Detailed Reviews
*****(5/5 stars) Myself, sister & husband spent one night (12/30/2019) at Branson’s Best motel. We have stayed at this motel before because for a rate of $69.95 + taxes ($78.42) for their king room, you will receive a restful sleep, clean room, updated bathroom with glass door walk-in shower + their breakfast is quite tasty! I had their biscuit & gravy, 2 sausage links, peach yogurt with tropical fruit + their strawberry/kiwi juice (yummy)! The reception staff are extremely friendly & accommodating! This is my favorite motel to stay while visiting SDC, shows, & shopping. I strongly recommend purchasing, at the front desk, tickets for The Acrobats of Shanghai! You will thoroughly enjoy their show & is conveniently located about 1 mile from the motel. Branson’s Best Motel is the best value for your money!!!

I rate a hotel/motel on numerous criteria: comfort of bed, softness of towels, room amenities, cleanliness, staff accessibility and responsiveness to my requests, quality of breakfast, quiet surroundings, bathroom safety, convenience to shows/activities, consideration and implementation of COVID-19 protocols, great hot coffee, good value in correlation to price, ease of making and changing reservations . All of those aspects were reviewed and this motel had outstanding results. We have stayed at numerous motels over the years, never being loyal to any one place but Branson’s Best will streamline my visits because I will continue to book my stay here. No more making 5 calls all over the place and worrying about taking a risk at a new motel. By the way, it’s fun to come back from an evening show and find delicious desserts... warm cobblers, soft serve ice scream and fresh cookies to finish the day.

A lot to digest? Read an AI-generated summary of recent traveler reviews.
I was reluctant when I booked this motel/hotel. But the reviews were all on point!
It has a great location to everything you want to be near
The rooms are very clean, spacious, with comfortable beds and great water pressure.
You have a full breakfast every morning and as the best bonus a dessert spread every night including ice cream, cookies, and cobbler!
The pool was clean and nice!
Every one we encountered was very polite and helpful.
The price was unbelievable for what all you get! We stayed at a holiday inn on our trip to Branson and I would easily compare this place to that but even better because it’s a fraction of the cost and you get dessert!
Hope this helps! Me and my family will definitely come back and stay here!!

Bransons Best provided a clean room and good service. The location is nice because it is a short distance off busy Highway 76, the main highway past the theaters, and other entertainment venues. The hot breakfast was tasty which included sausage, scrambled eggs, biscuits, gravy, potatoes, yogurt, waffles, donut holes, milk, toast, pastries, as well as coffee, assorted juices, and several dry cereals. In the evening coffee, cobbler and ice cream, as well as cookies are offered, but you need to get there early, as they will run out.

Thank you very much for such a nice review. We are very happy you enjoyed our hot breakfast! We apologize if you didn't get the desserts :( or perhaps not enough, we have a formula and it works really good, basically we never run out, our desserts are so tasty maybe we had more guests than normal that night. We will do our best to make sure this doesn't happen again. Come back and see us :)

Branson,s Best is the best hotel that we have ever stayed in. The room was spotless and the sheets looked like they had been ironed on the bed and so white one would think that they were new. The owner, Natalia is so helpful and friendly that we felt like she was a life long friend of ours. She is an extremely hard worker and takes pride in her hotel. Her staff is very dedicated to doing their job and you can tell that they take pride in doing it well. The breakfast is super good and the hot cobbler, ice cream cookies and coffee at night add a good touch to help you meet new friends which we did do. It is in a very good location and within minutes of the many theaters and attractions. Their rates are very good and we met many guest who are repeat guest. Some come as many as 4 times a year. Will definitely stay there again. Thank you Natalia and staff for making our 4 nights stay the best ever.

We usually stay in hotels in the 120 - 150 a night range so I was a little nervous about this at first. We have 3 littles 5 and under so I'm always worried about them crawling on the floor when we travel but I found absolutely nothing wrong with this place! Cleaner than some higher priced hotels and staff is amazing! Breakfast was what you would expect at a hot breakfast from a hotel. Beds where comfortable, fridge in the room, no microwave but we where fine with that and I can't say enough...spotless!!
Will definitely stay here from now on when we are in Branson!

The hotel was great! We had a clean room next to the pool with great service. The breakfast was amazing especially the biscuits and gravy. The hotel location was perfect, very close to everything. The only improvement this hotel needs is to add microwaves in the rooms to warm up leftovers.

Thank you very much for this great review. We want to put the microwaves into the rooms, but our alarm system is connected with the fire department, which makes everything a little bit complicated. We do have microwaves in the breakfast room that our guests can use anytime they want :) . Hope you see you again soon

We usually travel in our motorhome. Because of time constraints, we flew and needed a reasonably priced hotel with a complimentary breakfast and one that would be near the shows and restaurants. We wanted to share the “Branson Christmas Experience” with our longtime friends who have never been to Branson. The friendly staff at Branson’s Best accommodated us with two spacious, exceptionally clean rooms side by side. Each room had two comfortable queen beds with multiple pillows, a large tv, a refrigerator (no microwave), a shower with wonderfully hot water and a toilet in a room separate from the sink and dressing area, and a table with two chairs. The elevator to the office and dining area was very convenient. The complimentary self-serve breakfast had so many choices. The hot, flaky biscuits and gravy were some of the best I have eaten. The only item missing that we would have liked was fruit. The staff replenished the food as soon as an item was low and kept the areas clean. Every evening from 9-11 p.m. complimentary dessert was available in the dining room…soft ice cream, cookies, cobblers, coffee and tea. We would stay here again, when not traveling in our motorhome..

We stayed three nights in this hotel and were pleased with our experience. The hotel is older but has been well kept and maintained. Our main complaint is with the lack of outlets for recharging cell phones and other devices. The breakfast was very good and the added treat of nighttime snacks was a nice bonus. Also, the rooms do not have microwaves but you are allowed to use the microwave in the breakfast area. We would definitely stay here again.

My husband and I usually stay at a chain hotel when traveling as he is a Gold member and we earn points. We decided to give this place a try due to the reviews and the fact that it was way more economical than the chain hotel. Save your money and stay here! The rooms were immaculate, the bed and pillows were comfy. It is an older motel that has updated the rooms, but other than the bathroom being on the small side it has all the amenities you could want. They serve two kinds of cobbler with ice cream as well as cookies from 9 to 11 pm. The complimentary hot breakfast was as good or better than the chain hotels and the staff was friendly. The exterior of the motel was clean and well kept as was the lobby and breakfast room. Parking was good and it has an elevator. It is close to all the attractions. I would definitely stay here again.
