Great NEW and stylish hotel

Highly recommend!!! Our flight got cancelled and we had to find a place last minute. What a pleasant surprise Wandering Buffalo was. I wish we had stayed here initially. Brand new and renovated. Like a mid century modern ranch style hotel with the cutest details. Husband had to work the following morning in the lobby and enjoyed the coffee and amenities. Comfortable beds and cool outside fire pit. Within a mile to everything downtown Bozeman.

Very nice check in staff, and a very cute property. Parking is $20 a night, but I am not from the area so this might be normal. The blackout shade they have in the rooms is no joke which is a perk. Downtown is within walking distance so plenty to do.

Absolutely Awesome!

We absolutely loved the Wandering Buffalo! The vibe was awesome! They have a really cool and welcoming dog named Phoenix who welcomed us and made us feel at home. I loved the motif and the staff was awesome to talk to! We will be back!
