Mammoth Hot Springs Hotel


photos and tips

Yellowstone's Mammoth Hot Springs Hotel (photo below) is the hotel nearest to the north entrance of the Park, and was the original tourist stop, back in the days when visitors took a train to Gardiner, Montana, and then journeyed by stagecoach into Yellowstone. The hotel is near the beautiful Mammoth Hot Springs.


Mammoth Hot Springs has its share of history, and was, for example, home to the US Army when it was called in to protect the park. Read more about Mammoth Hot Springs Hotel at the National Parks site; or try Travel Yellowstone for visitors' info and history.
