What guests say
8.3 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 212 guest reviews
The Historic Wapiti Lodge earns consistently positive sentiment for its unbeatable proximity to Yellowstone's east entrance, spacious and clean rooms, and kitchenette facilities that give guests real independence. However, recurring frustrations — particularly the undisclosed closure of the restaurant and lounge, an unkempt exterior, and occasionally underpowered air conditioning — prevent it from feeling fully polished. Travellers willing to self-cater and manage expectations on amenities generally come away satisfied.
