“Always a fun time!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 9, 2013

We have stayed here several times and it is always a great experience. The waterpark is great fun for the whole family. You can also get food in the attached restaurant, making it very convienent. The hotel is showing some wear, which is to be expected based on the amount of traffic they receive, but it is clean and that is the most important thing. Highly recommended!

“Good deal in December!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 7, 2013

Near the interstate, and right beside a huge restaurant and water park, this is a good choice. We paid $75 including taxes for a room with 2 queen beds. Breakfast buffet is good, and the staff friendly and efficient. It is worth being a member of the Marriott Rewards program!

“Great family hotel!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 11, 2013

My family and I stayed here for 4 nights and loved our experience. We picked a package for a room and 5 water park tickets per day. The room was very clean and cozy with a big comfortable bed. The room also had a flat screen tv, micro/fridge, desk and a big clean bathroom. The room was serviced well everyday and the breakfast was excellent with plenty of food and coffee. But what makes this hotel so great is the attached water park. You can walk in and out of it from the hotel as you wish. There is plenty for the kids and adults in the water park and ALL of us loved it. Good location right of I-90 with restaurants and gas stations close as well as all of Rapid City very close. I would love to stay here again the next time we vacation in Rapid City!

Room Tip: Avoid the ground floor at all costs and try to get a room opposite of the water park.

“My first choice in Rapid City”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 19, 2013

The staff at the Fairfield Inn Rapid City truly make this property worth staying at. I visit Rapid City monthly for work and the Fairfield Inn is where I want to stay. During the year I will stay at Marriott properties well over 110 nights, from JW Marriotts to Full Service Marriotts to Courtyards, and Rapid City Fairfield Inn goes well beyond any other property to acknowledge my business and make me feel welcome.

The rooms are clean, the food in Sliders is above what you would expect for a hotel restaurant, and the location for the property makes getting around Rapid City easy.

As a platinum premier Marriott member the Rapid City Fairfield Inn ranks as one of my favorites.

Room Tip: With a family I would suggest the first floor closer to the water park. For the business traveler I...
