    We took a road trip to the Mount Rushmore area last week (October 2009). Keystone is a very small town that is obviously built around tourism. (Some of the hotels close for the winter season). We lucked out with our choice. The Holiday Inn Express is one of the newest in town. We ended up arriving during a snowy weekend and the first thing that the hotel staff asked when I checked in was how our trip up was. The lobby is not large but has several sitting areas, a fireplace, and a desk/ laptop so that a guest can check email, etc. The continental breakfast is off the lobby and better than average. We stayed for two days and the hot meat choice was bacon & scrambled eggs one day and sausage & cheese omelets the next, as well as biscuits, sausage gravy, a choice of toast and muffins, juices, and cereals. Rapid City newpapers were also available and there was a tv in the breakfast room; a plus since we were all checking out the weather forecast! Our room was a standard (w/king bed) but was roomy & bed was comfortable. No fridge but a flat screen tv. Decent sized pool and nice hot tub/spa. Lobby also had menus from several local restaurants. Short walk to "main street/boardwalk." Best features about hotel was the friendly and prompt service and how new/clean it all was. Only drawback (not hotel's fault) is that parking is alongside the hotel or at either end. A lot of vacant parking directly in front iof the hotel s reserved for "employees only." I asked about it and this refers to town employees...hard to imagine the small town has that many employees! Will definitely stay here again. Nice hotel and interesting area.

    I would highly recommend staying at this hotel. My daughter and I were taking a road trip across several states and this was definitely the best hotel we stayed in. It seemed new, clean, and had all the ammenities one would need. We were walking distance from restaurants and shopping and Mt. Rushmore was just a short drive up the hill. There was a swimming pool but we didn't use it because we were so busy. We thought the continental breakfast was one of the best ever--scrambled eggs, bacon, biscuits & gravy, yogurt, fruit, juice, and the usual toast, cereal, etc. We were traveling a little off-season so got a great, low rate. Would highly recommend!

    Very responsive front desk personnel and rooms were clean and good sized. Couple of blocks to downtown and an easy walk. Very close to Mt. Rushmore which makes it easy to drive up the hill for the night time program. Agree with other reviews on parking - very tight but adequate.

  • Great stay - would love to go back!

    We really enjoyed our stay. The room was large, clean and had everything we needed (we stayed in a suite and the kitchenette was a big plus for us). We spoke to several staff members on different days and everyone was friendly and helpful. The big breakfast was a plus and the location was beautiful. My only complaint was that you could hear your neighbors from time to time. The worst was when we has small kids in the room upstairs :-( But the pluses definitely outweighed that one minus. I would definitely stay there again!

  • Love the location, the center of most things

    Keystone is a very lively small town. Very impressed with the perfect base for exploring many attractions such as Mt. Rushmore, Sylvan Lake, Custer State Park and Wind Cave National Park. Hotel is nicely located. Lot of places to eat and shop within a walking distance. The staff was friendlly. Room was comfortable and quiet. Swimming pool was nice. It was also great to have a hot breakfast in the morning. The free breakfast is quite generous. Although the rate was little bit higher than I expected, I guess it's reasonable for Keystone in summer season. Definitely would stay here again.
