Nice retro motel

Friendly front desk. The room was clean and put together. We stayed in the King Superior. The bed and pillows were comfy. Room service was top notch. If we ever head back to Bozeman we will definitely be staying at the Sapphire.

The 50's retro feel of the hotel made it a special stay. The room was comfortable and the staff was responsive to all questions. It was an easy walk to downtown--shopping, restaurants.

Very fantastically unique motel. Close to MSU and downtown Bozeman. Staff was super friendly and accommodating. We stayed one night in a room and woke the next morning to a screaming baby- they moved us down to a similar room and we enjoyed the rest of our stay without hearing the baby! Spacious rooms and great detail. Loved how it was arranged and decorated. Closet was big with shareable space. They provide a steamer to straighten out those wrinkles too! Loved the game room and the drinks that were provided. We were able to celebrate our college student’s birthday there and it felt like a private space! We played games and cut the cake- it felt like we had gone back in time! Food trucks park right across the street for walk to meals options.

Not our cup of Tea!

It was an ok room. Style was Not our cup of tea though. Nice we could park right outside our room. Bathroom floors were a bit dirty. We knew going in what the vibe was going to be. We thought it was a bit over priced for what it was. We did enjoy the area. Found a brewery with good food in an old school building and they had a band. Really enjoyed this.

Old Fashioned Motel

We decided to try an old fashioned “motel”. This was just as expected. The room was updated but not totally current. Prob part of the nostalgia. Glad we tried it, but not for us.
