This is a clean no thrills hotel in Fall City, SD. The hotel is managed by the owners. They are pleasant and efficient At 3:45 pm the office opens and processing starts. The hotel is .2-.3 miles from the commercial center and across the streeet from a grocery/liquor store. The rooms are clean, but small. A box air conditioner is used. There is no breakfast, but coffee is available after 7:30am. There is a small pool and some picnic benches in a grassy area. In short, this is a hotel that has pluses and some minuses … my impression is that they are making an effort and fine tuning it. This is not a luxury destination, but you can get your zzzzs in and do the activities you came to do, but be aware of the limits here.

Remodeled and updated is SO cute. Rooms are very well done with colors and surfaces in addition to maintaining some charm of original hardware. Price was good. Onsight owners were available and friendly. We have stayed at other corporate owned hotels in Hill City and The Lantern Inn was like finding a little gem

Been staying here for many, many years and the place consistently meets our expectations and delivers exceptional clean rooms, caring and accommodating owners and staff, and is just a 10 min walk from shoppes and restaurants.

Amazing place with amazing owners!!! Super nice people own this place and helped us out immensely with downloading maps and learning the trails in the area. They offered great recommendations on food and provided us with a great memory filled weekend that has us wanting to plan another trip to stay there again.

The room was clean and smelled great! There were plenty of towels. The beds were comfy!! The owners were SO nice! I got an email a few days before our stay telling us to have a safe trip! It was within walking distance to downtown shops and restaurants. It was just an all round nice place!

A very comfortable and relaxed place to stay in Hill City. Great location for any activity you want to see/do in the Black Hills. The rooms were neat and clean and I loved the charging port on the night stand. The owners are wonderful and full of great information about the area. You will feel like a part of the family when you stay here.
