This hotel is beautiful, but a litte dirty in the room, the sitting chair was filthy as well as the carpet, even as old as the hotel is, those things can remain clean and updated. The roof top bar was gorgeous but the music choice was extremely loud, like being in a dance club, we all left and went somewhere else, Not relaxing at all.

Friendly staff and good location. Rooms and carpets could use some deep cleaning, particularly bathroom tile and carpet in rooms. They use some kind of air spray in the lobby areas which was quite strong.

The check-in staff were not friendly and when we only got one towel the second night we called and they said we had to come down and get it? The room was spacious and could have been a king bed, bed was hard. Property was nice but the breakfast was not at the hotel but was $15 each to Starbucks attached. The Irish pub, rooftop bar and location are all reasons to stay here but no hot tub or pool there are better values in town.

Best hotel in Rapid City

Beautiful lobby and cool rooftop bar. Our bartender, Grady, was great. Also, the hotel has a great gift shop as well.

Hotels.com Is Terrible

Horrible due to Hotels.com not Hotel Alex Johnson. As I clicked the Reserve button on app, I saw that app had changed my requested dates. App chat box refused to let me cancel. So I’m out the $200+ fee since I was in a different state during reserved date. I will not be using hotels.com again ever — specifically using Expedia instead today for my next trip.

Right in the heart of downtown so was able to walk for meals. And parking was free on the weekends when we happen to be there so saved a little coin. Oh… but most of the shops were closed on Sunday too… that must’ve been why!
