hear you were pleased with your stay. We hope you come this way again soon. Wall is a great small town stop over and we love hearing from our guest. Jackie Heathershaw
Facility was larger than I expected with good size rooms, comfortable beds, very clean and a very helpful staff. Breakfast is typical fare but generous and filling. Several good restaurants in the area. Small town and they close up early so be aware.
Thank you for choosing Best Western and thank you for having a one night stop in Wall. We appreciate your business and hope to see you again soon. Jackie Heathershaw
We had made reservations one mouth ago. We arrived at 4pm. We asked for a 1st floor room because my wife ad back surgery two mouth ago and it was hard for her to go up and stairs. The clerk at the front desk said rooms are 1st come 1st serve take it or live it.
I am so sorry that my front desk clerk was not accommodating. That is not what we strive for and we will make sure she sees this comment. Thank you for choosing Best Western. Jackie Heathershaw
