Great location for visiting the east side of Glacier National Park. It's so hard to find accommodations unless one books them super early, so we were really glad to find this basic motel. It's a lot cheaper than staying at the Park although not that cheap overall.
Great stay for us near Many Glacier. Clean and well maintained space. A little off the beaten path for sure, but staff and vibe made us feel at ease. Would come back here
This was my second time staying here and I would definitely stay here again. The rooms are very clean and the location is lovely. It was very convenient for us to get into Many Glacier for early hikes. The staff is very friendly. Sometimes guests chat outside at the Gazebo.
No cell service. They have wifi but it’s spotty so plan to be off the grid. No TV. This was fine for us as we just needed a place to sleep but it would be nice if the wifi was more reliable.
This is a peculiar little place. Pro's are very clean, refrig w/small freezer area, nice shower. Con's are no ice machine, no TV, 10 miles from town. A little concerning about location when we arrived because it was so remote but place was almost full before end of evening.
Clean, quiet, remodeled basic room. Beds were comfortable. Wifi available but no t.v. Desk clerk was friendly and knowledgeable about the area. This hotel was off the beaten path probably about 6 miles out of town the last 3 miles down a
graveled road. Defenatly a hidaway.
Staff was extremely friendly and helpful and room was very clean and well-maintained, but room had some major design flaws (bathroom barn door that was extremely challenging to slide/lock/close completely, no bathroom counter surface, no TV, no AC).
This place is way off the beaten path which is fine by me. There is nothing around it so eat before you go there. It was clean, the staff was friendly and helpful. It is very basic but has nice beds, is clean and the shower works well.
This hotel is not near much. We stayed here to be near Many Glacier. There was no tv but you do get wifi. You get a fan instead of air conditioning. It was manageable. Everything else was good.
This is a great place to stay in East Glacier. I was pleasantly surprised to find the room had a small fridge and coffee pot.
You drive down a long gravel street to get to it; but it has a pretty view with horses close by and the mountains. The only complaint is that the room gets a little warm especially after showering because there is no air. Just a fan in the room and a screen on the window that faces the hallway so there’s no privacy if you open the curtains for air flow.
We traveled here while wanting to hike in Glacier NP. We didn’t expect to spend much time at Hook’s….it was a place to sleep. That said, they were friendly and willing to adjust our stay dates by a day. The rooms are adequate. Wi-Fi was often unavailable or dropped a lot. No Cell service. The location is about 3 miles off the highway on a gravel road. Be aware that everything in the general area is very expensive because of location.Rooms were clean, decor simple. Would only stay here if other ‘close to Glacier’ options were not available.
Room was clean and quiet. Bed was very comfortable. Small modular building, 15 rooms, miles away from town. Arrived late so did not see any staff and office was not open when we left. The only real drawback was not knowing about the pipeline construction next door. However, we did see a buffalo on the 3 mi gravel road to the hideaway. Dinner at Cattle Baron Supper Club in Babb was very good.
So my wife and kids were afraid of being out so far in the country due to the movies they have watched in the past, but they quickly experienced that it was a very safe and well-managed property. It is totally worth staying there when everything else is booked. It is very clean, organized, has great use of the space. The motel made it possible for us to enter and exit Many Glacier park for a couple of days. Just be sure to watch out for the moose and Elk as you drive back and forth. We had three encounters with animals and two were very close calls. Be sure to not drive too fast.
Thank you for a wonderful stay near Babb. It was fun to go out into the country side and see St. Mary's River running nearby. Would love to come back soon : )
Renovated motel with horrible location and access. No AC, NO PHONE service, no microwave. Wouldn't stay again or recommend. No ice machine, no food availability.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Convenient to the east gate of Glacier Park about 35-minutes partly a gravel road. Rustic remote but quiet and clean. Tight quarters water closet, vanity and shower but nice shower with Limited electrical outlets and dim lighting, dark. No vanity work space for toiletries, no lighting for wall mirror, no hairdryer.
It was a spur of a moment decision to visit Glacier National Park and over $250 per night two seniors, no breakfast included. Obviously limited vacancies in the area and high tourist season.

This property is in the middle of nowhere, it was miles on a gravel road to locate. Once we arrived it looked like a double-wide trailer, we did not stay, we left.
