    We recently spent two days in Custer, SD, and it was fantastic. Custer is a perfect base camp for taking in all the surrounding sites including Mt. Rushmore, Crazy Horse Monument, Wind Cave, Jewel Cave, Custer St. Park wildlife loop, and the Custer St. Park Sylvan Lake area including Black Elk Peak-Little Devils Tower-Cathedral Spires hikes.

    Initially, we had booked stay in various towns, but changed this and made Custer our main stay. This allowed us a central location, whilst we took days out to State Park, Mount Rushmore, Deadwood, Sturgis and other places, and saved us from packing/unpacking for the duration of our trip!

    Great central location to Custer State Park, Wind Cave, Jewel Cave, Mt Rushmore. You can get a decent meal. It is not just burger restaurants. Custer State Park has incredible wildlife especially at dawn and dusk. It is as good as most National Parks. The Custer tourist area is the same as any of the others but the buffalo sculptures set it apart. There is also a farmer's market downtown.

    A charming venue where to stay when visiting Mount Rushmore area. The property has many amenities for guests including sport facilities (basketball playground and two heated pools) a cafe where to eat breakfast, lunch or dinner and complimentary snacks. The staff is friendly and ready to assist customers for any need. It is located in a natural setting just a minute away from Custer main avenue where stores and restaurants are available. Mount Rushmore can be accessed in a 20min drive through a scenic route.

    Another hotel showing it's age a little. Room was pretty plain. It could have at least done with a picture on the wall to liven it up. Having said that it was clean and the bed comfortable so for a one night stop over it was OK. It's very well located being just a short walk to the main street and all the bars and restaurants. The guy on the front desk was very friendly. Breakfast was pretty standard, waffles etc. It wasn't stupidly expensive so we felt that it was value for money.

    So glad we found this gem in Custer, South Dakota. It’s well worth the drive from Rapid City, and it’s conveniently located so you can stay a couple days and hit all the sites like Crazy Horse, Mount Rushmore, Black Hills, Bear Country, Custer State Park, etc. It’s nice to get away from the overpriced big chains, and actually meet the owner of the property. Eric puts a high priority on cleanliness and sanitation and it shows. We highly recommend!!!

    Everything was great at this hotel including the price!! The place was clean, comfortable and they served the best breakfast of all the hotels during our trip(which totaled 4 hotels in 4 days). They were also the cleanest hotel by far!! I’m glad they have additional fees if people smoke in the rooms. This made a huge difference! The staff was very friendly & helpful! I highly recommend this particular hotel. I wish they could all be like this!

    Nice, easy stay in Custer. Quick walk down the main street to all the restaurants and shops. Rooms were clean and perfectly comfortable. Nothing fancy, just a nice Best Western. We found the staff really friendly and helpful. Even though it was very full, it was quiet at night. Enjoyed the dive bar the Captain's Table that's right down from the rooms. Great place for one last nightcap before heading to bed.

    Very well located motel near downton Custer with clean and spacious rooms. Our beds were comfortable and we could park right in front of our room. Breakfast was very good with free coffee available at all times. Staff was very friendly and helped immediately to fix the settings on the heating as it got a bit too cold the first night. Very great value for money for this place.

    Very friendly staff at check in. The staff was also extremely helpful in making recommendations for dining, shopping and proximity to attractions. We had an issue with our television and the hotel sent someone over immediately to fix it. The rooms were large, comfortable and clean. We really enjoyed our 3-night stay in Custer and at the Bavarian Inn.

    We stayed here for 4 nights and found it a comfortable and well situated hotel which we would be happy to recommend. Custer itself is a charming little town well situated for Mount Rushmore, the Iron Mountain Road, Needle Highway and Custer and Wind Cave Parks (with all the bison)

    This motel exceeded my expectations. I absolutely loved the retro style. It was spotless. And I mean SPOTLESS. Bed very comfy and staff lovely. And on top of that the location was right in the centre. If we ever go back to Custer, we are absolutely staying there again.
