Town Hall Inn

Town Hall Inn

8/10 Good
"Pros: easy check-in process, nicely renovated 1912 building, very high ceilings, nice antiques in the rooms and common area, convenient walking distance to shops and restaurants (the Sanford Lab Homestake Visitor Center is close by and definitely worth a visit!). Con: our room was the Judge’s Chamber on the second floor and it faced Main Street. The street was maybe 25’ from our window. Main Street is one lane each direction with parking on each side. The speed limit is maybe 25 mph. We were there on a Friday and Saturday and there was significant traffic noise from work trucks, groups of side-by-sides heading out on tours, Harley Davidson groups rumbling past, etc. It died down around 6:00 pm or so, but it was fairly constant through the day. Yes, we were gone much of the day doing our own sightseeing, but we were in the room enough to definitely notice it. Next time we’d ask for a room that was as far as possible from Main Street."

"Room was clean and comfortable, and the rustic lounge was welcoming and enjoyable. Excellent coffee in the morning is free to guests. Food options are limited, and the one restaurant across the street served very good food, but was quite expensive. Driving to the town of Spearfish isn't a practical option, especially navigating the canyon after dark."
