“Great job”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 December 2011

So last trip to Ketchum for business I mistakenly stayed at the other Best Western in town, the Tyrolean Lodge. That place give Best Western brand a bad name but this one, the Kentwood? The live up to and even surpass other Best Western properties I have used. Very clean, convenient as well as friendly staff. The covered parking is nice too. My room was lodge-style, as I am sure they all are, and clean. I like they had sanitized tv remotes, something I usually do myself on arrival. Would be nice to have hi-def tv but I am sure that is coming. Will definitely stay here again next trip up.

Thank you for noticing! and for the great compliment. Now that the snow has come, the covered parking is even nicer to enjoy,we're glad you got to use this amenity. We have been a part of the Ultra Clean program thru Best Western,a designation that only 6.5% of hotels in North America can say. The sanitized remotes,bathroom,blankets and deep cleaning of the rooms is a small part of the program which we feel is very important,especially to our guests. Our Housekeeping and Maintenance staffs have received Excellent awards from Best Western repeatedly. And yes,new tv's are on the list to upgrade this next year. We look forward to your next stay.

“Reasonable priced wonderful hotel.”

Great really clean place right in the heart of Ketchum.
Easy access to everything. They upgraded us to the biggest room, with a king bed, fireplace and kitchen. Very very clean, even the blanket on the bed was clean, the remote in a "fresh" cloth, duvet cover, down quilt. Nice and comfortable for a reasonable price. Wrapcity breakfast spot connected to the building.

Thank you for being spot on! You have simply said it so well. We appreciate you as our guest and thank you for your genuine review. We are glad you noticed the nice upgrade and how well the staff has cleaned for you and our guests. Best Western has awarded us with our 5th Chairman's Award in a row recently,keeping us in the top 5% of all Best Westerns partly due to this. Thank you once again.

“Great place in the heart of town!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 November 2011

We have stayed at this hotel multiple times on our visits to the Ketchum/Sun Valley area. The rooms are clean, very nice and you are within walking distance of shopping and restaurants. The staff has always been pleasant and willing to accommodate. Parking is adequate and the rates are average. The only negative we found is that they do not allow pets.

Room Tip: Choose an upper floor with a balcony facing the main street for the best view!

“Very nice place to stay in Sun Valley”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 November 2011

We attended a wedding in Sun Valley and stayed at this lodge for 2 nights.

It is right along the main strip, so very handy...easy to walk anywhere in town.

Rooms are very nice, very clean and modern.

The lodge itself does not have a restaurant, but you can get a discount at the restaurant right beside it, where they serve wraps. There is a pool on site, business center, parking outside and inside as well.

Room Tip: Our friends stayed in a suite with a kitchen so if you have a family, this lodge would suit that pur...

Thank you for your very nice review :) All our rooms have a sm microwave/refridge and bar sink area for your needs and the Kitchen suites have these in a larger fashion with in an extension from the room, also having a table/4 chairs and a fireplace. Thank you for mentioning it too. Wrap City cafe is a local favorite and we hope you were able to enjoy them also. Hope to see you again.

“Among the best”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 October 2011

One of the best Best Westerns and can match any other Chains best. However it has two glaring weaknesses. There is NO continental breakfast. This has become an industry STANDARD and this place needs to keep pace. The other problem is the the WHITE towels. They are not white they are yellow white. Either they need to be replaced of bleached.

Thank you for your compliment of being one of the best,we appreciate this. We have been awarded by Best Western with 3 of their "Best of the Best" awards even. Having Wrap City Cafe on our premise,we do support them. They offer our guests a discount for breakfast and are a guest and local favorite. We have also contacted the manufacturer for our towels and they have taken the yellowish towels back that were being stubborn. Thanks for your help in this arena.
We try our best,for our guests :)
