Taxidermy
While the taxidermy was of excellent quality, it disturbed me to see an elephant head and an entire rhino in the lobby. The cubs were disturbing, too.

The bed was very comfortable, the room very clean but at night I kept hearing the slamming of the doors of people coming and going into their rooms. It was one of the best hotels we have ever stayed in. Great continental breakfast. Friendly staff.

Good value
The lobby is a must see. The animals on display rival many a natural museum. Breakfast is great and access to downtown is great. If you have trouble with stairs be sure to ask for a down stairs room as there is no elevator.

Unique hotel
The lobby is very unique which our kids loved! Clean, spacious room! We loved everything except that we were awaken by alarm clock in the middle of night, which was probably set by the previous guest. It should be turned off during housekeeping for the new guest though. That's why I gave it 4 instead of 5.

Watch Out for Animals!!
If you love breakfasting with wild animals, this is the place for you! The entire lobby is full of mounted African animals---in fact navigating them can be a challenge. We found the room very clean and comfortable---nothing fancy. My husband loved the sausage gravy on biscuits for breakfast!!!

Kings inn cody wyoming.
Nice clean place to stay. Comes with continental breakfast. Only thing we didn't like is the fact that this hotel doesn't have an elevator. Hard to carry the luggage and other items up all the stairs if you get a room on the second floor. Pretty modern hotel and the animals displayed in the lobby are a nice touch.

Fun atmosphere
Hotel is in a good location on main strip. It's next to a Dollar Tree and a restaurant, Walmart is near. This was convenient. The lobby is cool-looking. Safari animals are all over it, which is fun for the kids and adults alike. Breakfast is very good. It would be nice to have waffles included, but I ate the toaster French toast which was very good. Lots of coffee and tea options and condiments. They have laundry facilities that were very convenient and inexpensive ($3 to wash AND dry). The pool is nice too. Staff was friendly, and the tv in the room was nice for watching the Olympics. Our room was near the top of the stairs, so noisy in the morning. Pizza from Millstone is really good and they have a gluten free option too. Attend the Buffalo Bill rodeo as well as the Buffalo Bill Center of the West. Both have AAA discounts and were fun to attend. The Center for the West is a HUGE museum (5 in one) and took all day. It was great and I strongly encourage going. Also, see the raptor show at the Center. It is wonderful! St. Anthony Catholic Church is nearby and welcoming on Sunday morning. You are about 1.5 hours from Yellowstone at this location if that is your destination. Stop at the dam on the way to Yellowstone. It's cool. The road to Yellowstone is really curvy and steep from this location. Great views, but a little dizzying to drive. I would recommend North (Gardiner, MT) or West Yellowstone if Yellowstone is the destination. Cody is a great destination in and of itself.

Housekeeping was SUPERB
We stayed here for 3 nights during a baseball tournament. The hotel rooms were quiet, roomy & clean. We easily had enough room to use a single inflatable mattress that we brought--2 teenage boys didn't want to share a bed! Beds were comfy. Housekeeping was excellent. The staff didn't just provide fresh towels, but actually cleaned the bathroom every day, vacuumed our room, made up our beds & emptied trash. We were on a bit of a weird schedule where we didn't get up & out right away, so even when she was done with the rest of the rooms on our floor, she came back & did ours every day. Breakfast, as other reviewers have mentioned, could be made so much better by just adding a waffle maker...but we did have yogurt, cereal, bread items, gravy, cut-up fruit every morning. Guest laundry on site. Pool area was nice & pretty clean. A/C in room worked great. Would recommend. BBQ place next door-easy walk for dinner! Walmart just up the road. There is no elevator-so if stairs are a problem, keep this in mind.

Nice hotel
Hotel close to everything in Cody, Wy. Staff was welcoming. Rooms were cleaning, newer and well kept. Lobby was the main interest for this hotel. Actual, African wild animals that the hotel owner has had 'taxidermy' and positioned around the main lobby. Fascinating for adult and children alike. Nice, clean pool area. Would recommend for every traveler.

Interesting decor
This is an average hotel. We stopped because it was one of the reasonably priced hotels still available as we traveled through the area. For some reason it is decorated in "Africian Safari" motif. The laundry area was a plus, the continental breakfast was one of the few we've encountered that was lacking in offerings, although the staff member working was doing a great job keeping it stocked.

Yellowstone Road Trip Home Base
Hotel staff was very friendly. The rooms were clean and the animals in the lobby were less cheesy than I thought they would be. The breakfast was free, but my only issue with the whole experience was there was very little set out for breakfast. No fruit or eggs or sausage, just biscuts and cereal and a couple carafes of coffee.

Not as I'd hoped based on website photos
3 of the lights in the room were burned out, and the ice machine was not working. The hotel is filled with exotic stuffed animals but is overpriced for amenities and not being a name brand hotel. Although complementary breakfast is served we opted to skip due to the extremely small area it is set up. When checking in we asked about a senior discount (62 y/o), and were told no, then when checking out the clerk over charged us and I had to get them to credit and do over.

We booked this hotel kind of last minute and were concerned about the quality. We were greeted with fresh baked cookies and a cool safari animal exhibit in the lobby. The room, pool, and breakfast were good.

wrong serengeti
If you are comfortable supporting an establishment that boasts big game hunting and proudly displays real stuffed endangered species, this place is for you. The amount of ivory carved and used for display was obscene. The staff was friendly but explained it all away as if it was ok. It is also incredibly handicapped inaccessible, though the clerk did find me a room on the first floor after they were going to put me on the second floor, no elevators. I had even requested first floor accessible.

Great find for Cody. Price was decent, and lots of thought goes into the caring for this hotel. Housekeeping was fast and great, beds comfortable, breakfast comparable to most continental breakfasts, and front desk helpful. We would stay here again for sure.

Amazing works of African Savana wildlife taxidermy
Had difficulty locating hotel using Garmin GPS. It made me overshoot the location by 1 mile, an empty site of sage brush on a steep hillside, had to backtrack and visually find it. Enjoyed photographing the stuffed critters.

Stuffed wild animals in lobby.
I did not like all the taxidermied animals in their lobby. I found it very disturbing especially the whole lion family(Cubs and all), & elephant tusks. I don't know if the owners hunted and killed these animals but if they did and put them on display like this I find it sad. Also we have to drag all our luggage, etc up stairs because they don't have an elevator. We also did not get the room we were supposed to because they were too busy to get our Hotels.com reservation in. They were pleasant enough and apologized. Breakfast did not have eggs, only biscuits & gravy.

Pleasantly surprised!
I travel weekly all around the U.S. for work so I have come to expect a level of comfort and competence from a hotel and its staff. This hotel did not disappoint. It was on par with the Fairfield inn or HI express style of hotels.

Clean but very dated, small bathroom and no elevator. The breakfast was very heavy on carbs and the bread items were dry, not much flavor.
