Top Challis Hotel Reviews

Hotel Ketchum

10/10 Excellent

"Loved everything about this place."

Stagecoach Inn

10/10 Excellent

"I am writing to share how much I enjoyed my recent stay. Your hotel is very quaint, and I found the room to be both nice and clean. The property is well-maintained, and I particularly enjoyed the backyard sitting area with its beautiful river and mountain views. The location is also excellent, as it is within walking distance of the lovely downtown area. The breakfast was delicious, specifically the fresh fruit, breads, bagels, and oatmeal. The coffee was also great. Additionally, I want to commend your staff for being so friendly and helpful throughout my visit."

Red Rock Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"We were greeted by two adorable young ladies (probably in their teens), welcoming smiles. The property is wonderful, clean, large rooms, large bathrooms and everything was immaculate. We would have spend a second night but needed to move on. The property is near the local 24 laundry which is also clean, and a couple local restaurants. Highly recommend"

Northgate Inn Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Air conditioning was effective. Nice attentive staff. My pet was comfortable and felt welcomed. Hotel was quiet. We didn't love the overflowing trash can at the back entrance of hotel(where we entered and exited the building to get to our room)and overflowing dumpster next to the parking lot. Though I'd probably stay there again. "
