A pleasant surprise.

This little hotel is an oasis on the doorstep of Mt. Rainier. The chamber has it going on, as the hotel is adjacent to the newly built dinner theater. The staff is friendly, the location is great and the rooms are clean, the location is quiet.

Best place in Yelm and for an hour around it.

this place was extremely comfortable and accommodating, and we really enjoyed our stay there. I only wish it was in Olympia not Yelm because we are not in Yelm very long. The quality of the room is such that driving out of the way to stay is worth it.

I chose this location as a halfway point between Mt Rainier NP and SeaTac and for that purpose, it worked out well. The property was clean and quiet. Check in was wonky though; I purchased through Expedia and when the check in guy mentioned I was a local, we figured out my information wasn’t correct. They didn’t have my information in the system and essentially had to re-enter my address, phone and email. And then when we got into the room, there was a card in the bed welcoming ‘David’ and neither myself nor my husband are named David. I can only assume David got a room with a card welcoming me. But checkin took 10 minutes longer than it should have. And please note that there is not a coffee maker in the room; they do have coffee available at all times just outside the lobby but it’s pretty standard. Don’t miss Bertoglios for pizza. And we did the 507 taproom and used the room card for 10% off.

We stayed two nights at the Prairie Hotel in a 3rd floor room with a view of Mt. Rainier. The room was very nice, clean and comfortable, and we slept well in the beds. The manager at the front desk was very helpful and gave us some excellent recommendations for restaurants and bicycle rentals (we were in town to ride the scenic Chehalis Western and Yelm-Tenino bike trails).

We loved our stay! The only thing I think would have made it an excellent stay is if there was coffee in the rooms.. even if it was instant 😁
