We visit Pierre often because our relatives live nearby, and this was the nicest stay we’ve had. I’m not sure why we hadn’t stayed here before! The lobby was welcoming, the rooms were clean, and the pool and hot tub were very enjoyable. The staff was friendly and quick to help with anything we needed. Pierre isn’t a huge town, but there were plenty of places to eat close to the hotel, which was convenient. We happened to stay during a Christmas market and it was such a fun way to end our trip we’ll definitely be coming back soon. This will be our go-to hotel from now on.
