Top Thunder Spring Hotel Reviews

Tamarack Lodge Sun Valley

8/10 Good

"Spacious room. Was pretty clean. Location in downtown Ketchum was perfect. Bikes at the hotel were nice to go and check out their wood river belt. We didn’t care for the beds. Not very comfortable which is a personal preference But it was very noisy. Lots a road noise and business noise early in the am. Make sure you bring a fan to try and drown out the noise. Otherwise staff were very helpful and nice and room was very spacious"

Best Western Plus Kentwood Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Reasonable room rate. Nicely maintained property with a western rustic vibe. No breakfast but the Wraps place is right next door and The famous Kneadery is only a couple of blocks away. Well worth the 5 minute walk. Right across from the Appellation Hotel construcion project so there is noise during the day but convenient if you are in town for that project. Limelight Lodge across the street has a great happy hour on the patio."

Wood River Inn & Suites

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in a great location at the North end of Hailey and the property is in good condition. The rooms are clean, the pool area is nice and the gym is small but has good equipment. All in all the facility is very nice. I didn't get to interact with the staff much as at check-in I was directed to an iPad to input my information at check in. Very different from past experiences at the hotel. Not bad just not the personal interaction that I have had in the past. Breakfast was good but a little awkward with the Covid era plexiglass up between the server and the guest."
