44 km from Mount Rushmore, Best Western Plus Rapid City Rushmore is set in Rapid City and provides free WiFi and express check-in and check-out. This 3-star hotel has air-conditioned rooms with a private bathroom. The hotel offers an indoor pool, hot tub and a 24-hour front desk. The hotel is new and in tip-top condition. Our room was well furbished, everything was clean, and breakfast provided us with a great start to the day. We particularly appreciated the nice receptionists who were always in a great mood and ready to help us with any questions we had. The hotel is also well situated if you are mainly staying in Rapid City to explore the Black Hills and Badlands.

Situated in Belle Fourche, AmericInn by Wyndham Belle Fourche features barbecue facilities. Featuring a fitness centre, the 3-star hotel has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi, each with a private bathroom. The property is non-smoking and is located 42 km from Adams Museum. This was our first stay at the AmericInn in Belle Fourche as it often is booked when we come through for work trips. I will attempt to stay here each time I am in the area on future trips. The breakfast is amazing! They have this lovely woman who makes you an omelet or waffles and they have so many choices of breakfast foods it’s really unheard of for a hotel. The interesting part is that at least when I booked it, I didn’t have to choose a rate that included breakfast as every room seemed to have that option (not sure if that is always the case but it was for our dates of travel). The pool/spa here is nice, clean and the rooms were equally so. The staff (two of which we interacted with are the actual owners) are so friendly and responsive. I met a gentleman who travels for work in the parking lot and he volunteered without me asking his opinion that this is “the” place to stay in the area.

Located in the heart of Deadwood, this sprawling South Dakota resort boasts an on-site casino and 2 restaurants. Each guest room comes equipped with a 37-inch flat-screen cable TV. Adams Museum is 200 metres from the accommodation. I was shocked how nice this "Resort" was. Not a normal Holiday Inn Express this is a Resort. Very nice, quiet and clean resort. Very comfortable beds. Very convenient to fun: Casino, restaurant on site or nearby restaurants, walking into downtown Deadwood, close to outdoor theatre for movies/music, and convenient drive to Spearfish Canyon, Mt Rushmore, etc.
