We had been traveling all day (but who hasn't when they arrive at a hotel!) and were pleasantly surprised at the ideal location of the hotel. It's right on Main Street, walking distance to all the great restaurants and shops. The hotel itself was is very cute, clean, charming and priced right. I can't get over the great hospitality at the front desk. The gentleman was funny, friendly and quickly made me forget that I had been traveling all day. I don't normally write reviews, but I love that I had a smile on my face while I walked to my room... it's nice when a stranger can do that, it really got my trip off to a great start. As far as the hotel goes, my room was clean, had all the standards, and a great view of Baldy Mtn. My stay was pleasant and I will always come back to this location. The man at the front desk continued to go above and beyond my whole stay; he was more than happy to tell me about the town, where to eat, what to see, etc. I had a great experience and know you will too!!

I selected this hotel on recommendations from a friend. I booked this room through the Best Western 1-800 number. I booked a two bed queen room with a kitchenette without a problem.
This property is on the main street coming into Ketchum and at the first traffic light. It was easy to access and there was plenty of parking.
The woman at the desk was helpful and showed us where our room was located at the back of the hotel. The front of the hotel faced the mountains and I asked if there was anyway we could change rooms to take in that view. She was able to accomadate the change and we went up to our room.
We passed a nice enclosed pool area but did not use it. I noticed there was a funny smell in all the hallways. I do not know if this was do to recent carpet cleaning but it smelled like sweaty socks each time I went out. There was never an odor in our room.
The room was large and clean with a king sized bed. It was a jacuzzi room but I found it quite strange that the tub was not in the bathroom but in the corner of the room across from the bed. There was a nice double ,granite sink outside of a large shower. I liked the Oil of Olay ammenities that were left in the room. There was a microwave and small refrigerator and coffee maker in the room which was handy considering there is no breakfast included in the room rate. We were able to make breakfast and lunch in our room. Sliding glass doors opened to a small balcony with chairs and a mountain view.
I found the room a little dark even with the lights on and curtains open. I did not realize how noisy the traffic would be facing the main street. Large trucks moved past all day and night and I found it difficult to fall asleep. I think it would have been better facing the back of the hotel but I do not know for sure.
I thought the hotel average considering the price, lack of included breakfast and all the noise. I think I would try another property if visiting again.

As a very seasoned travelers, I will say that we're very easy going. Hotel experience generally fades into the background of the whole picture unless something noteworthy pulls it forward. Astonishing, really that this time we're driven to write a review to throw out a flag to other travelers, when in 20 years, we have never made a stink. During a drive from Oregon to Jackson WY we decided to take the extra hour and a half to drive to Ketchum/Sun Valley so we could enjoy a quiet hotel and Sunday morning at our favorite breakfast spot. Through a google search we found this hotel and called for reservations. There was one room with a king available for around $140-, so we assumed this was a fairly decent place to be priced thus during the resort "off season". We booked it with assurances that we could arrive late.
The hotel is in a decent location in Ketchum, and the gentleman at the front desk was the best thing the hotel had going.
The room was outdated and cavernous, the bed fairly flat, and the pillows consisted of what appeared to be four very small square sofa pillows with two cases. The television had no remote, and very poor sound. The bathroom was supplied with two anemic overwashed bath towels, two hand towels and two washcloths, and the only real indication we could find that some attempt was being made to raise the standard of this place - quite nice spa-like shower gels (1 small bottle for 2 people) and some face cream samples.
After a late arrival following several long days of travel, our hopes of sleeping late (indicated also by the privacy tag we hung on the door - a rarity for us) were dashed with the first shift of housekeepers calling up and down the hallway about their day yesterday, running vacuums up and down the hallway, and while cleaning the room next to ours, repeatedly crashing the vacuum againsed the wall. It felt like visiting your relatives that wake up at 5:00 and bang around the house to throw hints that it's time to wake up. Because this went on, and on, long beyond the time it would naturally take to vacuum a room or hallway, it became clear that it was a sort of coreographed rousting technique - shortly after 8:00 (check out time was 11:00). Several calls to the front desk went unanswered - the only way we could speak to someone about it was to go to the desk, request the manager, and have to speak with him in front of a group of other guests who were having coffee, which was very embarrassing. The manager had absolutely no interest in putting forth any more effort in addressing the issue than it took to endure the time of my Husband's complaint with a blank face. The reason for this review is because the only explanation we received was that this philosophy of housekeeping is their policy... intimating that housekeeping is far more important than their guests. Once they have your credit card, it feels like they simply could not care less.
With the exception of the evening attendant and the shower gel, absolutely nothing about this hotel is special, or worth the price. If you go to Ketchum, do yourself a favor and keep looking. There are great places that will lend to an experience worth the wonderful town... and that will lend to your ability to sleep a little past 8:00 on a Sunday morning if your vacation calls for it. Motel 6 would honestly be an improvement.

The service was rude and some women ( blonde ) said she was the owner was very curt, and the rooms were soso a little outdated..
beds were a little flat, But the view was fabulous everything else on our trip was great!
