WELCOME HOME TO THE HISTORIC MOUNTAIN VIEW HOTEL Built in 1907, restored in 2000. Purchased by current owners Kat & Mike in Jan.2014 This Historic Hotel offers you warmth,quiet and a relaxing stay perfect for friends and families. Rooms, Suites and friendly faces make the Mountain View your premier lodging in the Snowy Range Mountain Region of Medicine Bow National Forest. No matter what season you enjoy or type of recreational activity you indulge in...You can find it in the Snowy Range Mountains in Centennial, WY. Make your next stay the Mountain View. Welcome Home.
Cozy hotel with very friendly owners, we loved our conversations with Mike and enjoyed his delicious food, Kathleen served us the best coffee in the mountains, it has a great location to get to Snowy Range and walking distance to good restaurants in the evening. We visited with friends and enjoyed their dining area to hangout in the evening, once Mike realized we were there he even got us some hot tea and cookies. I assume it would be great to stay year round when they are open, it would be a lovely place to unwind in summer and fall as well. We are looking forward to staying there again as soon as we can.
Thank You for such kind words. We work daily to make our guests feel like Family and we were happy to achieve this with you. Thank You for choosing us and we do look forward to hosting you again in the future. Kathleen and Mike

This is an excellent historic hotel! The rooms are large, clean, and quiet with comfortable beds and pillows and scenic views of the Snowy Range Mountains. The owners, Mike and Kathleen, are onsite and operate a well run bed and breakfast inn. Mike is a professional chief and cooks the best omelettes I’ve ever had anywhere! He also roasts his own coffee beans for delicious coffee to go with the outstanding breakfast. We came back for a second night because this small B&B is so good and for the amazing breakfast.
We are so glad to hear you enjoyed your visits to Centennial and your stay with us. We take pride in making good food and comfortable rooms. We hope you will visit us again!

We always enjoy our annual stay at the Mountain View. The past few several years we have stayed in the Paintbrush Suite, which not only offers a comfortable king-sized bed but also a separate room with chair, couch and TV where we can hang out and read, talk, or take up our annual Scrabble challenge! Breakfast is the best you can find, and tbe coffee is awesome (we also bought some to take home)! The scenery right there in Centennial is great, and the Snowy Range is a short drive away. Kat and Mike are very welcoming--if you chose to book a stay here, you will be very glad you did!
WE so enjoy your yearly reunion, and we value the fact you choose us over and over again. Your words are so warming to our hearts. We consider your Family part of us....thank you

FIRST- if you are thinking of this as a traditional “hotel,” you may be disappointed. This is more of a VRBO / AirBnB type rental place made up of several units. That is not to say it is a bad thing- the name hotel in the title is just a misnomer, in my opinion, regardless of it maybe being a “hotel” in the past. I stayed in the Buffalo Roam room. Check in was easy, host was nice and responsive, and room was pretty clean with the exception of an item I brought to the host’s attention. I guess being an older building, the walls are fairly thin and I heard talking (to the point I honestly understood the conversation) coming from an adjacent room. The little extras were thoughtful: k-cup coffee, complimentary snacks, and water bottles. If you are staying in Centennial, your options are limited, but I would certainly stay here again!…

This is not an Inn nor a Hotel. It is an unattended low-brow VRBO. Contrary to it’s advertising, it has no services of any type and no one on site. Everything is done remotely. No television service; no cafe; no lobby. Nothing. The room was like a spare bedroom at your cousin’s cabin. Nothing charming about it. This is not a nice place.

Great place; a hidden gem. A family wedding took us to this area of WY and we didn’t really know what to expect regarding the hotels. But this was a pleasant surprise. Great directions; lovely room, largest room (suite actually) that we’ve been in for ages. Nice little cafe downstairs. Couldn’t have been better. Thanks much!

I have travelled much of United States in the last 25 years and our stay in their Wildflower "Suite" left much to be desired e.g. *No cutlery or ceramic plates *Only one sink with loose faucet *Only a microwave (no ability to cook anything!) *Not even a toaster! *Overpriced (lack of amenities) *Initially no additional toilet paper Two stays in one - first and last!!! The only positive - good pillows!

I really wanted to like this place but there was a lot lacking. I booked it through a hotel booking website but I think it is now run as an Airbnb. My experience is based on a ground floor room on the front side of the building in the Buffalo Roam Queen Suite. Maybe another room would be better? Cons: 1) A local family was using the front porch as their personal hangout spot after the coffee shop closed. We had the door and windows open because there was no AC in the room. The dad and kids were playing corn hole and yelling. Their unleashed dog came through our door and we had to kick it out. 2) The coffee shop was on the other side of the wall from our room. Very early AM we were awaken by really loud pounding like someone banging a meat cleaver on the table. When my husband asked the coffee shop to be a little more quiet they gave him a disgusted look. The banging went on all morning. 3) There is NO staff on site for the hotel. If you have problems tough luck. 4) Their is a tv in the room with no channels. If you want to watch something you need your own subscription to a streaming service. 5) There was a step to get up into the bathroom. Typically not a problem except when you are going to the bathroom at night. An easy way to fall on your face. Pros: 1) The location was good 2) The price was ok…

We stayed in the Indian Paintbrush Suite. It was the most comfortable place we booked in three weeks of travel. The host has thought of every detail! Very spacious, well furnished rooms. Perfectly cleaned. This is the best location for visiting the Snowy Range, as it is close enough to drive in for an early morning hike to beat the crowds. Centennial does not offer much, but this hotel and cafe are worth a visit.

I like this place. It’s an older building, but updated. Charming room—no a/c but at 8000 ft a fan works fine. Clean, nice bed, nice bathroom. Beautiful setting. Attached cafe has coffee and pastries. Someone cares about this place, and it shows. No 2 inch gaps under the bathroom door, and the stopper in the sink works! (First tell that someone cares!). A little cheaper and a nicer room than the place across the street.

Stopped in while day touring in the Snowy Range to eat lunch. Ownership has changed since our last visit last year, but we were very pleased with the menu offerings and especially the friendly service. We learned that the chef is really a classically-trained chef, justifiably proud of his craft. So do not expect a hamburger and fries. Rather expect a culinary treat, and take time to enjoy it.

We stayed here for a small conference. We loved it. Each room has everything you need. They have thought of everything. It is very comfortable. The beds were great. Great towels. Nice coffee shop downstairs.

This gorgeous historic hotel was the perfect place to stay before heading off into the Snowy Range. The Wildflower Suite was roomy, comfortable and we enjoyed the nice touches. My children and I loved it. The breakfast was filling and scrumptious, and the coffee was fabulous. The proprietors made us feel at home, we look forward to being able to come back next time we are in Wyoming.
