Opinions SHOSHONE INN Death Valley National Park

Great little motel. Modern interiors. Friendly staff. Stayed one night.

Kind of a surprise. Figured a 1 star by itself out there would be a place just to sleep, which of course it is, but actually is a nice place with nice people, in a cool spot. Clean, with character, fair price, and the right location. I’ll go back.

The rooms are simple and basic. This is a MOtel, not a hotel. Floor had all kinds of little pieces of gravel on it - like they didn't bother to vacuum it. The bathroom is tiny, the showerhead made for shortish people - I'm 5'6" and I barely fit under it, but someone taller would struggle. We had an ice bucket in our room but couldn't find an ice machine. When my husband went to the front desk to ask reception where the ice machine was, the desk was unoccupied. He counted 8 people waiting to check in... After about 15 minutes of waiting he gave up. The restaurant was poor as well - limited choices on the menu, and what we had (Reuben sandwich and ham/cheese sandwich) was as greasy as they could be. There is NO PHONE SERVICE of any type at this motel, however there is strong Wi-Fi in the rooms

This unique hotel has both classics and modern rooms with a warm spring pool. Historic sites and museum within walking distance. Along with a Bar/Restaurant, Quickie mart across the street.

I love this place. It's clean and comfortable and the hot water is fantastic. It's kinda rustic, but you're in the middle of the desert amd it should be. It has a great vibe and character. The natural pool is super cool. I suggest bringing food, there not good food nearby.

We really enjoyed our stay here! Our room was clean and comfortable, the entrance doors are a little thin, but we had no safety concerns. The front desk manager gave us the history of the town, which was so cool! We loved walking around the town and exploring, and would love to come back.

A great base camp for your desert adventure. Don’t let the exterior of the motel turn you off. I stayed in the back building, the room was very nice. Heat worked well in the cold January desert night! Will sure come back! (Don’t miss the microbrewery in nearby Tecopa, hidden in the middle of nowhere!)

Il motel è situato in un paesino di 18 abitanti, è a ore di macchina da qualsiasi altro centro abitato, sembra di essere in un film (horror), ogni tanto passava un camion per sbaglio, esperienza comunque unica e bellissima se non avete paura di dormire nel nulla cosmico, per fortuna oltre a noi si è aggiunta un altra auto nella notte. In inverno solo il market del distributore era aperto, il bar ristorante invece chiuso.

UPDATE: Stayed in a different room this time in the main building of the Inn. A much better experience than the last visit a few weeks earlier. This King Bed w/kitchenette room was much nicer, with better security door lock system and clean. If you have a choice, stay in the main Inn building – you’re also much closer to the office and firepit (at night). Again, the staff is always friendly and helpful so no complaints there. Added new photos of the latest room, which I would give "4 stars."

Well, this is a tough one to rate. We have stayed here several times now and have always enjoyed this location and the staff at the front desk. This stay was really no exception, but I must be honest in our experience this time around. First, the staff is always polite, friendly, and helpful. They do offer you bagels, fruit, yogurt, and coffee for breakfast snack inside the front office. While the rooms are very large and have all the standard amenities, the house cleaning could be improved upon. See photos, refrigerator was covered in dust, the drawers had dead bugs in them and the door sill to the room had a large space/gap that almost anything could crawl under. Would we stay here again – the answer is yes, but you really do not have much of an option since it is the only inn in town. We do like this place and only hope they can improve on the housekeeping, which would make this an even better place to stay.

Fantastic lodging option near Death Valley NP. The rooms are very thoughtfully set up--soft towels, kitchenette, ample toiletries, comfortable bed, etc. However, unless you sleep like a rock, you'll want noise canceling headphones! The walls are paper thin. You'll hear your neighbors talking, coughing, and snoring. Also note that the front desk is only staffed in the afternoons, so plan ahead and don't lose your key.

Un endroit simple mais super pratique pour une pause sur la route de Death Valley.

Rooms were nicely renovated and the staff was very friendly. It's a great location if you are heading to Death Valley National Park.

We discovered this place on our first trip to Death Valley over fifteen years ago. And we try to stay here whenever we are in the area. It is perfectly situated for easy access to Death Valley and other spots.
The buildings are somewhat date, but the interiors are comfortable. One advantage this place has like no other is the spring-fed pool you can use during your stay.
The rooms were comfortable, it is a very short walk to the restaurant across the street with other interesting sites like Dublin Gulch within walking distance.
Wifi reception in the rooms worked well and the area is on average very peaceful and quiet.

Attention, ce sont des voleurs ! Nous avons été bloqués par la tempête Hillary, toutes les routes pour rejoindre leur hôtel étaient bloquées. Le seul accès nous faisait faire un détour de 6h de voiture (avec 2 enfants), ils refusent de nous rembourser !!! A fuir!!!

데스밸리 가는길에 한낮동안 머물렀다감. 데스밸리 입구까지 한시간정도는 걸림. 주인같은 분이 체크인 받아주는데 친절함. 바로옆에 주유소 있어서 가득 채우고 가는걸 추천. 20시30분 까지하는데 외지라 그런지 조금 비쌈. 전화안터지니까 꼭 wifi로 지도 다운받아가기

Shoshone is a unique place right on the edge of Death Valley National Park. This little hotel is the place to stay if you’re planning a trip to the park. I was surprised how quiet and peaceful it is although it was around 120 degrees outside we were still able to walk around the town and explore. The hotel itself is clean and comfortable. We had a good nights rest before our trip to Death Valley.

Great shaded courtyard, great drinking water, ok Wi-fi signal..
. A true oasis in the Mojave desert.

Decent rooms but way overpriced, just like their Campground.

The rooms were a little small but very modern and clean....
Comfortable bed and pillows...
Ice cold air conditioning....
Slept like a baby..

Wonderfully updated and clean gem. Jennifer and Pam were wonderful. I will def stay here again when we visit the area.

Nice but expensive!

Lovely place to stay! They have a simple breakfast at 8am where you can meet many other people staying who are from all over the world. One suggestion would to include spf or something similar in the room.
