“Little things add up...”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 February 2012

person found this review helpful

The people at the hotel were friendly, however noone seems to care about the overall comfort and convenience of the guest.
1. wireless internet only works in parts of the hotel. If you happen to be further away from the front, you're out of luck.
2. The bar isn't open on Sundays... no way to get a drink on a sunday evening, and who doesn't like a drink on the first day of their vacation!?
3. The shower heads need to be replaced. The water feels like little pricks as it hits your skin.

I wouldn't choose to stay here again.

Room Tip: If you want wireless internet, as where the best rooms are. I have yet to find a good area of the ho...

“Great Overall Experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 February 2012

I live here in town and wanted to ''get away without getting away'' with my pregnant girlfriend. We chose Ramkota and im glad we did. First we had dinner at the seasons cafe, dinner was very nice and very filling, my only suggestion would have been a better beer menu. My girlfriend would tell you the best part was our huge whirlpool tub in our room. The bed was very comfortable and the room was very clean. We had a great nights rest, exactly what we needed. I f your from out of town, this is the ideal location, considering its closest to the kirkwood mall, and pretty close to Bismarcks night life scene.

“Beyond expectations...”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 February 2012

My mother and I recently stayed at the Best Western Ramkota, while my father was hospitalized. The management and staff went above and beyond to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Unfortunately, what should have been a one night stay, turned into a five night stay. They accommodated us by extending our stay on minute's notice and allowing my parent's dog to stay as well. It can be so difficult to find a pet-friendly hotel!! We have always and will always choose the Best Western Ramkota...

Thanks so much for your comments! We appreciate your loyalty to the Ramkota Hotel. I am also happy to hear that we were able to accommodate your extended stay during your father's hospital stay - hopefully he is doing better now and you will be able to visit us again soon under better circumstances! Thank you again for your business and your review, both are truly appreciated.

“Very convenient to shopping, balcony overlooking pool was nice”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 December 2011 via mobile

Had requested ground floor room as we have a small dog, ended up on 3rd floor which turned out ok as we enjoyed the balcony overlooking the pool. It was noisy at times but it was a weekend so there was a lot of kids around. Room was very clean and parking convenient. Lots of chain restaurants nearby.

“Awesome location and extremely comfortable stay!”

people found this review helpful

The location of this hotel is excellent! Right next to a big mall and a scheels! Also next to Captain Jack's liquor store, Buffalo Wild Wings, Qdoba, Starbucks, and many other great restaurants and entertainment. The hotel itself is excellent! It has a indoor water park, restaurant and bar, and its rooms are cozy with excellent showers and beds!

Room Tip: We stayed in a room with king beds and they were extremely comfortable!
