The Old Faithful Inn, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming

Why it's a Family Vacation

Take the family out the Yellowstone National Park and see the geyser basins, buffalo, bears and the Old Faithful Geyser. The 325 room Old Faithful Inn was built in 1904 and was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1987. The hotel is right next to the Old Faithful Geyser and the Upper Geyser Basin. Its central location makes it an ideal base for exploring the rest of the natural wonders of Yellowstone.

Plan on spending the lunch hours resting in a cool spot so you can avoid the heat and the tour buses that stop at the inn each afternoon. Watch the Old Faithful erupt in the early morning or early evening and you will have it to yourself. Park visitors not staying in the park arrive late and leave early because the drive out is about two and a half hours.

The Price of Romance

Rooms at the Old Faithful Inn start at around $96.
