At THE Old Faithful Lodge?
That place is way cool. I would love to stay there.
Most of the older national parks have great old historic hotels, and that one's at or near the top of the list. Yellowstone might be the only park with more than one, as there's also a great old lodge at Mammoth Hot Springs and another at Yellowstone Lake. But Old Faithful is the oldest and best in my opinion.
I've only been able to book one on premise national park hotel, in Shenandoah, and that was terrific. Most of them sell out way, way in advance for the summer vacation season.
by the way, on that route you of course have to go to Wall Drug and the Corn Palace. It's not an option, it's state law.
Speaking of great old historic hotels and the Black Hills, there's one in Custer State Park also.
