The property was lovely. Julia was very friendly and helpful. The only disappointment was lack of free shuttle to the airport! Some sites indicated this service was available.
I will definitely be back! I loved where the hotel was located downtown. The hotel staff was amazing, a special shout out to the valet attendants. My hotel room was clean and so comfortable!
We chose to stay at Alex Johnson because of hits historic nature, and were pleased by the way it has been maintained and upgraded. It was also extremely convienient for walking around the uptown. The rooftop skybar (Vertext) is also a plus. We did not eat there because the menu was somewhat limited and a bit pricey, but we did enjoy having drinks there on the outdoor patio one evening.
Sorry Rapid City… but this hotel was much better than I expected in Rapid City. Rooftop bar was nice, main floor pub was great, and the rooms were super clean. Two thumbs up!!
Centrally located and very convenient. Quirky old hotel with a friendly staff and nice amenities. I would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Mt. Rushmore, Badlands National Park, Custer State Park, or any of the other attractions in the area!
The staff member behind the front desk helped us with where to park our car over our stay. We also got room service for our night meal from the restaurant located inside the hotel and the food was wonderful. The gentleman who brought our food to our room was very professional. Everything about our stay was perfect.
Thanks.....................
The hotel was beautiful and centrally located. The only negative was the parking situation. We were able to secure spots on the street but it would have been nice to have parking included in the rate.
Lovely hotel with pleasant staff. Nice bar on top. Rooms are small but it’s what you would expect with a historic hotel. Very comfortable bed. Enjoyable stay.

Check in was late, its a very old hotel but it is in a good location for walking, although would not recommend walking at night
The room was great, the bathroom was a little small, if it was more than me, it would have been a challenge. Love the plugs and night stands on each side of the bed for the tech and water. The bed and bedding were great. The only thing I wish I knew was don't stay on the side with the alley, the garage trucks come early morning and make a bunch of noise, I was on the fifth floor and could hear everything, I can image the noise on the lower floors
The hotel has been modernized- yet it has kept its historic ambience. The front desk staff was very helpful. The housekeeping staff missed a lot of details- but the front staff came through. The bar on the roof was fabulous! The location was excellent - Steps to Main Street restaurants and the many statue of all our presidents. The elevators are state of the art and take a little getting used to.
