What guests say
8.9 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 464 guest reviews
The Evergreen earns consistently strong praise for its exceptional cleanliness, genuinely warm staff, and unbeatable position within walking distance of West Yellowstone's shops, restaurants, and the national park entrance. Thoughtful touches — complimentary snacks, pastries, and personal welcome notes — set it apart from standard motel stays. The main caveats are compact room sizes, notably thin walls that allow noise to travel freely between rooms, and a tight parking lot that can challenge drivers of larger vehicles.
