El Portal Motel turned out to be a pleasant surprise in the middle of a desert. The staff were friendly, gave us some valuable tips about the area & made us feel very welcome, which was especially important after an exhausting day in the Death Valley. more

Welcome to the town of beatty, full of trailers, trash and rude people. This motel is no exception. Made a reservation, but had to cancel due to a change of travel schedule.

Our brief stay at Beatty's Nevada El Portal Motel was a very memorable one. Unfortunately, there is nothing pleasant to reminisce about: our room was noisy, smelly and dirty - simply filthy, dilapidated dump!

Having said that, it was comfortable and our room was very clean. The motel is ideally located if you are visiting Death Valley. Beatty... more

An exciting, upscale, romantic western motel this is not! But wait! The El Portal motel in Beatty, NV, however, provides a comfortable and quiet night's sleep for very little, about $45 double. We stayed there in mid June, 2007 after seeing other visitors reviews on TripAdvisor, which have been favorable, except for the guy who got shut out due to... more
