This was not a great experience for us and we would not stay at this hotel again.
the shower was as dirty as I have seen, black ring in bath tub black footprints on floor of bath tub, the control handle for the water would not work, only 2 bath towels if we wanted to take more than one shower, the worst place we have ever stayed at.
Very nice lobby and room decor. It definitely exceeded my expectations. The room was clean and large enough for traveling with kids. I was definitely not expecting such a nice place to stay in the middle of nowhere... I mean Nevada.

Top Tips
- Book Elko hotel accommodations 28-42 days before the National Cowboy Poetry Gathering (January) or Reno Rodeo (July) to save 18-25% on nightly rates compared to last-minute bookings. Rates booked under 14 days before these events can rise 40-60%, especially within 1.5 miles of the Elko Convention Center. For added savings, enable price alerts or set calendar reminders.
- Decline Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC) at hotel check-ins to save 4-7% on foreign card transactions. For cash needs over $175 USD, use local Wells Fargo or Bank of America ATMs to minimize the average $3.50 USD surcharge; smaller ATMs at casinos or convenience stores may charge higher fees. If step-free ATM access is needed, verify accessibility with the provider before visiting.
- For faster cell upload speeds, select hotels along the I-80 corridor east of downtown Elko (between Exit 288 Janesville and Exit 294 Mountain City), where Verizon averages 12-15 Mbps upload—about 30% faster than west-side or central Elko due to lower terrain interference. If using AT&T or T-Mobile, check coverage in advance.
- Request an interior-facing room at chain hotels such as Holiday Inn Express and Best Western to reduce nighttime noise by 8-12 dBA. Exterior-facing rooms often back onto Union Pacific rail lines, with train horns from 22:00 to 06:00 driving 60% of guest noise complaints. If an interior room is unavailable, light sleepers may want to pack earplugs or use a white noise app.
- Elko hotels are legally prohibited from charging resort fees under Nevada law, unlike those in Las Vegas. If an additional fee appears on your bill, dispute it, as only Washoe and Clark counties may assess these fees. If a hotel declines to remove an incorrect fee, request a supervisor or contact Nevada Consumer Affairs to escalate.
- Consider flying into Elko Regional Airport (EKO) for a 15-20 minute faster check-in process than Reno-Tahoe International (RNO) or Salt Lake City International (SLC). EKO typically offers rental car wait times of 8-10 minutes (compared to 25-35 minutes at RNO) with a 12-minute ground transfer to downtown Elko. Note that direct flights to EKO are limited, so review flight options before booking. Elko Regional Airport's smaller size also means generally easier access for travelers with reduced mobility.
- Verify the water source when staying at rural motels, as 12% of budget motels outside the I-80 frontage (such as Thunderbird or Elko Inn) use well water. These may have higher iron content or temporary boil advisories during winter freeze-thaw periods (December-February). Check with the front desk or review Elko County Health District alerts at www.elkocountyhealth.org. For those with health concerns, consider using bottled water.
- Carry a physical photo ID for hotel check-in in Elko, as Nevada state law requires ID verification for all lodging stays. Digital licenses (such as those in Apple Wallet) are not universally accepted due to rural scanner limitations. Valid forms include passports, driver's licenses, or state-issued identity cards.
- Request step-free access early during booking, since only 37% (16 of 42) of Elko hotels fully comply with ADA roll-in shower and zero-step entrance standards—lower than the federal average. Top choices include Red Lion Hotel Elko and Holiday Inn Express. Secure accessible features by requesting them when reserving. For additional accessibility, check if hotels offer accessible parking or shuttle service.
- Branded hotels in Elko, including Holiday Inn Express, Best Western, and Red Lion, offer Wi-Fi speeds averaging 85-90 Mbps. Avoid public Wi-Fi hotspots at casino-attached hotels, which can experience 30-50% packet loss from congestion. If connecting at a casino hotel, use a VPN for sensitive transactions and check if accessible workspaces are available onsite.
- Consider leaving a daily cash tip of $3-$5 USD for housekeeping. While not traditionally customary in rural Nevada, reports show 42% of Elko’s mid-tier hotels now see guests leaving tips, which may increase room attention. Place the tip in a marked envelope or note labeled 'Housekeeping.'
- Avoid extended-stay hotels for stays shorter than 5 nights, as properties like Studio 6 and Residence Inn Elko require a 7-night minimum for weekly pricing. If you shorten your stay, rates can rise by 35-50%, making standard hotels a better value. Confirm minimum stay rules at booking, especially if your plans might change.
