Stayed one night. Check was easy and the clerk was helpful and courteous. The room was clean and I love the retro vibe. Hat hot coffee in the lobby the next morning. Plan on staying here again on my next trip to Bozeman in October.

Retro Well-Done
We just stayed one night but it was a good stay. The hotel has a nice 1950s retro theme and everything was clean.

While this motel has be remodeled, it still has quiet room amenities that are subpar. The air is an old window unit that is very noisy, the water in the shower would constantly go from hot to cold, the shower door was not sealed properly so the floor was covered in water after a shower and there is no in room safe. The bed was comfortable and the staff was very friendly. Hotel rooms in Bozeman are very expensive. But I did not feel this motel offered value for the high price we paid. Probably would not stay here again.

The Sapphire was, pun intended, a gem. This property is a completed redone model of a motel that has been in the same family for roughly 60 years. The room itself was very spacious, as was the bathroom. The bed was very comfortable, the shower was great, and with the car right out front, the unloading and loading was very convenient. The only thing missing was breakfast, but that wasn't expected. For a completely updated retro experience, I highly recommend this motel.

Loved the old fashioned decor. Bed was comfortable. Room was spotless. However just like the old hotels, the walls are paper thin. The guests next to us must have been doing gymnastics and dancing to music till after midnight. We pounded on the walls and they finally settled down

Loved our stay at this amazing retro hotel! Great outdoor spaces to relax or to enjoy a bbq. Kitchen to use next to the reception area. Conveniently located and the staff are all exceptional!
