Riverton Wyoming Hotels For Yellowstone Travelers

By Marla Mills


It's no big surprise that Riverton Wyoming hotels are almost always full up or close to it. It's mostly because of the fact that it is the main gateway city into Yellowstone National Park, and gets an enormous amount of thoroughfare. Not to mention the fact that it is the largest city in the middle of the massive half-million acre zone that was historically within the Wind River Indian Reservation.

The city's size and central location makes it an ideal base for a Wind River Country exploration. The fact that the Big Wind River flows by makes it that much more of an outdoor paradise for visitors. Finding a place to stay is very easy, and travelers can decide which hotel is best based on their itinerary.

The largest visitor group in Riverton at any given time is usually the bunch of park travelers on the way to or from Yellowstone. A lot of them are road-trippers enjoying what is arguably one among the top scenic routes in the United States. Some combine a visit to Yellowstone with other activities such as hot-air balloon rides and recreation at the Boysen Reservoir.

A traveler may arrive in Riverton on US-26 or State Hwy 789 and check in quickly and easily into the hotels lined up along the routes leading in and out of the main city area. One large group of establishments can be found on East and West Main Street. The other one is bunched up along N. Federal Boulevard. Both sets of locations are equally convenient for those who are already in the city, because the two routes intersect in the city center.

These hotels are ideal for travelers on an overnight stop, and for those staying for a couple of days while they explore the region's natural beauty and attractions. Most hotels are family-friendly, and offer connecting rooms and other facilities and amenities that couples with children will find useful. Pets are usually allowed to stay with guests in their rooms. However, it's better to check beforehand while booking the stay.

Guests will find everything from cable television and in-room telephones to Wi-Fi connectivity and swimming pools. Most also provide common use facilities such as parking lots for RVs and trailers, laundry service, and fitness centers. A diner or restaurant on the premises will provide room service, coffee/tea and continental breakfast for guests.

Some guests who are tourists may want to go sightseeing and visit all the famed Wind Country attractions. The most popular tourist hotspot is the burial site of Sacajawea. The site is inside the Indian Reservation, and is easily accessible from the hotels. The casinos are another big draw. Thousands more come every year on specific dates for attending one of the many fairs and festivals that are held here annually.

The Riverton Wyoming hotels near the city center are ideal for all these visitors. They will have full access to business centers and meeting or conference rooms with audio-visual equipment. Regardless of the choice of hotel or its location, it's a good bet that the stay is likely to be comfortable and the trip highly memorable.
